ActionScript 2.0 :: Make A Bubble Movie Clip - Fade In/out?
Jun 7, 2005
I'm trying to make a bubble movie clip, instance name storeBtn, grow in and out and fade in/out. I understand now that I can't use more than one prototype object because their onEnterFrame's replace each other? On their own each of these protypes work, although the scaling one isn't contraining the movie clip, it squishes the bubble in and out a bit. Is there any way to combine alpha and scale in one prototype? I tried adding more parameters but that didn't work. Or is there some other way?Here's the code I'm trying to work with.
flash version: CS3 AS2 Im having trouble making the pages for a website im working on. I have a row of buttons, and I want each one to open its corrisponding page ie. contact_us_button to open contact_us movie clip. the thing is I want each page to transition in and out. so when I click contact us, the contact us movie clip fades in and stops. When I click about us, the contact us movie clip fades out and about us fades in.
Is the way to do this to make each page movie clip have a fade start and fade end, and have it stop before the fade end, and on another page click continue playing the current clip to get the fade out and then open the new page movie clip?
I was trying to modify the kirupa "falling snow" tutorial into a water bubbles effect which is just making it up side down. However, I was having trouble to make the bubble start from a certain point in a movie. For example, I was trying to make the bubble start from the bottom of the screen, but it didn't seem to work for me. Therefore, I was hoping if there is someone who can help me to solve the problem.
There is a bad gap in my knowledge with Event Dispatch and Event architecture, and this problem proves it. I've been getting nowhere on this problem for two days, I've posted everything to my Flash site. Go here, please: [URL] Click on "Flash Banners" The two thumbnails represent two different classes. Each class is identical. Both are "extends Movie Clip" classes. Tweeners of various types control the hover and click methods. URL Loaders load the thumnails which I then wrap in MC's and make them buttonMode = true, etc. Hover and click to load the Banners on the thumbnails.
I can't send an event from the Eagle movie clip or the T2D movie clip to tell the other to fade out. Both Banner classes are instantiated through a separate Base class. I'm sure this has to be an Event Dispatch from one MC to another and that it can't be done by the Base class. how I can send an Event or Event Dispatch and what the code structure is so one movie clip can in one class can tell the other movie clip in the other class to disappear while it's neighbour is playing. I'm happy to post code or explain / clarify anything that's not clear.
I am trying to Scale the bubbles within the bubble chart. The problem is, I have no control over the data coming in, and the radiusField values are usually below 0 ( no negative values ) with a max of maybe 2.
I created an ItemRenderer for the BubbleSeries, and tried adding a scaleX and scaleY value on the createChildren method, but nothing happens.
I am looking for a way to fade in a white movie clip over my main movie when a button is pressed.
(i.e. When you press a button, a white rectangle will fade in over all other layers and then fade out after a couple of seconds. This is to make it look like the different pages are fading in and out without having to build the transition over and over again.)
Have been fiddling around for some time now and just can't seem to fade out my movie clip, the same way that I have faded it in. I have this AS already on it, am not sure if I should set the alpha or if I need to do something more complicated.
I will be loading a movie clip, into a container just to the left of the portfolio elements.What I want to happen is, in my Loaded MC I want to be able to click on the thumbnail, and in the parent movie clip ( the one you select the portfolio elements from).I want a Movie clip to fade in on top of everything. but Im having a few errors.IN my parent file Ive created and named a blank movie clip .the script inside of the satellite MC is :
but it unloads the satellite MC and replaces it with the swf, rather than inserting it in my target movie clip in the parent page.I cannot use _root in this instance, and Ive tried adding "_parent._parent".. im at a loss here.....
How do you make a movie clip fade out when the cursor enters the stage, but then fades back in once the cursor has left the stage? Is the same method then used with buttons?
movie clip's alpha to fade to 0 when the cursor enters the stage, and then when it leaves the stage to blend back up to 100% (or do you say '1'?)So far this is the code and FollowTxt will fade out but not back in:
var myFrame:Frame = new Frame(); var myHelp:Help = new Help(); var myFollowTxt:FollowTxt = new FollowTxt();
I have the following functions that fade a movie clip in and out Code: fadeAmount = 1; function fadeIn() { this._alpha += fadeAmount; if (this._alpha>=100) { this._alpha = 100; this.onEnterFrame = null; [Code] .....
And then I call the movie clip to start fading in and appear on stage Code: contentMC._alpha = 0; contentMC.onEnterFrame = fadeIn;
What I need is some way to tell the movie "after you reach alpha 100, stay there for x seconds and then fade out" and execute this code: Code: contentMC._alpha = 100; contentMC.onEnterFrame = fadeOut;Aafter it reaches alpha = 0 it should stop and stay there without looping back and starting to fade in again.
In simple terms, the first page loads and the movie clip fades in. Then once one of the navigational buttons is clicked, i need it to wait 3 seconds while the fade out animation plays before proceeding to the next page. There may be another way to have the fadeout animation play before it proceeds to the next page, as im fairly new to actionscript, im not totally sure.
I thought of making each phase inside "content" a movie clip, adding all the even listeners in the main actions layer and also adding the transitions there too.
When X even listener is pressed in X movie clip pointing to Y movie clip, fade out X using an e.target tween and somehow fetch the Y info and fade that movie clip in.
iam tring to make a new project , i just wants to know how to make a movie clip ( constant speed ) follows anther movie clip <--- "which can be moved by the user "
<<<>>>> i believe that this idea is good , that i records the X and Y postion of the User's movie clip and just make the other movie clip points at this postion and move toward it ,
how to make the other Movie clip (( which is a car ! .. so it have acceleration , speed , steering , etc )) go to this position or let us say try to??
Is there a way to fade a movie clip out based on the proximity of the mouse? Basically if my mouse is greater than 100 pixels away from a movie clip, I want the movie clip to fade to 0 and stay invisible.
I have a movie clip that is a motion tween with a shape with fade... Now I want to put this mc as a mask .. and showing a part of an image with lot of this mc's I know that I have to use duplicate movie clip, but the mc as mask isn't working
I want to draw a animated bubble chart in Flex 3 / Flex 4 like the link belowDoes anyone know if this made using a readymade component or is custom developed
Whenever someone clicks on a nav button, the corresponding .swf file loads into a blank movie clip I have on my home page. What I'd like to do is have the content on the current page fade out before the content on the new page fades in. I've used Flash for years, but this is the first web site I've built entirely in Flash, and I don't quite know how to approach this. I'm assuming ActionScript would be the easiest and most efficient way to produce this effect, but I don't know how to go about doing it. Is there a way to tell the current movie to go to a certain frame in the movie and play it before loading the next external movie clip?
I have a simple text fade movie clip that will "play" but won't work when I "Test Movie." What am I missing? I don't regularly use Flash as of yet, and have been successful before, but this is ridiculous - and I know I'm probably missing something very simple.
I'm making a room escape game and I've run into a problem. When an item gets added to the inventory, I'd like the user to be able to click on the item to affect another object (e.g. clicking screwdriver hides screws and displays other image) however when I add the code to the item, if the item is clicked and it's nowhere near the object it affects, the image pops up and it looks really stupid.
So what I'd like to be able to do, possibly using if and else statements or whatever's easiest, is to only have the inventory item be clickable if the movie clip of the object is affects is visible on the stage.
I'm wondering if there is any way to make the bubble sizes scale or resize when the size of the chart resizes. If the bubbles are set to a specific pixel size, it seems as though the size is set and that's it. So, if your chart is large, the bubble is size X and if the chart is small the bubble is still size X. [code]...
I wanted to make play button. Kind of this huge one in the middle of the screen as users used to see on YouTube.Here is the code for it which seems to work:
I added a thought bubble over an individuals head and have a couple problems with it. The first is that when you rollover one of the other individuals they should be on top of the thought bubble. The other issue is when you click on an individual a movie comes up, but the thought bubble stays there. I want it to disappear until they go back to the main screen. Here is the flash file: [URL] When you rollover the top individuals they are executing the following code:
is it possible to modify this script to make images load like a fade in/fade out slideshow. It works with buttons to action the transition I want, but I want a similar script to play a simple slideshow with same transitions.
but only 1 ball restart back,other 14 ball just stop at there , try paste on action and try you will see what i mean , how i going to make all ball restart back?
