View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a dragable menu.
However I do not want the user to be able to drag the menus out of the movies edge.
how can I get the dragable movie to know when it is at the edge of the screen and to let go.
I have tried but dont know how to go about it.
more specific, can you put a if() or hittest() statement in a on (press) statement
so the movie knows when to let go ?
I tried both ways but I may have stuffed the script
I've built my first flash application and it's very close to being finished. I have a problem with two buttons that are on the are on the left and right of the stage. When the browser is enlarged these buttons don't remain on the edge of the browser.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to make my screen scroll as my character moves to the edge of it, but when I get to the edge of the screen nothing happens, I think this could be something to do with my registration points but I'm not sure. I have added trace statements for debugging but no luck. I have included my Fla so you can see what I mean.
Here: [URL]
Here is the code I am using to try and make this happen
PHP Code:
// scroll the LBground if character gets past half way up or down the stage
function scrollLevel():void {
// Horizontal scrolling
var horizontalCentre:Number = stage.stageWidth / 2;
var horizontalPosition:Number = LBground.x + Mchar;

Using Adobe Flash CS3 on a sometimes dual monitor setup. After attaching back to my docking station, and starting up Flash CS3, the window is off the edge of the right hand monitor somewhere, and I am not sure where. The mouse cursor makes it look like the window is somewhere off the lower right hand corner of the screen somewhere, but even after holding in the left and up arrows for a long time, there is no motion, and the window never appears. I can maximize the program back to my primary monitor, but this is hardly an ideal solution.
I have found the following registry entry, but am unsure if it applies to what I'm having problems with or what the format of the entry is: HKEY_CURRENT_USERAdobeFlash 9SettingsWindow
currently i am removing objects when they reach the edge of the screen with
[Code].....
i understand this does not delete the object? without removing event listeners before removing the object the error log fills up, i believe its due to the stage isnt there after its removed. this makes me think that removechild does not delete the object? i will be creating and deleting many objects during runtime, and i dont want to slow down or use too much memory, how to properly free up the object
I need to do this project for school and I'm missing this one thing. I'm working in actionscript3 and have a panoramic picture of a room, that I'd like to move/slide(left and right) whenever the mouse cursor hovers near the edge of the screen. I'd also like to loop that image, so that you could slide it for eternity :) I tried to find a script for that but apparently the language barrier is too much for me.

View 1 RepliesI'm tweaking the video code found here [URL] His progress bar starts at the edge of the stage. My progress bar starts at x=40 into the stage. My problem is that even though all my mcs related to the progress bar are positioned properly the scrubber mc hops to the edge of the screen when the video starts. It also acts as if the progress bar you scrub though is at the edge of the screen too. I can't figure out why it's doing this. There's nothing in the code to tell it to do as such.

View 0 RepliesI'm trying to move movieclip Ball along the borders of movieclip Ground. You would move the Ball with the arrow keys which would increase and decrease its x value, but the y value will always be equal to the top edge of the Ground movieclip.
To do this I need to find the y value of the points on the edges of movieclip Ground. How is this possible?This is what the Ground MovieClip would look like. It is an irregular shape. What I want is for any x point a y point at the top edge of this shape.
I have written, based on some internet tutorials, a simple header for my website to display a slide show of images. I have set my animation dimensions to 845x295, the same as each of my images. The DIV tag I then embed this into is set to the same dimensions but when the animation runs I get a white border down the right and across the bottom.
View 1 RepliesUsing Voetsjoeba's golden formula, I've made some panels that ease into place. But why can't they start at 0,0? It seems I have to start the panels from the middle of the stage or else they drift off the edge, even with x and y specified in the code.

How do I determine where an MC's center is relative to its edges?
I'm developing a tool that a variety of noobs (as if I'm not still a noob) will be using, and I don't trust them to keep art with 0,0 being the top left corner.
How do I figure out that the left edge is now at -111px, and the top at -52, and the right at 12, and the bottom at 334?
Or what if they draw it so the left edge is at 56px and the right edge at 583?
Essentially, I want to determine the center of my artwork, wherever it is relative to the center of the MC
Im working on a system that loads text from an external source and scrolls the information across the screen. I've figured that part out but what I need to know how to do is get the loaded elements(which are textboxes in movie clips) to align to the right of each other respectively when loaded since they all will have different widths based on how much text is in there.
Example: [Loaded movie clip with text here number 1][Loaded movie clip with text here number 2][Loaded movie clip with text here number 3]
I'm creating a navigation bar for a website, and the client wants a little car to roll back and forth as you mouse over the buttons. Ok, that's easy enough, I say to myself, but I've run into a hitch.
When the page loads, (before you mouse over anything) the little car is sitting half off the stage, that is, only half the car is visible. I fixed that by putting the car symbol's registration point along the left side, but then the car's left edge is whats following the mouse. I need the cars center to be whats following the mouse, but at the same time, not be able to slide off the screen.[code]...
I'm trying to draw a line from a point, in a direction to whichever edge of the window it hits first.
I've really only come up with the most brute force solutions to this problem (getting the vector, finding intersections with the all edges, choosing the shortest) but I can't help but feel that some much more elegant solution is JUST out of my vision.
A followup:
This one is a similar problem in that I know there's got to be a really nice solution hanging out on the web somewhere that I haven't found, yet.
If I have a series of points along multiple edges of the window (up to all four) how can I sequence them to be connected to each other, and any window corners along the way?
In other words, let's say I have a series of points (generated at runtime, so without any order) along 2 edges of the screen and I want to draw the triangle that they make up. How can I connect them in order (so as not to get any of that ugly intersecting polygon nonsense) AND include the corner?
This one I really have very little insight on. The best I've managed is picking a point at the center of the stage and comparing the angles formed when drawing lines to each point. It's ugly, and requires that one find the largest angle between two of those vectors, first (making two passes necessary). It even breaks when the points extend to three sides as the largest angle is not always between the two outside vectors.
