View 1 RepliesI have a network graph visualization generated using Gephi containing many nodes and edges.I need to produce an animation of a camera (or moving movieclip) to "flythrough" the network along the path of the bezier curves, visiting each (not necessarily every) node at random. I've made a quick animation of what this would look like.
How can I achieve this programmatically through AS3 or Processing or using mbostock D3 javascript library on github? My attempt in AS3 so far has been to convert an SVG produced by gephi into AS3 code using Miller H. Borges Medeiros' tool then try to adapt a bezier tweening library such as Zeh Fernando's example but I'm having difficulty.Medeiros' converter is splitting quadratic beziers into 4 separate quadratic beziers, and I'm not sure how to transform flash's curveTo Method into an array of bezier points as in Fernando's code.Then there is the problem of animating the camera through only those nodes which are connected to eachother.
I've gotten as far as getting a listbox with a list of articles to display the articles in a dynamic text box, only i can only get it to work if i use one huge external text file that contains all the articles. what i want is to have each item on the list open up its own external text file, i.e. for each item on the list, there exists a separate text file. I'm about ready to put my fist through the monitor, and that would suck because this is a really nice monitor
View 13 RepliesI'm trying to create something similar (and w/fewer lines) to what is on this site[url]...
I've done plenty of searching and have found some good stuff, but what i'm having trouble finding is how to incorporate random motion/bending of the lines.
In the current document I'm working on I'd like to expand or spread out the width of an object on both ends when clicked.Currently the Scale X property only pushes it to the right. How would I make it spread out evenly on both the right and the left? how would I make it "fill" the document so that if it's not perfectly centered it will spread out to the edges?
Code:
if (s==false)
{
s = true;[code]..........
Does anyone know if there is some kind of program that can convert the XML paths to Flash paths. Hmm...what I'm after is some little program that basically lets me open up an XML file, point on a node or attribute and the program will the flashpath to this node/attribute, where the path is something like: his.firstchild.childnode[2].attribute.jadajada

I�l loading some text from a xml filme into Flash (dinamic text field)But I can�t break the lines. When trying to break the lines with ENTER on the xml, the flash breaks two lines.I learned that using #&10; the lines would break just once. But how can I make this if I�m going to build a xml editor using php? Is there another method of breaking lines when desired on xml?
View 1 RepliesI want to identify specific strings in a text box from user input to add to a score variable, like so -
[Code]...
The example given adds 1 to the score, but if a user adds a space then a second word the text box views it as a whole and not individual words, resulting in no values added to the score variable.The problem lies with the whole text box being viewed as one entire string. Instead, I want to split it up so word1 will add 1 to the score, word2 will add 1 to the score, etc.
I trying to load indivual strings of text from an external file. example: I have a movie that navigates from frame to frame. on each frame I'd like a line of text to load into the movie. When the user navigates to the next frame the text loaded vanishes and is replaced by another line of text. This can be done with separate txt files, right but I was wondering if and how it could be done using one external text file.
View 2 RepliesI have 5 text files that contain a list of 50 items in each file.
I want to bring that information into a datagrid; 1 column per text file. I'd also like to extend the code to add more columns when new files are created.
I was able to bring in one column, but maybe an approach with xml, an xml connector and dataset would be better.
Here is the code so far:
Code:
var PATH:String = "10-12-09.txt";
var extIndex:Number = PATH.lastIndexOf( '.' );
var extless:String = PATH.substr( 0, extIndex );

View 2 RepliesI am struggling to find a way to animate a fill of text in Flash CS4. The concept I am looking for is that over a time period have the color rise from the bottom to the top. My initial attempt was to have 2 objects, one filled with the color and the other filled with white. I was hoping to just adjust the borders of the object or text to have it disappear, but that just reshapes the object, not cropping it. If you know how to crop into objects and reveal the object beneath, let me know.
I am very new to Flash so hopefully it is a simple answer, but I am not seeing it yet.
I found some code to dynamically load images from an xml file and animate as a slideshow/movie. However, I need to do the same for text. I have created the animation for text in a movie clip, but now I need to dyanmically load text from either an xml or txt file, drop a phrase into the movie clip and animate over the photos every few seconds. (There will be about 10 sections of text to animate throughout the movie).

View 10 RepliesI simply want to put a movie on my website. I have other flash movies on my site that work fine. I import the video for progressive view. Publish the .fla. I get a .swf and an .html. I upload the files to my website and NOTHING! I check them locally and they work fine. Then I publish them again and they no longer work locally.
Flash 8 publishes them by default to my desktop. But if I use the default paths in CS4 the files don't even publish...they are nowhere to be found even with a search of my HD. I took html code from my site that was working and just changed the .swf file name. that didn't work either.

I decided that this was okay but I wanted to change it so text/staff etc.would update dynamically from a text file. Got this working and moved on to simple alpha tween animation.I have several dynamic buttons that fade onto the stage perfectly. When the user selects a button a variable is loaded which updates the adjacent dynamic text box (within a MC). However, if I try to tween this text box, it goes to full alpha if I place stop() in the last keyframe.If I remove stop() it will loop and display correctly.
