ActionScript 2.0 :: Move Object To Position And Stop?
May 21, 2005
this should be pretty simple for most, but I would like an explanation more than just a quick code fix. I put all the script together for this object, here is the fla. What I want to do is move it up to the y position as it does, but I need the object to move faster and stop there. Since I have given most of script in the main movie, I don't know how to write the script for the button release. All I can get it to do is crawl up with targety=100; but I still have the problem with the mouse follow once my button is pressed.
I'm relatively new to actionscript x and y positioning.. and i was wondering how i would go about: after clicking a button, moving to a specific x and y axis and stopping?I am unsure on the coding that i would use..
The following code works fine when mouse is pressed at any position on the screen ,object moves that position...but what if I want the object move that position at a certain speed..say+10 using setInterval...I mean I want my object move slowly to any position I click on the screen..[code]...
How can I use another setInterval function so, when the movieclip reaches the limit (in this case 100 pixels), it stops, waits for 1 second and starts the letsMove function again?
well i'm trying to get this object to move on the press of a key (keeps moving if you hold it down) and stop when you release it, but all i'm gettin, is when you press it, it moves on forever and never stops....
I am using a ScrollPane in my application(viz., instance name is: myScrollPane). When I view the contents of the ScrollPane, it shows them perfectly. My issue is: When I try to view data present inside the ScrollPane, if I move the Vertical-ScrollBar of the ScrollPane to middle(or somewhere from top to down) and then click on Submit button(viz., instance name is: submit_btn), then its Vertical ScrollPosition must be reset from middle(or any position where we leave it before) to top(or initial position). Hence, I need to move the Vertical ScrollPosition of ScrollPane to top (or) initial position. Everytime, I need to refresh the VerticalScrollBar Position when I click on the submit button. How to do it?
how to make an actionscript to move punto_mc from current position to random position after release, and then from this new position to mevo to another randon position after release?
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 hoping someone can solve this headache. Basically, I want a movieclip to move to the position of each of my buttons from any position along my x axis. Therefore, the movieclip needs to 'flip' to face the way it is traveling.At the moment I have the movieclip moving to the mouse x axis when I ROLLOVER the button and stop following the mouse when I ROLLOUT but the code won't flip the movieclip so I must have something wrong...
What i'd like to do is have a menu/site map that adjusts when you click on a certain icon. For example, I have a AS3.0 flash file with, say, 5 keyframes with 5 buttons that are in different positions on each key frame. The buttons are set to gotoAndPlay the various keyframes. I can set up a tween that links frame 1 to 2, 2 to 3 etc. but what I would like is a tween from, say, 1 to 3, then 3 to 5, then 5 to 1 - basically in a random order rather than sequentially through the key frames. I could set each of these tweens up individually but the site is for a portfolio that I would like to keep adding to and to do this individually would mean an ever increasing amount of tweens.Basically, is there a way to get a 'MovieClip' to move from Position A in keyframe 1 to Position B in another keyframe without a set of tween frames? I'm sure this is simpler than I am making it sound but I don't seem to be able to work it out.
I added a Menu_mc on my stage. Initially, this should be at the center of the stage and when I click on it, it will tween on the upper left corner of the browser. However, when I resize the browser, the Menu_mc goes back to the center of the screen.
I have tried separating a different actionscript file where it is specifically for initialization of the object and another one for resizing. And then when I call it on my main AS file it goes like this:
Code: // Add the symbols to stage var Menu_mc = new Menu_MC(); addChild(Menu_mc);
I am having some dificulty making a path for this enemy i'm trying to create... cause i want him to rotate + move, then stop, then shoot, then rotate back and move off screen... Its easier if you see it.. you can download the swf file in the zipped archive to demonstrate what i mean. I did it there with tweens. Anyway.. i tried and make it but i'm a little stuck on the stopping part... you can also see what i did in the fla file attatched...
how to do an object move towards the mouse when i move the mouse the towards the object and backwards when i move the move away, something liike the menu on [URL]
I know this is very noob, but I need a simple AS move and loop. Move an object across the stage and once out of site, loop and start over again? It needs to be a slow and endless loop.
i am trying to work out how i can make a movieclip move around the stage to set/predefined positions on the stage when a button/s are clicked - an move in a horizontal or vertical direction only.i worked out how to make an mc move around to set positions in any direction (horizontal/vertical/45 degrees etc...) but now i need to refine it to horizontal and vertical only.
I have a panning background with buttons in it. It would be nice if when the button is pressed i could move the position of the mouse so that the movie pans and catches up with the new position. Is this possible?
i want to make my thumbnails move opposite of where the mouse is.so for example, if i move the mouse up the thumbnail moves down, if i move the mouse left, the thumbnail goes right etc...im trying to google this but i dont even know what its called so im not getting good results, or rather TOO many varied results lol. i was told on another forum that its called parallax menu or something like that but when i research it, i get millions of pages refering to this type of effect (they have other that move vert/horiz too)
I'm trying to make something similar to a news slider where I get content from a TXT file then loop a news ticker. As of right now I have the content working, as well as the automatically moving text. What i'm trying to do now is repeat the text as soon as it goes off screen, so it will be constantly scrolling. Here's what I have so far...
content.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_AnimateHorizontally_2); function fl_AnimateHorizontally_2(event:Event) { content.x -= 10; }
I have implemented a pan and zoom function on my code.Whern I zoom in all components look perfectly rescaled, all shapes and lines.
However my text becomes pixelated and isn't redrawn. Is there a method to make it appear smooth and readable even when I zoom in or move the screen around from its original position?
There are two movie clip one is mc and another one is mask_mc. I made the Registration point for both the movie clips to the left and tested locally and it seems OK when I am in the left edge, top edge or any edge the background is not visible and after that I uploaded to look how it goes. But I can see the background when the mouse is at the edges. How can i adjust the same?
My mask has a size of 1024 x 768 and the mc has a size of 1250 x 940.
I'm trying to make a movie clip move left or right depending if you move the cursor to the right or left on th screen. The clip is long and it have a lot of thumbnails and when it reaches the end of the stage has to stop. I have achieved this, but when the mc comes to the side of the stage it is getting slower and slower and I need it to move with a constant speed.
how i could create a function to do the following:- I have a mc and when you click on it i want it to scale too say 150% and move to a different x y position, then when you click on it again i want it to go back to its original size and position.
i want to make my thumbnails move opposite of where the mouse is. so for example, if i move the mouse up the thumbnail moves down, if i move the mouse left, the thumbnail goes right etc...
im trying to google this but i dont even know what its called so im not getting good results, or rather TOO many varied results lol.
