ActionScript 3.0 :: Elastic Menu With N Elements - Add / RemoveChild
Nov 14, 2009
I'm trying to develop a simple elastic menu in AS3. I have a class named "menu" to create a vertical menu with n elements using a MovieClip from the library. It is linked properly as "base_primaria" and with MovieClip class as base class. Every element in the menu is in button mode and when is clicked calls a method (crearsub) to create a submenu. I have another class named "submenu" that creates a submenu with n elements using a MovieClip from the library. It is linked properly as "base_secundaria" and with MovieClip class as base class.
All the elements in the main menu must be relocated depending on the .y position and their .height. For that I'm using a method inside "menu" class named "posicionar". To animate the elements I use TweenLite. The first problem is I want to relocate all the elements through TweenLite and it is not working. Probably the "posicionar" function is wrong. The second problem is I want to click in one element from the main menu and it creates its own submenu. If there is one element with a submenu created, it must to disappear. All the elements must to relocate in real time in every click.
Here the "menu" class code:
Code:
package classes.menu{
/** * ... * @Roman Perona */
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code] .....
A client of mine has seen this elastic menu box effect and has asked me to see if I can loosely recreate it.elastic box menu .Does anyone know how to A; create it? or B; create a draggable elastic box and I'll go from there
I am new in Flash I want create elastic menu with xml (action script 3.0) this is my ref menu link[URL] any one know source url or tutorials i want step by step tutorials it is very urgent

URL..the menu when you move your mouse over model some shape also move above the model link and when you click on any model name shape remain on that model name and load the detial model range movie.
URL...I've set menu items with an elastic Y position prototype.What I need to do now is make the menu tabs collapse with the elastic force. So if i was to click the top tab, the bottom 4 would fall. If i was to click the 2nd tab, the bottom 3 would fall and the top 2 would go up.
I purchased an elastic menu flash component that uses AS3. Unfortunately, I've only just waded into AS2.I'm trying to replace the generic colored background with an image that is masked. Unfortunately, turning the layer into a mask breaks the functionality. The weird thing is that it works fine in Test Mode (Ctrl+Enter) and if published as an EXE. It just doesn't work as an swf.Has anyone run into this weird inconsistency before? Also, what is the best way to get into that component and possibly modify it?
i have an MC (hand) that ive made to be draggable. once the hand is released it should return to its original position....but of course, it doesnt. the code is a slight variation of some i found a while back and have kept in a folder. first frame on code layer in main timeline Code:[code]
I'm using a class to dynamically populate menu items based on arrays. The menu has to allow individual chapters and lessons to expand/contract to display the slides within.
I'm trying to set it up so that when the user hits the Chapter or Lesson item, it rebuilds the menu with the appropriate Chapter/Lesson expanded. I've got that part working, but I need to remove the elements that were previously added using addChild, but I'm not sure how to clear all the elements from an object?[code]...
I have an XML menu. The text is nested inside a movieclip in order to activate the hand cursor. Each menu element has two listeners that activate the following functions
When I use the following code I get all the menu elements formatted (the proper way is only the one choosen - should be formated!)
Code: function buttonModeTrue(event: Event):void { trace(event.target); for (var i:uint=0; i < MC_text.numChildren; i++)
[Code]....
I get no error in the output panel- but it doesnt work the way I want to Probably is something simple for someone that is used to "loop thing"...
I'm trying to build a conditional statement that will addChild and removeChild at different Timer Delays. Before I go any further, I thought, I should mention that I'm usinig TweenMax to ease the alpha of ease Child from 1 to 0 and back during the process to imitate a fade-in/out.
I'm getting issue with only one line - inside a conditional statement.It's running "OK". The movie runs as I want it, but the remove/addChild transitions are not at the speed I want it at. I am getting an error message in the output, but other than that, the movie runs fine.
I made a .as Class where some graphical elements are spawned into the stage. However, the Flash (.fla) have some internal graphics that are supposed to be over the graphical elements spawned from the custom class.I tried to make another layer over the layer where the as3 Class is being called, but unfortunately it doesn't do anything, the graphic from the .as still appearing over the internal .fla graphics.
and then putting in values? Coz i need it for buttons, and diagonal popping doesnt work. So i was wondering if i could just put it on keyframes, and then select bounce or elastic.
i am working on movie clip that will change dimensions ( width and height ) depending on the loaded picture size .I made an easing transformation and works fine.
on (release) { this.onEnterFrame = function() { _root.box._width = _root.box._width+(200-_root.box._width)/2;[code]......
I think that it will be much more flashy if I make this transformation bouncy or elastic .I started by searching for tutorials but most of them were about elastic scaling (the shape is changing as one peace )But nothing about sizing , I mean putting a specific value for width and height .
I have a serie of movie clip parts from a menu. Each movie clip has an elastic effect on rollover with the following code. it is ok but not smooth enough I wonder how I could smooth the effect. Is there a function for this ?
I've been searching Google and this site for tutorials for this and can't find anything which seems to fit what I'm looking for. I'm trying to divide the screen in 2 and then allow user to rollover the middle of screen - when they do, depending which direction they drag, the bottom or top of the screen bulges and then springs back into place. [code]...
I'm trying to find a way to do a cable in papervision(great white) that has the behavior(gravity and elasticity) like the following two links:url... Any clues as to how should I approach this?
I'm currently creating a navigation bar for a project using flash cs4, action script 3.
As you can see in the picture there is a navigation bar, and inside this bar there is a small rectangle and two lines (located at the first located at x=25 and the second x=555).
I want the rectangle to follow the mouse but be slightly delayed (elastic?).. Another requirement is that rectangle only moves on the x axis and therefore the y axis doesn't change(it is y=68), but doesn't move further than the two lines. The rectangle is a movie clip and its name is 'rectangle'
I pretty much want it exactly the same as this [URL] except the ball can only move on the x-axis and in between the two lines.
I've seen it done on sites, and it's totally baffled me. And I'm not talking about those nifty effects where the line twists, and flexes when it bounces back to it's original size, I'm stuffed just with making a straight line have an elastic feel.Here's what I want to do.Have the bottom of the line anchored, and the top part linked to an object which I can move with the mouse. Moving that object will not only stretch or shrink the line, but it would also change it's angle based on where the object is.
I've attached some images for reference, but as I make my window larger the bottom of my stage gets cut off. I'm working off of a website template and am not particularly sure how the elastic function works. I've had some success changing the code to
Code: Stage.align = "T"; and Stage.scaleMode = "showAll";
but then there are just solid blocks on either side of the background image that don't look very good.
so the bottom will be locked in place and not get cut off when resizing the window.
I'm looking for an AS solution to creating an elastic screen transition. I want the screen to stretch and snap into position, before loading the contents any ideas on where to start?
Ive tried searching with no luck. I know about the Tween class and all of the easing libraries, but I want to know how to generate elastic movement in an onEnterFrame. Im not very good at applying mathematical concepts into flash,
