View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a flow chart base application. where user can create connection from output node to input node.this connection is visible by using a line between nodes.I am trying to create a custom class for this functionality "outputDrag.as".There are some issues which I am not able solve here
Details
Yellow triangle = output node (outputDrag.as is attched to this)
Yellow circle = input node
problems
1. when user drag mouse from o/p node, an interactive line from o/p node to mouse pos
2. when user release on i/p node create a new line parmanently btw o/p node to i/p node
3. when user moves the root nodes(gray box and gray circle), parmanent connection btw them should redraw.
4. there is a simple class "drag.as" attached to (gray box node) to move it on the stage.if i attach this class to (gray circle node movie) and I press and drag mouse on yellow triangle, entire node moves. How can I prevent this dragging?In general if you have a movie, with simple drag class attached, how do you prevent dragging that if mouse is pressed on some particular child movies, it shouldn't drag.
I'm relatively new to flash, and just upgraded from Flash 6 to Flash 10. This is a HUGE jump for me, but strangely, I already feel more at home in Fl10 than Fl6, as it is more object oriented, and as a hardened programmer, I like.I'm attempting to create dynamically animated objects in a flash application. I can't think of a way to approach the issue without either a: converting each keyframe into a bitmap, or b: brute-force generating each frame every step of the way.Seeing as my application will have hundreds of the little bastards on the screen at any time, option b is out of the question, I presume.
So, essentially, I have a few questions about AS3:
1) Can a curve be modified after it has been drawn, or must it be cleared, then redrawn each frame?
2) Can a IK chain modify curves, or is it only per-symbol?
3) How fast can flash render complex objects in 3D? (I.E. would drawing hundreds of 400+ poly objects be too much?)
4) How fast can flash draw vector objects? (I.E. would drawing hundreds of creatures made up of dozens of curves be too cumbersome?)
I'm in the process of creating an application in AS3 where the user can arrange a number of display objects (move/rotate/scale/...) in a container.When the objects are added and arranged in the manner the user prefers I would love to have a button that 'captures' a part of the screen and returns an imagefile (JPEG?, BMP?) that can be used for example in MS Word.
View 1 Repliesi'm trying to create a expanding Form with a smooth transition effect, here the code:
<s:TitleWindow xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"[code].....
But the problem with this is that even with creationPolicy set to all not all items seem to get initialized. This causeses the tweener animation to lag when clicking the "register" button the first time. after the first click, the animation is smooth.
I am using Flash profassional cs5 and want to create an iPad application but it only allow to make iphone application. It allows to install on iPad but the resolution is very small.

View 4 RepliesI need to make my Flash application create a connection to a remote application and have the remote application send periodic updates to my Flash animation. The remote app is written in VB 6, and does not support XML sockets. However, I don't need the ability to send or receive XML since I am going to be overriding the onLoad() event anyway.
Or maybe I do need that ability... I'm having trouble getting my onLoad() event to trigger. Right now I'm just testing the onLoad event like this:
[code]...
So, basically I'm trying to find out how I can format the data I'm sending it so that the onLoad() event triggers. I've read that the XMLSocket object listens for the Null byte, so perhaps the data I'm sending it doesn't terminate properly. I need a persistent connection from Flash to the VB app because the VB app will be the one initiating the updates to the Flash application. Is the XMLSocket the way to go here, or is there another class of objects that I'm missing?
seen a few different as 2.0 code for a drag and drop, doesn't have the smoothness of as 3. Anyone have a link to drag and drop multiple movieclips, no target necessary. Just a smooth drag and drop.
View 3 RepliesAll I want to happen is some text (6 words) animate in from the right hand side and slow to a stop in the centre of the banner. Simple.
The problem im having is the when the text animates on it tends to stutter and appear jerky whereas I need it to be very smooth.
Ive tried animating the text using basic frame tweening with easing and with various high frame rates.Ive tried various coding methods using tweening classes (both the inherit class within flash and imported 3rd party classes) which seem to improve the animation slightly but still with some random jerkiness.[code]...
How to create a smooth pop up [url]...
when click a button appear a smooth pop up window and make all behind objects dark.
Canvas.addChild() insists any DisplayObject added implements IUIComponent. But I don't want my core graphics engine dependent on Flex. Is there an obvious/common way around this, to have simple graphical objects like Sprites & Shapes in a Flex application? The individual DisplayObject children I want to add as children represent objects in a game world, like a spaceship or a missile or a horse...
Not sure if Canvas is the most appropriate container, perhaps Group or another class is optimal for a game-engine... example MXML & AS3 code showing a skeleton setup is most welcome. I'm targeting Flex4 & Flash 10, but Flex3/Flash9 solutions are still of interest.
I am currently in the process of making a flash layout. I am working on finding out how to create smooth transitions between pages. I know how to get from page a to page b but the transitioning is not working right. Is there some actionscript code I could use to make it so when you press a button it gotoAndPlays the transitioning movie and then shows the page.
View 1 RepliesI have a motion tween that is 180 frames in length. When the tween ends on the last frame and returns to the first frame to replay there is a slight jump in the tween. Is there anyway to stop the tween from jumping from last frame to the first?
View 3 Repliesok so im trying to create a sort of SMOOTH transition between swfs.
the problem im having is, targeting a specific label when i need it.
what i mean is, i can target it fine by tpecasting my external as a MC, but...it doesnt give me the desired effect.
for example, i want it so that when a button is pressed, go and play the "outro" frame inside the external swf, at the end of that same external swf, theres an " end" label, when that label is reached. something happens etc.
my problem is that when i hit the button, at the time of that event firing, the "end" is null or rather undefined because it hasnt reached there yet and i get an error or if i do a if/else statement, then i get the else part firing off since again, "end" isnt reached yet when the button is pressed.
i dont know how to make it fire when the "end" label is reached.
i tried while loops but...no good lol. thing froze flash for a bit until it did fire, by then it was a mess lol.
heres my code:
Code:
stop();
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("indexCoontentLoad.swf");
[Code].....
ive added a " here i get lost" comment to indicate the part im lost in/cant figure out how to write.
overall, what i hope to achieve is that when the "end" label is reached, something happens. else, just keep playing until it is reached.
I'd really like some feedback on how you create that smooth scrolling action on sites like electrongeek.net.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a flash application where the user can add points (I call them draggers) and he can move those points around an image. What needs to happen is that I will use these points and their coordinates to change the image.
What I need help on is how to accomlish the rotation. Let's say the user has added three points on the stage, and they want to rotate the three points along the center of whatever triangle they form.

A while ago, we created a replacement shell to run as a front end for a cybercafe. It was nothing fancy; just a flash movie that had button links to IE and a few trusted applications.
I'm trying to develop it further now and am wondering two things:
1. Is it possible to send an application to a frame within a movie? For example, have a static movie at the top with links, then when a button is pressed, the menu remains but the application opens below without overlapping. I know I can use HTML and frames but really want to keep it all in one movie/swf.
2. Is it possible to build on the above and have some sort of application lister that will allow you to switch between the two applications you have running. For example, a user may opem IE, the open Word. Word has now replaced IE and I want the user to have a simple click button to go back to an existing window rather than open another instance from the menu.
I'm working on C# application where I get some user input, so I'd like to save it as animation to SWF.
I searched the web for some open library to do that, but I've found only dead links. Is there any open library for that?
I want to create a flash movie which firstly loads a selection of images/objects into a portion of the frame. After this is complete, the user can then drag these objects onto another area and the object will be created where the user has chosen. The user can then drag another instance of the ojects onto the area.
For example, there is a background of a lake in one area. A selection of boat pngs are loaded in an area below the lake. The user can drag these boats and place them on the lake. They can drag a boat multiple times if they wish.
I have a movieclip that I want to be resized when a button is clicked. I want the animation to be smooth as if it had weight though. I read the tutorial on this but I need something slightly different, I would rather it where I can just refer to a function that is set in another movieclip. That way I could easily refer to it again and just set the height, width, and if possible, x, and y.
And my second question, is how to keep the border of my movieclip that is going to be resized the same thickness. I want the inside to be resized but the sides to stay the same width but move to stay on the edge.
I am creating a MS paint like application in flash.... for this i have taken a movie clip named board.....nd i am allowing to draw different shapes in it through drawing API. But i want to create a bucket tool so that when user click in the shape drawn in movie clip (through addchild()). The color of that shape should change..

View 2 RepliesI've been struggling my mind for two days and I can't still find an easy way to localize a Flash movie. Well, *tons* of flash movies... Previously (AS2) I was using the old trick of using variables in textfields. So if you used as var name "_root.text057" and you did something as "_root.text057='blah'", the text field was automatically updated.
What would be the more fast and efficient way to create a localizable application in Flash/AS3? I'm under the assumption that the programmer doesn't know exactly what is going to be loaded in his movie (how many text fields and so on) but he must still provide a mechanism as automagic as possible in order to redirect those pesky strings in a XML doc into the textfield where they should reside.

View 9 RepliesSpecifically, I have a demo of a flash game (sort of super mario style). In it I have two types of weapon - a simple fire and big fireball. I reviewed the code in order to learn flash better [I am very new - since around monday this week].
I saw that the program has a variable that keeps track of the number of uses I have left in each weapon. I tried to review all the places this variable was used but I couldn't find where it affects the drawing onto the screen.
I even tried removing the variable declaration and then testing it - so I may find all references to the variable -- By the way any convinient way of finding all references to a variable/method/class [I am using ADOBE FLASH CS5.5]?
Also, I tried changing the variables starting value to "12" and I noticed that when I test the game, the weapon has 12 uses indeed.
So my problem:1. It seems that this variable is somehow affecting the drawing. Yet, I don't know how it does so since all the code I have found that uses this variable has nothing to do with drawing. It is all, logic, like
if(var <= 0){
var--;
} else{
return false;
}
Where is this influence coming from?get all references to a variable[like in eclipse ctrl+shift+g]?
