I need some code thats going to move my movie clip to a certain point on the stage and then stop. Hopefully the code is attached to a keyframe and not to the movie clip itself.
View 1 Repliesi have the follow issue :
I have a point which is setted at the border on a component, with changed transform point to the center of a component in order to match the component rotation.
the important part is when i try to get the point XY after rotation - they remains the same as before rotation.
how to get XY, after rotation ( changeing point.rotation property to specific degrees of rotaion )
I know some basic trig. but how do i find an angle from an anchor point and a moving point?
adjecent = _root.anchor._x-_root._xmouse;
opposite = _root.anchor._y-_root._ymouse;
hypotenuse = ((adjacent ^ 2)+(opposite ^ 2)) ^ 0.5;
So I've now realized that no mater what I do. my 3D vanishing point is relative to my stage coordinates and not my movieclip's coordinates. I'm trying to move my 3D movieclip from one point of the stage to another but with the strong perspective that I have, I do not want it to change. I would like to move it and preserve it's perspective and not change it's shape.

I have a movieclip moving around on key presses and I was wondering what is the best way to stop it moving off the stage? I was thinking of putting hit tests around the edges but wondered if there was a better way?

View 2 RepliesWhat I have is actionscript which moves a movieclip from one point of the stage to another, using two buttons to trigger it - fwd_btn and rwd_btn. I also use a setInterval function, so that when you press one of the buttons, it pauses a second before moving. Unfortunately, if you press the fwd and rwd buttons in succession rapidly, the animation gets caught in a never-ending loop. Also, note that every time the user clicks a button, if the movieclip is right in the middle of animating across the stage, I wish it to stop and pause, not complete the animation and then pause.
View 3 RepliesWhen I move a movieclip with the rotationY option around the stage, the other mivieclips are cancelled from the stage when the rotated movieclip pass over the others. I use flash actionscript 3 CS4.
View 1 RepliesI have some code done but it could be all wrong as I am not the best coder at all, just starting out.
Here it is:

It's been a long time since I've done any work with actionscript, and alas I've forgotten nearly everything. I've tried to look for a tutorial that would explain basic animation with actionscript, but the one that I found on Kirupa was no longer there.
Basically I'd like to do this:On the stage I have a movieclip and I'd like the movieclip to move along the x-axis to a certain point and then back to the starting point again. The moving speed of the movieclip should also be adjustable.
I have a circle (bounding circle) offset from the centre point of my entity and I'm looking on how to move that circle around the entity as it rotates so that it's always in the same spot of the character.For example,say I have a bounding circle for the front of a car, when the car turns, that bounding circle needs to turn to So I have two points: position which is the position of the entity's centre point and offset which is the offset of the circle from that position. This assumes an angle of 0.
So if my car is facing 0 degrees: position (150, 150) and offset (50, 0) then the bounding circle would be at 200, 150.Now if I rotated the car 90 degrees, the bounding circle should be at position 150, 200.This is what I have now:
var differenceX : Number = _centre.x - _offset.x;
var differenceY : Number = _centre.y - _offset.y;
var rotatedX : Number = differenceX * Math.cos(_angle);[code]........But it's giving me these long ovals and now a perfect circle.
i tried to modify this code, so when i click the circle, it moves to x position which the there is a transparent circle named cir the sp moves but do not stop at the cir x

View 7 RepliesI have a motion tween right now with a moving point that is following a copied and pasted motion path. Is there a quick way to have the point draw a line behind it as it moves along the motion path??? I can't seem to find a good way to do it in AS3.

I read the Movement using ActionScript tutorial [URL]. My question is: How can I make the box stop at a certain point, instead of disappearing. What I want to do is to have a picture move from right to left, and then have it stop when it reaches the left side of a banner that I'm trying to make. I'm working with an image of a ship, and I want to make it look like it's floating from the right, and when it reaches the end, I want it to stop there and have text appear on the right side of the pic.

View 2 RepliesI wish to have a function that will take as input a radius value and a magnitude value.
It will return firstly a point (x,y) and also secondly a direction, (vx,vy) which will have a certain magnitude(speed).
The point returned will be a random point within the radius value and the direction will be a a (vx,xy) that moves the point perpendicular to the line segment (x,y) ->(centrepoint).
I have a moving vehicle on the stage, which should change directions according to where I click on the stage.I already made it work using this formula:var angle:Number = Math.atan2(dy,dx)*180/Math.PI+90;However, I need the car to tween to the correct angle, instead of just "jumping" to it. While this is easy enough to do, the car sometimes takes the longer turn (especially when I click in the bottom-left quarter of the stage), and it seems unnatural.

is there a way to hit test point NOT detecting a bottom movieclip if the mouse is over the top movieclip?
Is there a better way to have a symbol's anchor point default to the size of the stage? I'm having Huge problems because if two symbols are different sizes then I can't tell two objects to be in the same location.The workaround seems terrible. I have a guide layer for stage bounds. I'd have to duplicate that, add that to the objects that I'm going to want to convert to a symbol first, then remove it after it's converted. Is there anyway to automate any of that? That just seems like a terrible task to repeat over and over. I suppose one option is to have a blank symbol that is the correct size already, duplicate that in the library, rename it, put that on the stage, then put your objects in there. Wow, I'm not sure if that's better or worse!

View 7 Repliesfor most things such as movieclips you can set the regrstration point it is possible to set the regestration point for the stage.i want the centre to become x:0 and y:0.an AS3 command for this would work fine alternativly is there an AS3 command that automatically centers the choosen objectso instaed of having object.x = 30 you would have something allong the lines of object.x = center.

View 7 RepliesI'm working with a few designers, each of whom have created 3D animations (using fp 10 capabilities) for use in the same flash application. Each 3D animation is a unique movieclip that will ultimately be part of the same .fla file.
The problem I'm having is that each of the movieclips was created in a separate .fla, and each .fla had different settings for the vanishing point for the stage. This means that after importing the various moveiclips into my library, none of the visual assets are aligned as they were in their source .flas.
The good news is that only one of these movieclips is displayed at a time, so I don't need to be able to have multiple vanishing points; all I need to do is change the global vanishing point programmatically at various points during runtime.
What should I do? I've tried accessing root.transform.perspectiveProjection.projectionCenter and dynamically assigning it new Point(x, y) values, but they don't seem to be having any effect on the 3D movieclips.
We have values generator that outputs someting like FF00FF5F. We have some coordinates like 50, 300. We want to draw on stage. (I mean we opened new .fla doc in flash, pressed f9 and started coding, sorry - I am new to flash)
