View 3 RepliesHow you do flip a movieclip horizontally by script? doesn't seem to have a function for that.
View 3 RepliesMy idea is for a movieclip to flip horizontally when reaching an _x point, which is 225 (it should be half the stage). Now, I know about _root.movie_clip._xscale, and I've tried it, but it didn't work. Here's my code:
onClipEvent(load){
if(_root.poke._x=-225){
_root.poke._xscale=-100;

And I'll upload the .fla for you, so you can see what the problem is.
I've loaded a clip in my main swf and I want to flip it by using scaleX*=-1the problem is that in my clip, the animation is at the center of the stage so when I load it and flip it using scaleX instead of staying at the same place it flips by using the top left corner of the clip as a pivot instead of the center of the animation itselfI could either solve this problem by placing the center of my animation on the point (0,0) in the clip or flip then rearrange the clip's x position inside my main swf...but is there a more effective method?
View 3 RepliesAnyone know if the following things are even possible?
1. Making a movie clip flicker via ActionScript (i.e., it's alpha changes constantly between two values for a set period of time).
2. 'Flipping' a movieclip horizontally via ActionScript.
I have a image of burlap @ 500 width x 430 height. I need to tile this as my entire background for my full screen flash site. flip the image horizontally for every other placement horizontally, and then i need it to flip vertically for every other Vertical placement. So the image only looks seamless if i do this. I have a illustration below to help show what i mean.

Actually, I'm struggling with a flipping swf. I did lots of research, and know about flash component. Now I can make a simple swf flipping book like this. [URL]. However, I wanna add more functions in it. Like this. [URL]. This example is a html..contains css, javascript..etc...
just wanna know, is it possible to do the same thing in swf version?
That means..I want to make a flipping swf that i can:
- flip like a digital magazine
- double click to zoom in/out and drag
- also have buttons to control

I created some text, converted into a movie clip and I have three keyframes - 1,5,15.at 1 the text is as it is, at 5 i flip it horizontally, using the transform tool [q key] and at 15 i flip it horizontally it again, so it's normal again And I've put motion tween between both the places. Now when I preview the swf, from 1 to 5 the text animates as it is supposed to clockwise but from 5 to 15 it rotates clockwise
So it covers 1/2 revolution and then traces the same half back to become normal again.What must I do in order to make it swivel in clockwise sense only ?
Any tut for this number flipping effect? [URL]
View 2 RepliesI have a sprite element that i need flipped around 360 degrees, in it's position. I am looking to flip it forward, (similar to a dial in the casino machine, spins on the z axis).I would like it to look as if it was flipping forward, and then back to it's spot. The rotation would have to be on the z axis. I would prefer not to use the Enter_Frame event.
_testSprite = new Sprite();
_testSprite.graphics.beginFill(0xFF);
testSprite.graphics.moveTo(0, 0);

View 3 RepliesIn my intializeChar function i've got it so that when you move left it turns your char left by doing _root.grid.char._xscale *= -1; But that makes it so that every frame that your going left it will switch from looking left to looking right. What I want is to have the char face left while moving left and afterwards keep it looking left. And when going right it's the opposite, how do I do that?
function initializeChar() {
game.speed = 3;
game.path.char.swapDepths(10000);
game.char = {startx:1, starty:1, clip:game.path.char};

The very first animation that plays. The part where the content area flips into view? Or if it is not possible. How would I go about creating something like that animation?
im just starting to learn action script here and i'm trying to get an image flipped so when i move to the left, the character is facing left and other way around, normally i would do this easily on director using rotation + skew property which is not available in flash:p
my question is how you could flip an image using action script, i tried using the _xscales but it doesn't work properly because the flash is flipping my image with registration point on the left edge. making the image flipped but also changed its _x
can someone give me some help with this? like using script to center out the registration point ?

View 1 RepliesI am using one of those pageflipping books from page-flip.com's website. The free version is available here: [URL]. The file "flippingbook.swf" references a js file which points to a jpeg which is then displayed on the book's page. The jpeg can be substituted for a swf file. I would like to create a table of contents swf file (lets call it "table.swf") I would like to click a button on "table.swf" that would make "flippingbook.swf" go from page 1 to page 4, etc.
View 3 RepliesI am a graphic designer with many years of experience in Creative Suite Design Standard software. However I'm just beginning to get into Flash and have a project where I need to create a simple page-flipping brochure. My client has a 3-fold borchure in both SWF and JPEG formats which she wants to turn into a Flash flipping book to post on her website. I have the CS3 Web Premium package but I want to know if I need a third-party page flip plug-in or does my version of Flash (9.0) include the page flip engine?

View 4 RepliesI got this pretty much working, but there is a bug, when the bird is going right the trace statement says right but I get the movieclip flashing between flipping right and flipping left. So I assume its a problem with that bit of the code. Also this function is running constantly so I don't know if that might be an issue:
Code:
public function objDirection() {
trace('old' + oldX);
trace('charx' + char.x);
if (char.x>oldX) {
trace("Bird right");

I've been away from Flash for a few years and I can't even do the most simple tasks now... :-/ Not being able to assign scripto buttons is really annoying. It makes thing neater to edit, but takes getting used to.I basically want to be able to flip between still pages of a virtual book. I have the pages, I added the stop(); command and two buttons. What code do I need to write to simply flip through the pages?

View 0 RepliesMy movie is basically complete and consists of simple movie clips as buttons, these listen out for specific states and when these conditions are met a function is run which generally either plays a movie clip or runs a prevFrame loop.For some reason, although the mouse over and out conditions are working correctly the mouse down condition causes the variable to flip through 3 states which causes the panel im trying to show to basically run through 5 frames and then reverse for a single frame.I'm literally banging my head on my desk for a solution and my manager is starting to look at me a bit funny. Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Heres me code

I have a flipping book component. It come with the basic page turning function where the user can turn each page manually. Because there are many chapters,I created buttons under the pages so that the user can navigate directly to specific pages. I can not find and create the codeto attach to each button to make the pages flip directly to the indicated page? The component uses AS2,Here is main code that appears at frame 1.
import mx.containers.Window;

Is there an actionscript I can insert to create the animation/movement of a cube flipping/rotating vertically?
View 4 Repliesjust spotted this curious trick. If you want to flip something to go invisible on a click, and then reappear on another click (etc etc), try this:
create the sprite, setting alpha to either to 1 OR -1
mySprite.alpha=1; //OR
mySprite.aplha=-1;

I just wrapped the majority of a site I have been working on. And realize now that I have it formatted for html, that parts of some of its animations are getting cut off - due to not having enough space on the sides.What would be the best way to resize horizontally? I tried, but it only does so to one direction, and not even sure how to approach resizing such a complex anim... do i need to go in and do it piecemeal?
