ActionScript 3.0 :: Changing The Line Length?

Mar 27, 2010

I am still working on my pulley sim.  I have two wieghts hanging from a pulley.  When the user drags one down, the other move up accordingly.  I am trying to figure out how make the line that represents the rope grow and shrink as the weights move.  I have drawn the line like this:
 
var lineW:MovieClip = new MovieClip();addChild(lineW);lineW.graphics.lineStyle(1);lineW.graphics.moveTo(178,127);lineW.graphics.lineTo(weight_mc.x,weight_mc.y);
 
But I don't know how to change the length.  I tried redrawing the line in the Enter_Frame function that moves the weights but it only adds to the line without shortening it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Slideshow With A Delay Of For Example 3 Seconds, And A Preloader Which Is A Line With A 100px Final Length?

Oct 17, 2010

i have a slideshow with a delay of for example 3 seconds, and a preloader which is a line with a 100px final length.i start preloading next image.now if the time until next image loads is longer than slideshow delay, i will show next image as soon as it loads.if the time until next image loads is shorter that than slideshow delay, i want to wait additional time until delay and then show the image.the problem is how do i represent smooth line width grow (being enter frame or tween) by calculating/comparing 2 values together (delay and loader percent, which goes from 0 - 100) ?if my line growth represent just a slideshow delay, then when it gets to an end, if next image still hasnt loaded, then it wont look good if line has come to an end, but i still have to wait.

Actionscript 3 :: Remove Equally Spaced Elements From An Array With Length Of 'n' To Match A Given Length 'y'?

Mar 9, 2011

Let's say I have array foo and a positive integer y, where foo.length > y.I want to remove elements from foo so that foo.length becomes y (or very close to it).Also, I need to preserve the first and last element of foo. The indices of the removed elements must be spaced apart as equally as possible. Foo can be sliced, or it can be used to create a new array.

Example: if foo = [a,b,c,d,e,f,g,1,2,3,4,5] and y = 6, then trimmedfoo could be [a,c,e,g,2,4,5] or maybe [a,c,e,2,4,5], but not [a,c,e,g,2,4] because the last element of foo is missing.

Professional :: Place Ruler 0,0 Anywhere On Stage To Measure From?

Feb 1, 2011

I have two artworks on stage which have a common shape within the artwork. I need to make the one I have just added to stage fit the prior one by getting that common shape the same size for both. In Freehand I would drag the junction of the two rulers out onto stage to the left edge of the item, to create a zero point from which to take a measurement. I would drag a guide out to the right edge and read from the info panel an x value, thats my width, or double click the guide to get a reading from the guides palette. Repeat that for the other artwork then get a calculator and divide one measurement by the other to work out the scaling factor I need.
 
How in CS5 Flash does one place a ruler zero point on stage ?  I can drag guides out, but how do I make the left hand guide to be zero ?

Flex :: Force A Re-measure - Change Layout

May 9, 2011

I have a function that is made up of two main parts (I'll call them A and B). Part B needs to run when part A is fully done with its layout changes. However, there is no "part A is done" signal, and thus I've been calling a validateNow() before part B runs. This works but seems awfully inefficient - was wondering if there are any other tricks to force an immediate measure or something along those lines or if I'm stuck.

Flex :: Measure Various Phases Of Code Execution?

Aug 12, 2011

Is there a way to measure the average time it takes my code to run and each frame to render for my Flex app? More specifically, I know how to use getTimer() but I'm not sure about which events I should listen to in order to do this. I was reading this post and am not sure how you'd figure out how long the actual rendering took (it would seem like it may be the time between the RENDER event fires and the next ENTER_FRAME event fires, but I'm not sure). Also, not exactly sure where the user code happens, or whether I should care about EXIT_FRAME and FRAME_CONSTRUCTED. [code]...

Flash - How To Accurately Measure Time Delta

Jan 25, 2012

As I understand, getTimer() is very inaccurate - on my own machine it always returns a value which is a product of ~16. (16, 33, 50, etc.) Is there a simple and efficient way to more accurately measure the time difference (delta) between two separate calls in my program?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flex 2: Crash Bug In Canvas.measure?

Oct 6, 2006

The program croaks when measureContentArea (in package mx.containers.utilityClasses, file CanvasLayout.as ) loops through the target's children from 0 to target.numChildren. When the program errors: n == 1, i == 0, and target.numChildren is now 0, when it was 1 before the loop. target.numChildren has changed while the loop is running. It's as if a child was removed by some side effect of calls in the loop.

This happens even when I have many IOComponents on the screen: Here This baffles me because I don't see how I can debug it. I do add and remove and insert children in my game code, but unless ActionScript is threaded I don't see how my code can reach into a loop in CanvasLayout.as .

I have a sound clip running in flash and I want to jump to the next frame after a certain amount of time. Unfortunately it is not always the same time span. How can I measure the elapsed time and call a function accordingly? For example: after 17 second go to frame x, then after 25 seconds go to frame y, etc. until the end of the sound clip (2 min 50 sec.) Each frame holds an individual animation that is related to the current sound.
