ActionScript 3.0 :: Create An Analog Clock That Changes Color When Its PM?
Oct 28, 2010
I'm trying to create an analog clock that changes color when its PM. The only thing is that the variable won't update. I made the code a function and put it in a code block that runs every second. To make it clear: The function DOES work, it just doesn't update the variable ampm which means when the clock passes 12, it won't change color. The function only gets the variable once from what I can tell. I traced the variable ampm when the local time was 3 PM but even if I changed the time to 3 AM, the variable didn't change. So it'll change color correctly when the flash file is first run but if the time goes from AM to PM while it's running it will not change color.
Code:
Here is my function code:
function color():void
{
/* AM PM, if hours is greater than 11, that is 12 and 12 is PM */
if (hours<12)
I have to make this analog clock for a university assignment and despite some really good efforts last night and tonight I just can't work out how to get it fully working. There is both a digital and analog clock; the digital clock works fine, but the analog clock just starts from a random time whenever I play the test movie. I am supposed to use the date object, not the timer object. And I am also supposed to add a sound every minute - I have added the sound to the minutes layer and selected but I don't know where to go from there. I seem to be able to find lots of example code for the timer object but not the date.
this.addEventListener("enterFrame",clockHandler); false, 0, true; function clockHandler(e:Event) {[code].....
I've just created a draft animation demonstration of a unique analogue clock [URL]. What I would like to achieve is to also have a digital clock just below it. So when you roll over the analogue clock, the animation starts for both clocks. When you roll off the animation stops leaving the time displayed exactly the same on both clocks. So basically both the clocks run simultaneously (speeded up). How I might achieve this?
I made a flash movie. I create a analog clock separately with AS3 which worked perfectly - hour and minute hand is moving. I need to import the analog clock into my movie. After import, the clock hour and minute hand does no move anymore - I believe AS3 is not executed. May I know what is the proper way to insert a AS3 object such as an analog clock into a movie scene that last for eg. 10 secs? (the hour and minute hand move in this 10sec frame before the whole clock disappear).
I have a simple analog clock, but I want it to show how long time store is open. so I quess there have to have some kind of transparent circle, which goes along as clock's pointers how to execute this?
I have this action script that i'm doing for work and it is basically an analog clock with daylight saving to be placed on our website. The clock updates its values from [URL]. It works fine for 5 minutes then it stops updating.
Code:
ActionScript Code: // import the Delegate class import mx.utils.Delegate; // hide clock elements whilst initial loading of data occurs
I have a clock image that has a space for the day (eg: M, Tu, etc)a space for the month (spelled out) and a space for the date. It refers to a page I'm working on in Flash CS4. I'd like it to show the correct date in a specific type style. How do I program that?
I want to create an analogical clock but i have a problem. I've created a new MovieClip that is a square. This square i want to use to represent the seconds in a minute and minutes in a hour.[code]...
I am designing a couple of games in flash and i came to the conclusion that i need a more flexible solution for timing instead of onEnterFrame; An interval based system which i can pause or change the speed, independent of the frame-rate of the flash file. So some processes might be running at frame-rate while others use the clock. One of the trickiest parts might be controlling animations with the clock, but this would allow to make a real slowmotion effect.. Since i really have to brush up my skills, i have some problems/questions;
what technique would be most usefull for this? thinking of an interval and 'addlistener's type of thing. Is this heavy on performance?Not sure if the animation part would work.Do You guys think it could be a usefull function? is there another way?
Ps. I posted this here, because to me this is more about the technique than its application (the game).
I'm trying to create a clock which shows the time returned by the server. get this code working with the server time on..(E.g.: time.php returns 1295532770)
server = new LoadVars(); server.onData = function (src){ clock_txt.onEnterFrame = time;[code]....
We are creating an ecommerce site for my business and am trying to create a flash file that will allow the end user to select a color from a palette of 64 different swatches that they would like their item to be so it processed it into the order. I only need to create the flash file so they can select the color.
can you tell me if it is possible to detect if an object is rotating anti clockwise or not? at present i get x,y co-ords and use the code below to rotate it which is fine. now i could write an if statement to check if rotation is negative or positive but because rotation can be negative and positive when rotating clockwise and anti clockwise this wouldnt work.

I have been looking at tutorials and forums for almost three hours now. I am building an analog timer that goes to two minutes. I've setup a timer and have attempted to get the second hand to rotate as the timer continues. So far all it does is move that initial rotation. It looks like only 15 degrees or so. and it doesn't seem to matter what numbers I change it only goes to that 15 degrees.
Here is my code so far:
ActionScript Code: var twoMinuteTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 120); this.addEventListener("enterFrame",onEnterFrame); function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void
I'm trying to figure out how to bring in a number from xml into this analog meter so that it will display the number in the meter. I believe I'm supposed to use LoadVars object but not sure where to implement it.
I created an animation and I want to color it in. ( I made the drawings by paint brush in Flash). The problem is the thing seems to think that every little line I draw is a seperate item. I've tried breaking it apart but its time consuming
I have read all threads on color picker keyword on this site.Some of them includes links to components and some of them does not contain useful information.
Does anyone here had an experince on creating dynamic color picker?I need key points and design issues to consider to program colorpicker class with AS 2.0.
I am creating a portfolio site and I am trying to create a 'color scheme' option. This would allow the user to pick a color and all of the mcs and the rollover text would change to that color, or a shade of that color.
i have a button, with instance name lightblue_color. I am assigning a color to its color field like this: lightblue_color.transform.colorTransform.color = 0x65ffff; then i am adding an eventlistener to the button like this: lightblue_color.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ChangeColor); Then, in the function: public function ChangeColor(evnt:MouseEvent):void {trace(evnt.target.transform.colorTransform.color);} It prints 0. Why is that? Shouldn't it print 0x65ffff or do i need to do some type conversions?
Timing Format in Flex "24-hour clock" and "12-hour clock"if "24-hour clock" Button is selected, the control should convert times to 24 hour clock time. For example, if 3:45 p.m. is entered, it should be converted to 15:45.if "12-hour clock" Button is selected, the control should convert times to 12 hour clock time. For example, if 15:45 p.m. is entered, it should be converted to
How do I create a custom color scale ideally in Hex? say from yellow to red, depending on the height of an object? is this a correct way to achieve this or is there a better way without having to convert it at the end?[code]...
