View 3 RepliesSo I followed the 3D Carousel tutorial, the first part of it and the coding worked fine, but the reflection is not working properly. I used a .PSD file and followed the instructions step by step. I added the action script code in the end, but when I take a look at the preview, the reflection image is displayed just like the original picture. Is the .PSD format a problem?
View 1 RepliesI am using a self modified version of Lee's carousel 3 tutorial on my website. A couple of my icons on the carousel are .swf movies that I have optimized. Is there any way to preload all of my swf movies that are being called up from the xml? I've seen the swf preloading tutorial but I'm not sure how to apply that towards the carousel or even if it's possible to do so since the preload is happening as the user first enters the site and not when a button is pushed, etc...
View 4 RepliesI am not new to html or flash but, some what new to XML. I created a carousel based off the tutorials and it works great on my computer but, when I create an html file and attach the .swf file the flash file loads but, the icon images or anything from the .xml file doesn't appear.This is what I use to load my .swf file :
<div id="spacer">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" [code].....
Do I have to put a special script in the html document for it to be able to see the xml file?

how to remove children and Enterframe function from my carousel ? See code below:
ActionScript Code:
function createGallery(voteImagesArray:Array,voteNamesArray:Array,gallery:MovieClip):void {

I want to navigate to the next frame without the images playing in the bg.
I've a carousel, that has got an image and a label that shows a description of the icon. It is done using It has got an ItemRenderer that renders the image above the icon description text. [URL].Up on click event I display the image and details of some text pertaining that image/icon.
Now I wanted to introduce a smaller 'x' icon on top right hand side of the icons so the user could remove the items he's not interested in from the carousel's list of items. This would dispatch a different event so removeIconEvent and clickEvent would be handled differently.
I am new to actionscript 3 and I wanted to know if anyone could direct me to some websites (Tutorials) which can help me create a gallery like the one in the link but using AS3. Any help would be really appricated, I am not asking for the code just tutorials I can use to create someting very similar to it. [URL]...

View 1 RepliesI have been looking at how to reflect a point in a line, and found this question which seems to do the trick, giving this formula to calculate the reflected point:
Given (x,y) and a line y = ax + c we want the point (x', y') reflected on the line.
Set d:= (x + (y - c)*a)/(1 + a^2)
Then x' = 2*d - x
and y' = 2*d*a - y + 2c
However there are two problems with this implementation for my needs:
My line is not described in the form y = ax + c (so I'd have to translate it, which is easy to do, but it means the process is slower). What if a is infinity ie. a vertical line?
Is there a simple way to calculate (x', y'), the reflection of point (x, y) in a line, where the line is described by the two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Edit:
I've found a formula which does this, but it seems as though it does not work with lines that look like they have equation y = x.
Here it is in actionscript:
public static function reflect(p:Point, l:Line):Point
{
// (l.sx, l.sy) = start of line

i am using 2 instances of an flv, and as you would expect they arent sync'd.so how do i 'clone' an flv in AS3 so that they are exactly the same?i have seen an example, but it was AS2, i am working with AS3, cs4..[URL]
View 5 Repliesi'm trying to create a "reflection" to scrolling text.i'm using a nice little scroller code that works very well on it's own. i thought just duplicating the movie clip and mirroring it would do the trick, but instead only the "reflection" bit is moving up and down, the rest of the items stay put.
i thought it might be a matter of changing instance names, but then the "reflection" is the same object, just mirrored vertically, so i'm not sure how one should go about doing this...i'm attaching both the FLA and SWF files...
I have an image and I want it to have a reflection and to apply an effect onMouseOver so that image bounces (like a rubber ball) until it stops.I found this example (http:url]....)that does exactly what i want (except I want it to bounce just one time per mouse over), but this is for Flex and I cant manage to translate it to Flash.

var thumb:Loader;

I am trying to provide a reflection for the images(movieclips) that I loaded on the stage. For this purpose I am using a reflection class. The class can be used with action script 2. the reflection is working finely. Also after loading the image or movieclip, I tried to give tweening for that image or movieclips. Thus also it works finely. The reflection of that also moves along with the actual image. The problem comes with the resizing the actual image. If I resize the actual image, the reflection would not be seen under the actual image.Can anybody know why it may happening like that. After searching for a long time, I got this class.But unfortunately, the reflection would not be working when the image or moviclip resizes.

I'm trying to create an image reflection at runtime, using this code I found on the WEB. It all seems to work fine as long as I'm loading an image from the local drive, but when I try loading an image from a remote server, the reflection no longer appears.[code]
View 13 RepliesIs there a way to "reflect on" static members of an ActionScript object (get all the static properties/methods of that type programmatically)?
Why is that flash.utils.describeType(*) can only show non-static members?
What I've done so far is using your mouse you (click & release) you shoot a ball off in that direction using radians. Now what I'd like to happen is when the ball hits the wall it bounces off in it's reflection angle. Eg. if the ball hits the right-hand-side wall travelling at in a radians of -0.65 it should bounce back in the radians of about -2.5
View 3 RepliesI have a image loaded in a sprite, the image is from a remote location [URL]. Once the image is loaded in the Loader Object i then want to create a reflection of the sprite that contains the image. Now this works when i run the application in flash IDE but when i embed this flash application inside a HTML page the reflection images do not work. Why is this, the code is below.

I'm using the code 'rotate towards the mouse' from [URL].. It works fine to rotate the clip, but there's two things I'd like to have happen here: 1. At a certain angle of rotation, the MC that is following the mouse reflects horizontally. example: a profile of a head is following the mouse. i don't want the head to be upside down when the mouse reaches the back of the head, but rather the head flips over to watch the mouse.
2. Boundaries: is there some way to set up the code so that the MC stops following the mouse when it reaches a certain position on the Y-axis?
I'm working on a new site: [URL]. However, I've got some problems with my reflection of the mouse-pointer. The problem is that I don't know how to create the fake 3D effect, because now when you move your mouse over "Identity" the reflection is above the real mouse. I was thinking to put a mask, so the reflection cannot go above the real mouse, but then there is no reflection.

View 4 Repliescreate a reflection of the rounder corners rectangle. I realized thet there in no beginGradientFill method in Graphics3D and the gradientHorizontalPlain creates a basic rectangle without rounded corners. Also, I doesn't look like I can use masks in 3D (at least I failed trying it).All I could do is just create a semi-transparent rectangle under, but with no reflection (fading out) effect:[URL]
View 1 RepliesI'm making a game with a moving avatar (it moves by itself ), his direction is given by a vector which only change when colliding with another object (which I called Mirrors ). So my avatar has a moveX and moveY properties ( sort of vector so ). And by clicking and holding the click to somewhere else, then releasing it, you can trace line (Mirrors) which have properties like start and end coordinates, a normalized vector for them, and a normalized normal vector. When the avatar is colliding with a mirror, its move vector change, to be redirected like with a mirror reflection.
Here are problems : The collision is only check before the avatar move, so if my avatar move 3 pixels by 3 pixels, and if my mirror is like x = 5-10, my avatar x = 1, it will move one time : avatar.x = 4, no collision. second time : avatar.x = 7 : collision, but my avatar is partially "in" the mirror, so weird... To solved it, my avatar only move 1 pixel by 1 pixel..
Second problem, when my avatar come in contact with the "bottom" or "top" of my line (imagine a vertical line), it does some strange things like go through the line and shaking.. I don't know how to manage that, it actually occurs sometimes even if it does hit at the line itself.
