IDE :: Recommendations For Transitions Using 3.0?
Dec 30, 2009
I'm building my first AS 3.0 application and am using external .swf files that load into a main.swf. I'm creating transitions for each external .swf as they are unloaded so when the user clicks next, the current .swf transitions out and the new one comes in. Since loadMovie and levels are obsolete in 3.0,I've looked into the transitions manager class, but some of my transitions are pretty intricate so I would need to use timeline based tweens.

I'm doing some research for a Maps project I'll be starting soon, and I'm trying to evaluate which of the Map APIs will be best-suited to this project. I've worked pretty extensively with the Google Maps Javascript API, but no others. My basic requirements are, in no particular order[code]...
Flexible: the Google Maps JS API is a good example of this. Basically this leads to lots of good things like numerous third-party plugins/extensions, and puts a lot of power in the devs' hands.
Well-documented and supported: again, the GMap JS API is a good example. If I'm going to start working with a new, rich API, I'm going to need to be able to find answers.
As of now, I'm inclined to use the Google Map Javascript API since I am familiar with it. However, the question of whether or not the Flash API might be able to handle many points more efficiently and gracefully prompted this SO question.

I am preparing an offer for a customer. They proide weekly data to different organizations. There is huge amount data suits OLAP that needed to be visualized with charts and pivot tables on web and custom reports will be built by non-it persons (an easy gui). They will enter a date range, location which data columns to be included and generate report and optionally export the data to Excel. They currently prepare reports with MS Excel with Pivot Tables and but they need a better online tool now to show data to their customers. Tables are huge and need of drill-down functionality. My current knowledge Spring, Flex, MySql, Linux. I have some knowledge of PostgreSQL and MSSQL and Windows. What is the easiest way of doing this project. Do you think that SSRP (haven't tried yet) and ASP.NET better suits for this kind of job. Actually I prefer open source solutions. Flex have OLAP Data Grid control which do aggregation on client side. JasperServer seems promising but it seems I need enterprise version (multiple organizations and ad hoc queries). What about Modrian + Flex + PostgreSQL solution?

I am working on a slideshow (sort of). The idea is that each frame in the root timeline works as a slide. Each slide inside each frame is a simple MC filled with images, texts, audio and animations and so on. Once this MC reaches its last frame, it should stop and trigger another MC used as a transition. And I've put inside this transition MC a code that should tell the root timeline to advance a single frame in order to show the next "slide".
So, on the timeline, I've put this code:
***
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(slide._currentframe == slide._totalframes){
[code]....
Well, needless to say it is not working. The whole swf just stops. And if I remove the stop() code of the Transitions MC at frame 2, the current slide will loop before the transition triggers the nextFrame command.

I only open it up a couple of times a year to replace a banner ad in a clients web site. But I am having a problem with the transitions that I haven't experienced before. I created a new flash file with text that fades in over 24 frames before going to the next bit, but when I test it, it just jumps from one text to the next without the fade in. It plays fine on the stage, but exports the .swf file without the fade transitions.

Below is the code which is used to trigger the transitions. For reference 'home' is movieclip and 'homestate' is a button in the movieclip.
home.homestate.onRelease=function(){
if(_root.section!="home.swf"){
_root.section="home.swf";[code]....
I try incorporating these actions into the first script but I get an error.

i was also wondering if it's possible to make transitions with masks using actionscript?i have section headers that i want to transition when certain buttons are clicked, and depending on what button is clicked, a new section header is shown. i put all the section headers in a movie clip, with different frame names, so when the button is clicked, it jumps to the different frame name of the movie clip.for the transition, i basically want a wipe left to reveal the section header.. and a wipe right to hide it... and to do this, i figure i'd need to mask...
so i put a mask over the movie clip and realized that flash doesn't mask movie clips very well, when using masking layers.. so it doesn't really work properly.is there a way to do this using actionscript? and if so, how? i know flash know has a setmask property for movieclips..but can you modify the mask property's size??

I have a menu with 4 buttons, once clicked each button sends you to its corresponding section (frame label). Each section has a different loading animation. Once in a section I would like to go to another but before this that section's specific transition animation must play. Now I've looked around and all I can find is how to do this with a universal transition animation.

[URL]theres the link for the turorial. my questions is, how can i use movieclips instead of using buttons. i thought it would be simple enough to create a movieclip, add the on release as to it and done, but it doesn't work. i also converted the file to flash 8 btw.

Is there an updated version to this tutorial? I'm specifically trying to apply the technique, but using a tween engine (tweenlite) as well as MovieClipLoader.Or perhaps there's a newer, more efficient way to load swf's with transitions?

I read the tutorial about transitions between external swfs and started implementing it! So as a good and ordonate guy that I am, I put the index.html in the root, created a style folder for the style and a folder for the swfs. I was struggling about one hour to find out why it wouldn't work, to find out that if I move the html inside with the swfs, being in the same directory, it worked fine!

I am using Flash CS3 AS2 I have a main movie into which several external swfs are loaded. Two of these swfs are left_menu and middle_menu. I would like these to be able to talk to each other. When the 'home' button is pressed on 'left menu' I would like 'middle_menu' to go to a certain frame and play out. I have had a look at the tutorial which differs a bit and I'm a little confused (very new to actionscript!). I have put on by 'home' button if 'left menu':

I know how to do transitions that use external swf files using levels
What if i wanted to do it all in one swf? an example is here below:
[URL]
If you vist the profile page for example, you will see four main buttons at the top, Details, experience, favorites and hate. If i click on one of these some secondary buttons appear underneath, RED ones.
Now then if I press experience for example, the red buttons appear below and now if i click on favorites the experience buttons slide out to be replaced by the favorite buttons. I could do this with external swf files and use midframe actionscript but this all appears to be happening in one swf.

I am creating my first Flash Web site, learning ActionScripting as I go. I think my most recent problem requires some simple scripting, but I haven't found a solution on the Board, so I decided to post this message.
Basically, I am trying to make the transitions between each section of my site seamless, and in absence of any HTML-like jumps in which the page just cuts to another. For example, when you click on a button from the main navigation area of my portfolio site, you are taken to another section (separate scene),and the content area changes.I want the previous scene to fade out, after the button is clicked, before the new scene loads. Another words, I need to figure out how to tell the timeline to do this for each button:
When I click the Graphics navigation button,FIRST play frames 300-310 of the current scene (fading out animation)THEN take me to the frame label graphics.Heres the code attached to my Graphics button currently (it nested inside a movie clip, hence the _.root part). How would I change this to get it to play frames 300-310 of the current scene before it takes me to the graphics page?
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("graphics");
}

I'm new to the world of as3. I was wondering if it was at all possible to have the UIloader load my external images with automatic fading transitions . I have searched the internet, and have found a few methods that include xml files, but I was wondering if there was a simpler method that used code that could have the same effect when directed to the source location.

I'm building an iPad app with some stories and I have an animation that runs when each story is opened. I created the first animation at 30fps and it works great on an Android tablet and in the Air debug launcher, but when I compile it for the iPad the transitions are very jumpy. It acts like it's only running at 5fps on the iPad.

I need to do some work with some custom tweening and I understand how I'm suppose to do it.However CS5 is not able to resolve my import statements.I have import fl.transitions.Tween;import fl.transitions.easing.*;and both of these cause an error. The error is "definition fl.transitions.Tween or easing could not be found"The import statements are turning blue so flash is recognizing the path and I am able to import other fl components like fl.controls and fl.events.

I have problems with flicker when I zoom in a photo. If you look at [URL] you can see a lot of aliasing in the pictures.
I know that you can do this kind of transitions in Monoslide (watch the banner at [URL] but is it possible to do it in Flash?
