When you create shape on stage and right click and chose create object you can chose Registration point for the object
you chose what corner will be used as center of coordinates for this object. Now onice you create object is there way to change this registration point e.g. i created it in center now i want to to be in upper left corner?

View 4 RepliesI'm making a 3D room builder. The user places Sprites around the 2D stage and my script converts those Sprites to Papervision3D DisplayObject3D objects. I'm having problems with the 3D object positioning because Sprites have registration points at their top-left corner and 3D objects have registration points at their center. How can I make that conversion?ere's a scheme of how the 2 different coordinate systems work:
I've tried this code:
child3D.x = child2D.x;
child3D.z = child2D.y - child2D.y - child2D.y; // just to make it negative
[code]....
I start with a question: how could I change the registration point of a movie clip created or loaded at runtime? I want to move the registration point from top/left to center.
View 2 RepliesI have an object which is converted into a symbol. I double click on this object/symbol and it goes into its own seperate timeline. For my coding purposes I would like to know how to change the registration point of the symbol so it moves along or is addjustable on a symbols its own timeline so a can create animations on an objects timeline without screwing up my codeing because objects don't register when their moved away from the registration point the compiler still thinks that the registration point is where it was previously.

View 2 RepliesI am moving movieclips around my stage in relation to the users mouse location. All of my movieclips have the registration point placed in the default top left corner. As an object moves off the stage to the left it suddenly disappears when the registration point reaches the edge of the stage. I would like to see the whole object move off the screen instead of just disappearing when the left corner reaches the edge. I would move the registration point to the right side but I would like the movieclip to be able to move off all sides of the stage (top, bottom, left, right)
View 5 Replies1. Is there a way to scale up an object from its center even if its registeration point is at the top left? can that be done using TweenMax?2. can I apply the same tween on two objects at the same time? basically what I want to do is load up an image to the stage, and then tween its scale from 0 to the original size along with another movie clip behind it that would form some sort of a border for the image. and I want to scale them up from the center.
View 5 RepliesI want to rotate the movieclip about a point that is not on the registration point.
The current registration point is at the top left and I want to rotate it about the coordinates: _y = -178, _x = -24.5
Is there any way to change the registration of a video object (so that you can apply a tween effect)?
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip on my stage with various elements in it. When I edit this movie clip all the coordinates for the various elements have really random values because the registration point is not set to the top left corner of the symbol but I can't find any way to change the registration point - nothing I've found online so far works.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a needle gauge type preloader, and I've created the needle and made it a MC and set the registration point to bottom middle, but it still rotates on a centered axis. This is the tutorial I'm following: [URL]
View 3 RepliesI coded an entire file based on the top left registration point of my movie clip. I want it rotate it to point at the cursor, but since the registration point isn't in the middle.. its not a perfect rotation around the center of the mc. Is there anyway to rotate it around the center of the movie clip without changing the registration point?
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, aimBall, false, 0, true);
function aimBall(event:Event):void {
ball_mc.rotation = getAngle(ball_mc.x, ball_mc.y, mouseX, mouseY) -90;
trace(ball_mc.rotation);
} function getAngle(x1:Number, y1:Number, x2:Number, y2:Number):Number {
var radians:Number = Math.atan2(y1-y2, x1-x2);
return rad2deg(radians);
} function rad2deg(rad:Number):Number {
return rad * (180/Math.PI);
}
I've checked this behaviour: If I define a sprite (by programming) as:
var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
square.graphics.beginFill(16750899, 1);
square.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, width, height);
square.graphics.endFill();
return square;
When I check the position of the sprite ( square.x, square.y), they reference the TOP-LEFT CORNER.
If I create a symbol by Flash CS4 and export to Actionscript (I also associate one class which extends Sprite for doing "new()" in my code):
var square: MyClassExtendsSprite = new MyClassExtendsSprite();
When I check the position of the sprite (x, y), they reference the CENTRE of the sprite!
Do you usually set the registration point in the upper-left corner ?I usually have always troubles with the registration point in the center.. or is maybe useful in any situation ?

I've got a scrolling image gallery which I have a zoom button that lets the user zoom in on the images... If they click on the stage, the scrolling stops. Now, if they try to zoom in, the image scales from the left side, since the images registration points are on the left side of the movie clip they're loaded into. This causes the images to shift right, but I want it to appear as if its a straight on zoom...

I'm trying to see if there's a way to change the registration point of a MovieClip that's importing an image dynamically?Here is my code where I add an image to an "overlayHolder":
overlayBitmap = _loader.getBitmap( _data.id + "-overlay_image" );
overlayHolder.addChild(overlayBitmap);
overlayHolder.x = _data.overlay_left;
overlayHolder.y = _data.overlay_top;
What I need to do is rotate this image later on, upon interaction from someone, but need it to rotate with a center-registration.I've seen a bunch of tutorials/forums talk about centering a registration point when you're drawing a Sprite on the stage, but not when you're importing an image.
I need to make a MovieClip rotate around it's center point to the left or right depending on mouse drag. I got some basic semblance of what i want going, but it's pretty hackish. Normally i calculate the angle and such but i only really need to use the distance the mouse travels and apply it to the movieclip and for flavor add some nice easing when you let go.
public function Main()

var wereld:MainScreen = new MainScreen();

How can i change registration point of uiloader?
because that loader loads images which needs to be zoomed for productional purposes, but it does not zoom the center, it zooms through to reg point.
