i want to make a group of buttons, this buttons have to be in constant movement, random movement, so i download an example from this site, So now i have all the buttons moving, and the quesition is this... how can i make the random movement stop, on the rollover, and make it start again in the rollout.... thats the whole stuff..
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to make a MC rotate on it's axis (registration point)...I want it to rotate both clockwise and counter-clockwise at random speeds and random degrees of rotation. For example...CW fast 90 degrees...then CCW slower for 150 degrees...then CW really fast for 270 degrees...etc..etc..
View 9 RepliesI'm trying to make some butterflies move around on a mouse over. The catch? I'm trying to get random movement but not in straight lines, rather I need curves (or lots of very short lines) as butterflies are not on rails. My AS is pretty weak in this kind of area (or any area)
View 2 Repliesi am a bit lost. i make a prototype function that randomly scales a box when i click on the stage. i got the scaling right, but why does it move around when it scales? here is the swf: scaleEase
here is the code:
[AS]MovieClip.prototype.scaleEaseTo = function(ease)
{

So I got this from the tut on this site and it's works great.I can't figure out though how to make the speed random as well as the movent. I want all my little clips to move at random speeds in adition to direction.

I'm still very much a newbie when it comes to AS3. I need to create an external image scroller. That's simple enough, but these images are of people of different ethnics groups, roughly divided into four categories. So, the pictures need to be randomized two-dimensionally. The first random factor is which of the four groups to choose from. The second random factor is which image in that group to display. That way, no ethnic group is favored over another.
I've gotten fairly far...when I test my Flash file and click the Start button, you'll see the first random image. Wait a few seconds, and the second will appear. All well and good...but the logic for how to randomize and automatically display all 15 images eludes me, despite days of research.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I tried to upload the test files but they're too big, so the code is below.

I have a group of Movieclips that I want to load in a random order, until they are all loaded. In other words, when the movie starts, a random MC of the bunch would load, followed by another random, and on until they are all loaded.Right now I have the MCs with a quick alpha fade in onLoad, problem is they all load at the same time, but what I'm trying for is an organic type of loading, like they're blooming up all over the place.

View 2 RepliesIn Flex, sometimes when you need to clear a form you run into the problem that radio button groups seem to defy clearing: try as you might, setting selected=false on all buttons, setting selection=null on the group, doing both, doing them twice, etc., you always seem to end up with one pesky little radio button that's still selected. How do you solve this and restore the radio button group to its initial no-selection state?

I have a movie with 5 movieclips named section1_mc, section2_mc, section3_mc, etcI want to advance to frames 1 - 5 by clicking in each of the movieclips. Do I need to add the onRelease to each of them, or is there a way to do it once for everybody. I tried the code below, but when I click on any of the movieclips the timeline goes to frame 5, the last one.

for (i = 1; i < 6; i++) {
_root["section" + i + "_mc"].onRelease = function(){

I place a group of movie clips with random types (different shapes on a square) in a grid formation The code for placing the movie clips is this (this is in two for loops):
[Code]...
this goes up a single column in the grid and should remove the tiles from the stage depending on each type and it does this (sort of) until it tries to remove more than one of the same type. So if it finds and removes an lShapes it doesn't error until it tries to remove another lShapes and then it gives this error in the output: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. So I am assuming that this means it thinks all lShapes have been removed and thinks I'm trying to remove something that doesn't exist but there are other lShapes on the stage. I am at a loss as to what to do about this.
I need to reset or deselect a group of radio buttons. How do I do that ?
View 2 RepliesNew at AS3, more of a designer than coder but I try. This will probably be easy for this forum's pros: I have 6 main buttons and 50 other buttons. When people click on one of the six main buttons, I need the 50 other buttons labeled from t_1 to t_50 to be disabled (mouseEnabled=false)
I don't want to write the same line of code 50 times so I'm trying something like this. This is the code for button#6:
butt6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,menu6Handl er);
function menu6Handler(e:MouseEvent):void

i've applied the following script to a movieclip to change its 'y' coordinate randomly at run time and it works fine but i'm also trying to control the maximum 'top' and maximum bottom 'y' movement for which the value should be: top = 40 and bottom = 400. so it only displays randomly between 40 to 400 'y' coordinate. could you tell me how can i implement this in the following script?
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x -= 4;
if (_x<=-2247) {

I've been trying to simply get random movement on a MC on my stage.
Most of the tutorials I come across deliver jittery motion, not smooth eased motion.
Also, I'm trying this script found here: [URL]
The random motion looks great! .... but I can't stop the MC from moving to the top left of my stage. The script isn't setup to restrict the motion within a given area on the stage. I tried modifying it, got nowhere!
I wanted to built an enemy that is able to move on stage randomly in xposition and perhaps able to detect my character within the detectable zone and chase after me.. but currently I just wanted to make the enemy move randomly in x-position for starter.
It is my first time making and enemy with AI, but I'm just wasn't sure where to begin, I have used a fairy easy script to animated the movieclip in the beginning but got stucks whenever it reaches 960 or below 0 of the stage
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,initGames);
function initGames(e:Event):void{
moveEnemy();
}

I have an IK chain of 3 dots. I would like to put random movement on one of the dots 'pt1' so that is randomly bounces around my screen while the other 2 dots follow - something like a snake. However when I put this code on 'pt1' which is a movie clip by the way it simply will not work.

I am looking at the Kirupa code for random movement (Random movement in Flash MX), and I am trying to figure out if I can limit the movement to the shape of an oval.
I want to do an overhead shot of a bunch of little people swiming in an oval swimming pool.
I'm trying to achieve random motion of my movie clips limited from stage left to stage right. I've read the following tutorials:
[URL]
both are helpful. However, I don't want mouse position to affect anything (as it does in the 'continuous movement' tutorial). The 'random motion' code is pretty close...if I just knew what part of the code to modify to limit motion from left to right.
i want to make a movement. An object has to come from behind an object and go back again.The interval between each time the object appears has to be random.i was trting to maken something with the setTimer() function, and a random. The random gives a var.This var i would use as time for the object appears in combination with the setTimer().i can't come up with a decent code that would work.Where do i need to define the start vars, adn where do i define the random script.
View 4 RepliesMy knowledge of actionscript is basic, at best. I'm trying to make some animations move randomly by following a very helpful tutorial posted on this site [URL].. And everything was going so well until I tried to use my own initiative to limit the width and height of the movement. This is when I realised that I haven't got a clue what I am doing!
View 10 RepliesI'm trying to move a series of dots (mc used as linkage: "Dot") within a frame to random targets, with the movement activated by onRollOver. This part I have working fine.
