Jun 19, 2009It is a simple matter to place your object in a random place on the stage and not have it hanging over the edge, like so:[code]But for some reason I am having great difficulty coming up with a solution to how the random placement might work once the object has been rotated. and the registration point is no longer in the global upper-left corner. This might be easy if the rotation was a fixed # but I am rotating randomly along the whole spectrum.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Random Placement Of MC Inside Another MC, Rather Than On Main Timeline
Jul 12, 2002I need to randomly position identical symbols in a movie - I have found a way I can do it in the main timeline using this code:
n = 10;
while (n>0) {
duplicateMovieClip ("/r1", n, n);
n = n-1;
[Code]....
The problem is that the _x and _y parameters only seem to work in the main timeline, and I need the whole thing to be self-contained inside a movie clip, so that I can easily paste it into other Flash movies (about 75 of them). Is it possible to specify a random location inside a MC?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Object Placement Detecting Between Layers?
Nov 2, 2009I am trying to create a system for a Tower Defense that detects if an tower or some structure can be placed on the grid.
The conditions are that the grid must be free of any structures and within the area that allows structures to be built (not on enemy path). I've seen many games do this already, so there's probably something out there. I just can't find it, although I understand the logic.

View 9 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: [MX] Dynamic MC Placement
Oct 13, 2003is it possible to get an uh... "absolute" X and Y for _root.dropDown1MC.listMC.item? As is stands, I'm placing dropDown2MC on the stage using the following code: [AS]_root.attachMovie("dropDown2", "dropDown2", 30, {_x:_xmouse, _y:_ymouse});[/AS] and that gets it on the stage, but it doesn't function as I need it. In a perfect world, I'd like to place dropDown2MC at the X and Y of item, BUT, there is a mask to only show a certain area of listMC (it's how I'm making a scrollable dynamically populated list).
So, is there a way to get some sort of absolute value, relative to root or something, of item's X and Y coordinates? Sorry if this is a bit complicated... I'm trying to be as clear as possible, but you know how hard that can be when you're connected to Flash directly though a firewire cable to the brain

View 0 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Random Tween Of Certain Object
Aug 23, 2010What I want to achieve is a script that creates a random tween of a certain object (a button object in this case), within a confined space (i.e. don't move the button out of visibility completely). My basic idea is:
a) for each button (there will be about 5 or 6 buttons in total), get its position.
b) for each button, move (randomly) either left or right by X pixels and (randomly) either up
Or down by Y pixels (where X and Y are random numbers within a specified range, e.g. random number between 10 and 40 pixels for instance). [However, before moving the object, determine if the new coordinate will put the object out of visibility. If it will, repeat step b) until it won't put it out of visibility. if actionscript has while loops, I'm sorted]
c) repeat from a [is there something like javascript's setInterval() for actionscript?].

Randomly Inserted Pictures X & Y Placement?
Jun 1, 2011I managed to make some code that works perfectly which, when the flash game is launched it randomly inserts a picture from the list you give it (word1.png, word2.png etc.)It works fine! But the problem is the place in which it appears, when i start the pictures appear in the top left corner of my flash game, but I want them to appear at preferably the location of a symbol or the x & y coordinates I specify (In actions obviously, i dont want to type these coordinates in game :P).Btw here is the code
var _loader:Loader = new Loader;
var _pictureArray:Array = ["word1.png", "word2.png", "word3.png"];
var _whatPicture:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*3);

Movie Clip Creation And Placement?
Sep 12, 2009When you make a movie clip, and have it open, does it have a physical 'place' on your pasteboard or main timeline?
For instance, when I test my 'scene' (as opposed to movie) my clip will be out of whack and off to the side of my movie viewer.
Then when I place the clip in my main timeline, i have to monkey around with it to get it to line up. I get a circle and a blue line at the top, but not sure what that space corresponds to.
Is there a good tut out there for movie clip creation and placement? It feels really sloppy the way Im doing it.
Flex :: Placement Of Legend For A Chart?
Jun 22, 2009I would like to be able to specify the placement of a legend for a linechart. Currently, it continues to appear to the right of the chart. I have tried playing with the width/height of the chart to no avail... Putting the legend before the linechart in the mxml causes it to appear to the left. I can't seem to get it appear at the bottom though. I can't seem to find any good examples for this. They don't seem to specify anything but the legend usually shows up below the chart, I can't seem to do it.
