how to make a movie clip have an elastic type effect on it when you can click and drag it and it snaps back into place in a springy type way. Also would like to have a maximum that it will allow you to drag it before it will snap back on its own.I've been Googling for 2 days looking for an answer and have had no luck yet.
View 3 RepliesI want to be able to make a movie clip (that acts as a button) so the roll over effect finishes before the roll off effect is triggered. Like if a marker circles a button, i want the circling animation to stop before the roll off effects happens. Anyone know how to do this.
View 2 RepliesCS3 Flash - Complete newbie to Flash and I'm trying to change an existing flash piece.It consists of 4 different text statements that appear on a Black background - the first appears and stays on-screen for 10 secs, then it starts to blur and fade away in about a sec, and then the next statement appears, etc, etc., and the whole lot loops.The 4 statements appear as Video Clips (Symbols?) in the library.I need to add a new statement, which means there will be 5 statements. I duplicated one of the library items and renamed it, which seems to have worked fine... but I cannot then work out how I insert that video clip into the Timeline and still have the same visual effects and timing as the existing ones? I can insert a blank frame, but then I can only drop the new video clip text onto that one frame.I've tried copying and pasting a whole set of frames, and then go in and change the text. Which I thought had worked, but then discovered that it also changed the original frames.... now understand that's because they are just instances and any change will affect the master Video Clip!
So can anyone advise if I can insert my newly added and renamed video clip into the timeframe and create the same effect as the others?Please keep any advice as idiot-proof as possible as this is my first venture into Flash... not finding it as intuitive as I hoped, spent 6hrs to date just trying trial and error without any real success.
I have a serie of movie clip parts from a menu. Each movie clip has an elastic effect on rollover with the following code. it is ok but not smooth enough I wonder how I could smooth the effect. Is there a function for this ?
monClip.onRollOver = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._xscale >= 150) {
[Code].....
I've seen it done on sites, and it's totally baffled me. And I'm not talking about those nifty effects where the line twists, and flexes when it bounces back to it's original size, I'm stuffed just with making a straight line have an elastic feel.Here's what I want to do.Have the bottom of the line anchored, and the top part linked to an object which I can move with the mouse. Moving that object will not only stretch or shrink the line, but it would also change it's angle based on where the object is.
View 4 RepliesI downloaded the 'ScrollingWindow' tutorial on the ActionScript page and have customised it to suit my requirement. It works fine. However... I want to use the same type of effect (text sweeping in to a specified _x co-ordinate with an eleastic effect) on a MovieClip within the MovieClip already being used for the effect and controlled by the script. I have looked at this for some time and I can't figure out the correct way to incorporporate both the _x co-ord. and the elastic effect. Please have a look at the attached file.. The bit you will see on the FLA is fine, but I also want to add an animation within each section using the same (_x co-ord + elastic) effect and I JUST CAAAAN"T

I really like the text effect Pom used in the footer contest, and would like to use the same grid-type method of creating mc letters but with a different effect. i understand how to change the parameters and shapes of the letters, but can't seem to figure out which piece of code is purely for the explosion effect. basically, i want the letters but with the 'Repel' effect from[URL] here is Pom's AS:

I'm making a room escape game and I've run into a problem. When an item gets added to the inventory, I'd like the user to be able to click on the item to affect another object (e.g. clicking screwdriver hides screws and displays other image) however when I add the code to the item, if the item is clicked and it's nowhere near the object it affects, the image pops up and it looks really stupid.
So what I'd like to be able to do, possibly using if and else statements or whatever's easiest, is to only have the inventory item be clickable if the movie clip of the object is affects is visible on the stage.
make a circle object movie clip call ball and make a rectangle object movie clip call mc and paste this coding.

can anyone explain about the movement about D? the D is talk about the distance if i go -X,way my ball go ++ to +x?

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to set a special roll over effect for a movie clip i created. all i need to do is this: when i roll over, it should play from frame 2 and stop where i told him (at frame 5) when i roll out i want him to play from frame 6 and stop where i told him again. (at frame 10). i already did this with no problem except this: my movie clip has a very complex animation i created with other movie clips who works frame by frame style (actual animation). the problem is this: when i roll out after a short time (about half a second) the flash jumps to the rollout part of the movie clip and shows the rollout animation but doesn't finish the rollover animation, what makes the animation to jump (the animations i use is a bit long).
so i'm trying to see if anybody can explain to me how do i make this jump get out of my flash animation. what i mean is this : if i rollover the mouse and stays on the movie clip, the rollover animation is played and when i rollout out of the movie clip the animation continues as usual (this is something i already accomplished). but i want to make this a bit more complex : when i rollover and than right away roll out of the movie clip i want the flash to play the roll over animation and right after that the rollout animation without stopping .... ' i hope i made myself clear with this problem .... for some of you it may seem easy (using some action script tricks or something) but I'm only a beginner who's trying to figure it out ....
i went through the tutorial for the actionscript text effect... and i got it to work... but now i want to put it into a project as a movie clip, so it loops, but i can move it freely as an object... but when i put the whole thing into a movie clip, it only does the letter in the text box that i animated, and it only runs once...

I'm looking to create a simple effect using AS2. I need to create a rollover effect on a movie clip that would in turn blur out of focus everything else behind it (Not selected).

Whenever someone clicks on a nav button, the corresponding .swf file loads into a blank movie clip I have on my home page. What I'd like to do is have the content on the current page fade out before the content on the new page fades in. I've used Flash for years, but this is the first web site I've built entirely in Flash, and I don't quite know how to approach this. I'm assuming ActionScript would be the easiest and most efficient way to produce this effect, but I don't know how to go about doing it. Is there a way to tell the current movie to go to a certain frame in the movie and play it before loading the next external movie clip?
