ActionScript 3.0 :: Apply A Tween To An Extended Textfield()?
May 19, 2011
im struggling a bit with syntax here -- i'm trying to add a method to my multiplayer flash games then when an arrow hits an enemy, it will display the dmg, while scrolling up and dropping off alpha.I seem to be having some linkage problems this is what i have:
var dmgwin:dmgtxt = new dmgtxt() //movieclip that will contain textfield
var dmgwinsub:TextField = new TextField(); //textfield that has dmg #
var tween:Tween = new Tween(dmgwinsub, "alpha", None.easeOut, 1, 0, 2, true); //an alpha
[code].....

I've created a Button in Adobe Flash CS5, it's a Symbol, and its type has been set to Button.
The button has a dynamic textfield with the instance name label.
I've set the class of this Button to MenuButton, and I've set the class to Export for ActionScript.
This is the code of the MenuButton class:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code]....
Whenever I put a string in MenuButton's constructor, label's text doesn't change.

I'm working on a little flash project to show a card game being played out. Its just playing out a set of moves - no actual logic for actually playing the game.Anyhow, what i would like to be able to do is create a tween (hope thats the right term) where a card will appear in the center of the table, and then slide over to the players hands and at the same time shrink down so i can fit a few hands on the screen. So basically i need a tween that takes an object (the card), places it on the center of the screen, and then slides over and shrinks down to a specific point. So in whatever action script calls this tween, i guess i would need to feed it two values - which card it starts with, and where the card should end up.

Flash CS4 has a feature where a tween can have more than two keyframes. If a tween has three keyframes, then changing keyframe 2 will affect the motion from keyframes 1 to 2 as well as the motion from keyframes 2 to 3. This is a very cool feature.
But there's one problem: I can only figure out how to apply an ease to the entire tween, not to the motion between two keyframes. Do you know how I can apply one ease to the motion between keyframes 1 and 2, and a different ease (or the same one a second time) to the motion between keyframes 2 and 3?
I've had two ideas so far for getting the same result:
1) Make a custom ease that includes all the eases I want. I find this too cumbersome and imprecise, unless there's a way to copy an existing curve into the space between two keyframes of a second curve (without replacing the whole second curve).
2) Split the tween at each keyframe. But then every time I want to adjust keyframe 2 I have to do it twice, and sometimes the break ends up jerking slightly. I'd really rather keep keyframe 2 a shared keyframe.

I hav created 24 frames (i use 24fps) by hand depicting a small move.Now I need to repeat this move for 1 minute and move it from left to right through the screen.is there a way to avoid copying-pasting these 24 frames and chaning them a little to the others 59 seconds by using motion tween?So, iam looking for a way to combine both the 24 frames and apply motion tween to them.

I am writing a flash card game which slides the next card onto the stage when the user presses a button.There are 24 cards, and I have written a separate tween for each one... I think there is probably a more efficient way to do this. Here is what I have:

worked, however this method (using extra sprite for a textfield) is just too dirty, let alone we want to apply filters to multiple textfields.. Anyone knows how to apply filter directly to TextField instance in AS3.0?

I really like the new tweens and motion panel that Flash added in CS4 but I'm having some problems with them that I cant find a solution to.
1. When I animate or apply a preset animation it changes the position slightly. I do work where I need things positioned exactly where I put them. For example X:70 Y:210 but when I animate it might for example change it to X:70 Y:210.5 and to make it more confusing even if I animate a group of them at the same time it only does this to some things and not all. Also if I try to change the position back manually it doesnt always let me in the properties panel. I have to go to the Motion Editor and change it there frame by frame.
2. Similar problem to above but with the Alpha property. I want to animate things where it fades on and then stays up for a few frames and then animates back off. When I try to do this using the properties panel it doesnt always let me. So for example I need my alpha values to be in this order for the 4 keyframes. 0, 100, 100, 0. But for the 0 it might force it to 3% instead of the 0 I need. Again I can only fix this by going to the Motion Editor and adjusting it frame by frame.

I have very little experience with text in flash. In a dynamic text field I know I can apply a TextFormat to the entire field but can I apply different fromatting to individual workd in the field if for example I wanted to make a word or a few words of text a hyperlink within a textfield. Can I do that or would I need to use html text?

I was interested in searching through text in a textfield, and applying text formatting to keywords. For example, every time the word 'the' appears, apply a text format that changes it to green and 14pt. Here is an example of a format and text applied to a textfield. How would I go about searching through the textfield and applying this format only to specific words? my_txt.text = 'The cat jumped over the house.'
/// my format I want to apply
with (_lt_fmt) {
align = 'left';
blockIndent = 0;

// This is an array, a list of the buttons used. var myButtons = [this.myButton_1, this.myButton_2, this.myButton_3, this.myButton_4]; // Loops on all buttons from the first to the last one for (var i=0; i<myButtons.length; i++) { // When the mouse rolls over this menu option... reduce size just a bit. // NOTICE: I'm not taking into consideration the problem of having the hit area going down and "moving" the // mouse area and out of the button (possible rollover flicking). This is just a simple example afterall.

In the above instance how would I address the problem of flickering? I think want to apply the .onRollOver to an invisible button instead. How can this be done? Im just getting started with tweening animations outside the timeline with MCTween

I'm workin' on a cool project for school. I'm loading up some text from an external XML doc, and bringing it in to a flash textField.
It's working great, but I want to do a little formatting, first off, apply a bold tag or a bold font to some headings.
Here's the .text field as I have it now:
Actionscript Code:
motorcycleInfo.text = "Make: " + bikeMaker[evt.target.selectedIndex] + "
" + "MSRP: " + bikeCost[evt.target.selectedIndex] + "
" + "Ride Category: " + bikeCategory[evt.target.selectedIndex] + "
" + "Engine Size:
[Code]....
(ps I finally figured out how to wire up my mp3's so they play, and pause, I just haven't loaded that swf up to my server... so if you press the music buttons and they don't play, that's the reason.)

I just started trying out cs4.
first time trying copy motion as actionscript.
Summary:It works when I directly paste the codes on the first frame of a blank document, with the movieclip on the stage.
BUT, if i put the motion codes in a class file, then strange compiler errors will appear in CS4 [code]...
These errors are shown without LOCATION. (i.e. cannot trace which line produces this error).
I really want to try out "copy motion as as3" in CLASS method.[code]...

I have 1 class (that is extending a UIcomponent) that is representing a component. In that component I create different instances of another class that is also a UIComponent but this class doesn't show up in de first class. I see that it is running and that it has the correct hights but I got the feeling that it doesn't show up with this hights. If I trace I see the width and height is 200 X 200 but there is still nothing visible in my component.
