I'm using Flex and AS3 (I chose Actionscript project) to make a new project. I use Tweener for all my tween animations. Well now I have written a script that when a key is pressed (left or right key) a sprite should Tween to the left or right. Now that's not working...
I've pasted the code here [URL] and I activate the keylisteners (function activateKeys) in another class. Works fine cause it traces everything.
I am executing a hittest when a chicken meets a crocodile; the chicken is afraid for the crocodile and turns back flying up in the air and back on the ground. In fact most of it works, allthough I can't get the wings to stop fluttering. As soon as the chicken returns on the ground, this must happen.This is the piece of code where it is about: (the function winger() is called once at the hittest)
[flash=]function winger()
{
var counter:int=0;[code].......
without the counter it works. changing it into an if-statement with the counter af the 2nd tweener, doens't work either.
I'm trying to trace a simple tween using Tweener, but the onComplete doesn't seem to work. Am I doing something wrong?

The problem is that no matter what file name I try to load it does trigger the onLoadError but always the onLoadInit even though the file doesn't exist. Local it's working but not online. Here's the code:

jpgListener.onLoadProgress = function(file:FileReference, bytesLoaded:Number,

When I run the above, it doesn't seem to trigger the imgDisplay or imgLoading functions(imgLoading was supposed to be progress event, but I changed it for testing).....it seems, the eventListeners are not working
I'm trying to get the id3 information from an mp3 being streamed from FMS.I followed the samples I found online and am using the following client-[code]As a note the above code works fine to play the actual file (substituting mp3: for id3:, of course) it just doesn't seem to trigger the onID3 method (I've tried onId3 which is what the samples use).I am also able to view the id3 information from windows explorer and other external readers.The platform I'm ultimately targeting is Flash Lite 3.1 AS2, but I've tried various configurations and haven't had any success.
View 1 RepliesI'm seeing inconsistent ROLL_OVER behavior. I have two movieclips (A and B) both containing an alpha=0 hit area child mc (rectangle contained in a mc symbol with the symbol's alpha set to 0 in the parent). I add the same event listener in each parent A & B:
hit.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, onRollOver, false, 0, true);
function onRollOver(e:MouseEvent):void {
trace("Mouse Rolled Over");
}
In parent A, when the cursor is over the hit area as the clip appears (using TweenLite.to(alpha), the listener above triggers properly without moving the cursor. In parent B, I have to move the curosor in order for the above listener to trigger. Moreover, in parent B, when the eventlistener is attached to the hit child mc (as shown above) rather than "this" (parent B), I actually have to remove the cursor from the hit area entirely and re-enter the hit area for the above listener to trigger? The parent mc's are loaded differently. Parent A, which works more reliably (mouse doesn't need to move in order for the listener to trigger), is pre-loaded and made visible (.visible = true). Parent B is rendered on the fly in the timeline and is a child of three levels of parents/grandparents...

Is it possible to use the Java KeyEvent to sends keys to a flash game? I would like to be able to control a flash game from a Java program I have written.
View 2 RepliesI'm building part of an UI that suggests certain words based on to the user's input. (Quit like Google's suggestions) It works quite well but one detail bothers me: When I have a list of suggestions I highlight the list-items by listening to the arrow up and down keys. When the fist element is highlighted, and the user presses the up arrow, I want the cursor to be in the Text(Input)Field again, but at the last position.
(I removed the focus from the InputField not to move the cursor in my singel line field to the first position when the up-arrow is pressed)
I set the cursor to the last Position using setSelection() but as it is the field receives the key-press after my event callback is executed and the pressing of the up-arrow in a single line field does what it always does, it places the cursor at the first position.
I considered using the CHANGE event, but as the arrow key does not actually change the content of the TextField, that is not working. Still I think that the solution might be along that way, as the CHANGE event is/would be at the end of the event-chain, where I need to do the repositioning of the cursor.
I'm creating a Golf game and I have several _mc's with a golfer swinging a club...front view, side view, back view.... I have them set up so the user can move the golfer around the screen with the arrowKeys. The spacebar activates the golfer to swing the club....But I would like the user to have more control over the amount of swing the golfer can take....ie. (full-swing, half-swing, quarter-swing, etc.)I have played several games were the space bar can be depressed for a few seconds to power up an object....the first one that comes to mind is PinBall, were the plunger is pulled back slightly with holding down the spbar for a short time, or it is pulled way back the longer you hold the spbar down. The code I have now is a basic KeyEvent Listner...
keyListener = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyDown=function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){

I'm having a bit of a problem here. As per the title, my flash swf file works fine when tested from the IDE, but when I publish it and open it through the browser, the stage doesn't seem to resize along with the window.I post below a bare-bones example. The "back" movie clip should resize, only it remains at the starting dimensions

I have an application done in flash- on the main Scene Level, everything has only one frame but I have MCs and the like that are triggered by actionscript.There are quite a few nested functions on the main actions layer as well as an "onEnterFrame" function that reloads XML data in the background, etc... but that is not the problem.
The problem is, that at one point, I am calling a few MCs that kind of close up a section of the page like blinds- and then I want a text to appear ontop of that now closed area... but if I just write...
Code:
_root.TimelineFader.BlendeT1.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.TimelineFader.BlendeT2.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.TextAboveTimeline.theMessage_txt._visible = true;
...it all happens simultaneously, of course.I guess I could check for "BlendeT1"'s (or T2's) current frame (since it's an MC)... but how do I wait while that MC runs / until it reached a certain frame? How can I keep the rest of the actionscript in the main function from continuing?
since the development of Tweener is slow I am wondering if Tweener is still the preferred lib, or if there is a different lib that is preferred?
View 1 RepliesI would like to tint a movieclip with the tweener class. This is how I tint the mc without the tween:
var c:Color=new Color();
c.setTint(0xff0000, 0.8);
clouds.transform.colorTransform=c;
it works but I would like to give it a smooth transition that's why I would use tweener.
My acitonscript level is pretty much zero and I can't figure out why this code wouldn't work. I'm not sure if I need an array. Basically I have 25 MCs, I need to tween the alpha of one of them to 100 and the rest to 0. I can't even get any of them tweening using a loop and am not sure the best way to specify which one to tween to alpha 100.
for (var i = 1; i<=25; i++) {
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
Tweener.addTween(bg_images.bg_image+i,{_alpha:0, time:.5});
}
can someone please help me install tweener AC 3.0? They say to put it in my "project source directory" I've tried many ways, google alot, still no luck, How do i find out what my "project source directory" is?
View 2 RepliesI would like to use the Tweener class, but I have no clue where I should put the files in my actionscript directory in flash.
EDIT: I tried looking up after some tutorials, everybody is talking about that I should put the "gs" folder in my fla directory, thats not really usefull if there is not even a "gs" directory in the zip I downloaded! All the files are in the "greensock" directory, but when I try to import it I get:
Code: Select all5001: The name of package 'com.greensock' does not reflect the location of this file. Please change the package definition's name inside this file, or move the file. C:gsTweenLite.as
I made a site using the Caurina Tweener class with AS3 and it works great in IE and Chrome, but for some reason in FireFox it loads really choppy and some of the color tweens dont work properly.I looked up the FAQ and info on the tweener and it doesnt say anything about trouble with FireFox, has anyone else encountered problems with Caurina Tweener class in FireFox?
View 6 RepliesUsing Tweener, is it possible to run code in between two calls to it (Tweener)?I'm a little bit familiar with Tweener and am trying to use set ChildIndex() after one call to Tweener executes and prior to running a second Tweener.[code]I'm trying to get the sprites to switch levels in the depth chart (so to speak) so that one sprite will appear on top on the first pass but then appear behind another sprite on the second pass, but it seems like the lines of code execute while the Tweener is running, and the desired effect is not happening.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a hidden, rollup/rolldown menu, that once rolled on animates up and then exposes thumbnails that will be wired in a gallery type setting. I have hit a roadblock and farily new to As3. I'm pretty sure I'm doing something simple wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. Can anyone please shed some light? I feel like there needs to be a course just in flash output errors! I'm thinking the problem is with my addThumbs(); function, but before this mass of errors, my Sprite was the source of new errors - I thought that it would be an easier option to place all of my thumbnails inside a container and then manipulate that containers alpha or presence than indiviudal items.[code]

tweener doesn't update myValue while passing the param while tweening. why?

Does anyone know how to propagate tweener mouse events only to the children of a movieclip? I have an mc with small thumbnail images inside that are also mcs. I'd like to scale them up with tweener, but I don't want to have to add a listener for every thumb (there are 50 of them). Propagating sounds like the way to go, but I'm having trouble.
Here's my code:
ActionScript Code:

Recently I found Tweener And I followed the instruction of installment, but I got a compiler error:Desc: The class or interface 'caurina.transitions.Equations' could not be loaded.Sour: import caurina.transitions.Equations;Even I run the samples downloaded from the website, I got the errors, could someone tell me why is that?
View 1 RepliesI've just come across a problem when using the caurina Tweener for AS2. It works fine with an absolute instance name, for an object on the stage; however as soon as I try to use a dynamic instance name - it stops recognizing simple properties like _x and _y, returning this Output message:
## [Tweener] Error: The property '_height' doesn't seem to be a normal object property of menu1 or a registered special property.
## [Tweener] Error: The property '_width' doesn't seem to be a normal object property of menu1 or a registered special property.
## [Tweener] Error: The property '_y' doesn't seem to be a normal object property of menu1 or a registered special property.
## [Tweener] Error: The property '_x' doesn't seem to be a normal object property of menu1 or a registered special property.
Here is a code snippet:
ActionScript Code:
_root.currentitem = 1;
_root.xpos = 0;
_root.ypos = 0;
Tweener.addTween(["menu"+_root.currentitem], {_x:_root.xpos, _y:_root.ypos, _width:85.0, _height:85.0, time:_root.clicktime, transition:_root.clicktype});
All other tweens work fine. There are objects on the stage with instance names of "menu1", "menu2" etc.
