ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Shape Rotation At It's Center Point?
Jun 14, 2011I draw a shape,like follows:
var shape1:Shape;
shape1=draw();

Then I want to rotate the shape at it's center point(200,202) by using shape1.rotation=50,but I find the shape don't rotate at the the center of it's shape. How to realize the function which make shape rotate at its center point?

Jan 7, 2010I have a movieclip and when I do 3D rotation from Transform panel, It rotates perfect, center is in the middle of image, and when I apply mc.rotationY, rotation center is in left of the image, aren't 3D rotation from Transform panel and mc.rotationY from AS same? what's up?

Jul 15, 2011i have the follow issue :
I have a point which is setted at the border on a component, with changed transform point to the center of a component in order to match the component rotation.
the important part is when i try to get the point XY after rotation - they remains the same as before rotation.
how to get XY, after rotation ( changeing point.rotation property to specific degrees of rotaion )
ActionScript 3.0 :: Finding A Point Relative To A Center Point?
Nov 9, 2010I'm trying to figure out how to find a point relative to the center of an object, modified by its rotation. For example, in the attached swf, I've been messing around trying to draw trails to a bitmap, coming out of the thrusters. I didn't have a problem at first, but as the ship rotated, the lines that were being drawn wouldn't remain relative.
http:[url]....
I'm sure this is because I have no idea what I'm doing, and I've just been sort of idioting my way through it. That aside, is there an easy way to find the point I'm looking for? For instance, say I want a point at Y -14 of my ship, but I want that to remain relative to the ship as it rotates.
ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Center A Rotation
Jul 13, 2008As you can see in my code, I'm trying to adjust on the fly the x and y properties so that the movieclip gives the impression to rotate from its center and not from its corner at 0,0
Code:
var myclip:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
myclip.buttonMode = true;
myclip.graphics.beginFill(0);
[code]....
but it doesn't work and the clip does not rotate well
AS3 :: Flex - How To Do 3D Rotation Around Center Using Matrix3D
Dec 14, 2009I am trying to rotate a Sprite in three dimensions around its centerpoint, and I am struggling to understand some of the behavior of matrix3D.
Ive overridden the set rotationX, rotationY, and rotationZ methods of the Sprite as follows:
override public function set rotationX (_rotationX:Number) : void {
this.transform.matrix3D.prependTranslation(this.width/2.0, this.height/2.0, 0);
this.transform.matrix3D.prependRotation(-this.rotationX, Vector3D.X_AXIS);
[Code].....
I am using prependTranslation to correct the centerpoint of the rotation, and the first prependRotation to cancel out any previously-applied rotation.
Testing it out, rotationX works exactly as expected, and the Sprite rotates around its horizontal axis.
rotationY and rotationZ also appear to work fine. However, there is one problem: whenever rotationY or rotationZ are set, all of the other rotation values change as well. This is not a problem with rotationX -- if I set rotationX, nothing else changes. But if I set rotationY or rotationZ all the rotation values change, which is a problem for my app (which is trying to save and restore values).
I think I am just lacking some understanding about what is going on with matrix3D. How can I implement this so there is no interdependence between the values?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Off-center Rotation Of A Sprite?
Aug 19, 2010As is well demonstrated by a Google search, the rotationX, rotationY, and rotationZ properties turn a display object around the center.
That's all well and good, but I want to rotate a display object about a different point.
I can't believe there isn't a way to do this, but I don't see anything that addresses this question specifically.
Flash :: Change Center Of Rotation Box2d?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotation Around Center With Registration In Top Left
Jun 20, 2011I coded an entire file based on the top left registration point of my movie clip. I want it rotate it to point at the cursor, but since the registration point isn't in the middle.. its not a perfect rotation around the center of the mc. Is there anyway to rotate it around the center of the movie clip without changing the registration point?
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, aimBall, false, 0, true);
function aimBall(event:Event):void {
ball_mc.rotation = getAngle(ball_mc.x, ball_mc.y, mouseX, mouseY) -90;
trace(ball_mc.rotation);
} function getAngle(x1:Number, y1:Number, x2:Number, y2:Number):Number {
var radians:Number = Math.atan2(y1-y2, x1-x2);
return rad2deg(radians);
} function rad2deg(rad:Number):Number {
return rad * (180/Math.PI);

View 6 RepliesDial In Anchor Point For 3D Rotation?
Jul 13, 2009Flash knows where the anchor point is in 3D space in order for the symbol to rotate around it, but I can't seem to figure out how to see the coordinates of the anchor point or type in new ones. Please tell me how to do this. I am already very annoyed that Lynda, a pay service, doesn't think this is vital information. Apparently they think we would never want to do anything more visually stimulating than one simple spinning logo! But I digress...
Just to be clear, I know how to move the anchor point visually on the stage, but I want accuracy. I want to be able to give two symbols the exact same coordinates to rotate around.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotation Around A Point, With Easing?
Jan 6, 2012I have encountered a need to build what amount to classic boardgame spinner.
1. When you click on the spinner it spins clockwise
2. There are several places where it can stop.
When the user clicks the spinner I run a method to determine where (what target) it should stop on.
How can I make the spinner spin a few times, decrease in speed (ease) then stop at a certain angle?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Setting The Rotation Point?
Oct 26, 2004i'm working on a flash game at the moment, and i would like to know if i am able to set the point that the movieclip rotates around using actionscript.
i don't want to do it by simply moving all of the contents of the movieclip closer or nearer. is there any other way of doing it? i couldn't find any simple functions for it. am i just going to have to use some complicated maths?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change The Rotation Point Of A Sprite?
Feb 4, 2008I'm attempting to write a racing game. I've loaded in my image, I brought it to the stage and now, all I want to do is rotate it from its' center and not upper left corner.
The code:
racer.rotation += 5;
rotates from the upper left corner. How do I rotate from the center of the car/sprite? I've tried putting it into a container but I'm unsure on the coordinates of the container because I tried to set the x,y coordinates to half the sprite image but y'know, it's not doing what I expect it to.
ActionScript Code:
if (arrowLeft) {
var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
[Code]....
I will never sneer at another racing game! I didn't think it would be this hard to do a simple rotate of an image!

ActionScript 2.0 :: Rotation Around Simulated Registration Point?
Oct 31, 2003I want to have arm movement such as the forearm rotating about the arm where the elbow should be the problem is the registration point is at the shoulder for arm. I want the forearms registration to be constantly equal to a simulated registration point where the elbow should be as the arms registration point would be at the shoulder. I need to do it without nesting (a movieclip within another) is it possible. I tried using a constant distant between the two clips but it doesn't work. Don't know I have to use trigonometry or not
I think in brief what I trying to accomplish is
onEnterFrame=function(){
arm._x=shoulder._x
arm._y=shoulder._y
arm._x=simulated_x (where elbow would be)
arm._y=simulated_y (where elbow would be)
}

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: 3D Rotation For Symbol About Y Axis Using Pivot Point
Nov 13, 2011I am trying to rotate a symbol about the y-axis, 45 degrees one direction, then back to center, then 45 degrees the other direction. Seems like a relatively simple task, except here is what happens.
Here is the object with no rotation:
Here is the object rotated exactly 45 degrees:
And here is the object rotated exactly -45 degrees:
I need the object to rotate the same as it did the first time but in reverse, otherwise "45" and "-45" are generally worthless numbers to refer to. Is it something to do with the pivot point? I made sure the registration point was in the center when I created the symbol. It doesn't seem to be pivoting the object around the center though. How do I rotate about the y-axis using a pivot point that is actually in the center and gives the same (but opposite) effect when rotating it one way versus the other?
