View 9 RepliesI have a doubt, if a Stage have 600px height and I would like to center an movieClip that have dynamic size and the registration point is always at the top, to the 400px of that 600px how can it be done, without having to create another movieClip.
View 3 RepliesI need to be able to rotate a movieclip around a certain point within that movieclip. So, I decided to use this dynamic registration point class. I try to use it in my movie, but I get the error that "setRegistration" is not a function.

View 4 Replies is possible but dynamic text fields seem to have two registration points: one which determines their location on the stage, and another which determines the origin of their coordinate system.
Code:
/*var t:TextField = new TextField();
t.text = "Hello";
t.x = 155;
[code]....
If t is a dynamic text field you placed on the stage in the authoring environment, you'll see two separate circles around two separate points, when there should just be one point to encircle. And the trace statement will trace 2 different points as well, offset just 2 pixels in the x direction and 2 pixels in the y direction, regardless of font or font size. (I commented out the first part of the code since text fields created with code will behave normally with just one registration point.)
I have an action script for a movie clip to rotate around (instance_name.rotation -= 1. and this works fine, how ever i need it to rotate around a point outside of the movie clip. i think i need to move the registration point but i dont know how to do this.
View 1 RepliesI have read a few discussions on changing the registration point on a movieclip but don't seem to work. I have a movieclip with embedded mcs. I can se that the nly way of changing the reg point is by saving as a mc again ie: creating another one and upon creation choose the reg point.

Is there a way to change the registration point of a movie clip after you've made the movie clip?
View 5 RepliesI'm making a custom collision class, and I need to know the registration point of the targets so I can use the bitmap.hitTest(); function, and not all of my movieclips have their registration point in the upper left side, so I'll have to do a little calculation according to the registration point of each movieClip, but I don't seem to know how to obtain the registration point with as3.
View 3 RepliesIs there a way to extend only the bottom part of a dynamic Movieclip? I tried to change the height or to scale my mc but it always makes the change relativity to the center of the Movieclip. I guess I should define a registration point and change the height according to it but i'm not sure of how to do it
View 2 RepliesNormally, this is a simple task if the registration point is either top left or dead center of the movieclip. Unfortunately, this may not (and likely will not) be the case for the movieclips I am trying to position, so I was wondering if there was a way to center a movieclip in a given area without knowing it's registration point.registration point via the Matrix class or any other method, as it's very important for positioning of the movieclips inside of it.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to see if there's a way to change the registration point of a MovieClip that's importing an image dynamically?Here is my code where I add an image to an "overlayHolder":
overlayBitmap = _loader.getBitmap( _data.id + "-overlay_image" );
overlayHolder.addChild(overlayBitmap);
overlayHolder.x = _data.overlay_left;
overlayHolder.y = _data.overlay_top;
What I need to do is rotate this image later on, upon interaction from someone, but need it to rotate with a center-registration.I've seen a bunch of tutorials/forums talk about centering a registration point when you're drawing a Sprite on the stage, but not when you're importing an image.
To load an image onto a movieclip, the mc's registration point must be top left. Is there a way of loading the image on the whole movieclip, when it's reg point is not top left. In other words to set where to start putting the image in reference to the movieclip
View 2 RepliesI have a MC in an AS3 animation and I want to increase its height from bottom to top which would mean that the registration point should be bottom of the MC and center of width (horizontal center).
View 2 RepliesThere is not setRegistration point method. So, how to set registration poing in AS3. Do any body know about it ??
View 3 RepliesFlash uses a movie clip's REGISTRATION POINT to determine the MC's X and Y coordinates, correct? If not, what is used?
View 4 Repliescan you set the registration point of a mc with as? I need to do this for a whole bunch of loader components, which are by default set to TL. I need CC.
View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip on my stage with various elements in it. When I edit this movie clip all the coordinates for the various elements have really random values because the registration point is not set to the top left corner of the symbol but I can't find any way to change the registration point - nothing I've found online so far works.
View 3 RepliesI want to load a series .jpgs into an existing mcs. The mcs are 75 x 75 pix and the .jpgs are 50 x 50 pix. The problem is that I made the mcs with the registration point at the top left corner. This causes the mcs to load in at that point so that the margine between the .jpg and the mc is uneven. How can I change the registration point of each mc so that the CENTER of the .jpg is positioned the CENTER of the mc?

View 11 RepliesHow can i change registration point of uiloader?
because that loader loads images which needs to be zoomed for productional purposes, but it does not zoom the center, it zooms through to reg point.
how?
View 1 RepliesHow do you change the registration point of a TextField or MovieClip?Suppose you want to Twin a zoom in, I need it to happen from the middle, but I found no methods or properties that let you set it in the center.

View 2 RepliesI'm importing an image that I'll use as my pointer(arrow) in a speedometer. My problem is that I need to manually set the movieClip's registration point so that I'll get the rotation right. If I manually drag the image on stage and use F8 to convert it to a MovieClip, I can set the registration point in the dialog box popping up. The only thing I'm trying to do is just that, but with ActionScript since I create this thingie dynamically
View 3 RepliesI've got quite a few images that are being loaded into my project through the MovieClipLoader function, anyway, when they are loaded to a specific MovieClip, their registration point is set to the top left corner (0, 0).Is there any way of adjusting the registration point for this MovieClip? Or would I have to something like the following:
Code:
var pL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
// loader[code]......
I don't know if the above is even possible, but thats what I'd guess, if there is no way of setting the registration point in a easier way. I feel that the above is such a waste.
Do you usually set the registration point in the upper-left corner ?I usually have always troubles with the registration point in the center.. or is maybe useful in any situation ?
View 1 RepliesIs it just me or is it true that once you create a symbol and set the registration point you can't ever change it? unless you make it into a new symbol?
