best way to create an effect as if text was being 'typed' onto the screen (i.e. text appears 1 letter at a time, not as a single block)?I was considering creating an array containing each letter that needed to be typed, then using a timer to display each letter in turn... but this seems rather inefficient, is there a better way to go about this?
View 4 RepliesThe last I have been using Flash was around 4 years ago and I have forgotten quite a bit. I remember I used SWISH Lite to create a typing effect (as a blinking cursor is typing a line of text one by one) and later i just could take this generator animation of my text and add it to my Macromedia Flash.I have installed the new SwishMax Trial, but I really don't recognize where I have to go in order to get this text effect generator running.

View 1 RepliesI was just wondering what the best way to distort an object using AS3 is? I am creating a game which involves a ball-like object bouncing off several hard surfaces, ideally I'd like the ball to squash on impact (think of a soft rubber ball 'squashing' as it hits off something) and I wasn't sure what the best way to do this was? It may hit off of surfaces at any angle, so it won't simply be hitting off a horizontal plane from above otherwise I'd just use the scale function.
View 1 RepliesI would like to create a scrolling effect on one of my MovieClips. In Javascript I'd simply create two divs, one positioned absolutely in the other, and have the surrounding one have the style 'overflow: none'. Now I want to achieve the same in ActionScript, as shown in the following picture:
When I try to set the size of the surrounding MovieClip the contents just get 'squashed'. I want it to stay the same and the parts outside of the 'rectangle to be hidden outside of the MovieClip.

I am creating some buttons for a menu, and am using movie clips so that I can have a multi-frame effect on them when you roll over them. The buttons are flowers that bloom on rollover, and I only want them to play once- so the first time you roll over them they bloom, and then they stay in that state as long as you're on the page.
So far I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. I can create the animated rollover effect, but the next time I rollover them, it plays again from frame 1. I've tried using a variable that increases by one every time you roll over it, and then if it's greater than 0 it doesn't play, but I don't know how to set it to 0 at the beginning without it setting to 0 every time you roll over it.
Using Flash CS3, AS3. Trying to create a popup book effect. Have made some progress. Now what I'd like to do is play regular Flash timeline animations from within the Papervision movie clips.For example, the popup book opens and vector animations play as regular flash timeline animations from within the Papervison movie clips. Is this possible to do? I've read until my eyeballs are falling out but can't figure out how to play a simple timeline animation from within a Papervision movie clip. I've made a simple keyframe animation in a Papervision movieclip that is used as a Plane.
