I'm trying to create a nav bar that uses AS easing. For some reason, that I can't figure out, the mouce has a lead on the moving object the further from the center it gets.

here is my code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = -160;
_y = 16;
speed = 5;
[Code].....
I have a front menu with about 6 different movieclip 'buttons' that are linked to different scenes. What I want is when the mouse get within a certain range of the menu items they will ease towards it as if it were magnetic, but the menu item is attached with a spring to the back, and it will somewhat follow the mouse around, until the mouse leaves that range and the menu item eases back into place.
Also, these same menu items, I want them to be blurred when the mouse isnt near them, and the closer the mouse gets, the clearer they appear (so if the items are set up as 2 up by 3 across, and the mouse is at the far left, the items will decrease in clarity from the left across, but if the mouse is in the middle, the middle items will be clear, but the side ones will be equally blurred).
I looked at the 'mouse follow with easing' tutorial. http:[url]....how to restrict it to one axis and set boundaries. I only want it to move along the x-axis.
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;
speed = 5;
}
i have a script for my project that exactly does what i want but the only thing missing is i want it to follow the path with ease . that i couldn't figure out. here is the code you can copy and past it on the first frame of a flash project and it will work:
var s = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("circle", 10);
s._x = 250;
s._y = 200;

I'm trying to scroll an MC based on X mouse position and ease it into it's final position as it reaches the edges.
View 1 RepliesI have this box which is a MC and it is called "orangebox". Now I want this box to follow my mouse, but only over a certain region. I put a rectanlge MC over the area I want the box to follow. On that rectange I put this code...
PHP Code:
on (rollOver) {
startDrag("_root.orangebox", true, 60, 362, 742, 362);
}
That works fine and dandy, but I want it to ease when it follows, not stay on the mouse. I think it will give it a cooler look. The code Kirupa has for ease is...

i have been trying to figure out how to make an object move when its moused over.
once moused over, i would like for it to move with an ease (penner), but once the mouse is off the object, i would like it to ease into a dock position.
[Code]...
I'm trying to make it ease to the spot but it doens't seem like there is a way.
It is jumpy, i would like to it to slowly smooth to the current mouse location. It's going to be used for a touch screen
Heres my current AS:
Code:
stop()
face.onRollOver = function(){
startDrag("mouseTarget", true);

Essentially what I'm trying to do is nearly the same as this: http:[url].......However I'd like to ease/tween the movieclip position and rotation to the mouse position.The main issue I see is trying to get the current movieclip rotation and the target rotation,then tween it cockwise or counterclockwise from current to target.The way a movieclips rotation uses positive and negative numbers throws it off.If you just want to lock the mc rotation to the mouse rotation its fine, but once you try to tween it you run into difficulties. So the end effect would be like if you were to draw imaginary clockwise circles around the object, it should just keep rotating clockwise towards the mouse. Then if you started going counter clockwise it should just keep easing counter clockwise to the mouse.
View 1 Replies[URL]I need to modify it slightly so that when the user moves the mouse OUTSIDE the flash movie (i.e. in the HTML bits), the circle returns to a specified x,y coordinate in the flash movie. Lets say for arguments sake (25,25).

Only problem now is that the image is in the background, and you can see the edges as the image moves too far down!
Is there any way to have the image follow the mouse but only within a certain region, say the image will only follow the mouse if it is within a 100px high area?
The code I'm using is
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_y = 0;
speed = 5;

I only want the image to move up and down, not all around.

View 3 RepliesI have an MC that contains a menu. Within the menu MC I have a little arrow movie clip that I would like to ease to the mouse position when clicked. I have this code on the little arrow, copied from many easing tutorials:
[Code]....
Also, I want the arrow MC to start at a particular place. But when I put _y = 30 (for example, which is where I would want it to start from) it is still at 0,0 - even when I change _y to this._y. What the heck?
I need to set a mouse-controlled scrolling animation to ease when it starts and when it stops in AS2. Here's my current onEnterFrame script. Might be a little crude, but it succeeds in starting and stopping the animation when the mouse rolls off the movie. Moves left on one side and right on the other. I just want the starting and stopping to be eased a bit.

Does anyone know what I can do to change the claudio scroller so that it will scroll ease depending on the vertical mouse position?
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to increase the ease in and ease out effect? It will only let you choose -100 to 100, and I've messed around with the length of the tween, and the FPS of the movie, but I want the acceleration to be greater.
View 7 RepliesI have a simple motion tween from fr 1 - 52 (x and y property movement only). I create a custom ease - standard 100 ease in and then a 100 ease out. When this ease is applied to the motion, the ease "happens" after fr 52. So the object does not stop until fr 63 (eased out at 63. How can I get the ease to match / ease out to the last keyframe on 52, rather than 63??? See the attached image of the motion editor.
View 1 RepliesI have a mutli-swf project where it makes a lot of sense to exclude the core set of classes from SWFs that will be loaded later in the program flow.I do this using the "excludeXml" option of the mxmlc compiler.It "appears" to work like a charm, BUT
on IE6/IE7 on Windows, I consistently get VerifyError #1014 when loading the SWFs that were compiled with this option. Oddly, not when cache has been cleared, but otherwise every time.
I have a flash project with about 3500 items - mostly containing movie clips with linkage. The SWF acts as an external library. I publish the SWF file under AS3 + FP9 (also tried FP10) and when I tried to access the items using
var _proAD:ApplicationDoman = loadEvent.target.applicationDomain;
var profileClass:Class = _proAD.getDefinition(item) as Class;var sprite:Sprite = new profileClass();
but all returned null! (after looping through them) - I traced the item's name in the output and they all matched exactly correctly.After a while, I managed to narrow down the problem which leads me to think it's a newly introduced bug in Flash CS5.
Test1: Deleted 500 items from the project, and it worked - all items returned non-null when using the code above. Also tried deleting a different range of 500 items instead of the first 500 - which also worked. This test confirms that all items were not courrpted.
Conclusion: Flash CS5 is unable to successfully publish a project containing over 3500 items in the library. The resulting SWF file size was about 500KB - which indicates it contains something, but still was unable to access the items.
Test2: From CS5, saved the project as CS4 format and opened it with Flash CS4. Published it (via CS4), and it worked. All items returned non-null. Great. However, when I added 500 more items (total of 4000) - it failed both on CS4 and CS5.The publish only takes about 10 seconds. Not very long..
So I have a 5 minute animation that has narration to explain what is going on. First I ran into synching problems when I had the sound as an external file. Today I found a tutorial that had me import the mp3 file into the library, put it on its own layer and put the synch setting in properties to "stream". Now when I play the movie in flash the audio still sounds normal but when I test or publish the movie the sound quality goes so far down it's intolerable. She sounds like Yosemite Sam with all the Suffering Suckatash. This is pretty urgent, my graduation next week pretty much depends on this project.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to lose events, or somehow corrupt the event cue, by button mashing? Our buttonPress function calls dispatchEvent, which starts an animation. The last frame of the animation also calls dispatchEvent. After about 20 fast clicks on a button, the animation runs as it should, but the last frame seems to not call dispatchEvent,because the addEventListener function is not called.My hunch is that the last frame did call dispatchEvent, but somehow the event was lost due to the constant button spamming sending other events.
View 0 Replies(Flex 3) I have a TextArea component which needs to hold the user's clipboard content. The TextArea does the job relatively well for most cases but when pasting a large amount of data, I can't seem to get the content in the component at all due to the script execution timeout.
I've done a fair deal on investigation to try and hopefully find how I could make this work. I found that the TextArea is using a IUITextField (which is in my case an instance of TextField at runtime) do handle the job of obtaining the pasting data and then throws an event when it is done.
I have found no way to take a look at the source of TextField as it is a class in the playerglobal.swc library.
Is there a way for me to maybe see the source of that class or is there something I'm missing in my approach to figure out a way to make this work?
I'm trying to get a prototype working for a website.
What I would like to do is have five buttons at the bottom of my stage, and when I click them, an image fades AND eases in. I have this part finished so far, but the issue is that when I click another button, I want the previous image to fade/ease out before the next one fades/eases in.
Here is my code:
Code: Select all
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;

I have been wondering how to do advanced ease in and out between three frames. What I have been trying to figure out, is when using the new tween function in cs4. So what I do is i make a simple animation of a ball going from point a to point b, and apply a ease in and ease out.
now with that in place the animation works great.now if i want to make the ball go to point c with and ease in and ease out. the ease in and ease out is now applied to the whole animation intead of being able to have 2 seperate ease in and ease out for animation from point a to point b, then animation from point b to point c.
is there anyway to make it so that i can multiple ease in and ease out for these frames?
i have a mapMC on the stage and 6 buttons. i need to be able to make the buttons move the mapMC to specified coordinates. the coordinates are set and will never change. i also need an easing from one location to the next. i guess i'll go ahead and throw in a bonus question for any of you aces out there. lets say location "A" is at x=200, y=400. i would like the mapMC to get there and scale 120%. so a button that gets pressed will go to its coordinates and scale acordingly. i can see that this could be script heavy, but for some reason not too difficult.

View 1 Replieson a project in Flash CS4 for Windows. I have an object on a layer that moves separately at different times of the animation (all one large motion tween). I'm attempting to apply an ease to just one leg of that motion, but instead, when I choose an ease setting in the motion editor, the ease is applied to the entire tween (so it affects the stationary frames too!). Is there a way to apply an ease to a single span of motion instead of the entire motion tween?Alternatively (if it's not possible), is there an easy workflow for breaking-up a motion tween in to separate motion tweens while maintaining the position of the object in between the motion tweens? (I don't want to use the frame-by-frame animation conversion option I've seen.)
View 1 RepliesI've been using animation applications for about 20 years now and, for whatever reason, Flash CS5's ease in/out feature has got me stumped.
I have a simple text Movieclip that comes from the left, off stage, and moves to the right onto the stage and stops. I want to ease it so it slows down to a stop.
I'm using Flash CS5 with the new tween.
When I click on the tween in the timeline, the ease property in the Properties Inspector doesn't give me what I want. If I put 100, it comes in and stops hard. If I give it a -100, it slowly accelerates to full speed and then stops suddenly.
I've read the tutorial for the new Motion Editor in Flash and it doesn't work like any other motion editor I've used, including Adobe's own After Effects. Normally, you would just click on the graph's line and then curve it with a pen tool or right-click on select bezier...
I'm creating a thermometer with the mercury animated as donations come in. I haven't touched flash in a long time, so be gentle.
How can I change the code below so the animation is faster without increasing the framerate?
var maxMercuryHeight = 192; // Mercury height at 100%
var currentDonations = 80; // Percentage of donations taken
var currentHeight = (currentDonations / 100) * maxMercuryHeight;

How can I make the animation ease out so it starts fast and slows down at the end?
Im trying to get this code to work ... The idea is the when I press the "w" key, the MC will move up Y_axis and when I release the "w" key the MC eases a little bit further
