Ive been scouring the web on flash & math sites trying to figure out how to change a typical 3d carousel so that all the items rotate @ a -45 degree angle. I know Its probably only like 2 lines of code I need! You can see what im after here: (They dont sell source or I would just buy it)change rotational angle under general properties.URL...
View 1 RepliesI have a carousel built and it works fine, but there is an angle on it that I want to get rid of. When the images move along the carousel, I want them to always stay the same on the X axis. Here is the code, I have tried mangling it in every possible combination, but it is outside my AS3 knowledge on how to get the angle changed.
import mx.utils.Delegate;
var numOfItems:Number;
var radiusX:Number = 1150;
var radiusY:Number = 50;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width / 2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height / 6;
var speed:Number = 0.002;

Is there a way to move the center point (rotational point) of a movie clip using actionscript?
View 3 RepliesWhen you load a object through flash, you can set the rotational/scale point, but when you load it as a loader object or sprite, how do you change this point?
In this instance, I want to change the height of a sprite that is filled with a rectangle so that it shrinks down, not up.
Right now:
var colored_bar:Sprite = new Sprite();
with (colored_bar.graphics) {
beginFill(0x9e1819, 1);
[Code]....
The way I am doing it currently is moving the y position everytime I take away soem of the height, so it looks like it's moving down, but I'd think moving the orientation point at the beginning would be faster
How can change the angle of a premade BevelFilter with AS3.0? (made in the Flash interface, not generated by ActionScript). I tried doing:
ActionScript Code:
myObj.filters[0].angle = 225;
But it doesn't seem to change not even when I trace the value out. When I trace myObj.filters[0] I get returned [object BevelFilter], meaning that the filter does exist.
I am working on a Drag n Drop interaction. I am going to use this in Captivate so, can't use script with _root. Here is what I am using. I got this script online and works perfectly fine. I have multiple boxes and snapAreas.
But now I want to add one more feature. That is; when the box rolls over snapArea, I want the box to change the angle to 90. IS this possible and how, I tried my best and couldn't get it.
var fixedX:Number = box._x;
var fixedY:Number = box._y;
box.onPress = function() {

So I've been staring at my screen all day, my client getting increasingly irate trying to work out what's going on.
I'm on Flash CS3, AS 2.0
Here's my code:
Actionscript Code:
//set stage for FBFStage.align = "TL";Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";loadMovie("image.jpg", pic, 'GET');//define dynamic aspect ratiospicHeight = new Object ();picHeight = pic._height / pic._width;picWidth =
[Code].....
My problem is my client wants to be able to change image.jpg occasionally, to ones of different size ratios. If the "pic" movieclip has a box of the right size ratio inside it I have no problem unless I change the image, which I need to be able to do. If there is nothing inside the movieclip when I load it, the image always appears on its side, and I can't seem to get it rotate to the correct position!
i have made a custom scroll bar however when i change the angle of the scrollbar and the scroll line ( they are on the stage) it continues to scroll verticaly
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to edit a basic flash carousel which I made from online tutorials. The carousel has 5 smiling images(as buttons) rotating as normal and when you hover over an image, it changes to an angry face. Now what i'm trying to do is, when the images reach the 5 to 7 o'clock position it changes to the hover image automatically.

var radiusX:Number = 350;
var radiusY:Number = 160;

I'm attaching the file so that you guys can see that? pretty basic. My main problem is to find out how can the mouse check the mouse position on stage and make the coverflow animate and the movieclip change angle depending on the side, I have to animate only 5 itens, here?s the AS:

Ive made this rotation with AS. But Id like to make the bar to move from angle A to angle B smoothly.
How can I do this?
for example the rotational points of clock arms that are not in the center or edge of the arms to get aligned to the center of the clock face?

View 1 Replieshow to apply a rotational motion blur to a movie clip using the Tween Class and Blur Filter? I have found info on bluring an animation this way, but only via the x or the y axis, not the rotaion.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to find a function that will repeat my Rotational tween function. I found the yoyo() function to be what i want to do but i don't want the tween to change the rotation to CCW while originally moving CW. Basically i want the animation to move CW at a steady rate continuously.
I'm using the following code at the moment, i'm not too sure if this is the most suitable code for this situation, maybe im off track.
From my thoughts, i assumed that i would need to put the stars function in a onEnterFrame to repeat the animation and change yoyo() to continueTo() function. or maybe some sort of if statement in the stars function?
ActionScript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var stars:Tween = new Tween(ring, "_rotation", Regular.easeInOut, 0, 360, 4, true);

I'm using Flash CS4 Pro.In Motion Editor, the way that the blur works, it allows you to blur an object on X and/or Y axis.That means you blur horizontaly or/and verticaly.I would like to make a blur motion at another angle, by example 30 degree.

how to get angle of mouse its very simple.use this Script (copy and past in your file). A sample file which runs only on CS4 is attached.

I'm at a bit of a coders block, and I'm sure it's quite simple. I tried using the following:Code:((angle-180)%360) + 180But for angles < 180 degrees, it works just fine, but after that it get's a little funny. I know why it's doing that, I'm just looking for a way to fix it.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to retrieve the opposite radian angle after I have retrieve a radian angle from another calculation. This is using AS3
View 2 RepliesI need to limit an angle so it fits into a segment. I have drawn and links to a diagram below to better describe what I am after. I am trying to calculate this for a computer program, where I have an angle (slope), and a point (the mouse pointer). The distance does not matter to me, just the angles. If the point is within b1 (green area) then that's fine. But if the point is within b2 or b3 (red or orange) areas, then the angle should snap back to the limit of the green area (along the line s).
The main problem I am having in figuring this out, is snapping the angle to the correct side e.g. If the point is in the red area, then the angle should snap to the angle s on the red side and vice versa. I am also having trouble because s could be any angle, so I am being tripped up because I can't just do something like this:

I know 3D rotation is well documented on SO and many other sites, but despite reading countless explanations I still haven't figured out where I'm going wrong. My background is in art and design, not math and programming, and I'm never really certain if my angle of attack (no pun intended) is the right one. Rather than paste a patchwork of my dismal code, I'm including an image describing my problem. What I'd really like is a step-by-step worded breakdown of how to solve it. Pseudo code is useful, but I will learn more if someone will just aim me in the right direction or point out common pitfalls.

I'd like my text to be positioned on a 45 degree angle. Is there an easy way to do that? (In the worst case, I could always make a png out of the text). But, I hope that there's away to do it in Flex. I don't need an animated effect.
var angleText:Text= new Text;
angleText:Text.text = "My text is angled!"
angleText:Text.x= 200;
angleText:Text.y= 300;
I have this code :
var a:Apoint = new Apoint();
a.x =0; a.y=200;
addChild(a);
var b:Bpoint = new Bpoint();
b.x =275; b.y=100;

I have a method that takes a "distance" and "angle" parameter. How can I take the angle parameter to get x and y values, and incorporate the distance into that?
I am assuming that I would have to do something with a right angle triangle.
i am following a tutorial from a book, Learning Actionscript 3.0, A Beginners Guide, where it discusses how to move an object in an agle. I have managed to get the app working fine, but i'm tryin to test it out in different angles but everytime i change it seems to go into the same angle.[code]Can somebody tell me why for everytime i changed the value of the degrees, it does not updat the movement of the ball please
