I created an animation and I want to color it in. ( I made the drawings by paint brush in Flash). The problem is the thing seems to think that every little line I draw is a seperate item. I've tried breaking it apart but its time consuming
View 13 RepliesWe are creating an ecommerce site for my business and am trying to create a flash file that will allow the end user to select a color from a palette of 64 different swatches that they would like their item to be so it processed it into the order. I only need to create the flash file so they can select the color.
View 4 Repliesok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.
View 1 RepliesMy situation: I have a looping animation that contains multiple keyframes, and each keyframe contains a movieclip symbol I want to apply a color transformation to through actionscript.When I apply the color transformation once to the symbol, it works the first time around. But when the animation loops and plays again, the color transformation is gone.If I apply the color transformation at every keyframe each time in code, I can only display a few instances of the animation before the FPS suffers. Is there an efficient way to apply a color transformation once and have it stick?
View 1 RepliesI have CS4 and have (it has taken over a month) created a banner with moving clouds (912 x 74). To the left is our company name and all I want to do is have a navigation menu across the bottom. I did not want buttons, but text with a dignified mouse over effect or color change. The links would be to .php pages and the would read Requirements, Samples, Pricing, FAQs and Contact. The dev site is at [URL] where you can see what I have already done.

I received a tip from another forum to create a switch to see what was the value of the transformation and change what�s needed but i�m not used to work with switch which is confusing for me.
We're trying to find the most optimal memory solution to doing Player Color in a flash game for sprite animation. We're using CS3 Action Script 3.0. Basically we're using sprite animation but currently for every player we create a duplicate set of animations with just different color. This is very expensive. Vector graphics tend to slow down performance too much for our games so we need to use bitmaps and would like to stick to that. So for a bitmap the alpha channel really only needs 2 values 0 for transparent 1 for draw the pixel. Is there any way I can use the other 254 values for a player color algorithm. The best we've come up with is to do 1 set of animations & 1 set of color mask animtions. So in total we would have 2 full set of animations for 2-x players. The Color mask seems to need to be 32 bits. So what I have is 2 questions.
1) Is there a way we can make 1 set of bitmap animations but use the 254 other values in the alpha channed to do player color?2) Is ther a way to use a Mask set of animations but only use 8 bit not 32 bit?
I am having this issue with Flash CS5 Mac version:After making an animation, I export movie as Quicktime. When I view this movie, the animation leaves trails of color when an object moves across the screen, leaving behind little bits of color too. This does not happen when I export a SWF, but it does happen when I export a Quicktime movie. I export using Quicktime, so I can then I can export it into a flv in Adone media encorder.Why does this happen?

Since I have lots of buttons, I wanted to consolidate this code into a For loop.
I have a uint that i'd like to create a Color object out of so I can manipulate the tint as desired.
Code:

How can I create a Color object out of the above uint?

I'm trying to create an analog clock that changes color when its PM. The only thing is that the variable won't update. I made the code a function and put it in a code block that runs every second. To make it clear: The function DOES work, it just doesn't update the variable ampm which means when the clock passes 12, it won't change color. The function only gets the variable once from what I can tell. I traced the variable ampm when the local time was 3 PM but even if I changed the time to 3 AM, the variable didn't change. So it'll change color correctly when the flash file is first run but if the time goes from AM to PM while it's running it will not change color.
Code:
Here is my function code:
function color():void
{
/* AM PM, if hours is greater than 11, that is 12 and 12 is PM */
if (hours<12)

View 2 Repliesi have a button, with instance name lightblue_color. I am assigning a color to its color field like this: lightblue_color.transform.colorTransform.color = 0x65ffff; then i am adding an eventlistener to the button like this: lightblue_color.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ChangeColor); Then, in the function: public function ChangeColor(evnt:MouseEvent):void {trace(evnt.target.transform.colorTransform.color);} It prints 0. Why is that? Shouldn't it print 0x65ffff or do i need to do some type conversions?

I need to highlight a button's border, so I have created a glow filter like this:
<s:GlowFilter id="GlowFilter1"
color="0xD9D919"
blurX="30" blurY="40"
alpha="1"

The problem is that I don't know to remove the effect. The effect remains in the opction as it was highlighted. Thus, I'd like to set a duration, or something that removes the effect I create.
I was wondering if anybody knew how to create the title animation as seen in 10 Things I hate about you opening credits.URL...

View 1 RepliesI'm in a class in which I have to create a web app with animation, etc. The animation part I got after some sweat. I managed to create some buttons with the graphics for the 4 states. When I try to use those button is where I start getting lost. I've reference 3 or 4 books, lynda.com videos, etc. I can follow the code when I see it, but I have no idea what to do. Some seem to set the stop and start in the button, some in a layer with AS3 -
What I have is a background layer with static graphics, another layer with the animation, also static in that the picture changes BOOM each time, no tweening. There's a layer with audio that is lines up with the animation. I can get the audio and animation to play together. I just can't get them both to stop and start when I hit any buttons.
All 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 can I create animation in sequence? As soon as one motion ends, how can I get a second motion to begin? I would like to make item 1 move and then item 2 move. etc, while item 1 disappears or remains stationary.0
View 1 RepliesI'm a novice in flash when it comes to actionscript and xml. Let me explain what I have so far and what i want to do with it. I have a basic flash animation, which constists of 12 images horizontally scrolling across the movie stage.It is animated to scroll from right to left at a speed of 1. I would like to update all those images once a month and so I'm looking for a way to do it using xml. Has someone done this before? It will make it a lot easier to update, rather than have to manually swap out pictures in the flash file.
View 7 RepliesI want to create a simple animation of a game so you can see the playout of a game. It should be an animation in which you just see the game Tic-Tac-Toe played. I have the states of the games in a description. So player 1 marks a cell = state 1; player 2 marks a cell = state 2 etc.. I currently have the game parsed in a ruby program; it will be easy to display just one state (like in the image), but how do I create an animation from it? Is there an easy way to do this? I'm open to solutions in every language but it shouldn't take to much time to implement. I want to show such an animation in a presentation.

View 3 RepliesFor a project I'm working on I'm trying to create a Flash file with a constantly color-shifting gradient that fills up the entire browser window. For a better explanation please see the following link:
View the Example
Don't worry about the moving balls, those are just there to challenge the frameRate of the movie, which has a maximum of 60. If you look at the background you can see the gradient effect I'm referring to.
The method I'm currently using to create the gradient animation is a simple shape tween on the Flash timeline that tweens between shapes with different gradient colors. I'm definitely not achieving the performance I want using this technique.
I've also tried creating a static gradient and shifting its color over time using ColorTransform, but this doesn't offer any better performance.
So that's a long-winded way of asking what people think would be a better way to create such a color-shifting gradient while getting better performance? Some examples might be through bitmapData or using PixelBender, but I'm not versed enough in these techniques to know which would get me the best performance.
