ActionScript 2.0 :: Modifying 3D Carousel Behavior?
Dec 10, 2009
[URL]I've read/viewed this tutorial and I want to tweak its behaviour to suite these requirements:
- Carousel must be static unless one of the icons are clicked.
- When an icon is clicked, the carousel must rotate until the clicked icon is on the center of the carousel (6 O'clock of the circle) then it will stop there.
I'm currently trying to add an image galley, something like this [URL] into into the carousel from gotoandlearn [URL]. What I'm trying to achieve is, every icon would have its own image gallery with different images beside it.
I trying to make a modification to Lee Brimelow's "Click and Zoom 3D Carousel". What I want to do is make it rotate about every three seconds to the next image (without any mouse interaction). I tried using the timer but didn't really get all that close.
Here is Lee's original code: Code: package { import com.gskinner.motion.GTween; import com.leebrimelow.utils.Math2; import com.theflashblog.fp10.SimpleZSorter; import fl.motion.easing.Exponential; import flash.display.Loader; [Code] .....
I have created a dynamic text box and attached the default UIscroll bar from the components library in CS4.I have attached it to the text box and it works ok.When i drop it onto my page it appears white (my background is black). When I preview it does what it is supposed to. So far so good. NO! The default Scroll bar is hideous. I want to change it but I cannot figure out how to.
I have tried double clicking it but it cannot be edited. Is this an action Script thing? I have recreated it in another flash document with the text box and the scroll bar which I have attached called 'scroller with text'.I have double cliked the scroll bar and changed it to how I want it and it works, i know how to but its not in my main flash file i am working from. I have saved the one Ire-created one as a SWF and tried importing it but it has errors on it. see attached 'MAIN_Menupage'.I have been through all the tutorials on this website and cannot get this to work.
I have a problem and I hope that u can help me out. The thing is that I'm going to have several buttons on my page but I want them all to have the same animation or behavior when clicked on. Is it possible to use variables to label objects?
I just exported a FLA file as a quicktime movie in CS4 using the 'animation' setting, and it produced quirky results. A 'ghost' of each object was left on screen, apparently at the point where a keyframe was present in the original FLA file. Don't know how else to describe it, and I don't think there is a way for me to upload the movie for anyone here to see? Anyone experienced this? or know a way round it? I did manage to get it to play right when exported with the 'DVC PAL' type codecs, but the quality was awful. All the other options produced results at least as bad as the first attempt.
i'm trying to write some code to create an instance of a movie clip and set it's coordinates to ones from a file. the problem i am having is that every time it does it i want it to load the next coordinates in a list. how would i do that?
this is my code:
loadVariables("data.txt", "");
then on a button:
Actionscript Code: onClipEvent (load) { i = 0; sett = 1 cur = 300}onClipEvent (enterFrame) { function port():Void { this.attachMovie("note","note"+i++,this.getNextHighestDepth(),
[CODE]....
in my text file is: xx1=40&yy1=80&xx2=43&yy2=89 etc.
I don't know where to find it, I purchased a file that is a Flip Book done in AS3, the author of the book made a table of contents that requires me to type the pages and page numbers in the xml and then it creates the buttons, I want to be able to create my own buttons in order to create my own table of contents,
This is not about applying an external stylesheet to texts inside flash, but the opposite: modifying an external CSS. I'll keep it brief: An html has a div (id='wrap') with content in it, the style of that id is loaded from an external CSS. The html also has a swf in another div (id='whatever'). I want to switch the visibility of id='wrap', from 'hidden' to 'visible', with the click of a button of my swf.
This is in reference to the Kirupa tutorial "XML Guestbook with PHP". I used this guestbook on my previous site, and it worked great. The site was originally published under Flash 6 AS1. I am redesigning my site to be published as Flash 7 with AS2. When I test the guestbook in Flash 7 AS2, it errors. What parts of the actionscript do I need to update so it works with AS2?
I would like to improove the behavior of my buttons in this way: i have 3 buttons (pix1, 2, 3)when you roll over each button the color is grey.how can i do to let the color grey when my mouse roll out off each button? for exemple I roll over on pix1 the color become grey and after I roll out of pix1. the color stay grey. It is just when I roll over on pix2 or pix3 that pix1 become back black and pix2 or pix3 become grey.for the moment it is like this : http:[url]......
I wrote this code: // size of the stagevar largeurScene:uint = stage.stageWidth;var hauteurScene:uint = stage.stageHeight;
//bt01 is a button called btserie01. I have juste written pix01var bt01:btserie01 = new btserie01();bt01.x = 90;bt01.y = 150;addChild(bt01);[code].........
I'd started a discussion about a problem with a SWF file not loading an XML data file when rendered in a .NET WebBrowser control in a different forum [url] Further investigation has revealed that if the XML data file is loaded using Action Script 2 (via XML.load()), it works. But if the SWF file in question uses Action Script 3 (via URLLoader.load(), I think), the data file is NOT loaded, UNLESS the XML file is in the same folder as the HTML file.If either SWF file is loaded using Internet Explorer 9, then everything works OK. Are there any know issues (which would be apparently well-hidden from Internet search engines, because we've been beating on those) regarding the performance of SWF + Action Script 3 + .NET WebBrowser?
It's just so weird that there are ways to coerce the AS3 solution to work by moving files (not really an option for what we want to do), and that Internet Explorer 9 has no trouble, but the WebBrowser control (which everyone SAYS "is just a wrapper for IE") does NOT work the same way.
I have two datagrids and I want to override the behavior of the tab-key event, so that it goes to the next datagrid, when the cursor reaches the end of the first datagrid columns.
When you open the website and load the contaner with all mc,there is two situations:
1) Load perfectly and my container 3D effect is not so CPU Intensive and works smooth 2) My container with all _MC is very slow and eatin the CPU. The 3D effect is totally screwed up. The container is scaling it self all the time on the x-as and y-as.
Open the a new browser and set it to max view (not fullscreen) then open the domein URL...I use Tweener addTween() for the 3D effect... off course if i turn it off its all fine.. But i like this 3D effect so much.
Is it possible to change an object's instance behavior on-the-fly? In other words, can I change the instance of a movie clip object to behave as a graphic through actionscript?
I fixed the problem I was having with my TextArea - just as I thought, it was the CR characters throwing off the selection position. Stripping them out fixes everything. Now I have a different problem, though.My program needs to save text files as well as open them, and on a Windows machine, linebreaks are indicated with CR+LF: Wordpad is smart enough to recognize lone LFs as linebreaks, but Notepad isn't (and even then, saving the file in Wordpad will reinstate all the missing CRs). Is there any way I can detect what linebreak system is used by the OS so I can save files properly?
I have a programmatically-generated text field that looks like this:
Code: var tf:TextField=new TextField(); tf.styleSheet=styles; tf.embedFonts=true; tf.antiAliasType="advanced"; tf.selectable=false;
[Code]...
Has anyone else noticed this odd behavior? It's too distracting and unprofessional-looking to leave the way it is, but I'm not sure what my alternatives are if I want to include links in the text (which is imported from an XML file).
this is in Flash CS3. EDIT: If I don't embed the fonts, the "problem" goes away; however, I'm left with non-embedded fonts.
I'm running an app written in CS4 where most of the buttons still work. I have a popup, which goes to a certain frame with buttons on it. The following code is applied in that frame on that MovieClip popup.This
I know the Loader's class unloadAndStop() supposes to unload and stop everything on a SWF's stage when I load one, but does it also changes objects within the library (even if they are not on stage?).I'll tell my problem to clear it up. I am loading SWFs dynamically into my application and extract required symbols from them using applicationDomain and getDefinition. The stage of the SWF/FLA I am loading is empty, and all I have are exported symbols in my library.
The problem happens when I load symbols which have pre-compiled clips inside of them (in my case, a Partigen emitter, but I don't think it really matters), which probably has event listeners or timers - the code on these clips stops working and acts weird. I assumed unloadAndStop removes a required event listener from it, but not sure why (again, it's not on the stage). I am forced to use unloadAndStop on my loaders, since my designers put all their assets on the stages in numerous FLAs and now going back and changing it will cripple the company's work.
I'd write my own kind of unloadAndStop that filters these pre-compiled clips or checks what's truly going on there, but I am pretty sure that unloadAndStop does things which are unavailable through the API.
I've created a text field, styled it with CSS imported through an XML fragment, etc., and almost everything works as it should.
The exception (of course!) is with <b> and <i> tags. I've included the relevant font outlines in my SWF, and the bold or italicized text does in fact show up, but here's the thing: sometimes, the space between a word and the opening <b> or <i> tag disappears!
My text is all read in through XML <![CDATA[]]> blocks. If I had the following fragment:
Code: <![CDATA[This is <b>bold</b> text. And this is <i>italic</i>.]]>
The output might looks like this:
This isbold text. And this isitalic.Or it might looks like this:
This is bold text. And this is italic.
The problem is that the behavior changes according to the alignment of planets and phases of the moon or something I don't know. I tried forcing an extra space between opening tags, which would correct it in the instances where the space is deleted, but it adds an extra space where it's not!
URL...my flash buttons looks different on different systems, even if they have the same operating system the text is too big sometimes, which causes it to be truncated if this occurs on a system it occurs in both firefox and internet explorer.i cant have this! even if i make the test really small, it will mess up the justification my uncle told me it was because java was not installed, but installing it or updating it doesnt seem to make a difference
modify an existing flash shopping cart I purchased from Flashden.net (link). The cart uses two XML files to pull in data and to configure most of the data settings. I need help with one thing: I'm using this cart on a sunglasses shopping site and I need to configure the optional sunglasses to be clickable so they can be added to the cart. I know I need to modify both the flash .fla and the xml file so I've included the code for both below. Here's a link to the website I'm trying to re-configure. The section I need to edit has the optional sunglasses on the right-hand side of the main photo.Here's the first xml file that does some of the basic settings. This file is called settings.xml.[code]I made an attachment for the actionscript code called actionscript.txt that needs to be modified. All I need to do is figure out a way to make the optional images clickable so they can be added to the main cart. We can also just create a button that says add to cart next to each sunglass option. Either way works for me. I'm even willing to compensate the person who can help me come up with a workable solution.
I'm trying to build a schedule with Flash CS4 and Actionscript 3.0 for an Internet radio station. I'd like to have a .swf that I can open, drag and drop a text symbol from the Library (ideally, for design reasons), and then change the color of the text with Actionscript when the user presses a button.
I can change the color of text if I create it with Actionscript, of course, but I'm not sure how to use Actionscript to change the color of text I've created in the Flash GUI. I can't pass a TextField to a symbol and expect Flash to know what to do with it, can I?
I have twenty objects in the stage, everyone is name: unit1... unit2... and so on to 20.I wanted to use a loop to modify for example, the alpha values of everyone at the same time. So I used a name like unit1, unit2 so I thougt I could use a loop to assign the alpha values...
i need to change the animated logo's color in the left from green to blue.I have never done anything in flash before, this is the first time i've used the program, but so far i was able to figure out how to change the navigation and bar color and the text. but i can't seem to see where the color of this logo is coming from....
In screentshot 1 you can see that the Logo_Anim is made up of the Logo_1 - Logo_5 movie clips.Each of the logo_# clips is a piece of the logo.I'm not sure if something in the Logo_Anim is controlling the change in color of each piece of the logo, but it doesn't seem like the indiviual logo_#'s have any kind of setting..
