I've got a script that let's me drag the mask with by clicking and dragging it with with my mouse. Currently the mask will move along x and y axis. I would like it to move only on the x axis.[code]...
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to grasp how functions and motion tweening works.
Heres my question. How do i make an object move along the y axis once it has reached its x axis target?
HEre is the code, that i got from here.
and what in this code is making the MC ease out?[code]...
I want to recreate the same effect (this has been done) but with a little twist, and I do not know how to code the mask with Action Script.What I want to achieve is this:
1. Lock my mask on the Y axis;
2. When I mouse over it, the mask would move up and down;
3. The mouse cursor would disapear while being in the mask.
My flash file is almost complete. I just need the code to move the mask.
I've got a 3D tween I would like to apply a mask to but am having a difficult time doing so. I'm guessing this is as a result of the tween that is happening on the Z-axis..?if this is the case then setting a mask movie clip to one increment higher on the Z-axis and setting the mask MC's layer to Mask should work; it's not, however.

Just making the move to AS3 so bare with me. I used a tutorial on senocular for attaching mcs to stage with random positioning and y position sorting. What I am trying to do now is have the clips move along their respective x axis back and foward in a random amount of pixels. Say move 33pixels left, flip then move 12 pixels right and so on....
ActionScript Code:
// The number of trees to generate
var treeCount:int = 50;
var velocities:Dictionary = new Dictionary();

I want to move MC_char on x axis. I have two sideways moving clip of moving man.if I move my charater on x axis it should move on the same with the enternal movement of MC.
View 2 RepliesI'm making a Website, where the the menu will have a luminous movieclip which follows the menu items X axis around and stays there.I wan't to confine the movement to the menu only. Once it leaves the area, the bar stops moving.This is what I have so far:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mouseMove);
function mouseMove(event:MouseEvent) {
menubar_mc.x = mouseX;
}
have two sets of movie clips. I'm communicating to these movie clips with another program via binary sockets. For the first set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will jump to the frame corresponding with that number. for ex: if the incoming data from the socket is (mc7+3), then movieclip 7 will jump to frame 3.
For the second set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will move location across the screen, by the y coordinate moving to the # given by the socket...thats a little confusing. for ex: if the incoming data from the socket is (mc4+500), then movieclip 4 will move so that it's y coordinate is at 500.
Here is my code:
Code:
var socketBuffer:String = "";
s.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA, onDATA);
function onDATA(e:ProgressEvent):void{

i got rid of some errors. the first part is working where the movie clips jump to the frame they are told to so no errors there. but when i try to move the movie clips in reference to the FADER array, (along the y axis) nothing happens. (look at bold part of code)
theres also another method i'm willing to approach but i'm not sure how to go about it. rahter than using the FADER array, I would rewrite the code for each individual movie clip, so that it says "if incomign data names a movie clip and gives a number, change the named movie clip's y coordinate to the incoming number"
I'm trying to a make a small animation, and I was wondering if there is a way to make the flash "camera" move on the x, y, and z axis on a specific frame? LMK if you need more details.
View 7 RepliesI want to make a handle pull up and then down through an arc. Now using the startDrag on the Handle won't make the handle pivot around an axis. It needs to move a bit like a (one arm bandit) or (The old coin Poker Machines) I have attached a basic file to show the problem I have so far.
View 2 RepliesI want to move an object along the x axis continuously after a button is pressed until the object reaches a point. How can I achieve this?

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a simple game and I need to move objects down the y-axis from the top of the screen to the bottom.I want one object specifically to randomly appear and then exit the screen. I'm using a random number generator to test against and call the object to the screen and to move from top to bottom when the random number is greater than 950.The problem is that when the random number generator, generates two numbers in a row over 950 the objects skips back to the top.The animation is nested within the mc. I tried animating it with as3 but it jumps down the screen and doesn't look like a smooth animation.Is their a way that I can track the progress of the mc animation and use an && conditional to only play the animation when it's on, say frame one of the animation?What I want is to say if the movie clip is at frame one(stopped) and the random number is greater than 950 play the clip. If the clip is begin played not at frame one. Don't replay it.[code]
View 1 Repliesis there a easy way to make an object move along the x axis in one direction then when it reaches that direction it moves back. with a smoove movement.

View 9 RepliesI have one very large movieclip, and I'd like to create a very smooth (eased), tween, that moves it around the stage, on mouse move. so far, I've read the "get mouse direction" article, and that's helped a lot. and I'm calculating the distance the mouse is moving.. and that's all good and dandy,.. but I'm having a little trouble converting that into a smooth scroll.. I'd like to use tweenmax preferably, and not an on enterframe.
View 14 RepliesI'm trying to do a simple game in which you have to move a frog in X axis to catch the falling flies. sorry if I mistake some words cuz I talk in spanish It's already done, but it has 2 bugs and I dunno what the reasons are
The 1st bug, Each time the game is over, and you click in "PLAY AGAIN ", I could notice that the frog movement (which you can move by pressing the keys) is increased a little; for example if you played 6 times the 7th you can reach the opposite side by pressing the corresponding key 2 times, despite the fact that in the code i did write only +15px for the right when you press right arrow and -15px for the left when you press the left one (on X axis) for each time the key is pressed

I try to move a map in a mask with an Event; I have a drag move that works perfectly but I want move automaticly the map on an Event: I make this without success
ActionScript Code:
var my_tween:Tween = new Tween(myMask,"x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,3, true);
The mask move but I don't want : just the map inside ...
map.mask = myMask // the mask is apply with this !
i have a problem in moving the mask with mouse
what is the right code
here is the code i use
// myImage is bakground image
// myMask is masking
stop();

Mask causing text under it to appear to move...I have a mask that scrolls to the right over text.Before the mask comes on stage the same text is on a different frame before it in the exact same coordinates. But when the mask appears it makes the text under it seem to slightly move to the left. I've realized it is the mask that makes this seem to happen.I'm probably not doing something right with the mask, but I'm not sure.

I have tried everything I can think of but I just can't get my mask to move with my content when my stage is resized.
I am using flex and I embed symbols/assets in an assets class then instantiate them in my main class and call addChild on them.
I have a Sprite (maskSprite) that is the same size as the content, and I use this as a mask, calling
Code:
this.mask = maskSprite in my main.
This works fine but when I resize the swf it stays at the top left of the window when my content moves (I am using stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE). I have used maskSprite as a non-mask and it moves with the content fine, but when it is a mask it doesn't.
I have a question, and I find it hard to find resources on it. I have two layers, and another layer with an image of a broom on it. I want to use the broom to move over layer2, and reveal the layer beneath it. Kind of making a sweeping game. Frankly my search efforts on google have only come up with alot of masking, but I am sure you need actionscript to make the broom move with the mouse.
View 1 RepliesI have a small mask that I need to animate across the stage in response to clicking various buttons. It has to go a different distance each time depending on which button is clicked along the x axis. I can get at the starting and ending x co-ordinates. I need to develop a set of x coordinates so that the mask starts moving fast and slows down as it gets nearer - kind of like the easing effect. I figured using some sort of simple 1/x^2 expression and have spent an hour or so fiddling in excel. Trouble is its a LONG TIME since I did maths, and I can't remember what formula to use. Have tried google with "parabola", "simple curves" etc.
View 2 RepliesIm in need of a simple code which makes a MovieClip move side to side horizontally preferably using the attachMovie function.The MovieClip must not go off the screen so the movement will have to be limited within the stage size.
