I haven't used as2 in a very long time. I found this code for rotating an object based on the mouse position. How do you actually apply this to the object?
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// find x and y differences
disx = _root._xmouse-_x;

i have this code for my site which Martyn_c kindly put together for me but i need to link this animated button to an existing page in my flash doc.
The object name is homepage and is on frame 2 of the homepage layer. I will paste the code below and what i have tried to do with the linking code is at the very bottom.
Unfortunately this doesn't work so if somebody has any ideas where i am supposed to put the code and if it is even the right code, please feel free to alter it please:

I have a image gallery slideshow, and when it loads an external image there is no smoothing applied. So being as this slideshow scales a image to the browsers window size, the image gets pixelated.Problem is, being as i did not make this slideshow myself, i dont know how to apply smoothing. And the AS code is very long, so i cant really paste it all on here.So i want to know if there is a way to force image smoothing on any image that is loaded in to the slideshow .swf? or any other way i can do it?This is with CS4 and publish settings are Flash 8 AS2.
View 3 Repliesim trying to use a use a code segment that makes something avoid the mouse. My issue is the code requires that iff i have more than one object that i want to avoid the mouse than i need to make a new set of variables for the second object and pretty much copy the code than change the variable names. Thats all great and dandy but i have a couple hundred very small objects that i need to avoid the mouse. is there any way to maybe apply the code to each object with an onclipload maybe?

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fun);

as you can see the object i want to move requires its own variables and 2 if statements. and i REALLY dont want to have to copy/paste that code over 200 times and make a new set of variables for each object. maybe i could apply the code to the object itself ? but than what would i name the variables?
I have alot of mc's and I want them all to have the same code applied to them without having to copy/paste all the code in each one and also it would be easier for any changes latter. I have tried making the code a function and then calling it inside the mc's but it did not work and I am fairly new at functions themselves so I am stuck.
[Code]...
The code marks the mc position, then moves it to 0,0 then moves back to the original postion while degrading alpha. I set it up this way so I can arrange the mc in any shape and the mc's will look like they explode into the shape when played. It is used for a fireworks effect.
I have an fla that uses the following AS:
PHP Code:
envisionblur._alpha = 100;
envisionblur.onRollOut = function(){[code]...........
I have four MC's that I want to fade onRollOver and onRollOut. As you can see, writing code for each MC is a rather convoluted way to achieve the effect.how to write the code as a function and apply it to all of the clips?
completing the code to get a return value from JavaScript to flash, but all the code was in a frame. My issue is I need to apply this code to multiple buttons, and then have them navigate to the appropriate frame. I thought I could put some of the code on the buttons themselves, or possibly I could call each button and keep all the code in frame one.....the external interface call function and the button functions....btn1, btn2; etc......I am not to verse in code and need to know what and how the best way to do this would be.

As stupid as my question might sound, i have spent the last 2 weeks reading oop books; but could use some guidance. I have a flash project that is basically a supped up slide show. On the stage i have the following: main_mc (instance name = images_mc) = movieclip which holds "pictures" ui1 (instance name = ui1_mc) = user interface that allows user to draw on picture (when drawing is enabled) ui2 (instance name = ui2_mc) = activates invisible hit areas (buttons) on select pics, when hit area is clicked, we jump to another pic in the main_mc.
I accomplished all of this on the timeline, but am updating the code to OOP. I am having A HELL OF A TIME trying to figure out how to store references to the instances (images_mc etc..), so i can control them from varying class files. I have found it is easy to control the instances from the documentclass, but not from unrelated class files. Example: images_mc.stop(); works in document class; but ovieclip(Parent).images_mc.stop() doesn't seem to work from any class file.(ui2 class file for example);

I have 3 balls and i want them to turn around a center point.The physics is right but I'm finding confusing how to apply the equation to any object of my array.
Here it goes the code:
Code:
var movies = ["ball_mc", "ball2_mc", "ball3_mc"];
var angle:Number = 0;
var centerX:Number = center_mc._x;
[code]....
adding multiple childs to an array these childs are added using timer after a time interval.actually there two classes and child of both classes are added to stage one through timer as i described and other through keyboard event. now is it possible to do this if yes than how?? and is it possible to apply hittest object between these two array.

I have a series of movieClip extension classes that are currently being applied via linkage in the library. I'm trying to find a way to loop the stage at compile and apply the classes to objects with specific instance names instead.
As it is now, if someone duplicates the library instance of a clip on the stage (which happens a lot), it loses the linkage. I could memo the entire dev team and tell them to re-apply the linkage anytime they dupe a clip, but I'd really rather not ask that of everyone...
After exhaustive searching, I'm still coming up with nothing for an actual AS2 solution to this. The only workaround I'm even finding is to create a variable reference to the clip in the class constructor, but I do not want that.
I have a couple of objects on the stage and want the user to be able to select one and then use a common set of buttons (with functions attached) to change the selected object's color, rotation, size, etc.
I've got the functions worked out, and can apply them easily as along as I hardcode the object instance names in the functions. However, I can't figure out how to allow the user to select a particular object and then pass the instance name of the selected object to an appropriate function.
i'm breaking my head over something, and will be very grateful to any creative ideas:
I created kind of drag and drop game: i have cards that should be placed on squares.
in case the card touches any square, the square changes it's color. the problem occurs when the card touches 2 squares at their middle: they both change their color.
in fact, I need that only one of the square will change it's color, and it should be the square that the card touches it with "the most of him". i thought of using the hitpoint but i know it won't work, because in case the card touches both square in the middle it won't work..

I would like to fade in and out and object with the colorTransform-method. When I apply the colorTransform to my object it does fade out the thing but not fade in. At first I set the alpha of the bitmapData to 0 (for the fade in-effect). After applying the colorTransform it does nothing. No fade in. Otherwise when I set the alpha of the bitmapData to 100 and let it fade out it works.

I have an object that I want to rotate in 3D (letter "Y"). I have some code that I gathered and edited a bit, but right now it rotates at the top left as it's anchor. I'm trying to get it to rotate at the "crux" of the Y (absolute center), so it basically rotates in place.
My second problem is the speed. Ideally it needs to rotate very fast then slow down and stop. Any thoughts on how to either clean up this code to make it work? I could try it with just transforming the shape, but I'm trying to see if it can be cleaner with Actionscript.

Two days ago I managed to create XML based gallery the problem is I want to create a menu OVER the gallery the issue is when I create an object and place it over the gallery it actually displayes it underneath the gallery.
View 4 RepliesFor the first stage, I was able to build a walk-through demo in flash pro by creating buttons that when clicked caused the flash to change to different frames. easy enough. Now for the final part of this project, I need to make the interface fully interactive, as I was trying before. ie: you can click any button and lights go on and off or a loop counter increments, etc. Since there is logic involved and too many permutations to do a frame for each possible state, I'm back to trying to do this in an object oriented way. I've got some test code here.

debugger has some errors, so i don't know what exactly it will do. the errors are at the last two if statements where i'm trying to change the object property setting of the label. there is another error at the last curly bracket.
the idea is that there are two labels and a button. the first label starts out visible. when the button is clicked, a counter is checked, and incremented, then the counter is again checked and the appropriate label has it's visible property set to true. the intent is that in a list of several labels, pressing the button scrolls down them, until you press while on the last, which resets the counter and the first label becomes the visible one.

Say I need to know if a movieclip is draggable (for reasons of changing a custom cursor to an appropriate graphic).
I can check if that movieclip has a function assigned to it's onPress event.I store the assigned function in a Function object variable.
Can I see what code is inside this Function object? If it contains a "startDrag()" or "stopDrag()" method?
