ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Space Evenly Horizontally?
Aug 25, 2009I am trying to figure out how to space evenly horizontally object of different width.

View 1 RepliesI have the following code, which works beautifully when all the boxes are the same height. The basic point is that I have three boxes on the stage, 10 pixels apart. If you click and drag those boxes above or below each other, they reorganize themselves.

var tf:TextField = new TextField();

What im going to be doing is replacing the bottom info with just a link-strip, unfortunatly I didn't want to have to sift through ten dynamic text fields re-animating every one with tweens to the way I wanted them so I set them all to a parent variable defined as "mt", such variables being as follows:HomePortfolioDocumentationDev BlogCase StudiesSupport For

I need to tile this as my entire background for my full screen flash site. flip the image horizontally for every other placement horizontally, and then i need it to flip vertically for every other Vertical placement. So the image only looks seamless if i do this. I have a illustration below to help show what i mean.

Know how to do it? I dont want there to be a limit to the horizontal dimension of the dynamic textbox. I want it to depend on the text itself (expand automatically).

I am printing a dynamic text from flash. Every thing works fine, But I get unwanted spaces/ small boxes at the end of every page. Using string functions I tried to remove the last character if it is a space.Even though I am getting this problem.

Its only happening around the edges of link tags,Code:Hello <a href="">world</a> my name is george.renders asHelloworldmy name is george.The link still works fine, Ive tried putting the spaces outside the link tags but it still happens.Im having to put double spaces in to get only one of them appearing its so wierd.I dont remember this happening when I was working in AS2 but cant isolate the problem at all.
View 7 RepliesI have two movieclips, I have managed to calculate the distance between them. The problem is I now need to figure out how to add movieclips between the distance of the two movieclips and if I add more than one movieclip they need to be evenly spaced and all should follow a straight path from the two original movieclips.

I am using he uiloader component to load 4 external swf's. But I've got a problem with spreading the uiloaders evenly on the stage when it resizes (with different browser sizes). How can I solve this to put the :
1 uiloader on 0% vertical axis
2 uiloader on 25% vertical axis
3 uiloader on 50% vertical axis
4 uiloader on 75% vertical axis

I often need to divide quantities in recipes. Normally, this is straightforward: I have an array of items to divide and a total, so I can do something like
[Code]...
However, this time I have been handed a curve ball: some of the items have a maximum amount they can be. For example, item A has a maximum amount of .25, item B is maximum of 1, the other items have no limits. So if the total amount is 3, and I am dividing it by 3 items I can't simply set each one's amount to 1 (as I normally would, as the code above does). I need to set the amount of A to .25 so there is still the .75 "left over" that I now need to apply evenly to the remaining items.
So that means the other 2 items B and C would be 1.375 each -- but, as I said above B also has a limit (of 1), so B would be 1 and C (no limits) would get the whole .75 remainder, and be 1.75. So A=.25, B= 1, C=1.75 for the total of 3. My question is, even conceptually, how would I approach a problem such as this in AS?

In need of a function to match the functionality of Flash's Align tool to "space evenly horizontally" between either two objects or to the stage.

I am working on The ausdcf.org to try adding several banner ads in swf format to the top. The client chose not to go with Google AdManager, but prefer a "minimal approach" to do this task. What I am trying to do is sort of "mimicking" the way Google AdManager does for banners, that is, to split the chance of each particular swf to be shown to the visitor evenly among the banner collection.
Definitely I can add some jQuery code to do this from client-side, a random number generator and if-else statement would work - just $.load() it However, what if I'd like to make sure those disabled Javascript (is there any now btw?) still be able to see different swfs in each visit.
I have 16 columns in a DataGrid in my Flex app. The first 15 look fine, with the column, simply containing the text, but the last one has a lot of extra space. Essentially, the columns are just big enough to fit the first 15 and all that extra space is tacked onto the 16th column.
How can I evenly distribute the space over each column?
<mx:DataGrid x="127" y="9" id="view"
dataProvider = "{currentBuffer}" width="497" height="480">

I'm working in Actionscript 3, but this is pretty general.I'd like to make a simple function that I can call, e.g. GiveCords(Width, Height, Num) that will take a width and height, map that out and using the Num variable place the given amount evenly across the space.Say I give it a value of 500, 500, 1. I'd expect it to return an X, Y position of 250, 250.But I'd like it to return an array of given points with X, Y.So If I gave it 10 points, it would find the best position for them all to be of even distance apart from each other.

I would like to store an array of points of a very specific spiral algorithm. The points are evenly distributed The 360 degree cycles have an even gap If I'm not mistaken, I think it's obvious that the two first points would be:

iSo let's say I have three different arrays of objects, and I want to combine them into one sorted array. I want the order to be such that the items from each array are evenly distributed throughout the sorted array.
If there were 3 xItems, 3 yItems, and 3 zItems, the sorted array would have this order: x, y, z, x, y, z, x, y, z
HOWEVER, even if the arrays are differing lengths, I still need to make them alternate as much as possible. If there were 6 xItems, 4 yItems, and 2 zItems, the sorted array should have this order: x, y, x, y, x, z, x, y, x, y, x, z
I have been tasked with trying to create a drawing tool that draws dotted lines as you drag the mouse across the stage. I can easily capture the points on MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE and store them in a vector and then draw the points as dots:
The problem is that I need to calculate evenly distributed points on an ever growing Vector of points so I can only draw the line between say every 5th point (say using modulus). I have been battling away with Bezier curve equations both Quadratic and Cubic but still can't quite figure out how to convert my Vector of points into an evenly distributed Vector of Points without sucking the life from the CPU.
I just wrapped the majority of a site I have been working on. And realize now that I have it formatted for html, that parts of some of its animations are getting cut off - due to not having enough space on the sides.What would be the best way to resize horizontally? I tried, but it only does so to one direction, and not even sure how to approach resizing such a complex anim... do i need to go in and do it piecemeal?
