View 4 RepliesI've got two concentric circles with their centers at (centerX,centerY). The inner circle has a radius of 100 and the outer circle has a radius of 400. If take a point on the circumference of the inner circle, I can draw a line from the center to that point. Let's call that point x1,y1). I now want to continue that radius out to the outer concentric circle and calculate the position of that outer point (x2,y2).
I'm adding a 3px 'dot' just to show where x1, y1 is on the screen. (Subquestion: I can't see it...not sure why.)This is what I'm trying:
var x1:Number = 100;
var y1:Number = 50;
var x2:Number;[code].............
I made a gradient glow within the FLASH IDE on one of my textfields. I was wondering if there is a way to change the glow in as3? Apparently you can not change the glow in the flash IDE. It has to be white/black gradient.

I have a datagrid with more than 70 columns (with few fixed). I dont want the scrollbar to appear in datagrid (both horizontal and vertical) but in the parent container which is a VBox (or canvas) instead. This will help to scroll the screen vertically without having to scroll all the way right in datagird to scroll vertically.

View 1 RepliesI'm using adobe's example.swf to provide inline flash upgrades for users. However, if the example.swf is embedded in an iframe, and the user gets redirected, adobe will redirect them back to the inner iframe page, causing breakage.
Is there any way for this redirect to bring the user back to the outer frame?

I have a swf that I need to attach the flex builder debugger to. I have full access to the source code, and can make a debug build of this swf.
However, this swf is being loaded by a non-debug build of another swf which I don't have source code to, and can't make a debug build with.
I've tried mocking this up with two very simple swfs, and while it works fine when both are debug builds, when the outer swf is a non-debug build, while I can get the debugger to connect, I don't get trace messages, breakpoints don't work, and it seems to lock up the flash app.
I have a grid of DisplayObjects that when I put a glow on any of them, the glow overlap the other objects.
I was wondering if I could take the glow created by a DisplayObject and put it another, so I can attach it to a container that's behind all the objects?
Code below is fine and shows a nice eased button when you rollover it brightens and rollout and if fades back. If you change the alpha property on the glowfilter to '1', I have a nice glow around the thumbnail button that fades in and out.... so... how do I get the alpha of the glow to start at 0 and fade to full strength while the main thumbnail image works as it is at the moment???

I am creating an application for iPhone4, and one of the problems I am having is the lack of filter support. I am trying to create a "stroke" around some bitmaps... an example would be a text field that is white on a bright background - I would put a black stroke around it to contract it... there are other needs as well, but this is an example.
Before, I would just put a glow filter on the text field, tweak the settings and it looked good and did exactly what I wanted.But iPhone4 high resolution with gpu acceleration don't support filters - and I can't change those requirements... so any and all bitmap filters are out. Any way I can create a glow filter effect without using filters that would not be a major performance hit for fps and memory?

where I have a logo pulsating with glow.. I've gotten it to go from 0 to 100% and back (looping), however, I'd like to to take it a step further and have more of a random glow, for example have it go from 0% to 90% to 40% to 75% to 10% to100%.. I'm thinking that I need to set up different vars for each one of the alpha states and than pick them randomely... however I dont' know how to go about that.Here's my code so far:
var delta: Number = -0.05;
logo_glow.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_FadeSymbolOut);
logo_glow.alpha = 1;[code].....
When I pull Illustrator elements with Outer Glow into Flash, the glow looks pretty nasty...lots of artifacts and "squares" throughout the area where the glow is.
Is there a way to preserve the high quality glow I see in Illustrator once I import those graphics into Flash?

View 2 RepliesI am trying to make my own script. And simply because I suck at making actionscripts, it hasnt gone too well.What I wanna do is that I have 5 miniature buttons for my navigation.When the main timeline is between frame 115 and 128, I want the first button to glow. The second button should glow when the main timeline is between 129 to 141 etc.[code]This is what I tried to make work, which it didnt. I have pasted the Actionscript directly into the button. "miniatyr_guld" is the button name.

I have a glowFilter applied to movie clips on rollover state. When I try and publish from this computer the glow is always red no matter what I set the color to. If I publish on another computer the color publishes normally. Is there some setting in my preferences somewhere that is causing this error or do I possibly need to do a clean install? I created an example attached with the code I am using. The glow is applied with Tweener as well.
