ActionScript 3.0 :: Use RotationY Relative To The Parent Movie Clip?

Mar 21, 2010

I am using the following code to rotate movieclips with a nice 3d flip effect. var flipTween:Tween = new Tween(mc,"rotationY",Strong.easeIn, mc.rotationY,mc.rotationY + 180,time,true)

However the rotationY is relative to the stage not the parent movieclip of mc.I.e: If the rotation effect on the movieclips looks different depending on where on the stage they are. I know that with the roation tool in cs4 you can rotate relative to the parent movie clip, how can you do this in AS3 code.

Actionscript 3 :: Tween Position Relative To Current Position?

I have a tween set on a timer:

Professional :: Make Movie Clip Non-clickable Unless Another Movie Clip Is Visible

Mar 22, 2011

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.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Distinguishing Relative Z Position?

Dec 10, 2009

Imagine that I make a movie clip that looks like a chess board, and that inside that move board I place other movie clips that look like pieces.Now imagine that I tilt the chessboard so that you are no longer looking at it top down and rotate it so that the dark pieces are first in front of you and and this slowly changes until the white ones are, etc.In order to make this look right I have to rearrange the stacking order of the movie clips (which pieces are "on top" of which other pieces when they are drawn). But when the clip rotates, the mc.z value for all the clips does not change. Neither does the width or height which I thought I could use instead even though they are clearly looking bigger or smaller onscreen.I think that I might just be getting the z point relative to the other children of the rotating movieclip. Is there any way to get the z point relative to the stage?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Moving Image Relative To Position?

Jan 6, 2010

I had coded a different file similar to this and had a movieclip move along the x axis relative to where the mouse position is.

The idea is the movie clip is a panoramic photograph (eg. 6000x900) and it would move dependant on where the mouse it. ie. if mouse is in the centre it will be stationary and when it moves left and right the image will move accordingly (faster when further away from the centre).

The code below works moving the movieclip's x position but when I try and do it with TweenLite (using the quotations for relative positioning) the movieclip snaps immediately to -107374182.4

ActionScript Code:
import com.greensock.easing.*
import com.greensock.*

[Code]....

There is obviously something fundamental I am missing but cant see it at the minute. I had this working previously but then tried to progress it and write my own class for the panning (that now turns out I do not have time for) but I saved over the code and cant not go back.

I have put together an example zip with a .fla and the greensock tweening platform.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Browser Scroll Bar Position Relative To .swf?

Jan 6, 2011

To make this more clear I have a flash website coming near to the end of the design stage. I have a multi-layered scene with a resolution of about 700x1200 (so you would scroll down the page with the browser scroll bar). Basicly I want these layers to correspond to your scrollbar position as though the perspective changes. ie: scrolling down would push the fore ground at the normal rate but only pushing the background at a slower rate, (thus giving a 3D effect).I would imagine since the .swf would then need to talk to the scroll bar, there would be a need for another language as well as action script.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Sliding MC Position Relative To Contents?

Feb 29, 2008

I have a movie clip that I have given the a "sliding" variable to move it across the X axis. So far I have been using a variable of

Code:
movieClip.newX = -250;

but what i need to do is have the movieclip slide to a position which is relative to an object inside of it.

As i need the slider to move to a position that centers the object which the slider contains on centered on the screen - i have tried:

Code:
movieClip.newX = movieClip.ContentsObject.Stage.width/2;

but with no response. I realise that code is incorrect, but need something that will work in that way. I presume i need some sort of listener to follow the _x position of the specific movie clip.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Relative Mouse Position With Easing

Jul 20, 2004

Here is my cool code....

Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame)
{
_x -= (-20) - ((0.1 * _xmouse) - 60);

[Code]....

How can I make the easing start fast then go slow? Right now it starts slow and speeds up. Well not really, because it speeds up and then slows down once it gets closer to the mouse position. But becuase the mouse position is greater than that of the movement, it seems like it speeds up then just stops!

Here is the effect I am after....

Professional :: How To Set MovieClip Position Relative To Stage With Classes

Mar 1, 2011

I'm developing my first flash app. I'm trying to use classes because they'll be very important in my future app. I created a simple movieclip with a star. However, instead of putting it directly on the stage, I'm calling it from library, using the addChild method to place the star in the stage. To do that, I simple right click over the movieclip icon->properties->check export to action script->and I give a name to the class (for example: myMC)

Then, inside the class I wrote:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
public class myMC extends MovieClip {
var star:myMC=new myMC();
public function myMC() {
[Code] .....

As I am placing the two variables origin_x and origin_y inside the constructor, I'm expecting to get 250 and 200 respectively. After drop the star, I want to send it to it's original place, and that's why I need to keep this values. And here's the problem, origin_x and origin_y are both ZERO, instead of 250 and 200... The value is not relative to stage. I managed a little bit and I found this post : [URL]. Unfortunately I tried to replace by the suggested code, but both values remain zero. An interesting thing, is that if I put the star directly in the stage instead of calling it from the library as I am doing, I get correct values in origin_x and origin_y.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Position MovieClip Relative To Stage From Within Classes

Aug 5, 2011

I have a Flash file for an xml driven menu. There is the document Class, called Main. There is also a Navigation class. In the Navigation class, I position the location of main buttons and sub menu buttons for the menu. I want to position the buttons in the Navigation class relative to the stage. Currently, they are just fixed at certain positions (like 20); To do this, I have read that because this is not happening in the document class.

I must add an event listener to the constructor that listens for the added to stage event. I am not sure how to do this, as when I try and add an event listener for added to stage in the Navigation class nothing happens, (or all menu items diaspear). How to position movie clips relative to the stage (i.e. stage.stageWidth - 50) from a class that is not document class? How to do so in the document class, too.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Shift / Scale Relative To Position At Click

Aug 19, 2006

I've recently taken Krilnon's tutorial on interactive image panning, and have a need for more complexity. My image to be panned (relative to user's mouse movement) has several 'hot spot' buttons placed within. Each hot spot, when clicked, is to smoothly zoom and shift within the mask, with pertinent info displayed next to each, once zoom and shift is complete. almost like I'm making a motion tween, where the final position is known, but the start position is wherever the BG image is when the user clicks the nested button. I need to determine the x-position at the moment of click of the button (different for each button), and then, I think, use a simple-math "stagger-step" method of moving and scaling, until I've reached my final dest. here's the link to the tutorial I originally referenced:Url...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get The Position Of A Movie Clip, On A Particular Frame Of A MC?

The movie clip is sitting on frame 6 (labelled "Shooting") of a movie clip called PDFstanding.

The position returns perfectly if I place the .shooter MC on the first frame of PDFstanding, but on frame 6 the variable result just returns "undefined".

What have I missed? If I need to reference the particular frame the 'shooter' movie clip is on, then what is the correct syntax?

Here's my code...
