Classic Tweens Not Rotating Objects
Jul 25, 2011
So I just started using Flash CS4 from Flash 8, and I like it so far, but there's on major problem: the "classic tweens" (motion tweens) aren't rotating some of the objects I have. Like there's this flame thrower I drew, and I rotate it at the end of the motion tween, but it doesn't rotate. It will just wait till the last frame and then it will show the rotated frame. Motion works in the motion tweens, but not enlarging or rotating... why? It seems more like a glitch, because sometimes I make a classic tween and it rotates stuff just fine, but sometimes it just doesn't... what am I doing wrong here? What's going on?

Does anyone know if it is possible to set a custom default easing for all Classic Tweens in a project?

I have created 4 classic text objects and called them Butt1 thru Butt4.This is so I can change the text in code from time to time.I want to create an event listener to pick up when the user;
a) mouses over Butt1, etc.
b) mouses out of Butt1, etc.
c) clicks on Butt1, etc.
In each case I will define a function to perform actions when the button is moused over, moused out or clicked.AddEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler); does not seem to have parameters(as far as I can tell)to point to Butt1, etc.

I am making an animation that tweens two different objects at different speeds dependent on the position of the mouse. This is working fine, however, when the user takes the cursor outside the flash box and enters the frame it jumps to that position.
I have created a tween for this first instance however, if the user continues to move there cursor before this tween has finished it continues to jump.
Here is the code I have written
Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, CheckDirection);
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

I need to reassign z value to some objects that are rotating in 3d. (see attachment).
This is my code: but it doesn't work:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:uint=0; i<container.numChildren; i++) {
cont[i]=container.getChildAt(i)
//cont[i].z=cont[i].transform.getRelativeMatrix3D(root).position.z;
[Code].....

Whats the 3d capability in flash cs5, I've been told there is a new 3d tool for rotating around objects. Does that mean an obj import is possible? I am eventually aiming for a series of gear wheels, one facing the screen rotating on its z axis. Is this possible.

I have two drag-related questions. The first one is how to rotate an object by clicking and holding on it, then moving the mouse round in circles. Think of a clock face, and the user clicking and holding on one of the hands, then spinning it around. The centre point would be the part of the hand that's attached to the middle of the clock face, and the other end of the hand would be able to rotate 360 degrees around the face.
The second one (and not related to the first one, a separate query altogether) is how to drag something horizontally along the screen, but have it stuck at a certain speed. So if the user tries to quickly drag the clip from left to right, it will not reach the right instantly, but instead follow the cursor at a slow speed.

I am trying to understand what part of AS3 script says loop through(create a continues 360 loop of objects) the images from an XML file, does this make any sense.[code]is this the part that says loop the images/objects.this is a little more to the script including the above to maybe understand better?[code]

All I need to do is rotate an object (which could spawn at any point along each of the four edges of the screen) so that it faces towards the centre of the screen. Obviously this will be done using the .rotationZ property. I will know the starting point of the object, and the centre point of the screen (400, 300). The object begins facing directly 'up' (e.g. if it spawned directly below the centre of the screen it would already be at the correct angle).

I'm working on putting together a game at the moment which is similar in many ways to mini golf (or crazy golf, depending on where you come from). It is shown from a side-on view and to play the user must select the ball by holding the mouse down over it, then drag the mouse to indicate the direction they wish to fire the ball in. The distance they drag the mouse (this is capped obviously) determines the power of their shot.
I am currently using a triangular object with the tip placed at the centre of the ball to show to the user the direction they have chosen. This triangle rotates to face the position of the mouse, and I'm trying to get it to extend/shorten based on the distance from the mouse to the ball. I have code in place (below) that works when the mouse is either to the left or right of the ball, but behaves rather strangely when the mouse is above or below the ball. When the mouse is in either of the latter locations, the triangle extends to be far bigger than the maximum length allowed by the program, yet a trace shows it is still within acceptable limits! I'm almost beginning to think that Flash is switching the 'width' and 'length' attributes around when the object is rotated by either 90 or -90 degrees!
The code I am using is:
[Code]....
Here's a couple of screenshots of the game as it currently stands too - please don't laugh at the horrible placeholder art: none of it is final haha (also note that I haven't implemented 'gravity' yet, so everything is sort of hovering in mid-air.) The first image shows the code working as I want it to with the triangle at it's max width, the second shows the triangle going 'huge.'

i'm using flash with box2D 2.1a. i'm rotating ball hanging on the string. The path which the rotating ball trace is ellipse. When releasing the rotating ball from the string i want the ball to fly with the obtained direction, velocity and strength. As you can see in the pictures.[URL]..I've tried to do it with setPosition (method of b2Body) and with various joints. But I haven't got the needed results.

I have an idea of a game in my head and I wan't to get somekind of functional demo of it done in flash (CS3). I've looked everywhere but couldn't find tutorial for it, as I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I'm not that good in Actionscript. I'm now trying to describe this problem. On screen there's 4 rectangles, 2 in a row. So it's 2 rows with 2 rectangles in each. between all of them theres 4 circles. If I activate a rectangle with mouse and use arrow keys to rotate it smoothly 90 degrees, 2 nearest circles rotate with it. And same thing happens with all of the rectangles.
So I'm looking for somekind of solution where rotating an object also rotates every circle around it. and when circle rotates 90 degrees with rectangle as it's center point, it can be also rotated with another rectangle. I think I can't explain this clearly?

There is an example of what I'm trying to do [URL]. The only difference is that I'd like to use several different objects in my file...and not only one (i.e., ball or whatever) - but different objects with different shapes, colors....circulating on the same "path".

How would i make hitTest work better with a rotating object(AS2). Becase i have a circle and it if gets near the rotating object (actually pretty far away) it starts the script,(new x and y)
I think thats the rotation script, becuase i took a break for like 4 days becuase it was irritating.

There are a couple of problems i'm having with this - the first is how to work out how to find where the tip of each sine curve is (ie the frequency) and the second is to work out how to rotate each object so that it slides sideways along the sine wave(note file is 800 x 600)here's my code: CarouselTest.as:
package
{
import com.greensock.easing.Sine;

i have a triangle that i generate using the following code:
Code: Select allinternal function generateTriangle(w, h, topPoint, color = "0xFF9900") {
var triangle:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
with (triangle.graphics) {
[Code]....
I use this function and a foreach loop to generate 9 differently colored and sized triangles, which works fine when i place them on the canvas. But if i try to rotate them they rotate around the 0,0 point - i want them to rotate around the center of the individual triangles, how do i do that?
1. How do i move a dynamically generated triangle inside a movieclip? Solved using [URL]
2. How do i access each of the triangles inside the movieclip, or even better, place them in 9 different movieclips using addChild so that i can move them around individually?

I've created a sphere, and used a texture of Earth to create a rotating planet (using movie material). Is it possible to add buttons or other interactive objects to the material itself that will be clickable?Is there any other method for doing this (for example if I want something to happen when the user clicks on Australia...)

When I want to ask for a small fee for my app, I'm not allowed to use TweenLite. So I started thinking I could probably replace the tweens with Flash's built-in Tweens. BUT I'm also using rotationY. Flash doesn't support this as far as I know. Are there Tween engines out there with a copyleft?

I've put together this simple code for an SWF with three roll over images (called: Training, Resources and Contact).When I roll over Training I would like the symbol Training_txt to tween its alpha to 1 (from 0) and tween its y axis to 220 (from 83).When I roll out of Training I would like to run the two tweens in reverse.
This works fine for each of the three roll over images, so long as each tween is allowed to fully execute before a new tween is started. The problem arises if i quickly move the mouse curser between the three roll over images before the previous tweens have finished executing.In this instance, the tweened objects start to behave erratically. They usually return to their original position as per the roll_out tween but then start jumping between y axis 200 and y axis 83 (without tweening - they just appear).
Code below -
stop();
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;[code]..........

I'm working on a slide show which includes 3 sections that fade in and out automatically as well as can be navigated via buttons.Everything is working fine until I include a 3d tween animation of a hanging sign.it doesn't have any action script - just a 3d tween where the sign swings however once I include it in the slide show, the whole thing goes crazy:The fade in and out of tweens don't work.sometimes the slide show skips and everything start moving very fast as if the timeline was fast forwarded... can someone please helpe me and point me in the right direction of where to even start trouble shooting it? The problem is that it acts as if there was some kind of script added however there's no action script included in the hanging sign.

I have a rotating menu that sets the selected button to the 3:00 position once clicked. I need the labels for the buttons to stay in the upright position as they rotate with the button. I have attached an image. Anyone know of an action script that would keep the labels upright?

I have a character on the stage (_ball_mc) which you control with the arrow keys. I also have a rectangle movieclip on the stage (this). I want this rectangle movieclip to act as a block platform.ie. When the character jumps ontop of it he can walk across it, if he walks into it from the left he cant move left any further, same with the right side.These movieclips are not being created at runtime, they are
on the stage.
My registration point of the character is bottom right,
my registration point of the block is top left
I've used the following ENTERFRAME with not much luck.Stopping the character from moving any further when he walks into the block seems to be ok. I'm having trouble getting him to land on the block without conflicting with the leftDown and rightDown.As this is such a common gaming element, I figure there must be some documentation on this ?

I created a classic tween on the timeline (not with actionscript), which moves a movieclip. If I change any property of that movieclip from actionscript, that layer stops updating, even if I change the value to its initial value. Can I access that tween on the timeline from actionscript?

I got Flash CS5 a few days ago and tried to compile some of my applications - got strange textfield representation, parts of words were missing. Very simple example to demonstrate something's not working right here:
-C-reate a textfield (classic; static) type "Test". Choose Arial Regular as Font.
-Create an input textfield (classic), choose Arial Bold as Font, embed the font with all glyphs (or subgroup).
-Compile it: Try to type into the input textfield - no cursor (for me at least), nothing shows up.
If you embed the Arial Regular also (which should not be necessary for a static text), the input field does respond but shows Arial Regular instead of Bold.So it seems you cannot use two weights of the same font in one Flash movie?Using TLF it works fine - but I can't switch over yet, some of my customers do still use Player 9.

Is there a way to upload an image using flex inbuild .browse() and classic asp? So in flex the user picks the image they want to upload, press a button to start sending it. A asp handler then gets the file, uploads it to a folder and then writes the filename in a database. Writing of the filename in the database is no problem.

I'm working on an AS3 project and thought I'd save myself some scripting by using classic tweens in the timeline to transition between filters on movie clips. They look fine when testing, but when I save the project, close, then re-open later, the tweens are gone.
Is this a known bug in CS4, or is there something I'm missing about classic tweens in AS3?
