I need to use tween alpha, but I want to change the duration of the tween with some buttons. Does anybody have any suggestion or example?I think that it is possible if I use variable for the duration and create a new Number by each button, but I don't know how. The tween is as below:var TweenPulseA:Tween = new Tween (right_mc, "alpha", None.easeOut, right_mc.alpha, 1, pd, true);
View 8 Repliesi have a tween function which fades in a display object over time.
when i set my tween duration to 0 nothing happens. isn't the tween suppose to animate in 0 seconds (or frames) to emulate no animation at all?
new Tween(this, "alpha", None.easeOut, 0.0, 1.0, 0, true);
Is it possible to tween an object, but have it move along its path without any easing or duration, so it always moves at the same pace. For instance, if the path were looping around the screen, and zig zagging, or w/e it does; it would always go at the same speed, like 2 pixels a second. I use TweenMax.
View 2 RepliesI have an object in a Movieclip that I currently have a tween set up for. I set it up on the stage, not with actionscript.I need to dynamically change the duration of this tween. I have not found reference to a way to do this.I don't mind dynamically creating the tween if I need to, setting the initial duration in code, but I still have not found any reference to changing the duration dynamically.
View 2 RepliesI have motion tween made on the stage that follows a custom path. It's a bus going along its route. instead of dragging out the frames to get it to be the right length ( i have multiple bus tweens running) is there a way to export the tween for actionscript or xml and adjust the total duration of the tween as one would a normal tween created in actionscript?
View 1 Repliesis it possible to make the duration of a movieclip equal the duration of the preloader, i mean is it possible to make something like, the time the preloader needs to reach the 100% = the duration of the movieclip? i'm using AS 3.0 and flash CS4 just in case it helps here is my code for the loader:
Code:
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
function loadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
var percentLoaded:Number = event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal;

I am creating a load of tween classes, but the outcome of the tween, the "end" variable, depends on a users action, e.g. a combo box selection...How can I feed this through into the end variable in the tween class.THis was my educated guess, but it doesn't want to work?...
ActionScript Code:
my_Combobox.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, Asizes);
var CanvasType:String

Has anybody seen a Tweener (I do not want to use original Adobe ones) that tweens a custom variable.
For example, I have a class called Car, and it has a parameter named "speed". How can I tween this parameter (car.speed) - let's say from 50-80.
I'm a few days into learning flash AS3 and I'm stuck. So i have movie clip that is made up of smaller clips, and I want to change the opacity of one of the sub clips. Here's my code so far

This is my first time working with flash and actionscript. when my project increased in size, it became frustrating to look through 2 or 3 hundred lines of code to find my mistakes. I decided to code in frames, so that one animation or movieclip could be handled by each frame, making it easy to edit each individually. So far so good, but i am trying to reuse a tween from an earlier frame, and it doesn't seem to work. I was under the impression that if you define a variable in a previous frame, you can use it in a later frame.
here's what it looks like
(frame 5)
var closeMenu:Tween = new Tween(mainMenu_mc, "x", Strong.easeOut, 238, 900, 3, true);
there is a frame in between that does: gotoAndStop(20);I want the animation to start right when it gets to frame 20:
(frame 20)
closeMenu.start();
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I can copy and paste the original var and change the name from closeMenu to, say, closeMenu2 and it will work fine, but I feel like what I did should work.
How do I pass a variable into a Tween, lets say youve got a Tween like this[code]...
View 7 RepliesI have several objects referencing one value in a number, and I need to tween this number but I cant figure out how.I'll use whatever, the built in tweens or tweener or anything.I cant figure out how to reference the value of the variable, since its not a display object and you cant just say myDisObj.y or something like that.If theres no way to do this i'll just have all of the display objects reference from one's property.

I have a class which load and play a flv video file. My problem is, How can I get the flv`s duration in my main code? .. This is my video class:
package src {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.media.Video;[code]....
After running program I have " Time: 6.76" in output windows and it plays flv fine, which is correct but I want something like var myTD:int = Veed.getDuration(); in my main class to get the duration.
I was wondering if it is possible to get the duration of an MP4 video. I am attempting to make a scrubber bar for my video player following Lee's tutorial however in the video he uses an FLV with metadata. Is there any way to produce the same effect with an MP4?
View 3 RepliesMy project is about a video player who read an xml list, but I have to play FLV video from an exact point, so I'm using xmoov-php, and it works perfectly. My problem is that I have to calculate this point from the total duration of the xml list (the sum of every FLV duration it cointains)... so I have to get the duration of every FLV in the list.
I know I can use onMetaData for get the duration, but I need it of ALL the video in the list, and it works only if I play the single video, don't it? And I cannot play every video in the list for obtain it... I also tried to put the play() function in a for-cicle, but it doesn't work: it gets me the duration of only the last video in the list cause is the last element the for-cicle passed trought.
Is there another method for get the duration without have the FLV to play?

I have a project that requires a rollover. When the object is rolled over, a quote animates (fades in). On roll out, it fades out. The easy way would be to do it on the timeline, but if the roll over isn't long enough for the animation (fade in) the roll out starts at 100% alpha then down to 0%.
how to expand the animation for 3 more quotes.

Is it possible using command line, or a php file to get the duration of an flv file using the flash media server. I used the flvcheck file to fix the meta data, and was using the duration operator but it didn't come up with anything. I am guessing the duration operator just shows if there is errors with this?
