ActionScript 3.0 :: Classic Tween Saturation Property Not Animating Like In Total Training Video?
Aug 16, 2011
John Ulliman uses actionScript3 with Flash CS3 and I have Flash CS5 which is the main difference. It appears he uses a classic tween (from CS4 and CS5's perspective).I have a thumbnail which is created as a movie symbol and when I double click on the timeline I have a tween of zero saturation (frame 1) to 100% saturation (frame 10) back to zero saturation frame 20. When I scrub the timeline the classic tween fades up and down correctly. But when I trigger the rollover (and rollout) event from the main timeline which should goto the movie instance called mThumb0.gotoAndPlay(2) starting at frame 2 for ROLL_OVER and Thumb0.gotoAndPlay(11) for the ROLL_OUT event it seems to only change the saturation a little but not touch the saturation filter.
I don't know if there is something about the different tweens (Classic and Motion) that I need to know. I don't know what the sync checkmark does but I tried it on and off with no help. I put trace statements that indicate the ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT events are being triggered and the functions the events trigger are being called correctly but I don't know how to debug what is happening with the timeline after the mThumb0.gotoAndPlay occurs.

I created a classic tween on the timeline (not with actionscript), which moves a movieclip. If I change any property of that movieclip from actionscript, that layer stops updating, even if I change the value to its initial value. Can I access that tween on the timeline from actionscript?

I'm working on an AS3 project and thought I'd save myself some scripting by using classic tweens in the timeline to transition between filters on movie clips. They look fine when testing, but when I save the project, close, then re-open later, the tweens are gone.
Is this a known bug in CS4, or is there something I'm missing about classic tweens in AS3?

I'm new for AS3. I have some question about the classic tween vs AS3 Tweening.
I tried to compare the swf file size of both.
the first one i make an animation with the classic Tween.
the second one i make an animation with AS3 Tweening.
before, i thought the script tweening one will much smaller than the classic tween one, but after i compare both, the AS3 Tweening one has bigger file size.
So my question is, 1.will the file size bigger if i use action script to move the object?
2.then what's the advantage to tween the object using AS3 for a flash website?
3.how can I compress the filesize(i'm trying to build a full flash site)?

I have just started using Flash CS5 recently and have a question about the classic tween. I have noticed that when I make a classic tween Flash automatically makes symbols out of my grouped objects. I have worked with previous versions and it was sufficient to just group my objects on the stage to make a tween. Is there a way to turn this feature off? I'm an animator and it's very annoying and messy to make a symbol out of all the objects I want to animate.

If I put any text letter of any size at the top of the stage, lets say for example a "T" of 10 pts. Then move the timeline to frame 50 and insert a keyframe and then move that "T" down to the bottom of the stage and resize it to say 50 pts. (I want the effect of the letter growing as it moves down the stage).If I then isert a Motion Tween and scrub it the letter just stays at 10 pt until the keyframe at 50is hit and then it resizes to 50. Not the effect I am looking for.But if I use the classic tween then it does do what I want which is gradually grow from 10 pts to 50 pts by the bottom of the stage.

I have asked this question in another forum but haven't got an answer yet. I have just started using Flash CS5 recently and have a question about the classic tween. I have noticed that when I make a classic tween Flash automatically makes symbols out of my grouped objects. I have worked with previous versions and it was sufficient to just group my objects on the stage to make a tween. Is there a way to turn this feature off? I'm an animator and it's very annoying and messy to make a symbol out of all the objects I want to animate.
When I add a tween (CS3) I always used the Properties panel and choose "motion" from the tween settings. This way there's no symbols added in the library. Just noticed that there are also tween symbols added if I add a tween using right Mouse click or via the menu Insert>Timeline>CreateMotionTween. Never used this before. But I can't seem to see any tween settings on the properties tab anymore in CS5.

I have applied a blur to the begining of a MC, and I would like to fade the blur out once the animation is complete.
While I'm able to remove the initial blur, it is not a gradual, smooth transition. It merely "snaps" back with no blur applied.
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.filters.*;

I imported an avi video to flash, converted it to flv with Adobe media encoder, and did some symbol animation on top of it.How do I export an avi video so that the video I imported is actually playing, and not just to see the skin and flv icon? When I test the video it makes it in swf form and I'd rather not convert it any further and mess up it's quality.Is it possible to view the video in work space while animating symbols over it (I kinda did it by heart)?

I've made 3 different symbols of a running Super Mario -- the first one is his first running frame in the Super Mario Bros. video game, the second one is his second running frame, etc. I would like to create a motion tween of these 3 symbols, so it looks like he's running from one point of the screen to the other. I'm unsure of how I would go ahead to accomplish this.

Right now, I have a car object named car that I want to animate around a track. I did the animation using a motion tween, then used the Copy Motion as AS3 option, the code looks something like this (arrays have been simplified so as not to take up too much room). The code works just fine, the car moves around the track like I wanted it to, but I was wondering is it possible to press a button to stop the animation at a certain point, then resume playing it again when pressing a different button?
ActionScript Code:
var motionGuide:MotionBase;
if(motionGuide == null) {
motionGuide = new Motion();
motionGuide.duration = 20;

We are working on a pretty robust "shirt design" application that allows users to create custom t-shirt designs, create vector output automatically and send the files to a printer.
Inside of the application, you can select high resolution artwork in PNG format and add that to your shirt design. We would like to add the functionality to :
1) Change the Hue and Saturation of the PNG in question (probably using the ColorMatrixFilter class, or something along those lines). 2) Be able to change the hue of different parts of the PNG... (I know , this is probably tricky).
For example, if you have a PNG of a Red Convertible with black tires, how would we even go about changing the color of the convertible and the tires seperately?

I am a student and I use CS4 on a Mac on one of the schools computers. One of the animation projects I am working I need to animate a music video. To do this I calculated out the BPM of the song and set the frame rate at 23.3 FPS so that I would have 20 Frames between beats. Then to have a visual representation of the timing I set a layer that has a red dot blink for 2 frames every 20 frames starting on the first beat.
With it set up like this and I run the animation in Flash it keeps time correctly and works. However, when I test the video the time is off. I tried changing the frame rate to 60fps as an arbitrary number to see if adjusting the frame rate had any affect of the test file but when I tested the video at 60fps it did not run any faster than before. I exported the video to a SWF and MOV file but it was still off.

in the filters panel, there is an "adjust color" option.. and inside of it, there is an option there for "saturation".. setting it to the lowest (-100) will turn the movieclip / whatever object you're applying the filter to, to grayscale..i was wondering, how would i go about this using code?
for example, if there was a movieclip on stage called "thePic" and i wanted to decrease its saturation slowly every enterframe until it finally becomes grayscale, how would i go about it?i know how to manipulate the other filters like GlowFilter and BlurFilter through code, but it seems like there is no "AdjustColorFilter".. there is a ColorMatrixFilter, but i dont event understand how it works..

I am currently making some interactive training apps for a company, It seems like flash is the way to go since I know AS3 and am comfortable with it. The problem comes where my boss wants to be able to sell these apps as learning aids to schools. Would using something like adobe air with flash be the way to go?

I'm working at a company specialising in online training (related to the building & construction industry mainly - but also things such as occuptional health and safety) and we're starting to put courses online. We're currently using Composica and are looking to make the jump to Flash since it looks much nicer and has much more functionality.I've used flash for a while (mainly designing) and have some basic knowledge in Actionscript 3 - the main issue is not knowing how to make Actionscript communicate with HTML (probablyJavascript even) to relay the results of the course / test to the main webpage, saying whether the participant has passed or not, also to block them from going to the next chapter if they haven't completed the current and maybe even save their place if they have to leave halfway through.

I've loaded a video into the FLVPlayback component and I'm looking for a way to get the total time and the time played so far and output them to two text fields so the end result would look something like "00:12/00:50".
Right now I'm defining the video by the components inspector but I'm eventually hoping to define this bit by actionscript as well.

Is there a way to tween the set property actions?For example, I have a button that reduces the size of a box by 50%... but instead of making that box just snap to 50% its size, is there a way it can shape tween slowly until it reached the ideal size.

I've got a property, var angleX:Number; declared right after my class declaration (therefore available to each function in the class). How do I go about tweening this value with Tweener? Specifically, I'm trying to do it in a mouse press event but am stumped by the object i need to pass - the keyword "this" isn't working.

I have a button that I want to immediately go to full alpha and a tween that slides it out gently on rollover. The problem is that the alpha is only set for a second and then it goes back to .5 alpha. It seems like the alpha is only set for the first frame in the tween and then goes away as the tween executes the rest of the frames/seconds. How can I make the alpha instantly 100% and then remain for the remainder of the mouseover?

Ok here is the situation. I've made a media player for 2 hour long training videos. 1. Their are cue points throughout the FLV that have questions the user must answer. 2. The user is allowed to skip to different sections of the video(the beginning of each segment), but they are not allowed to skip forward in a particular segment, unless they've already answered the question for that particular segment.
Here is a preview of how the segment are laid out: I can figure out how to determine if they can or cannot seek, but I just dont know how I can only constrain seeking to particular sections of that timeline.

I'm wondering if there are numerical limits for the values you can manipulate using the tween class.I am importing mx transitions and using them to manipulate the _xscale and _yscale of a movie clip.. If I understand correct.. x and y scale property is measured in percentage..
is there a limitation on the value I can plug in?
Can I scale.. say.... 1,000,000% (million)
how about 100,000,000,000 !!! (one hundred trillion)
How about limits on _x and _y position values..?to quell any curiosity, I'm essentially trying to control a movie clip that has the appearance of 'zooming' in with button clicks by increasing the scale..
