I have to be making this more difficult than it is. In a nutshell, how can I load one movie (the child) into another movie (the parent) and then using Actionscript, rotate the loaded child movie so that the loaded child movie rotates around its own center? Everything I've tried causes the loaded child movie to have the rotation point set to the upper left hand corner. [code]...
View 5 RepliesI am trying to use rotationY,X,Z on an externally loaded image. The image is displayed properly when no 3D rotation is applied, but does not appear afterwards. I have tried various things: loading the image into a bitmap, loading that bitmap into a Sprite/MC. What am I missing?Just to be sure, regular rotation works fine, e.g
PHP Code:
pic.rotation = 2;

How can i rotate a dynamic loaded picture around a point i define?

the box rolling is just an animation, but i'd like to know how i would make it rotate in a similar fashion using actionscript.
I want to rotate a movie clip with the mouse and I have this code:[code]Neither looks like what I want. The first image is okay until its rotated, and the second is blurry but looks better than the first when its rotating.So I have two questions.Is there a way to get better image quality when my image is rotating with out using a bitmap?Can some one give me a code example that changes the frame in the symbol based on the position of the cursor to the symbol?
View 1 RepliesWhat seems like a basic question, but my flash knowledge is basic. Can I rotate an entire flash animation/document before/when exporting it as a (swf) movie? (The movie is going to be displayed on a plasma digital sign, which is turned 90 degrees so it displays vertically, but the creative must be supplied horizontally).
View 2 RepliesI am just getting back into AS after about 4 years so bear with me. I have a movie that I show and remove as needed on my stage. The movie just shows leader board details and consists of 2 frames of content. I simply want to rotate the frames when the movie is on stage. This is what I have inside my move on frame 1....
stop();
var myLearderDelay:Timer = new Timer(5000);
myLearderDelay.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, showNext);
myLearderDelay.reset();

The third frame is just a catch from so it knows to loop back to frame one. I am wondering if there is a better way to loop these frames and have a delay on each one.
I would like to use a movie clip such as a rim from a car and rotate it on its x axis centered and then move it along the screen according to how much of the screen has loaded.here is what I have so far sorry it may be a little messy:
stop();
//rotate the rim
rim_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, rotateRim);
[code]....
NOTES: the function rotateRim works correctly rotating the rim the var xpos provides me with the correct position i would like my X position to be and traces it out perfect upon test if trace is coded for it.
Basically what I'm trying to do is make a sundial-style clock animation. I'm using AS2 in Flash CS4. I'm still quite new to Flash so my AS know-how is slightly limited...
I want to get the time from the user's computer (I'm using getHours) and make a line (movie clip) rotate to a certain angle based on the hour. Eg. 1pm = 13 degrees, 2pm = 26 degrees and so on. This is the script I have so far and all it seems to do is rotate the movie clip to 90 degrees.

I'm working on a tank game for my Flash class that has a cannon that's supposed to rotate with the mouse. Unfortunately I can't get the rotation to work properly.
Firstly the cannon does not follow the mouse in full 360 degrees and does this weird rubberbanding "bounce" back to a previous position. Secondly when it does follow it does so in the opposite direction in which the mouse is moved.
The cannon is a movie clip and nothing is put on the stage (this is done by the code itself). Everything is located in the library and all the coding is done through AS files.
My experience with coding in flash is minimal, the past couple of weeks being my first exposure to it, just to give you an idea where I stand. Below is the code for cannon.
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;

So far my logic seems fine for half of the experiment, however, not the other half:[URL] What I'm trying to accomplish is when a user holds down the mouse and drags it across the stage the movie clip will rotate in 3D space horizontally. That works, however, when the mouse is released the movie continues to rotate along with the mouse position. When the movie clip is clicked again then it will stop rotating, but it cannot be clicked and dragged a second time. The link above explains it the best. Also I want to make it so the movie will start to rotate when the mouse is down anywhere on the stage and not just the mc itself.

I'm making a movie that makes a baseball cap rotate as long as a button is pressed. How can I do this?
View 2 RepliesWhen I try to rotate a movie clip along the x-axis on the default stage size (I'm using a basic rectangle right now), the rotation appears just as I expect it to. It "rolls over" with the perspective even on both sides of the rectangle.
When I try to duplicate this in a movie with different dimensions (320x480) and apply the 3D Rotation Tool, the rectangle skews to the left for some reason. (See attached .fla files)
I've tried changing the registration points on the movie clips, I've tried making new files with the "Adjust 3D Perspective Angle to preserve current stage projection" box checked both on and off, and I've tried repositioning the actual Rotation Tool, but I can't figure out what's wrong. Could it have something to do with the stage resizing?!
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...

View 1 RepliesSo I have an array of eight mcs arranged in a circle around a larger mc and I want to make it so the user can click and drag any one of the mcs in the array and it will cause them all to rotate around the larger center mc.

View 0 RepliesI have created several buttons on the stage that on "over" change to a movie symbol and rotate. At the same time there is text that appears to the left in a grey area. All works fine, until you mouse over the grey area and text begins to appear and the corresponding button's movie starts. I assume that this is happing because it considers anywhere that there is an object to be part of the button it's self. How do i fix this?

I'm trying to use the scroll pane component for the first time, and I've spent most of the day getting nowhere.

Is it possible to target a loaded movie within the main timeline and stop sounds in that particular movie only?
View 4 RepliesI'm not sure how to describe what I'm seeking, but basically I have a movie loaded in a clip and when the user clicks a button, I want the loaded movie to perform some kind of action (fade out or whatever) while the new movie is loaded.
Probably something simple, but I'm an idiot,
I have an external swf (sub.swf) that loads into my main swf. The external swf has buttons of its own...that I would like to use to load additional external swf's in its place. I click on the buttons and nothings happens.
My current code is as follows:
All of the following code is in my main.swf
================================
//Location where the external SWFs will load
var Xpos:Number=18;
var Ypos:Number=10;
[Code]...
External swf has no code except for a stop action.
I pieced this current code based on various articles I've found on the net.
