Basically I wanna remove my mc "ball" when you press the left arrow key. I've tried stuff like
Code:
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
ball._x -= 1;
}
Some reason gives me like, "needs clip events"
in this image orange arrow i want to move left-right. and up-down
View 5 Repliesi want a my_mc to move when i press the < LEFT> arrow but also to fire and onEnterFrame event so it will move.. and also to delete the onEnterFrame when the key is not pressed so the onENterFrame is not going on in the background
View 4 Repliesi'm attempting to make a platform game, i know how to move left and right with the arrow keys, but that's quite boring. i want to move my character based only on the x movement of my mouse. the more i move my mouse in a certain direction, the faster the character moves in that direction. i've been trying to modify the x-speed on my character based on a x value of the mouse, but nothing is working.
preferably, i want a code that keeps my cursor at the center of the screen, while still being able to detect x movements of the mouse. i'd copy paste code from my program, but i'm fairly confident that doing so will serve no purpose. i need a new direction. i have no idea how to do this.
I've attached a file which makes a ball move to the left when pressing the right arrow key.[code]On a Key.RIGHT it goes through a for loop. Shifting the ball 200 times 1 pixel to the left. Every iteration it tests for a hit with coordinates 100/50 (indicated by the red crosshairs). If there's no hit it moves 1 pixel to the left. If there is a hit it stops moving (no ball._x--).Funny thing is: while it eventually finds a hit, it does a final For Loop. Even though it should find a hit during that last loop when the ball is passing the crosshairs, it doesn't and moves the ball a final time 200 times 1 pixel to the left. Ending up with below image.URL...Why doesn't it find a 'hit' for that final For Loop while it's clearly passing it?
View 5 RepliesThis actionscript 2 for moving a movieclip on stage in actionscript 2 .I would like to know what is the syntax in actionscript 3 .
movieclip.onEnterFrame = function(){
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this._x -= 5;
}
}
cheers im new to actionscript 3 but nknow i need to make the change now.
To move the MC, using arrow keys I used the following and it worked:
var timer:Timer;
var direct:String;
initStage();
[Code].....
I tried to convert this to use my onstage buttons: up_btn, down_btn, left_btn, right_btn to move MC box but couldn't figure it out.
I have an oversized moveclip which i will place on the stage.When flash swf is running, I would like to move the movieclip left, right, up or down when i mousedown. Just like the "MOVE" tool in photoshop.
View 1 Repliesim trying to get a movieclip to move by pushing either the left or right button, and then when the enter button is pushed i want the mc to keep moving but it seems to stay still. this is what ive got so far:
ActionScript Code:
mcBoat.onEnterFrame = function()
{
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) )
[Code].....
it keeps moving if the enter button is pushed and then pushing an arrow key but not the other way.
Im making a horizontal thumbnail-scroller. Thumbnails are loaded in to a MovieClip and placed side-by-side with some spacing.When I move the mouse to the far right of the stage, the last thumbnail is to the far right on the stage, and when I move the mouse to the left, the movieClip.x = 0.
I can do this and have a script ready. BUT: If I would like the first thumb to be at 0 when my mouse is 100px from the left side and the last thumb to be to the far right of the screen when my mouse is 100px from the right side, how would I make this happend?I've spent $30 on scripts from activeden and 5 hours on trying to make this happend, but I just CAN'T find the solution..
Code: Select allfunction moveScrollerThumbs(e:Event):void
{
if (mouseY > box.y && mouseY < box.y +box.height)[code]....
I have the following script in both frame 1 and 2 to let a movieclip move from right to left on the stage:
[Code]...
And the clip is indeed moving from right to left on the stage and when it reaches _x -550 it is going back to it's starting position _x 250 only the movement isn't smooth at all. What should I do to make the movement more smooth or should I use a completely different script?

I found this tutorial on kirupa about identifying keyboard and using them to navigate,however I cant seem to get it to work using (shift) and left, right, up, down.I am going to use left and right arrows for one thing and shift left or right to do another.Does anyone know how to make this happen? Here is my code so far (not working for combing shift and value)

well i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.

I'm trying to do a photo gallery for a website with scrolling arrows. I found a bit of AS that's perfect for what I want to do only problem is, it's in AS1 and i'm working in AS2 so i was wondering if someone could convert the code to AS2 for me or direct me to a tutorial that has the same sort of outcome in AS2.

My DateChooser code and its style code is shown below:
<mx:DateChooser id="dc" cornerRadius="0" bottom="0" width="100%" allowMultipleSelection="true" allowDisjointSelection="false" styleName="dateChooserGradient" change="fetchDateAgenda(dc.selectedDate)"/>
And the dateChooserGradient:
.dateChooserGradient {

todayStyleName: myTodayStyleName;
headerStyleName: myHeaderStyleName;
weekDayStyleName: myWeekDayStyleName;
dropShadowEnabled: false;
arrowBorderThickness:2;
arrowColor: #062338;
arrowAlpha: 0.1;
}
What I actually want for my arrows is a transparent background, with borderthickness to be 2, and the arrows and bordercolor to be #062338. Also if I can make the width and height of the arrow itself a bit bigger then what it is as default.

I have a file set up with a movie clip moving from side to side by itself and when it reaches the end of the stage it goes back in the opposite direction.[code]I know want to control the movie clips movement with arrow keys, just left and right so that it would stop when it reaches the edge and will only let me move it the opposite direction.I guess I'm just trying to set up a sort of template.
View 9 Repliesso first off, this is AS 2.0. Second, i have a little character from a tutorial on how to move an object around with the arrow keys. The character faces on way on "up" another on "down" and so forth. There are 4 frames for it facing up, down, left, and right so that on the key presses it faces the proper direction and moves accordingly. I also want this little guy to move behind objects. When this happens, i want the object that the little guy is behind to be partially transparent so that you can still see him and he doesnt just vanish.

Ok basically what is happening is that i play my game and when i die i goto the game over screen. once i click the play again button it goes back to the beginning but there's a problem. the arrow keys will not move the character left or right.So a few ideas is that the

In Fash CS3, suddenly, in certain files, I can't move an object left using arrow keys - but I can move the same object right, or if I hold down Shift + left arrow, it works correctly Also - I can move the object down with arrow keys, but not up Workaround - move an object on a different layer, then return to the problem object and it moves correctly. But this doesn't last long, the problem resurfaces.(I've tried rebooting; tried copying all the layers into a new file.
View 1 RepliesMy character's name is character. When left and right are pressed it tells me what's being pressed when I run it - it says there's no errors with the code. My character doesn't do anything though! [code]...
View 5 RepliesI'm using the actionscript below to Move Object Using The Arrow Keys and it works fine but I want to modify it so that when I press the up key it goes to and play a movie clip. Basically it's a ball movie clip that responds to the arrow key but on the up key it plays a bouncing movieclip and everything remains aligned.
Here is the script-
var speed =5;
this.onEnterFrame =function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
circle._y -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
circle._y += speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
circle._x -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
circle._x += speed;
}};
I created an animated character as a movie clip and I want to be able to move it using the arrow keys. I created a new layer and have the character on that layer.
