where I can find a tutorial or information about how to make a fake 3d effect by using several layers that move at different speeds when you move the mouse. See [URL] projectx and click on 'Evolution of snowboarding'. Simulating 3d by moving three or more layers at different speeds related to mouse pointer offset from the center of the stage.
View 2 RepliesI'm learning AS3 and I'm trying to build a little interaction where I can throw a square off the stage. It just need to stay on the x-axis, to be thrown either to the left or right.I found quite a few tutorials where it involves physics. I don't need anything as complicated as that. With mine, as long as you click down on the square and throw it a bit, doesn'tmatter how hard that throwing action is, the square will always be thrown off the stage, depending on the direction of your mouse.I kind of have the idea in my head that the "throw" feel can be done with tween in a movieclip (since it only need to go to either left or right), which will be activated depending on the direction of the mouse.

Say I have three Window classes. One is a DraggableWindow, one is a ScalingWindow, and one is a BorderWindow.
I want to mix and match new subclasses at runtime without having to make tons of new permutations of Window subclass possibilities.
Sure, I can implement these behaviors of the Window class as interfaces, but I would still have to account for all the permutations of interface combinations.
The following code is how you call a function with an event listener. There is a disadvantage to this however: you can -only- call loginCheck with a MouseEvent. If I want to call the function through code, I can't just write loginCheck(); and have it work.
[Code]...
But I have always wondered if there was a way to run a function with a MouseEvent parameter through code. Is there any way to fake a MouseEvent and send it as a parameter to the function?
I have yet to find a good and simple tutorial regaurding the skinning of the scrollBar component so I am trying to fake it...
Simply put I have MC buttons underneath the scroll bar and the bar itself is invisible... I need to know what the name of the actual scrubber bar (the one you drag arround) is called so i can attach a movieClip to it and match it's width/height and X position
does anyone know it? --- or Can someone simply explain how i would go about actually skinning it? Everything i have seen says open haloTheme or sampleTheme and edit those but I just want to change it once (not perminantly).
I want a generic function that lets me align a child object to the bottom edge of a parent object. The problem is that the parent object can either be a simple movie clip or the Stage. With Stage, I would have to use the stageHeight property rather than the normal height propery.

Basically that method of fitting a bitmap texture onto a parallelogram, by splitting the parallelogram into two triangles and skew/shearing the two separate copies of the texture to be lined up with it's respective triangle.Senocular wrote a pretty good tutorial on it, but I'm stuck on some little details and or conceptual stuff, I'm not sure.First question, in the transform matrix, the b and c multipliers (skew and shear), what does it mean exactly? I played around with it and found that shearing by a factor of one, the angle formed by the slope (the slope of the two top or bottom 'points') of the shape was 45˚. So, 1 = 45; 0.5 = 22.5, etc. Am I on the right track or was the 45 angle observation just a coincidence? If so, how exactly do I find the skew factor?
View 1 RepliesI'd like to be able to click on each of the buttons and have the background color change and also have its color name loaded in the dynamic text field. E.g. Clicking the white square would change the background color to white and should also display the text ''white'' in the dynamic text box. I've sorted out the colour changing part with the following code:

I listen to internet radio at [URL] and it works pretty well, except for one minor issue. The Flash applet that runs the radio player has a timer on it, where if you don't move the mouse over the player every once in a while, it decides you're idle and shuts off the stream, even if you're not actually idle, but just working on something else with the radio player running in the background.
Is there any way I can send a fake MouseOver message to this applet to keep it from cutting me off in the middle of a song, maybe with a GreaseMonkey script? I'm using Firefox.

View 2 RepliesI am working on this one project that has a couple of movieclips (already placed on stage) which have a custom class set to export via the Library. Each of those custom classes loads an external SWF using URLRequest().

View 4 RepliesI want a chart that has several separate series running in rows across. They are largely separate charts and should not overlap, but all share the same horizontal datetimeaxis. They don't share the same y-axis, however and that's where I'm getting stuck.I have tried having a linechart series and then a plotchart series, but it will only allow a single <mx:series> per chart without having them inside the same series which as far as I can tell will place the charts on top of each other in the z-axis. I can stack them and have them completely separate charts, but it was proving to be somewhat irritating having them align correctly.
Is there any reasonable way of combining multiple charts into one like this? Basically having rows in a table where each row is a different chart but the columns are consistent. or am I going to be best served just by stacking separate ones? an illustration of what i'm going for is here: http:[url]........
