I need to have a sprite that acts as a blur filter for whatever is below it... i.e. if its a square on top of a photo, then the photo is blurred underneath the square, but nowhere else. I've seen a few examples where displayFilters were used to create ripple or colour effects, but none that just blurred the image below
I'm working on a site [URL] where I'm using an elastic effect on a window that will display the content. Code for elastic is on a frame: rate = .3; decay = .4; window.goal = 50; window._xscale = window._yscale = 0; window.onEnterFrame = function() { [Code] ..... Now all of this code works fantastic when I publish the movie for the Flash 6 Player, but when I change it to the latest Flash 7 Player it doesn't work.
I want to make a modal effect like a popup window in Flex, but with pure as3.
I put a filled Shape with a blur on it but doesn't look the same. I am assuming the blur effect is applied on the stage, but this would also blur the popup window. I also want several layers of modal+popup like "do you want to delete this?" and pressing yes => "are you sure?" Kind of thing.
how I can replace one movie clip with another when I click on the first one. Below is my code that shows me loading the first movieClip and adding it to the stage and assigning a OnClick listener.
thumbs_button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playVideoButton); for (var i:Number = 0; i < my_total; i++) { var playButton_url = "play_now.png";
I've got a dynamic text box which imports it's content from an xml file.I now need to create an effect so it looks like that text is being written. There are many ways of doing this with static text I know but the question is: is it possible to create the effect with dynamic text?
www dot arcteryx dot com (sorry unable post the link){once u are on the site goto mens(top left) >> jackets (left menu) >> click on any jacket}i figured out the magnifying part by masking but the issues that i have are :1. Snap the position of magnifying glass part to the position of cursor.2. make the cursor invisible3. start drag on Rollover (i think i got this)4. stop the magnification as the user rolls out out the specific area (the jacket in this case)
I know how to make a type writer effect ...Im having trouble adding textFormat to it as it types though each time a new letter is added it clears the Formatting...does anyone know a way around this? I tried using htmlText = "<b>asd</b>"but then it fails to recognise the tags since its loading one letter at a time, i made and algorithm to recognize a tag and put the whole tag into the htmlTx....but that didnt work either.
Is there a way to create a dynamic mirror effect that will create a reflection regardless of what is placed above a set line? Meaning, we should not have to duplicate symbols, flip them and create the effect manually. The flash should be smart enough to create the reflection on the fly.
I am trying to dynamically load images into this slideshow. I have 2 MC's, one with an animated mask, one without. I am trying to load an image into the first MC, have the mask reveal it, then load that image into the 2nd MC which is behind this one. This way, when the next image loads and has the mask show it, the other image will still be on the stage behind the new one, and so forth.Here is the excerpt of code from where the main actions are being done..
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); var myListener:Object = new Object(); myMCL.addListener(myListener); var canMoveOn:Boolean;
I have seen how mask in photoshop works. However flash mask does not work like that. I want to create a effect in flash with a image dynamically. Probably involving bitmapdata. As yo can see the second image is the actual one. I want to create the first one from the second one using actionscript. But the problem is flash masking does not understand gradient mask etc.
On the site [URL], for the words showing out, it use a dynamic effect to show it out. And especially,the blue background of the text is adjust according to the each line's width.
want to make a tear/rip/flip effect and i find alot of diffrent pageflip flash pages out there and tutorials, but the problem is that i want it to be "static", a code that i just past on the MC, so it *flips* when you get to X frame in the timelineThe feel is like the link below, except that i want the page to completely rip o
I am trying to get a ' Typewritter effect ' on a dynamic text field that imports txt from external txt file. Trying to decipher some code I found in an example that created typewritter effect but text was declared in strings and not reading from external txt file. So I am trying to adapt it some. The effect works but when it runs it only displays my text field instance name and not the actual text from the txt file.
Does Nebdy know where i can find Dynamic Text Effect Tutorials. I'm trying to create a textbox that loads external text and, upon loading, displays the text like its being typed.In addition the new letters fade from white to a shade of blue, and lastly as the letters are being typed a sound clip is played per typed letter
I have plenty of ways of creating falling snow like effects, but a client has just comitted me to an effect as a test of my ability without talking to me first, that I am a little stumped by.I need to have a top down falling snow effect (its actually supposed to be flour falling from a sieve but hey...). All the snow effects I know, fall down sideways on, from top to bottom, and then they disappear off the page (the flakes).I need the particles (movieclips) to fall downwards from a birds eye view, and 90% of them to disappear, but the remaining 10% to gradually (over about 5 seconds) build up a white logo (shape) in the middle of the screen.So I am guessing that I am going to have to be clever with dynamic masks to get the shape appearing a little bit at a time, and then I also need some random motion, and scaling as the particles fall downwards (and away) from the eye.
Before I jump in at the deep end, has anyone got any ideas on this, even just part of it (the falling particles or the revealing dynamic mask part) would be a great help.Please let me know if you can help with ideas and input in anyway, and I'll give you credit on the final project when complete, as well as much help as I can with game related scripting and deisgn/URL...
I have a dynamic text box with html enabled on it. There are hyperlinks in the text that I want the user to be able to click and have that link open in a new window. This is causing pop up blockers to go crazy though, and when the user allows popups it refreshes the window, losing their current location in the flash file.
I have been able to open a new window with some javascript and a geturl(), but this only seems to work with buttons. My textual hyperlinks are not buttons though. I have tried using asfunction in my href and then using geturl inside the function, which doesn't seem to work either. Open a new window without triggering popup blockers from an html enabled dynamic text link.
I have tried a few ways but have failed to get text into a dynamic text field inside the window component. I need to get the following trace command to appear in the window component. I have a workable window component and that is not the issue. I just lack the knowledge of how to link dynamic text in a window that doesn't respond to absolute instance ID scope such as _root.yadayada.[code]
I'm trying to get my dynamic link to open in a new centered window. The window opens fine, but it tries to display the url "url[p]" and not its correct dynamic link.
Here's my code:
Code: on (release) { getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open(url[p],'newwin','650,400,yes,center'); NewWindow.focus();"); }
I'm making a program that has to write random names to the screen.I'm loading the names from an external .txt-file called nameDataFile.txt The .txt-file contains this:
I am tying to make a number appear in a dynamic text window. I have a dynamic textfield on the stage with an instance name called count_txt. The code that I am using is shown below. Both tace statements show a value of 100 but nothing appears in the dynamic text window.
Well, I'm making a program that has to write random names to the screen.I'm loading the names from an external .txt-file called nameDataFile.txt[code]...
