ActionScript 2.0 :: Tween - Remembering Last Position?
Nov 26, 2009
I've got a movieclip which I am tweening around the stage to various positions, depending on what buttons the user presses.My problem is, that currently each time the user presses a button, the movie clip shoots back to it's original position (placed on the time line), then tweens to the new position dictated by the button.
This is not what I want..I actually want the movie clip to tween from position to postition (not shoot back to it's original position each time).. I guess I need it to remember where the movie clip currently is, and then move to the new position..
here is my code for the tween..
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
ButtonOne.onRelease = function() {
[code]....

I am working on to slide a movieclip across the stage.The movie clip is five times the width of the stage and I am using the Tween Class to move it across the stage when a button is pressed.The interaction I want is that when the button is pressed the movie clip moves a certain amount.If the button is pressed again it moves further.The script I have come up with though is taking the movieclip back to the original position of the movieclip and then moving it as opposed to moving it from the position it reached after the first button click.I have tried a few things but nothing is working.The script I am using at present is:[code]

I am trying to understand the thinking behind motion tweening using AS3 (rather than doing it on the timeline).I am trying to create a simple platform game, and while this is simply a learning project, I have an movieclip instance on the stage, and using basic x+5 logic I can get the instance to move left and right on the stage accordingly.Trying to make the instance 'jump' is a bit trickier. This is the code I am using:
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;[code].....
I thought this code would move the instance from it's current y-position and tween it to it's highest jump point. From here I planned to use a MOTION.FINISH event to tell it to tween back to it's original position.Something strage happens though, rather than tween from the current y position and move up, the instance instantly transforms it's position to y+100 and then tween back to the original position. So it kind of turns out that it is the second part of the jumping action that I want to create.

I have a tween set on a timer:
var manTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,14);
manTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveMan);
function moveMan(e:TimerEvent):void {[code]....
I just need to make the tween's position relative to it's current position, as opposed to starting at the stage's 0 position then moving the the stage's -40 position. It needs to start at its current position the move -40 from that position.

Do you know how to rewind a tween. but I dont want it to just snap back to the beiginning. I want it to yoyo back to the beingining without actually yoyoing many times. you know what I mean?this is the code I have which make the beginning motion I want:
public function imageSelectR(e:MouseEvent):void {
myTween = new Tween(imageLoaderHost, "z", Regular.easeInOut, 0, -100, 1, true);
myTween.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, imageSelectL);

I'm working on a AS3 and Box2D game with moving platforms. The platforms are animated in Flash, and in actionscript I can read in their current position and adjust the physics bodies to match.However, there's always a delay, where the animation is one frame ahead of the physics. I wanted to fix this by reading in the clip's current position, storing it for later, and then putting the clip back to its position at the last frame.
But when I do this, it systematically refuses to budge. I coded up a simple test with a single moving box to test the idea, and I get the same problem ("movingBox" is a symbol that animates a single "box" symbol within it):

{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[code].............

how can you tween so that an object changes it's shape instead of position..

I don't wanna force you to reading a long, boring text, so I'll simply show you my algorithm.
1.Place an object on the stage at a random position.
2. Move it randomly around the stage.
3. When the button is clicked, make the object stop moving.
4. Make the object repeat the path it had gone so far right to the starting point.
5. Do it by using two arrays. One to keep all the x positions of the object, and the second one to keep all the y positions.
6. Then, loop through these arrays and set the object's x and y to what the arrays hold.However, my object isn't moving when I click the button.

I used a code to have so when someone clicks on a button, it takes them to a frame, and next time they visit, the flash file remembers where they were last using SharedObject. The problem its buggy. Sometimes it works and sometimes other objects like text disappearHeres the code.1st frame looks for the Shared Object, then goes to either 2 or 3 and 3 by default if no Shared Object is found
Code:
var Frame:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("MSCurrentFrame")
function StoreData() {

I need a flash program which can remember all the boxes that have been clicked on.
Imagine i have 5 boxes. They are all white, then I click on and it turns red. I want the program to remember that and store the data in a small file.

Basically say I have 4 areas in my website. There are 4 buttons that correspond to the four areas.
On the main screen are outlines of boxes. Each section will have a different sized rectangle so I want the boxes to transform to the new sized box.
So say you click on number 2 and you are on section 1. The main box will change size to the shape in number 2 from number 1. Then say you click on button 4. The box will then change to the shape of the box for section 4 from the size of the previous box.
How do you get it to remember where you are in order to transform to the area where you click the button?

i am trying to change the position while the yoyo is working but the tween object goes to the new position and then back to the old position and continuing to yoyo.
ActionScript Code:

I'm trying to make some manual transitions. Because I don't know AS3, and I'm building this from the help of Google, I've started with a simple "blind" transition just to figure out the works.
The issue is that when I expand the width, it seems as though all my AS3 created sprites seem to reset their x position, and sit on the left. That or 15 of the tweens aren't working.
Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
function vBlinds(){
var tweens:Array=new Array(16);

I have a flash project where different movie clips are loaded dynamically according to the data retrieved from an XML file. And they are positioned one after the other as if they were in a menu. Inside those movieclips there is a button that when it's triggered unloads the movieclip so it disappears from the menu/list. Apart from that, I would like the rest of the attached movie clips to tween and move upwards, so the list keeps its form. I'm finding quite difficult figuring out this function. I'm copying the code I'm using :
Code:
var numOfItems: Number;
var i: Number;

I want to know how do you get the current x position value of the tween object during the animation? I want to move a movieclip across the stage, but at a certain x position, i.e. x=600, a new movieclip is added to the stage and chases behind the first one. My current code looks like this:

I have attached the .fla that I am working on. I understand that it is very basic and does not use class files and so on.... but I am just applying the finishing touches so that it actually works.Inside the quiz movieclip is some code that makes people's names and scores be entered onto the leaderboard. This works perfectly fine, however when I close the SWF and take the quiz again, the people that were previously on the leaderboard have disapeared!Is there anyway to make the best people stay on the leaderboard for future uses?but the code that is in question is:From frame 65 of quiz:
Code:
Mouse.show();
finishTime = minutes+":"+seconds+":"+hundredths;

I'm trying to shape tween a movie clip of a rocket blasting off. I want it to "squash" before liftoff, and then "stretch" as it lifts off. When I tween this on the timeline with the transform tool, I can "squash" the rocket, and the base of the rocket stays on the "ground". This is what I want. However, for reasons I won't go into, I need to do this in AS3, as opposed to on the timeline. When I use a "height" tween, though, the movieclip height changes, but it shrinks/stretches at the bottom (locked at the top). Is it possible to do what I want with the tween class? Do I need to use something besides "height"?

I hav movieclips in a flash document that i have autocenter when the stage is scaled code is something like this:
clients_mc.y = Math.round((stage.stageHeight/2)-15);
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeClients);
function resizeClients(event = null){
clients_mc.y = Math.round((stage.stageHeight/2)-15);
};
any way to make it esae in to position or bounce, something?

I really like the new tweens and motion panel that Flash added in CS4 but I'm having some problems with them that I cant find a solution to.
1. When I animate or apply a preset animation it changes the position slightly. I do work where I need things positioned exactly where I put them. For example X:70 Y:210 but when I animate it might for example change it to X:70 Y:210.5 and to make it more confusing even if I animate a group of them at the same time it only does this to some things and not all. Also if I try to change the position back manually it doesnt always let me in the properties panel. I have to go to the Motion Editor and change it there frame by frame.
2. Similar problem to above but with the Alpha property. I want to animate things where it fades on and then stays up for a few frames and then animates back off. When I try to do this using the properties panel it doesnt always let me. So for example I need my alpha values to be in this order for the 4 keyframes. 0, 100, 100, 0. But for the 0 it might force it to 3% instead of the 0 I need. Again I can only fix this by going to the Motion Editor and adjusting it frame by frame.

i created a functionality for minimizing and maximizing it (on the stage only)by keeping the whole application in a movie clipand then animating that movie clip on press of a buttonnow the issue is thatwhen i reverse the playback of timeline(to expand the application)it expands in its initial statebut i want it to remember the last state of my nested movie clip(10 lvls of nestin ) and expand in in that state.

I am trying to load variables from a text file, and have them available from then onwards in the movie, globally so to speak.
While I can read the variable values in a loader function which executes when the text file is loaded, I don't seem to be able to keep those variables available afterwards.

I added a Menu_mc on my stage. Initially, this should be at the center of the stage and when I click on it, it will tween on the upper left corner of the browser. However, when I resize the browser, the Menu_mc goes back to the center of the screen.
I have tried separating a different actionscript file where it is specifically for initialization of the object and another one for resizing. And then when I call it on my main AS file it goes like this:
Code:
// Add the symbols to stage
var Menu_mc = new Menu_MC();
addChild(Menu_mc);
[code]...
But it seems futile.
