the program below is suppose to make the object move instead of just jumping from one point to another.my program so that it moves(what i mean by move is that is glides to the other point)

#include "tomcatURL.as"
stop();

i tried to modify this code, so when i click the circle, it moves to x position which the there is a transparent circle named cir the sp moves but do not stop at the cir x

I need to create a button which will be on a MovieClip. The Movie clip contains columns and rows of data. I want the button to be able to take you from the point on the MC where the button is down a few rows to another point, this would be similar to creating an anchor text in an HTML document, but I don't know how to do it with AS.
View 4 RepliesI moved from using the Flex Builder 3 IDE to Flash Builder a couple weeks ago and have noticed a ridiculous jump in compile times with the same project. It almost seems like every time I build it does a clean build. The project I am working with is pretty big, but when it takes more than 4 mins to build, something is wrong. I tried adding more memory to eclipse and all the tricks I could find on the web but the compile time never really changed. I am running under Windows 7 32bit, and I get the same performance from the plugin and stand alone version of the IDE.
View 2 Repliesi have the follow issue :
I have a point which is setted at the border on a component, with changed transform point to the center of a component in order to match the component rotation.
the important part is when i try to get the point XY after rotation - they remains the same as before rotation.
how to get XY, after rotation ( changeing point.rotation property to specific degrees of rotaion )
I know some basic trig. but how do i find an angle from an anchor point and a moving point?
adjecent = _root.anchor._x-_root._xmouse;
opposite = _root.anchor._y-_root._ymouse;
hypotenuse = ((adjacent ^ 2)+(opposite ^ 2)) ^ 0.5;

I am using AS2 with Flash 8 Professional So, my problem is that I currently have a man in the middle of the screen, who shoots a line towards the mouse when I click. However, when I use hitTest to see if the line collides with another object, Flash recognizes the line as a large box if it is diagonal, so the hitTest isn't very accurate. The line only satys there for one frame, so I can't have the usual moving-bullet-style. I am either looking for a way to create an imaginary line with AS from the starting point to the mouse and beyond, and tell whether or not this line intersects with an object... or some other way that I haven't thought of to fix my problem. Keep in mind that the line rotates from a center point towards anywhere around it for 360 degrees.
View 1 Replieshow to use these in order to make an object move from point A to point B in an arc.Think of that classic game where you have to input the angle and power and try to hit your opponent.
View 1 RepliesBasically what I like to ask is how to move a object from one point to another point based on the point tat you have clicked on a graph. For example, If I click on this coordinate (2,3) on graph, the object (movie clip) will move to that point.
View 3 RepliesI have a circle (bounding circle) offset from the centre point of my entity and I'm looking on how to move that circle around the entity as it rotates so that it's always in the same spot of the character.For example,say I have a bounding circle for the front of a car, when the car turns, that bounding circle needs to turn to So I have two points: position which is the position of the entity's centre point and offset which is the offset of the circle from that position. This assumes an angle of 0.
So if my car is facing 0 degrees: position (150, 150) and offset (50, 0) then the bounding circle would be at 200, 150.Now if I rotated the car 90 degrees, the bounding circle should be at position 150, 200.This is what I have now:
var differenceX : Number = _centre.x - _offset.x;
var differenceY : Number = _centre.y - _offset.y;
var rotatedX : Number = differenceX * Math.cos(_angle);[code]........But it's giving me these long ovals and now a perfect circle.

View 7 RepliesI have a motion tween right now with a moving point that is following a copied and pasted motion path. Is there a quick way to have the point draw a line behind it as it moves along the motion path??? I can't seem to find a good way to do it in AS3.
View 1 RepliesI need some code thats going to move my movie clip to a certain point on the stage and then stop. Hopefully the code is attached to a keyframe and not to the movie clip itself.
View 1 RepliesI read the Movement using ActionScript tutorial [URL]. My question is: How can I make the box stop at a certain point, instead of disappearing. What I want to do is to have a picture move from right to left, and then have it stop when it reaches the left side of a banner that I'm trying to make. I'm working with an image of a ship, and I want to make it look like it's floating from the right, and when it reaches the end, I want it to stop there and have text appear on the right side of the pic.
View 8 Replieshow to properly change a displayobject's registration point? changing the transform.matrix.ty / transform.matrix.tx, works, as long as the mc doesnt change x /y itself later. if it does, the matrix is reset.
View 2 RepliesI wish to have a function that will take as input a radius value and a magnitude value.
It will return firstly a point (x,y) and also secondly a direction, (vx,vy) which will have a certain magnitude(speed).
The point returned will be a random point within the radius value and the direction will be a a (vx,xy) that moves the point perpendicular to the line segment (x,y) ->(centrepoint).
I'm still new to AS3, and I was wondering how to make an object point in the direction of another object and move towards it if they are a certain distance from one another. I haven't been able to find out how to do this from the Adobe devnet, so I thought I'd ask here.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to do a apply a tween for the width property on a MovieClip Object but every time it changes the width and the position too, and I don't want that. I want to change the width going to one side without changing the x and y of the object.
I tried both of thes and they gave the same result.
var c:Tween = new Tween(left, "scaleX", Strong.easeOut, 1, 1.5,20,true);
var c:Tween = new Tween(left, "width", Strong.easeOut, 20, 200,20,true);
I think it is applying the transformation according to a center of the movie clip. but I don't know how it can be changed.
Im working on a small project and it involves a guy which you move with the arrow keys. The arrow keys add to his x, y velocities and his position is updated accordingly. How can i get this man to grab onto an object and spin around it (like when you grab pole and letting your momentum swing you around) . I can make him grab the object but I dont know how to modify his x,y speeds to simulate the arc.

View 2 RepliesI have an object which is converted into a symbol. I double click on this object/symbol and it goes into its own seperate timeline. For my coding purposes I would like to know how to change the registration point of the symbol so it moves along or is addjustable on a symbols its own timeline so a can create animations on an objects timeline without screwing up my codeing because objects don't register when their moved away from the registration point the compiler still thinks that the registration point is where it was previously.
View 8 RepliesBasically 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.
