I've got an object (camera) I'm trying to pan. This code works perfectly for panning it on the Y axis, but it's the exact opposite for the natural panning motion of X. By simply subtracting the velocity (as opposed to adding), the camera.x creates a crazy "Ease In" effect that shoots the camera off at a crazy speed. I've tried reversing the order of everything, but without the result I'm seeking.

I've been working hard to achieve a parallax panning effect like the one seen here url... Unfortunately the closest i have come is url...Mine is rather choppy and doesn't provide the easing that Mauricio has included in his.[code]

I'm working on my portfolio site, and I used a panning effect on the background so the user can interact with the site and pan left/right to click on the items.
my problem lies with the motion tween. It needs to pan with the background, AND move on its own path. it's a car moving down a road, and it needs to stay in its path. it works perfectly, until the mouse is moved, which stops the animation, and then the car follows the panning movement, but stops the motion tween effect
I've also tried saving it out as an external SWF file. the tweening worked ok, and it does get the initial assignment, but it doesn't track the panning background.
Has anybody found a way to ease motion only between keyframes, not the whole animation? In classic u get separate easings.Generally, I want to convert old tween to new for more control, but it seems to be impossible.
View 4 RepliesIs it just me or is creating and applying custom easing with the motion editor absurdly difficult? Firstly, the bezier curve tool for custom easing has a mind of its own. It will change the curve at a different anchor point to the one you're editing on a whim and every time you get close to where you want the curve it does it again and you're back to square one. Second, you have to recreate a custom ease for every tween as there's no way to save them. It's impossible to create two custom eases exactly the same! The entire motion editor seems designed to infuriate me and parts of it don't seem to have been tested at all.

Have managed to change everything so it works on the x axis; but when i want to change it to enter and exit on the y axis but when i do it bounces around and immediately heads back off screen. Surely this is simple, but I am quite stuck; please let me know what is wrong with this code:

Scrolling a large movieclip (like 1800 pixels in height)

It's basically a scrolling content type motion I am looking for. Click a button content scrolls revealing the proper section on the y axis. Anyway, the motion just isn't fluid enough for my liking. Any tips or a different equation to make it more fluid.
i have this script that i am using to drag with easing. it works but how do i make sure it stops when it gets to the edge of the movie. Right now since there is easing on it, you can throw the shape right off of the stage. Is there a way it can stop?

I'm creating a map in flash and I would like to have a smooth movement similar to this:[URL]..i have made a start but I'm having trouble taking it to the next stage.

I'm attempting to make an AS3 class that allows me to drag an object with easing. I've looked around the net and put this together.I have created this class as startDrag() doesn't allow easing. I've almost got it working but there is a problem where the registation point of the movielclip snaps to the mouse position (this is the equivalent of having "lockcenter:boolean" in startDrag() set to "true")this is the problem bit in my script:
targetX = mouseX;
targetY = mouseY;

Code:
package classes{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[code].............
I have got myself a movieclip that I would like to be able to drag left and right. I have got this sorted but I would also like the movieclip to ease to a stop depending on the speed it has been dragged. Is this possible?

I've managed to code the following function for an AS2 class. What I'd like to do is to add a "constrained space", like a square, and keep the easing. I've tried to update this function in many possible ways.
ActionScript Code:
private function dragMe(victim:MovieClip):Void
{
var easing:Number = 15;
[Code].....
How can I go about adding easing motion to this code. I have a movie clip that is significantly larger than the stage and the mouse, on drag will pan around the image. I just want to add a slight ease on the pan.
function beginPan(e:MouseEvent):void
{
deltaX = mouseX - content_mc.x;
deltaY = mouseY - content_mc.y;
[Code].....
is there a way to add easing to the scrollpane (component) when you mouse-click and drag?

how to incorporate tween classes and then easing?
I've built a code to cyclically move a scene on the bottom of my stage; I've done this to make a slowing-and-stop-easing effect at anytime the command will arrive. The entire scene mc is _x long something like 6000 px. The whole code goes in this way:
1) importing on the stage (with attachMovie) a mc with this code inside:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
_parent._parent.fondo_mc._x -= countermovement;
if (_parent._parent.fondo_mc._x <= -5800) {[code].....
The code goes right, but I need to improve it.Now there is just a variable, I tought to use two vars to implement the whole code in a setInterval, but maybe it's unuseful, and actually I can't use it in the right way.
Second issue: actually when slowAndStop function is called the scene slow too fast, if I take it to 15 it slow better but the scene is running too fast...
The best would be that the scene slow down and stop following: A) a temporal variable (and I can try to implement it with setInterval, that for istance is a cycle)
B) an indipendent moving variable, so that on one side I set the speed, on the other side I set the slow-and-stop in a matter of time with countermovement.I also tried to use a second variable:
var counter:Number = 15;
// set the _x increment
var countermovement:Number = counter/2;
but the scene slow and goes backward a bit
I'm familiar with how to ease something in using motion math. Easing out would not be that bad either. But how would I script something easing in half way, then easing out the second half? It would start slow, gradually move faster, then slow to a stop at the end. - almost like a sine wave I guess?
View 1 RepliesI'm having a real problem trying to work this out...
A: I start with a movieclip on stage. it's 100x100.
B: I set xscale and yscale to 150.
C: I use "attachMovie" to add a little man into the square.The problem is, the man has an xscale of 100, but he is also scaled with the movieclip square container. So he appears too big.
D: What i would like to know, is what formula you would use to reduce his scale so he is the correct height, if the container movieclip had an xscale of 100?

View 2 RepliesI've been trying to look this up but not had any luck so far. I'm trying to make a simple pseudo-3D app, but I'm stuck on how to pull off the movement. If I have an object with x,y,z coordinates, and its movement speed, pitch, and yaw, what formula would I use for movement? So for example, if the object is at 0,0,0, moves 6 units per frame, and has pitch 30 degrees and yaw 15 degrees, what will be its coordinates next frame?

View 2 RepliesI have been searching far and wide for a solution on how to offer slow motion and fast motion options for users that upload video to my webstie. There is an implementation on Google Video that has exactly what I am looking for: the option to speed up or slow down the video and continue to play the audio. The screenshot is below. I know that Flowplayer has an option to slow down or speed up video when implemented with Wowza server. However, when using that approach, there is no sound.
I have also seen the option from Enounce called MySpeed that allows video to be slowed or quickened, but this requires a browser plugin which is too much of a barrier for our users. How does Google do it? How can you add an option to a flash player to slow down or speed up video?Here is a screen shot. You can see the option to change the speed of the video to 1.5x. It also has options to go to 0.5x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2.0x, 2.5x, and 3.0x.
I have a little math problem with a game I'm making, and I can't for the life of me figure out the formula needed to accomplish something..Say, there's a sniping game, and a BIG image that must scroll from left to right according to the mouse movement.

the center of the image would be at x 1500, way over to the right of the scene, outside it, but it would fit inside the screen, like this (the blue square represents the real size of the scene):[URL]..Then when the mouse is at the far right side, that is 550 x, the image center should be at -950 x, like this:[URL]...
