ActionScript 3.0 :: Tween X Position Is Reset When Using Width Parameter?
May 12, 2011
I'm trying to make some manual transitions. Because I don't know AS3, and I'm building this from the help of Google, I've started with a simple "blind" transition just to figure out the works.
The issue is that when I expand the width, it seems as though all my AS3 created sprites seem to reset their x position, and sit on the left. That or 15 of the tweens aren't working.
Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
function vBlinds(){
var tweens:Array=new Array(16);
[code]....

Once I've set either the width or percentWidth property on a flex label, is there a way to reset the width to its default (i.e., the width of the text plus padding)? I'm using the label as a renderer. In some cases, I'd like it to automatically size to the text, and in other cases, I'd like it to be a percentage width of its container. Obviously, I could use two separate labels, one for each of the above cases, but I'm curious if it's possible to reset the label to its default behavior.

ok - i'm totally confused here... this is probably a stupid noob question... just recently got flash 8 - upgrading from mx2004, but had previously been using flash 6 components and AS1, due to files that had already been written in mx... my problem is this - i have a dynamic text field, populated with data from a LoadVars object. When a button is pressed, different data is loaded into the text field, and the scrollBar is supposed to reset to the top (position=0)

I am working on to slide a movieclip across the stage.The movie clip is five times the width of the stage and I am using the Tween Class to move it across the stage when a button is pressed.The interaction I want is that when the button is pressed the movie clip moves a certain amount.If the button is pressed again it moves further.The script I have come up with though is taking the movieclip back to the original position of the movieclip and then moving it as opposed to moving it from the position it reached after the first button click.I have tried a few things but nothing is working.The script I am using at present is:[code]

I am trying to understand the thinking behind motion tweening using AS3 (rather than doing it on the timeline).I am trying to create a simple platform game, and while this is simply a learning project, I have an movieclip instance on the stage, and using basic x+5 logic I can get the instance to move left and right on the stage accordingly.Trying to make the instance 'jump' is a bit trickier. This is the code I am using:
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;[code].....
I thought this code would move the instance from it's current y-position and tween it to it's highest jump point. From here I planned to use a MOTION.FINISH event to tell it to tween back to it's original position.Something strage happens though, rather than tween from the current y position and move up, the instance instantly transforms it's position to y+100 and then tween back to the original position. So it kind of turns out that it is the second part of the jumping action that I want to create.

I am trying to call a sound to play whenever the UP key is down. I want the sound to stop and reset to position zero when UP is released. Everything works except the sound will not reset to 0. Here is what isn't working:
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){
if(sound.position == 0){
sound.start(0,0);[code]....
When ran, the program plays the sound once, and will never play it again because I can't get the sound.position to reset to 0.

I have a tween set on a timer:
var manTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,14);
manTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveMan);
function moveMan(e:TimerEvent):void {[code]....
I just need to make the tween's position relative to it's current position, as opposed to starting at the stage's 0 position then moving the the stage's -40 position. It needs to start at its current position the move -40 from that position.

I know this is a dumb question, but it would've taken me forever to search through all the rest of the posts regarding Scrolling Text boxes. So I have text scrolling in a dynamic text box. Buttons control it's movement, up and down with (scroll --) and (scroll ++). Let's say I read to the bottom of this text, and then load a new file into this same box. When I do this, the new text is scrolled to the bottom. My Question: How do I reset the scrolled position back to the top for each new file that I load??

i'm trying to zoom in on a picture at the specific spot where the mouse is clicked. ie if the mouse is clicked in the lower left corner, the pic gets bigger from there, not the center of the pic. the only way i can think of to do this is to reset the registration point to the clicked position. is this possible? is there another way to go the job done?

I'm using the dynamic scroller found on the kiropa site found here [URL]..In the action script on the ScrollBar, I can't find what variable to change to reset the position of the bar to the top of the scroller when I use the same dynamic text area for other content. It loads just fine, but if the scroller was left at the bottom, it stays there on the new text until you move it a bit, then the text catches up.
I'm hoping to find the variable and reset it when the new text loads.

I'm trying to set up a movie that allows me to flip through a two page brochure(double sided) like a book. I'm basically shirking the front page down and once its at zero, expanding the page that would exist on the back of that page. I can get this to work to open the flyer all the way to the back, but I can't get it to go the other way. When I try to trace the width of each object, it tells me they are undefined.
Am i running into trouble because I'm giving telling the clip CGInside2_MC directions early on inthe script, then again later?
I put the file up online here and the code is below.

//OPEN Ft Cover
trace(_root.Corporate_MC.CGFront_MC._width);
var frontcover:String;

I've got 3 pages each with their own portfolio loaded dynamically from an XML file. Everything is working great with the thumbnails i added using the "adding thumbnail" tutorial. There's only one quirk I can't figure out. If you've scrolled to the end of the thumbnails on the first portfolio, the scroller stays in the same place when you go to the next portfolio rather than reloading back at the beginning. I hope that makes sense because it's hard to explain, but the site is [URL] here's the partial code for the thumbnails...

I'm working on a project for my class using flash as2. I want it to be able to, when you click on a button, it drops a movie clip down the screen, essentially just adding _y to it, but then when it reaches 300y coordinate it resets the movieclip to its original position so that you can click the button and replay the same function. I'm not sure if this would be create empty movie clip each time you release button. I'm quite lost in this area so i dont have any actionscript to show, I really dont know where to begin. <3

Im a 100% beginner in actionscript so heres my question, as dumb as it may sound.
I want a shape to travel from px 0 on the x-axis to px 740.
The startposition on the y-axis needs to be random, and between 140 and 180.
I have tried the following code:
startY = Math.round(Math.random()*(180-140)+140);
startX = 0;
targetX = 740;

I seem to be having problems with rectangles moving from their assigned positions when all I want to do is decrease their width.A game I'm working on simulates an explosive with a fuse. The fuse decreases in size as a clock counts down to 0.I think the problem has to do with local coordinates vs. global coords, but I'm not sure how to rectify the problem. Here is some code:
//fuse
_fuse = new Sprite();
_fuse.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);[code]........
Nowhere in my code does the x position of the fuse change.Aside from this one issue, the rect functions exactly how I want it to.

Just new in forum and just new in as3 programming. All i want to do is to make some physics simulations (i'm physics teacher...). So i made my first sim with the following code, just to simulate a simple motion with constant velocity. It works ok, except the part i need to reset the display by the means to start the motion all over again (reset button). Then the motion starts but the traces of the previous motion remains on stage. I tried the null command (sp=null) but the sim could not start again because the sp nedded to be non-null...

I have an issue with adding a reset button to my drag and drop movie clips.The problem is, if a student drags a movie clip to a wrong location on the SWF file I want them to be able to hit a reset button that would take them the same SWF that they opened and what would showup would a clear page for them to restart their drag and drop exercise.I know how to make the button for this just want the proper action script to be able for user to start over with no movie clip symbols on the page.

I've got a movieclip which I am tweening around the stage to various positions, depending on what buttons the user presses.My problem is, that currently each time the user presses a button, the movie clip shoots back to it's original position (placed on the time line), then tweens to the new position dictated by the button.
This is not what I want..I actually want the movie clip to tween from position to postition (not shoot back to it's original position each time).. I guess I need it to remember where the movie clip currently is, and then move to the new position..
here is my code for the tween..
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
ButtonOne.onRelease = function() {

I've got a movieclip with two layers - a background movieclip, and above that, a mask movieclip (as you might guess, this layer is masking the first). Due to design necessity, the mask is animated on the timeline across 60 frames.The problem arises when I use an Event.RESIZE listener to change the width of the parent movieclip when the browser window is resized. Any code to reference the mask, i.e
parentMC.contentMask.width = stage.stageWidth;
parentMC.contentMask.x = frame.width/2 - frame.contentMask.width/2;
Simply results in the mask animation not playing at all.

Do you know how to rewind a tween. but I dont want it to just snap back to the beiginning. I want it to yoyo back to the beingining without actually yoyoing many times. you know what I mean?this is the code I have which make the beginning motion I want:
public function imageSelectR(e:MouseEvent):void {
myTween = new Tween(imageLoaderHost, "z", Regular.easeInOut, 0, -100, 1, true);
myTween.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, imageSelectL);
