IDE :: Movie Clips Contents Alpha At Different Rate During Tween Class Tween
Mar 4, 2010
If i have a clip with a bunch of stuff inside it (on layers) like other clips, bitmaps, etc. and perform a tween on that clip (via tween class), the stuff inside the clip seems to alpha at different rates.
For instance, i have a clip with an empty movieclip which loads a bitmap image and on top of the bitmap image, i have a gradient feathered edge (.png) bitmap and on top of that I have some dynamic text (embedded fonts).
The bitmap is supposed to create a feathered edge on the photo but since they alpha at different rates, you always see the hard edge of the photo...
is there a solution like cacheAsBitmap which would let the whole clip alpha at once? If it's cacheAsBitmap, i must be using it incorrectly, b/c it's not working!

I have created 3 movie clips and put them on my stage. I was able to get them to appear in the order that I want, however, how do I get them to dissappear in the order that I want? Here is the code that I have so far:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
new Tween(myLogo_mc, "_alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 100, 1, true);
if (_alpha == "100") {
[code]....
I would like to have the last two MC fade out (alpha down) and the myLogo_mc stay visible on the stage.

Now I am using the Tween Class to move some boxes in my movie, now I can move the first mc and then another mc after the first tween has finished with onMotionFinished but I was hoping someone could help with how do I start the second tween when the first mc has passed a certain _x coordinate. ie starting the second mc moving while the first tween is still moving.

What I am trying to do is a motion tween with two movie clips.
Clip A stays still all the time.
Clip B is first in front of Object A, it moves right until it no longer 'touches' A, then it starts moving left again, but this time goes BEHIND the object A.
The problem is, I do not know how to make the movie clip B go behind A.

Am trying to use the Tween class to scale and move a movieclip. Now the movieclip is within the loader, so I need the motion to be controlled by the percentage loaded. Now the code to move the movieclip to its final position is:
var xscaletween:Tween = new Tween(mstone, "_xscale", Regular.easeOut, mstone._xscale, 220, 6, true);
But this is the final location, I want to be able to change the properties of xscaletween, yscaletween, xmovetween and ymovetween as per percentage loaded.As in, within this final boundary limit of the tween, I want, for example, xscaletween, to scale only till 140 till percentage hits 50. Is this possible?? If not is there a workaround?Or do I have to use new tweens within each percentage limit?

I am trying to understand the thinking behind motion tweening using AS3 (rather than doing it on the timeline).I am trying to create a simple platform game, and while this is simply a learning project, I have an movieclip instance on the stage, and using basic x+5 logic I can get the instance to move left and right on the stage accordingly.Trying to make the instance 'jump' is a bit trickier. This is the code I am using:
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;[code].....
I thought this code would move the instance from it's current y-position and tween it to it's highest jump point. From here I planned to use a MOTION.FINISH event to tell it to tween back to it's original position.Something strage happens though, rather than tween from the current y position and move up, the instance instantly transforms it's position to y+100 and then tween back to the original position. So it kind of turns out that it is the second part of the jumping action that I want to create.

1) In the attached file, I have a movie clip that quickly comes across the top of the screen (following a short distance). I want it to start out with 0 alpha and i want it to fade in to 100 alpha. However, I want to do this using Actionscript while I'm EASING the movie clip. I'm trying to NOT use the timeline and do automated tweens for this function. If I combine them, it compliles but the output gets all messed up.
2) The quality of the text shown as the movie clip is not the same as how it looks in FLASH. I jacked up the quality of the output to 100% and it's still the same. any reason why?

I am writing a flash card game which slides the next card onto the stage when the user presses a button.There are 24 cards, and I have written a separate tween for each one... I think there is probably a more efficient way to do this. Here is what I have:

i want to have two different tweens on different movieclips within same layer...but what happens is..it groups both the mc into a single graphic...and applies tween for the entire graphic..and also i loose the Mc instance.
how can i achieve diff tweens on diff objects within a layer? More important is dont want to loose the MC instance

Is there any way to make a movie clip start at a given x and y point, and ends at another x and y point, in 90 seconds?m not getting a good result.The main problem is, I want the movie clip to travel along a straight line. And by this code below the "b" movie clips makes some curves.Heres what Ive done.
"p" is point movie clip
"b" is ball movie clip

What I want to do is tween a number from lets say 0 to 50 using the Tween class. The below is an example of my tween but it wasn't working (*NOTE* i'm using TweenExtended but if you change the tween to Tween only it will be the same thing, i just have a habit of using the TweenExtended class):

I'm creating a game where certain movie clips execute a motion tween when a button is clicked, and stay still when not clicked. I know that this sequence would probably use coding such as if...button pressed execute movie clip/else...
But I'm not sure how to code it. Also is it better to have the motion tweens as a nested animation in each movie clip, or should I just create the tweens on the main stage. And if I make them nexted animations how do you say in a function to play the nested animation?

I'm trying to learn more about using Tween Class to animate a movie clip. I've got an MC in the first frame of my timeline. Rather than use tweens in the timeline to adjust the x/y coordinates, height/width, and alpha of my MC, I'd like to use actionscript to accomplish this.My research so far has got me to import the transitions and easing,
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

I have a line that starts invisible then becomes solid then invisible again. First keyframe is alpha 1%, should the two keyframes that follow next in the timeline where it shows as full strength colour be left alone, showing still as colour>none in properties, or should I choose alpha and 100% ? Last keyframe again sees it given alpha 1%. ( I was told dont use 0% as it causes flash more work !)What is best practice here? I have many of these to do so leaving keyframes as 'none' for colour would make life much quicker.

Does anyone know of a actionscript that can tween something to alpha=0. Id like to tween something to alpha 0% from alpha 100% rather then do every single one manually. I have a thumnail box that changes images just thought it would be easyer to put a action on the timeline to fade it out rather then tween it one at a time.

I'm doing alot of banner ad's at the mo. So I'm using the old motion tween effect quite a bit... mainly an alpha tween... on imported bitmaps, and text. While the banners end up the way I want them, I've used alot of layers and alot of the time line. Is there a better way to alpha tween objects. Basicly, I've a movie clip, with alot of bitmaps and text, and they all have alpha motion tweens....

Using AS3, how do I create an alpha tween from one movie clip to another?
My thinking is that I can't use the timeline, because the fade is variable and event driven; e.g., the user clicks on one of many pics, and the stage alpha tweens from the current to the clicked.

I have a complex window I'm designing in code. It starts as a button-like thing and once clicked, expands out to a window with text, links, and other misc. stuff. I'm designing it with all the objects to start inside the custom object (extending a MovieClip) and use tweening to expand it all out. The expansion works fine, although it's admittedly ugly..I'm running into an issue when alphaing from nothing (the button is placed over text, completely alpha'ed out to start) to 1.0. It will only start to alpha in if I have the alpha start at greater than 0, even then, when it reaches 1.0, it is NOT full alpha as it should be. Here's what I'm doing, trying to keep what I suspect to be unrelated code out:[code]the alpha of the bg (a shape) is originally set to 0, this code gives me no alpha, if I start it at 0.1, then it gives me some ...what looks like 0.3 at the most

I am using the Fuse class [URL] for most tweens that I do, but I can't seem to target an array with the class.
Regardless all I'm trying to do is take this array (it actually has way more strings but you get the idea):
Code:
var clipArray:Array = new Array("full01_07", "full02_07", "full03_07");
And when I click a btn it fades out everything in the array to alpha:0.
Here is the code I use for fuse:
Code:
var hideClips:Fuse = new Fuse();
hideClips.push({target: ????? , alpha:0, time:.25, ease:"easeInQuad"});
hideClips.start();
i did try target:clipArray[i], it doesn't work.

The links on the site above have a nice alpha tween effect. It looks like the rollover fades out the alpha so that the links appear brighter. When you rollout the alpha reduces.
What would be the best/most logical way to do this? I presume you create some AS that contols the alpha tween and keep this on the timeline as a function. Then for each button you call the function.

If I have a movie clip that resides and plays in one frame, and I want an second (visible=false) movie clip to play on the same single frame as soon as the first is finished... what kind of event to I use? Do I have a frame action inside and at the end of the first movie clip that throws out some kind of event to tell the second to play?Basically, I have a menu (first movie clip) that alpha tweens up, then the buttons (second movie clip) to appear when the first is 100% alpha.
