ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Effect Pom Used In The Footer Contest, Use The Same Grid-type Method Of Creating Mc Letters But With A Different Effect?
Jun 16, 2003
I really like the text effect Pom used in the footer contest, and would like to use the same grid-type method of creating mc letters but with a different effect. i understand how to change the parameters and shapes of the letters, but can't seem to figure out which piece of code is purely for the explosion effect. basically, i want the letters but with the 'Repel' effect from[URL] here is Pom's AS:
[AS]
cellSize=3;
radius=10;
damp=.85;
[code]....
and here is the .fla using the repel effect using pre-made mc:

I am trying to create a zooming in effect on some text. To do this i am using the scaleX and scaleY Tween. The problem that I am having is instead of scaling outwards in all directions, it looks like its scaling downwards and to the right. I think this is because the centre of origin is in the top left corner.
Code: import fl.transitions.Tween; import fl.transitions.easing.*; import fl.transitions.TweenEvent; var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); myFormat.size=15; [Code] .....

I've been looking for a Snap To Grid effect like this one [URL]. It's the best one I've found so far. It's what I want to create but I want my grid to be on a 45 degree angle and I have no idea how to do that...
I have the code below positioned on a keyframe in the main time line which gives me a grid effect using the instance 'cube' of the MC 'cube.
gridy=30; gridx=30; num=0; for (var i=0;i < 10;i++)
[code]....
The effect i want though is for the reduction in alpha to stagger from instance to instance, whereas at the moment they all fade together. Is there a way of tweeking the code i already have to achieve this staggering effect or does the whole thing need re thinking.
Fading effect with grid in flash. Those work nicely. But how to create a complete flash animation with fading grid effect, means how can i make a fading grid effect where images loop one after another.
The tutorial I am working on is at: [URL]. I have no problem with the fade grid effect itself but... I'm trying to make one of the squares (which is a guy in the middle of a scenic landscape) visible first giving the effect that you can only see him first, then the grid squares fade in to reveal the landscape that he is standing in.
So I tried just cropping the square out in photoshop, then just placing it in the exact same spot above the original image, but everytime the movie gets to the portion in the timeline with the actionscript, the little square with the man in it disappears. I want the square with the man in it, to remain on the stage from beginning to end, as top layer.
I am trying to make a grid of photo thumbnails where the thumbnail grows when you mouse over it. Sort of like the Mac Dock effect but in a grid. [URL]I don't need to load the photos as the above sample does. And I'd be happy with an effect in which the individual thumnbail grows on mouseover, or one more like the Dock effect in which the nearby thumbnails grow too, but less.

It's a bit of decoration to go behind a logo. When the dMove var is commented out I get the appropriate line of squares fading in and out at random spots along the x = 78 axis, but when introduced nothing appears at all...
I understand the Array Method: arrayname = new Array(); arrayname [0] = "Text" arrayame [1] = " Text2"
And have it randomly pick one via a clicked button or what have you, but how do I have these effect variables? We have randomly selected from one in the array, how do I make it so once it selects one of those, it effects one variable, and if it goes to another one effecting another variable + - or what have you, without using if statements?
how to make a movie clip have an elastic type effect on it when you can click and drag it and it snaps back into place in a springy type way. Also would like to have a maximum that it will allow you to drag it before it will snap back on its own.I've been Googling for 2 days looking for an answer and have had no luck yet.
im trying to create a flash effect using a mask layer.i want to have a text box which is invisible, and throu the timeline small peices of a mask layer will move over the text box, revealing the text. My problem is this, if i create a mask layer with more than 1 object, when i try to move the objects (for example in different directions so the text will reveal from both sides) then i get a weird movement from the objects (like the sum of both movements i wanted) so i was think maybe a layer can contain only one moving object.So i just cant figure how can i get the effect i want.
I am trying to create a full-frame photo slideshow/photo transition like the one on this site-It shows a random background photo each time a link is clicked and has a nice diagonal "wipe" effect for a transition. Then photos of their work are shown when exploring that section. How would I generate the random photos and transition effect upon clicking a link?
Many years ago, I got this file to teach me how to make a mask.Its a magnifying glass and inside where the glass is, there is a circle that makes the mask.The two layers below it show type going from small, to larger, where the magnifying glass mask resides.The demo uses a motion tween, where the magnifying glass and the cirlce move together.I am trying to create a drag mask to do this, is this possible? am not sure how to keep the magnifying glass and the circle for the glass together?I can't put the magnifying glass on the mask layer, or it won't show in the movie?Here is what the Original file looked like:This is what needs to stay together to work, and I can't figure it out?I have a script tome write the start and stop drag, but I don't know how I can put both the magnifying glass, which needs to be visible to the user, and the circle, which needs to be on the mask layer to show visibility of the masked layer below, together for 1 stop and start drag action.
I'm looking to create this styled effect for transition between multiple mc's.This site is an example of the effect I'm looking to create featured in the intro.The 'wash-out' effect is used as a transition and I'm wondering the best way to accomplish this effect. Is is code or tween animation of the timeline and some sort of filter?
