I´d like to know how would I make a formula for the calculation of speed.It´s not as simple as distance divided by time.I want something different.I have an helicopter.This helicopter is landed.He will take off with a small speed, but increasing speed.What I want is.This helicopter movement. In other words, increasing vertical speed, in a given time, say, 2.4 seconds, in a give distance, say, 100 pixels.After that he keeps vertical speed constantly. So I think the helicopter will start with its vertical speed slow, increasing, then, decreasing untill it reachs its constant vertical speed.

Any Way to load text externally into text fields in flash but arranged in linked columns (like in Quark). I'd like to be able to just add text to the external file and the text to be rearranged automatically in the columns. For example, if you add a name in the middle, all the following text has to be moved down.

I want to make a fluid layout for the website I'm working on right now. I know the basic concepts of how to center an object and keep it there, or how to stick a shape to the top or bottom... etc. But if there's a movieclip that I would like it to conserve its position proportionally as the visitor resizes the stage, how can I do that?

I have a site that plays either .mp3 or .flv files depending on what is selected from the menu. Menu loads in from xml. I get "unable to make connection with server or unable to find flv on server" when I try to play the video. But the video and audio files are all in the same directory and the mp3 files play fine. I think I'm having a problem with the setMedia command. Here's the code that loads the video and audio files.

I used the liquid Flash layout file from this site , but i got one problem.I placed the script in a layer called actionscript and on frame 1, under it there is a other layer called background. I placed in just a square with a gradient color and made it a movieclip. I also placed this on frame 1. Everything is working perfect from this point but when i want to place a keyframe on frame 10 in the background layer and make a motion tween so that the background fades in from 0 opacity to 100, it doesn't work.

I'm working on a project that dynamically loads news articles.There is basically a title text box and a news box, both are the same width.I would like to know if there is a way that I can get the dynamic title to scale up/down in font size to fit the width (and also shift the news text down to be about 3px under the title)

I know I need to embed the font and declare the font in a setFormat string.
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("cat",this.getNextHighestDepth());
cat.createTextField("txt",this.getNextHighestDepth(),0,0,100,50);
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = "Times";
cat.txt.embedFonts = true;
cat.txt.text = "cat";
cat.txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);
cat._alpha = 50;

I'm making a piece of flash used for a website banner, previously i've had very little experience with action scipt as i've made various animations only having to use simple functions such as "stop()" and i've made a never ending scrolling menu also, but now i want to have an event that "onPress" a small animation is played where the mouse clicked the banner. What would be the appropriate script to link the .swf i make to the "onPress" command?

So i have a really nice flash gallery that i downloaded from a site but i am trying to personlize it. It uses a dynamic text (for the preloaders and the titles) which is post by this procedure :
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNe xtHighestDepth(),50,50,200,20);
target.my_txt.selectable = false;
};
So what i did was basically to create a new style (my_fmt) and apply it to dynamic style applied by default (my_txt) :
fullPreloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
target.createTextField("my_txt",fullImage_mc.getNe xtHighestDepth(),0,0,200,20);
target.my_txt.selectable = false;
[Code]....
Anway nothing changes. The text is always the same (Times New Roman which is by default) I also tried to change de height and width definitions but no difference. It only works when i change the x and y position of the text.

I have a movie clip button with a dynamic text field inside. I am loading the mc dynamically to the stage. In Full_Screen mode static buttons including the full screen button work without a problem, but the dynamic button event does not trigger when clicked. In this simplified code belwo the dynamic button when clicked should change its message to "You have clicked button 1". This works in normal mode, but not in Full screen.I tried btn_cuePt_1.enabled= true; but without success.
Does it have something to do with not using the fullscreen events?
exp. stage.addEventListener(FullScreenEvent.FULL_SCREEN, s_function)
Structure of my button is: Think of it as three layers inside a movie_clip. I used an empty button on the top layer so I would get a pointer cursor, I used a dynamic textfield the one that should change after the event to "You have clicked button 1", and last but not least the button graphic.
as3 Code
PHP Code:
//global variables
var btn_cuePt_1;
//file definitions

I'm trying to retrieve an input value from a dynamically created input text fields ("qtyWant_txt"). I want to play that value back into an array ("QtyWant"), which is tied to a form. When the form is submitted, it'll grab the value in the array. My problem is that I'm unable to retrieve the value in the input field prior to passing it to the array.

I have a grid that is drawn by the graphics library. I have small pieces, let's call them blocks that are the shape of a square. These blocks connect to each other to form pieces. I want the user to be able to rotate the pieces and then snap them to the grid.I've looked at the geometry libraries but I'm unsure how I would get the points of each square in a piece to match it up with the board after it has been rotated
