View 1 RepliesI developed so far, a function to resize objects (images, shapes) and center them inside a hexagone clip (similar to the bees hexgagon cells).
function imageResizer (b, maxW:Number, maxH:Number) {
var r:Number;
r = b.height / b.width;
if (b.width > maxW) {
b.width = maxW;
b.height = Math.round(b.width * r);
} if (b.height > maxH) {
b.height = maxH;
b.width = Math.round(b.height / r);
}}
Symptoms: The function resizes the object being passed to it, but, there's still some room to fill inside the square, but now it's empty! is there any solution to resize the objects with max width/height and still be able to fill the whole area of the hexagone resizes.

I have this game, and some levels have a moving square as the player, you move the square with your arrow keys.... I want to have an enemy square that chases the player square.... They only chased mario when you didn't look at them? Kinda like that...... but in this regards:
I only want the enemy square to chase the player square when the player square moves.... soo say the player square moves 5 pixels per movement (know how to do all that), I want the enemy square to move when the player square moves..... towards the player square at like 7 pixels per movement..... so eventually you won't be able to avoid the enemy square....
I have a movieclip that I am using greensocks transformManager with so the user can rotate, skew, and scale the clip. This works fine, but I am trying to add a crop tool. If the image is rotated, when I send the image to the crop tool it measures the height of the image by the bounds of the rotated image, not the actual height of the image if it were square (re: not rotated).
So, what I tried to do what, after sending it to the crop tool, rotate it back to 0 before getting the bounds using this code:
[Code]....
I don't understand the math here. Shouldn't it just rotate 3rads in the positive direction to equal it out? How would I return it to 0;
How would it be possible if draw a square, then put movieclip to move in it. It would move when rotate another movieclip..

View 0 RepliesI'm stuck with trying to target a movieclip dynamically from a loop. I'm using the square brackket syntax but I can't figure out why it's not working. Here's what I'm trying to do:
Code:
this.t1.t1._alpha=20;
And here's how I'm trying to do it:
Code:
this["t"+1+".t"+1]._alpha= 20;
hey guys, so, im going through colin moock's book, "the definitive guide", and im learning about global variables. so in his lesson he says to do this:
1. create a movieclip called square, with a square inside of it.
2. in the square mc's timeline, on frame 1, place this code :
_global.day = "tuesday";
3. go back to the main timeline and on frame one put this code:
trace(day); no according to moock, when i run the movie, it should output "tuesday", but all i keep getting is "undefined".i'm running mx 2004, so im wondering if that has anything to do with it.
How can I make an extrusion for a red square movieclip in flash or as3?
View 4 RepliesI have a circle_mc on the stage. Then I create randomly placed 20 squares (square_mc) on the stage. I can move my circle on that stage, and all I want is to check hitTestObject(or any *yet unknow for me* method that gives a result) if circle touches any of squares. Then I need to remove that touched movieClip (square) from the stage. hitTestObject checks if 2 specific objects are touched. My question is how to know which square is which, and then if it touches with circle_mc to remove it from the stage.
Code:
Select allif (circle_mc.hitTestObject( ?whatHere? ) ) {
?whatHere?.removeChild( ?whatHere? );
}
I have a square movieclip named squarepad. What I want is when I click on it to do [some stuff] according to where the square is clicked. It should be something like this:
if ([mouseclickedx] > 1) and ([mmouseclickedx] < 10) then
[do this]
end if
Inside movieClip container, there are colored buttons on layer1 and on layer2 there is movieClip square which covers the buttons. I want to use the color efffects and blending options of movieClip square to make layer 1 alpha. There are some blending options called alpha, difference, lighten and substract but Im not getting the right combinations. I want to make layer1 alpha only by using layer2.

View 3 RepliesI understand that this is something really, really basic, but for all my Googling I can't seem to find a clear answer.I have a movieClip with around 1500px of vertical content inside (a grid of images). But when I trace its height, it says it's only 400px high. I need it to actually report a height of 1500px, or it doesn't scroll properly.

View 4 RepliesI would like to add the ability to resize a rectangle movieclip, plus have the ability to drag it horizontally. I have the horizontal drag code working, but I am not sure how to add the ability to grab the ends and resize it.. There are a lot of these bars on screen, so I am adding listeners in a loop:
this["box" + i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
I imagine I need to add 2 movieclips to each rectangle to allow for resize handles, but I'm not sure how to refer to them or initalize them...Here is a pic of what I am looking to accomplish.
I'd like users to be able to drag out a shape from the side of the stage (say a square) and then resize it on the stage. I think I've seen this Flash functionality somewhere on the web.
