ActionScript 3.0 :: Create Motion Tween Between Two Points Of Object?
Jan 9, 2010I want to create motion tween between two points of object.
example:
startingpoint100,100);
destn point200,300);
I want to create motion tween between two points of object.
example:
startingpoint100,100);
destn point200,300);
creating motion tween with two inputs starting point and ending point of an object.
example:
my object name: mcball
current point100,100);
desination point200,200);
here in AS3 whether any default methods are functions which take these two points and make motion tween.
I'm just learning the software and haven't been able to figure this out. I'm trying to create an historic timeline for our company and am using 20 jpg images, which I placed on separate layers and then converted each jpg to a symbol and motion tweened to go across the screen. The problem is that there is a gap between the frames when they play as a movie and I don't know how to get rid of that so that they flow continuously across the screen from left to right seamlessly.
View 5 RepliesI have no problem creating shape tweens in Flash CS4, but motion tweens are a problem. Here's what I do:
- I draw a rectangle and convert it to a symbol on frame 1.
- I create a key frame on frame 25, where I place the symbol in a different position.
- On frame 1 I create a motion tween.
When I run this nothing happens until frame 24, and on 25 the symbol appears on its final position. I can do the movement with a shape tween, but I want to do it with a motion tween, as this may be a question at the exam next week.
I have already created an animattion of a bird flapping its wings. I want to include this within another animation of it flying around as well as flapping wings and wondering how this can be done. I tried to import it as both a gif image and swf movie and although it holds the original animation I cannot add the motion tween to draw the flying path.

View 1 Replieshow to create a motion blur during a tween?
I dont have any examples now, but you know when you tween a movieclip across the stage (changing its x and y properites) and then according to speed of a movieclip a blur effect is applied?
How do you create a motion tween when I insert keyframe in frame 28 then I click on the object and create motion tween but when i click in 60 to insert keyframe I get opition of position, scale, skew, rotate ect. I just want to insert keyframe. What am I doing wrong?

View 2 RepliesBasically, I created an image and converted it to a movie clip. Inside of this movie clip, I create a new layer and I give both layers 70 frames. On the top layer, I then draw a path, right click on the layer, and choose guide. I then drag and drop the bottom layer, which represents my movie clip, under the guide layer. The next step is to right click on the bottom layer, my object layer, and choose create motion tween. This for me however is blocked out, and my only option is to create a classic tween.
Just as a note, I am using CS5 and the tutorial I am following looks to be using an older version. Additionally, they don't right click on the layer and choose motion tween. They select the layer and from like their properties panel, they have a tween option, and from the drop down, they choose motion. I cannot find this option box in my interface however. Is there any logical reason why it wont allow me to do a motion tween?
Is there any ways to create a slow motion tween within a limited keyframe?
View 1 RepliesI need to have a textbox displaying the x coordinates of an object during its motion tween. I know how to do it for individual frames but don't know how to add an eventListener to do it over the span of the tween.
View 9 RepliesIm trying to make a ball move to the position of a crosshair (not the mouse, but another object on the stage) which stops after 15 seconds (if you can imagine a penalty shoot out game).
So the ball is still to begin, but on an onClipEvent(enterFrame)command it should move to the target (the crosshair)
Getting the ball to move along a line at a specified speed is no problem, but I want the ball to actually go to and stop wherever the crosshair is on the stage.
What would be a good way to create a sin wave motion using the math, not tween, class? In maya it was quite simple with sin(value) but I can't seem to get a decent undulation out of Flash. The case I'm working on is a bubble generator, you know, just for kicks. That fish tank screen saver has the bubbles moving in a sin wave it seems, looks like it works well enough.

View 4 Replieswhether it is possible to automatically create a motion tween of a black circle that would result in an animated drawing of a line? The circle should not only move but also leave its own copy at each frame of its route.
View 2 RepliesI know it is very easy. Right click> create motion tween> drag to where I would like the text/object to move. But, Sometimes it doesn't seem to work when I drag the text. It will work the first time and for the second text on the frame it won't work. What are the requirements of a motion tween when it comes to text on a single layer in the same frame.
View 2 RepliesI'm a young girl who recently discovered flash cs3 (I started yesterday) I found this tutorial about how to make a flying bird. I did as the tutorial said, I just made a butterfly instead of a bird. Now I made a flower and I want the butterfly to land on the flower. The tutorial only showed me how to make the bird/butterfly fly through the scene and not how to stop it while I still see it in the scene. I figured out how to stop the motion tween but then the butterfly dissappeared from the flash file after it stopped and I also figured out how to make it land on the flower but it keeps moving its wings Now I need help to make it stop moving the wings while it's still visible. I hope my explanation is understandable. As I said I just started with this program so I don't know how to explain all the different things.
I tried to upload the file on imageshack but it seems like it doesn't support this kind of file, or I'm saving it wrong. I could need some help with that too so I can show others what I'm making without that they have to download the file so it's easier to get help when I'm stuck A link to the .swf file [URL]

I have encountered an interesting situation, I would like to simulate a ball thrown by a goalkeeper from top. Ball is going to move from right to left, it is small at the beginning, getting bigger at the half, because it gains height, and small again at the end. The scenario is this. And I do not want to use any actionscript code because of the performance loss caused by the event listeners.
How can I simulate two different kinds of tween (horizontal move is without ease and vertical move is with easeOut and easeIn) in the design environment of Flash cs5.5
By the way, I have already tried using actionscript code however, because there so many concurrent event, a little lag is occured at the beginning of each tween start.
I've got a movieClip, initially it starts with a motion tween, like a pop-in effect, and then after that i've created a keyframe and made the movieClip to continue to, like 450 frames.So the tween finishes at frame 20 and then from frame 21 just the movieClip is displayed.When I write a script at frame 21 to reference this movieClip I get a null object reference error.In this script I want to reference a button which is inside of it, but I'm pretty sure that I cant access this movieClip whatsoever.
View 1 RepliesRight 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;
[Code] .....
lets say we want to animate an object using the 3d position its (Z position)to be exact, from keyrame 1 to keyframe 40 or so on. i put the object on keyrame 1 to 10000position and view and then its keyframe on 40 to 0 position and view,so it looks like a nice object zooming towards you as you see it.but how can we get the object to constantly spin around and around(like from the motion presets from the default:spiral 3D ) .so it seems like a coin been tossed.
View 2 RepliesI have 10 objects in 10 layers to make a single logo. I have created them using flash drawing objects. Now I would like each object to come one by one on stage using motion tween. How can I go further? Do I need to make each object a movie clip before set it motion tween? Or do I need to make a single movie with all 10 objects as combined? Please note that I need each object to come on stage one by one (not a whole logo on once). Please provide help or any example tutorial link.
View 3 RepliesI made a little flash presentation where a bulb increases in brightness as the mouse goes over it and decreases as the mouse goes out. I set up the object on the stage and created a motion tween equal to 30 frames in which the object starts dull and increases in brightness. To control it, I made this little script:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, startScan);
mcBulbLit.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, startShow);
function startShow(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(31);
} function startScan(event:Event):void {
[Code] .....
For some reason the bulb only goes back one frame and then stops at that frame.
If I perform a motion tween along a curved path, Flash CS4 does not allow to change the curves to "corner point" or "linear" in the motion editor. URL...
View 2 Repliesway to add more time in between the keyframes when you are using the "create motion tween" tween. For example I have a simple animation, an object floating up, it pauses for a second, then goes to the right. Say I finish tweening the animation, I then want the object to take more time moving to the right. So pretty much i want to add more frames inbetween those two keyframes. In a classic tween, I would select the frames in between and hit f5 a few times to lenhthen it. How can I do that using the new tweening method?

I am facing a problem in one of my animation with flash CS4 - I have nested a Shape Tween in a Motion tween to get more control over the easers and effects, unfortunately I am not able to view on the timeline of my Motion Tween the action of the Shape tween nested inside.
It only show the first shape of the Shape Tween during the entire Motion Tween and that is really a problem for me because I need to see the final frame result of that Shape tween to be able to position it in a precise way on my scene according to other instances.

I'm making a "master movie" for an assignment and I'm stuck right now. What I've got is an Intro page that will serve at the Parent.swf to load 4 other child swf's upon a mouse click. The problem is I have a theater stage where I tweened an animation to make it appear the curtain on the stage is going up but once it reaches it maximum height....the tween abruptly stops. I want it to HOLD there until a user clicks a button.
How would I make this happen? Here is the page in question: [URL]...
