i know the pythagorean theorem for figuring out distance between 2 points.
what i don't know is how to take that equation and determine another aspect based on 2 different bits of data.
figure out the ending _y position based on the starting point, the initial angle and the ending _x position??
I have problem in fixing a starting and ending point of a drawing line, looking for assistance
View 18 RepliesI am trying to make an animation where the user can mouse over a small MC at the top of the stage, which controls the movement of another larger MC at the bottom of the stage.I am thinking that 'points' (which I know nothing about) might be the way to go. The other thing is that it needs to be fluid motion. Am I at least on the right track with points and mouse_move or is there a better approach for this?
View 2 RepliesI've compiled an MTS video into MP4 format using FFMPEG. The video is 2 minutes long.
I want to be able to play the video back but start at 0:15 seconds and end at 0:45 seconds. Effectively I want the playback software to only show 30 seconds of playback available. The software must be a Flash-based application for integration into HTML.

The problem is "dataProvider" definition in LineChart, I wrote this code but it is still not working,
dataProvider="{dgg(sayim>=daySlider.values[0] && sayim<=daySlider.values[1])}"
what is the right code to control the LineChart with the Slider.
Adobe Flash Builder: How to make a function to play video starting from one second and ending in another? So I havein MXML simple video player tag. I need some function to play that video from second X to second Y and pause it. How to do such thing?BTW: we asume file is embeded into SWF.
View 1 RepliesIt'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 drawn a series of lines using flash's graphics.lineTo command, and placed them in an array to be referenced later. Based on certain user interactions, the clips that hold these lines can be shifted to the right, causing the lines to move with them, no longer connecting to the point they originally connected to. So I need to extend the lines by the amount their parent clip was shifted (I've called this incVal). So what I need to do is find the point at which each of these lines ended at, and draw from that point to the left by incVal. How do I get that ending point of the line?
This is my code:
To draw line and add it both to the clip and to an array for future reference:
line.graphics.lineTo(localPoint.x,localPoint.y-10);
membersRef.addChild(line);
parallelArr.push(line);

I have a video that I don't want the beginning of, I know how to set the Cue Points but I am not very familiar with ActionScript 3.0 and would like to learn some code to start my video out at a cue point so I can put this video inside another flash video.
View 0 RepliesI'm working on a services module (slideshow for lack of a better term) for an accounting firms website - site is still under construction at On the home page, far right hand column a grey box with a service icon and user controls progresses thru the five services until the user advances the slide manually.I need to randomize the starting point of the slide show using one of the five services. To complicate the matter further I need to weight them so some services show up more often than others. But randomizing with equal weight would at least be a start.

View 3 RepliesLineTo() and curveTo() provide basic level drawing. However, the lines these functions produce look like they were drawn by the line or pen tools. Is there any way, through either existing functions or through modifying current ones, that I could made the drawings done through actionscript look like they were drawn using the brush tool?
My first thought was to see if this was in default actionscript and could not find it. My second was to see if someone had already created the class, and while for a time I thought someone had, I lost the link . I guess I could always create the class myself, but I honestly have no starting point (like what algorithm flash uses to create its brushstrokes) and don't want to waste my time if something similar is already in existence.
I have been trying to do this locally on my machine by using the download simulator but the simulator doesnt seem to work especially when I give the player a 2GB file to load over a 14kbps connection, the file seems to load within a split second and absolutely no buffering occurs.My problem below needs to be answered before I can persue and purchase and set up a web server to run FMS as a production server, but understandably I do not want to do this until I know it is possible to do what I want to do.
Let say I have put a 60min video on the server which I want to stream. But I only want to stream the last 20mins of it. Am I able to set the player to stream from the last 20mins and for there to be no progressive download required before? I need the stream to start almost immediately from the start of the last 20mins and for it to continue plaing until the remainder of the video completes So essentially I only want to load a part of the movie into a stream and disgard the part of the movie I do not want to show.
this might be an easy question but i have not found the answer. i want a MC to move vertically upwards and then stop. i have the code below but this tweens downwards. i tried changing the -30 value but it doesn't seem to change the starting point. import mx.transitions.Tween; import mx.transitions.easing.*; var xPosT:Tween = new Tween(kText,"_y", Bounce.easeOut, -30, 56, 3, true);}; xPosT.onMotionFinished = function() {};

View 8 RepliesI was experimenting and finally got my "scrolling picture" test going. That is, a picture that can be scrolled around. I used the ScrollPane, also set the ScrollDrag to TRUE so you can drag the picture around, but no matter what I do, I can't get the Horizontal Scroll Bar, without the drag, people will no be able to scroll left to right and vise-versa. How can I include or make the Horizontal Scroll Bar to work / show? Also, is the a way to set the starting position of the picture ? For example, the initial display set to the center of the picture.
View 2 RepliesI added the accelerometer fucntion to my app for android using AS3. It works great. The only issue I am having is the starting orientation of my mobile device. It seems like it has to lay flat in order to center movement. I want it so that I can hold the device in my hand and tilt up and down in landscape mode. Like a 45 degree angle maybe.
View 2 RepliesAlright, so I've been struggling with this one since last night. When I create a new object (a new unit), and draw it to the screen (Flash does all the work there), the point at which it's first placed is considered its origin. That is, getX and getY will return the distance from that point... Why is that? Or how can I stop this?

I have an one input text box, first i type text into it and press space bar at this it will become empty and ready to accept next input from starting position, i make the text box empty bytextbox.text = "";

I have got a movie clip moving up the stage and when I press the keyboard I want it to come back down to its starting position on the bottom of the stage. What code do I add to the following?
[Code]....
this is a piece of my code
PHP Code:
dirx1 = (Math.cos((-70)*Math.PI/180)*80);
diry1 = Math.sin((-70)*Math.PI/180)*80;
}
fire1.onEnterFrame = function() {
[code]...
it throws a movieclip at a degree of -70 and a power of 80, while applying gravity of 2 to the diry var anyway... i want to, instead of making the trajectory based on power and angle, make it based on a point on the screen (mouse click) so the bullet will end up at that point when i click that point, ive seen this in bowmaster or bowmaster 2 so i know it works for as2.
Basically if I have a sprite for example located at (10,10) I want to move it to say (50,100) and the whole process to take 2 seconds or whatever duration I specify. What is the exact math behind this? I was using a distance based solution to determine speed but was just using a random modifier to control the process. I need something more precise to execute exactly over a set duration.
