ActionScript 2.0 :: Monitoring Mouse Movement To Invoke A Tween Or Not?
Sep 26, 2011
I want to have a movieclip have its alpha tween in, when I move the mouse, and fade out when I stop it. Alas - with either an onEnterFrame or onMouseMove if the mouse is moving - it keeps repeating the tween function - how do I make it fire the tween function only once..? here's what Ive done - but its too unreliable ..
Code:
var mousex:Number;var mousey:Number;
var moving:Boolean = false;
onEnterFrame = function()
Searched the forum and couldn't find the mouse movement using the ._x/._y tween class to move based on another mc's dimension to give me the idea how to work on it.
I'm not sure what to call this particular way of making the movieclip follow the mouse.When the mouse moves up, the movieclip plays through the frame. If the mouse moves down, the movieclip plays in reverse? I think that's how it works.
I have a mc (fStrip) which looks like a piece of filmstrip with thumbnail images in it. I want this mc to move when the users mouse is positioned over it, but I only want it to move only along it's x-axis and in a direction opposite that of the mouse. And I want it to move or flow smoothly.
I've been trying to figure this out (see my lame attempt below) but without much luck.
onClipEvent (mouseMove) { buffer=20 //movement buffer mousePos=_root.fStrip._xmouse //store mouse position if (mymouse!=_root.fStrip._xmouse){ //if the mouse has moved
Im looking for a quick solution (if its out there) using the autohide feature using the FLV Playback Component.
Current situation: Using ActionScript 2. The FLV component fills the stage. Autohide is set to true.
It looks to me that since the video fills the stage, the skin will not hide. What I would like to do is have the skin fade out if the mouse doesnt move for a certain period of time.
They dynamically motion tween the movement to each lot. I am trying to achieve the same thing. At the moment I have a map with a similar capability, but mine "snaps" to the selected area, rather than animating to the selected area.My file can be viewed at
So I have so parts of actionscript which I am figuring out on how to make them one. What I am wanting to do is move an object to the right and fadeout. Here is my code to animate right 10 pixels, this works perfectly.
I use adobe production premium CS3. I made the movie(attached), just picture motion tween. As you see, that pictures in my movie just roll and roll. But, I would like to some interactive move in my movie like "when the mouse clic > picture move". Attachments: turnwith_blur.fla.zip (40.3 K)
I am trying to write a script to move a ball MC smoothly across the stage, without using tweens. I have thus far been successful, but there is one problem: the way I have it set up, speed increases with distance! I need the speed to remain constant. I understand why, but I can't figure out what approach to take to make the speed constant.
ActionScript Code: var speed = 100; var newx, newy, distx, disty, speedt;[code].....
I'm developing a flash application. I am looking for a simple way to animate my camera's movement. Is there any built in tweening library that supports the camera object? I've checked out greensock.com, but I couldn't figure out how to use their libraries for the camera object.
EDIT: by camera I mean the viewing perception. Not a real hard drive web camera.
I want to move a movie clip from startx and starty to endx and endy using AS but have it calculate the smallest distance and move the MC at a set speed accordingly so both X and Y stop in the right place at the same time. In other words I want a small script to act like i have just tweened a MC.
Tween: MC _X=0 MC _Y=0 Create Motion tween on frame 0 move on 50 frames Create Motion tween on frame 50 set the _X from 50 to 100 set the _Y from 50 to 200 play()
The movie clip moves to frame 50 but the _X moves at a slower speed than the Y because it has less distance to travel. How this is done in AS with a startX of 0 and a startY of 0 end X of 100 and an end Y of 200.
Well I'm tweening a movieclip using actionscript and (as you probably already know) if you don't embed the font, the textarea won't tween beyond x/y movement. If you embed, you can stretch it, alpha, etc. On the upside if you don't embed + you're tweening the container mc of the text box, it won't warp/stretch the text, instead it will just shrink/grow the available text area. Is there any way to get this effect while still embedding the font?
is there any Class available to set the speed of the movement tween by pixel per cetain period?because, if using the standart Tween function, the speed is set by the lenght per certain period.later on if i want to adjust the original and finish state, the speed of the movement became different because the period is the same, but the lenght is chaged.
I'm making movement of movie clip via creating new Tween in Action Script 3, Flash CS4 and it happens, when I mouse over button in another movie clip. The problem is that movement sometimes work perfectly, but sometimes it gets stuck in middle of movement and continues only if I mouse over again. Here is the code of function of first frame in main scene:
how can i let a move clip complete his motion tween movement after dragging and dropping it i am using this code and there is a motion tween applies to the movie clip r_mc
I'm trying to make a dummy from a circular menu that reacts (rotate) to mouse movement, I uploaded a fla example, different colors, size, etc, but essentially the same in
function; but for now I'm freezed how to do somethings, I'm not a programer or actionscripter, but I want to learn.Currently using CS3 and AS2, downloading the FLA example may help.
Ok, in the "fla", you will see a circle who rotates versus mouse movement (I would like to make a delay rotation for a smooth feelling when mouse is moving, those like "_x += (_xmouse/5)" but with rotation. Other thing I would like to do,is... that the movement stops progressively a few degrees before the mouse reach de cian angles(a1,a2), and then, the circles doesn't move if the mouse is moving under those angles, like a... an inactive area(U1), and if it could work with instances.
I've seen couple of websites [URL]...in these websites the text & the objects move with the mouse moves. I just wanna know how to move the objects with mouse movement or you can say how to make an object follow the mouse (left-right-up-down)
P.S. In the 2nd website there's a 3d character also which I don't have in my project so there's nothing to worry about 3d in flash. I've just couple of images & text
i need to record the movement of the mouse. The actual position and recording works, but i need the recorded 'mouse' to trigger all of the MouseEvents for the buttons and other interface elements.Does anyone know a way to store these events? This is the code for recording the mousemovement
Code: private function recordTut(modes:Number,frame:Number,gumD:Boolean,paintD:Boolean) { if(prevModes != modes)[code].........
I'd like to control a mc movement on_x direction (or _y) when the mouse mouves horizontaly (or verticaly). So when I mouve the mouse to the right the mc mouves to the lefht and it mouves to the right when the mouse moves to the lefht. It's for a window effect.
I am looking for a script to detect if the mouse has not moved for say 15 seconds or 30 seconds, and if this is the case then, its plays some movie-clip or follows with the next scene.
I have a white square(mc) on my stage. In the top left corner of that square is a little arrow. I want that arrow to move along the _y axis when the mouse is moving on the square. So I want the square to move along with the mouse. I like the movement to be easing.
How do you create an action to happen when the mouse is static for 1min. I need an animation to loop in an application kinda like "Pop Up Video" and when the mouse moves or the touch screen is "Touched" it will move to the second frame
i'm trying to build a "circular" menu that rotate on rollover and mouse move but with no good results. Just something like the yugo sliding menu but with buttons placed around a circonference.I don't need a dinamic menuI need a function that let the menu rotate up when cursor is below the half of the circle and viceversa.I've done a search and found a compass example but i really can't edit it. I'm a newbee and can't really figure out how to rotate a movie clip around its own axes on mouse move..
I am making an interactive map and am trying to contain my mouse movement to only stay within a certain box instead of the whole page / flash movie template.I have made a Movie Clip and given it an Instance Name of "menu"This is the code I have used to make the mouse move all around at free will.
i was looking at the circular movement tutorial on this site and am now trying to make it so the object points towards the mouse but only moves around that circular axis. any ideas on how i can do this in as3?
