Professional :: Looped Playback: Alpha Tween End With Start?
Apr 20, 2010
Is it possible to alpha tween (or any tween) the end of an animation with the start?For example, here we have a simple animation that alpha tweens three images with looped playback (keyframes capitalized):
IMAGE X: xxxxxxxxxxxxX--->X
IMAGE Y: Y--->YyyyyyyyyY--->Y
IMAGE Z: Z--->Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
(loop)
Image X alpha tweens with Y, and Y alpha tweens with Z.Is it possible to alpha tween image Z with image X when the playback loops?

As I have a gradient background on my website where the swf is embedded, in order to avoid the white screen that appears initially while the swf is loading, I turned transparency on for the swf. In order to really get it transparent I found out that you not only have to enable it in on the html site, but also tick "Detect flash version"and chose "Transparent windowless" in the publish settings. I used the html document created when I published the swf and the transparency now works fine.
However, the films I have on my site are now playing back with a very "jerky" behaviour and not smooth at all. I tried compressing the film as much as possible, but it's still not working as before. The site in question is [URL] if you would like to see for yourself. I've tried it on both my laptop, which is even worse, and my fairly powerful dual core 64 bit stationary PC.

I have a banner (160x600) and want to have 2 images (one at a time) slide into place and then fade out (alpha=0). Image1 should slide in and then fade to alpha=0, whiling fading out, Image2 should begin to slide in and then fade out as Image1 begins to slide in... this all needs to loop.
So this is the code I have which slides in the image and fades it out but I need for the fade out to overlap the next image sliding in and loop it all.
Code:
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
function finishHandler(event:TweenEvent):void[code]........

I've got a problem with an if/else statement within a function which checks to see which 'drop area' one of ten items should to snap to.. the problem is I can only set the start location of each item to work on the first hitTest, otherwise after clicking another item or positioning any item in one of the drop areas, the drop area becomes it's start location due to startDrag() and stopDrag() been called again to move the object..
What I've tried to do here is to create a variable (which does trace the correct (currentTargetHome) movieclip reference, but as a string) but it doesn't work when I try to access it's attributes using [currentTargetHome]. The item exists within the movieclip "gamePage" and the rest of the function works !

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.

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

If I have this line of code:
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(contHolderMain, "alpha", None.easeNone, 0, 100, 100, true);
contHolderMain's alph value should move from 0 to 100 in 100 seconds, but it only take about 5.

I have a few words written in static text mode which I have made a graphic symbol. On the timeline I have used both motion tween and classic tween to create a aplha change from 0% to 100%.I made sure I have enoough space on my timeline (10 frames).The aplha tween works fine in preview mode however when I export the swf the aplha tween is no longer working? I have tried breaking the text,restarting flash,restarting my computer and similar suggestions from other blogs such as:
I was able to solve this by checking the box "Use runtime bitmap caching" under Blend in the properties panel for the MovieClip in question.I am currently using Flash CS5 on a imac.

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!

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.

I'm trying to get an instance of an FLV Playback that serves as a background to one of the sections of my Flash site to fade in once the section is entered, and fade back out again when it is exited. I've put it into an mc called 'vid container' and I applied some simple motion tweening to the container, to fade it in from 0 opacity to 100 and back down again. What I'm having trouble understanding is that, while the fadeout works absolutely fine, the fade in doesn't work at all.

Is it possible to listen for when a streaming mp3 actually begins to play?
e.g.
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.load(new URLRequest("my.mp3"));
snd.play();
When loading/streaming the mp3 file over wifi or 3G the playback might not begin immediately.
I need to trigger something when the audio actually starts.

I try to start a FLV (created with soundbooth cs5) at a certain point of time using ns.play('video', 33000) or even just ns.seek(33000);
The FLV is about 9 hours long.
How do I make this work ? And why is it not working?

I'm currently recording and storing a ByteArray of sound and then playing it back. But for some reason the playback starting position of the ByteArray is 163840, not 0 as I need it to be.
var soundBA:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
var sound:Sound = new Sound();
var ch:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var recordingsArray:Array = new Array();

I want to have an object start off with an alpha of 0 but then opacity in to 100% later on the timeline BUT I have to use Actionscript.

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 have an FLV video that I am attempting to loop. I have tried various methods, but all of them cause the video to have a slight "jump" when the movie is looped. I can't seem to get this to go away... See the following link: [URL] Here is what I have tried:
- Using JWPlayer
- Using Flash embed method
- Using an SWF to display the FLV Currently, in the link above, I have an SWF displaying the FLV. But, I am willing to try anything.

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....

I'm trying to find the most easiest way to fade in and out a movieclip in AS3. What I did is this:

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 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.
