Greetings from the Flash newby! I've got a tiny test.fla with a movieclip that just moves across the stage. Using a MovieClipLoader to load the clip into myclip_mc it works fine. If I then add some scaling or resizing in onLoadInit() it just sits there. Any way to do what I'm trying to do?
View 2 RepliesSo I made a listener that moves around MCs when the stage is resized and it works great. However the script doesn't work until the stage is resized . Below is the script and I would really appreciate it if you could show me how to get the script to work regardless if the browser is resized.

How do I make my flash game keep picture quality when browser is resized.I built a flash game combining using actionscript and whenever the player or browser is resized it loses quality. This really annoys me...Is there a way so, if the browser for example is made smaller the game's picture still keeps its display quality
View 1 RepliesWhen the browser is resized, how do I make the movie resize?in the HTML parameters, I put width 100% and height 100% and in the .swf file I have: Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";Stage.align = "TL";ow, I notice if I were to shrink or make my browser stretch out. The swf doesn't resize on it's own to fill the space when larger or resize when you shrink the browser width/height. I've been told to use a listener, but I have no idea how it works, I've tried putting in scripts with no luck.
View 2 RepliesI use the addChild(myChild) on a window. but when this window resizes i want to make the myChild width and height to fit the window.

View 4 RepliesJust trying to make a flash photo gallery that displays all the image files in a certain directory with the usual photo gallery functionality.
View 1 RepliesOver the past few days, I've been trying to figure out how to make a flash website that will have elements move in accordance to when the window is resized. I had got as far as getting it to work in flash when you preview it there. But I tried to publish it and it sits at the TL at its normal size. I had set the html to 100% etc. but to no prevail.[URL]..
I have attached a zip of the files I have- they are unpleasing to the eye and incomplete, but it should get the idea across. Hopefully this doesn't seem like to much to ask. if you can get my ugly Zip.file to publish in Dreamweaver, like it previews in flash.
I've made a photo gallery that scales from the center with the browser window size. Now I'm trying to make it so when window scales the gallery tweens to fit the new size, but I can't seem to figure out how to implement it into my previously written code. Here is all the code, sorry its a lot to sift through. I've put some notes in the important sections.
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.display.StageAlign;

I will have three seperate pages for the motion tween, mask effect and shape tween... would you make the seperately, in a different scene, as a symbol or on the same scene with the website.
View 2 RepliesI'm making a "master movie" for an assignment and I'm stuck right now. What I've got is an Intro page that will serve at the Parent.swf to load 4 other child swf's upon a mouse click. The problem is I have a theater stage where I tweened an animation to make it appear the curtain on the stage is going up but once it reaches it maximum height....the tween abruptly stops. I want it to HOLD there until a user clicks a button.
How would I make this happen? Here is the page in question: [URL]...
I'm creating the Label component like this
var label:Label = new Label();
label.text = "some text";
label.styleName = "someStyle";
addChild(label);
But it stay invisible until I explicit set the width and height.How can I make the label to be auto resized according to it's text?
I was able to get photo gallery tute to work. However, I want to have photo gallery (picture in dump is not going to be used, just example) on my web page under my portfolio section, when I tried this I found the movie clip moved from position when I previewed movie? What do I do? I've just started on Flash so be kind!
View 1 RepliesI installed Flash CS4 and the alpha doesn't seem to work. I follow all the instructions to the letter but get no results. I had no problems working in Flash MX
View 6 RepliesI am working on a site (in Flash CS5 -- using AS3) with drop-down menus. I finally got my drop-downs to work and was stoked for that. I then decided that I wanted the menu bar to motion tween in from the left. I placed the tween on the bar, and saw the tween line on the stage. However, when I go to test the movie in Flash, or publish it and watch it in my browser, the tween doesn't happen, the bar just stays left of the stage.
View 3 RepliesI want to say that the code I am working with is the same found here: [URL] The code is working perfectly (pictures are displaying) when opening the file, work_diesel.swf by itself. However, my problems occur when I open default.swf, and then navigating to the section work. From there I hit advertising, and in that section DIESEL. HERE is where the problem is visible. The pictures are not loading AT ALL when doing it this way (the correct and final way).
I am just wondering if anyone can pin point the problem for me so I can change it. It must be said that the work_diesel.swf is loading from an external source into default.swf.
whether it be text, symbol, a shape that I drew. None of it works. When I create the motion tween the line arrow in the timeline doesn't show up like it should. Here is the extremely simple animation i'm doing. The problem are for the bottom 9 layers starting from frame 80. I converted all of those to graphic symbols and I'm just trying to do a very simple alpha 0-100 while resizing the letters. I've also tested motion tween on very simple shapes and it never works. I just don't get it.
View 3 RepliesI have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410
Code:
var eHam:Timer=new Timer(2300);
eHam.start();
function dropHam(evt:TimerEvent):void {
mHam.x=Math.random()*450;
var tHam:Tween=new Tween(mHam,"y",None.easeNone,50,570,2.3,true);
GameScreen.addChild(mHam);
[Code]...
The problem is that hit test don't work
I am fairly new to AS3 and I have a page on my site that navigates between 3 different movie clips using frame based navigation. I have action script on each of the 3 frames to move between the movie clips and that works just fine but i can't seem to get the tween to work on more than just one movie clip. Here's the code from the first frame:
Code:
Select all//load page
page2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent) {
//go to the frame clicked on...
gotoAndStop(evtObj.target.name);
//animate between pages
new Tween(page2_mc, "x", Regular.easeOut, 0,260,1, true);
new Tween(page1_mc, "x", Regular.easeOut, 0,260,1, true);
new Tween(page3_mc, "x", Regular.easeOut, 0,260,1, true);
}
Whatever movie clip I put in the first tween will animate but the other two won't.
I use vuvox which is a flash app that makes photo collages but I would even make a similar to so I can host it but it must be vertical

View 5 RepliesI've searched the forums as well as other areas of the internet to find a solution to this issue I'm having. I've managed to gather bits and pieces here and there and they have kind of came together to get me further than I expected. I've basically went about my own little way of trying to make a photo gallery using php and flash. So far I've made more progress than I figured I would, but I have ran into a few issues and I fear I may have to start over entirely.
What I've done is pieced together some php code to read the contents of a directory, it then writes them to a php file and assigns them each a variable name and finally assigns the number of photos in the directory to a variable name, it looks like this once the script is ran[code]...
I am using the XML and Flash photogallery that Kirupa has in the tutorials [url]. I was wondering how I can:
a. make a second caption
b. make a caption with a link on it.
i need to make a photo gallery were i can just duplicate the folder"vacation_photos" and then rename it something else and not have to change the path on every freakin photo and button.
View 1 RepliesI found this site and I realy wonder how the made the photo effect, what you see when you going from one content page to the other.
View 6 RepliesI've been working on a bit big project. I've some components on the stage. There are basically 4 frames. Each frame has some components. What I've done is, I've used tween class. Workflow is something like this:
Frame 1:--used Tween class to get fade effect for List component.--used Tween.MOTION_FINISH event to fire an event when it is finished.--when it is finished, applied eventListener--on Change event, remove eventListeners and use Tween class again to get reverse fade effect.--again used Tween.MOTION_FINISH event to fire an event when finished.--in that evenHandler, gotoAndStop(2);
Frame 2://similar
Frame 3://similar
and so on.. now, what happens, is, if i play with my scene, sometimes tween class failed to work. sometimes it does not display List component, sometimes it displays List component with alpha 0.2. sometimes it happens with movieClip also. Is it flash bug or problem with my code?
new Tween(Image1movieClip, "y", Strong.easeInOut,
Image1movieClip.y, thetargetY, 1.5, true);
the following error occurs, access of undefined property Strong...however Back and Bounce works here..
Unfortunately the example is a broken link on senocular's site... this is what I have so far...
ActionScript Code:
import com.senocular.drawing.ShapeTween;
MovieClip.prototype.DrawCircle = function (x,y,r) {[code].....
Both the shapes are being drawn but as soon as I insert
ActionScript Code:
tween.play()
the stage just goes blank and stays that way.
I can't make the tween to work. I've tried hundreds of tutorials and such (and they are all basically the same), I even followed the troubleshooting section of this tut with no results.If I download any file with that same script it works, if I copypaste it and do the exact same thing it doesn't. Maybe is something very simple that I just can't see but this is driving me nuts.
Partial code from flash tutorials:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
new Tween(ball_mc, "_x", Elastic.easeOut, 0, 300, 3, true);
