Professional :: Rotating Top Image And Base To Remain Constant
Jun 8, 2011
I have 2 images, a base and a top. I want the top to rotate to face an object but the base to remain constant. I can get close but when the top rotates it is rotating around the corner of the rectangle it is placed inside of rather than the center. Here's the AS code for the object.....but the important elements are bolded.
public class Turret extends MovieClip{
private var _root:MovieClip;
[Embed(source='mortarbase.png')]
private var mortarBase:Class;
private var mbase:Bitmap = new mortarBase();
[Code] .....

Basically what I am trying to accomplish is to make a rotating menu comprised of circles that are spinning at a slow constant speed, and when the mouse goes over a circle(button) the menu stops rotating.

I am trying to create a "slideshow" in flash CS4 and I have set it to fade out one image is it fades in another (using alpha) for about 10 - 15 images.However, I want to add a "border" to my slideshow, that stays there throughout the entire process without it fading in and out along with the pictures.

I am trying to set a constant hue value for entire image with using ColorMatrix. My goal is to make entire image look with same color without loosing brightness of any area. I found a way to shift the hue values of an image by using ColorMatrix but i couldn't find any way to set same hue value for all pixels. I can do it with iterating every pixel of image but this approach is too slow. I am not sure if it is possible to do it with ColorMatrix and i am open to possible solutions other than ColorMatrix approach.I can do this with iterating pixels but not with ColorMatrix.I am trying to do this on Android but i believe the question is not directly related to the android since ColorMatrix approach is common on other platforms like Flash, C# etc.

Flash will be receiving a Base-64 encoded image (from a web service) and need to convert & display that image on the stage.
For conceptual purposes, I'm omitting the web-service aspect for now and just reading in a Base-64 string, generated from an online service.
Now that I have the data into Flash, how do I properly convert it to an image and display it.

I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?

I frequently create a lot of Library Symbols, export for Actionscript, letting Flash auto-generate the Class & extending a custom base-class in order to give them all custom functionality w/out having to create a Class for each, and/or without having to create a FactoryClass for instantiating X number of ClassObjects for each Symbol to be added to.It's really fast for prototyping, and with this workflow I've only hit a few obstacles. Those are:
1 - If the Symbol has children you cannot give the children instance-names, else the compiler gives an error related to automatically declaring stage instances. Two workarounds for this are that you can uncheck automatically declare stage instances, and do it manually in your base-class. or you can avoid using instance-names, and use getChildAt().
2 - If the Symbol is a MovieClip, the timeline doesn't inherit the base-classes imports. I don't have a workaround for this.are these limitations that could be addressed by Adobe's Flash team, or are they limitations that are unavoidable without altering the workflow?

I have a method that converts an int to a base60 string (using 0-9, a-z, and A-Z chars), but can't work out how to convert it back again. Here is my method for converting base10 to base60:
public static function toBase60(value:Number):String
{
var targetBase:uint = 60;
[Code]....
Works well. But how do I get the base60 string back into a base10 int?

Its been a while since i touched flash, which is funny considering i started my web/development career here.Anyway, in PHP there is a nice little function called base_convert (http:url....) which will take any number in any base (e.g. base 10, decimal) and convert it to any base (e.g. base 16, hex).So base_convert (15, 10, 16) will output F, which is convenient.I am wondering, as i cannot seem to find, if there is any similar function in actionscript. I am trying to convert from base 10 to 16 and then base 16 to 36.

I'm a CS4 developer, working in Flash, Dreamweaver, Premiere Pro, Photoshop, etc. I love Adobe products, but I am getting pretty weary of Flash Player updates coming every other day, sometimes every day. I work on several computers, both at work and at home, so the inconvenience of having to stop and go through the update process is multiplied. I know it's not usually a time-consuming process, but still, why so frequent?
It might not be so bad if not for all the other self-updating applications on my systems, not the least of which are the various Windows updates. It's just a little obnoxious.

Background info: I am using ActionScript 2.0 and Flash CS5I was working on a game and I used photoshop to save a little gif image. I imported it into flash, "broke it apart", turned it into a movie clip, and put this bit of code on it. It rotates the image when the mouse is moved around it.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// find x and y differences

So I been trying to import a psd file in flash to animate using diifferent layers from Photoshop. The problem is there's always artifacts around the image once it imports. I can't seem to get rid of themwhen I need clean shapes to animate. When I go back to reclean the image in photoshop, it looks crisp and I don't see obvious artifacts spots as I do in flash.
So how does one get clean image shapes from photoshop or detect artifacts before going through the trouble of importing?

I have Adobe Flash CS 5 and have been having difficulties trying to get a created tween to move at a constant speed. I have been converting a graphic I've created to a symbol and turning it into a motion tween, however I have only figured out how to move the tween on a frame by frame basis. Is there a way I can map out the full trajectory of the tween and then set it to travel along that pathway at a constant speed rather than moving from point to point within a certain number of frames? The desired result is a green circle that will bounce off the edges of the computer screen/window as it moves along at a constant speed in the appropriate direction. I am a flash novice and have been fiddling with the program for a few days

I have a disc I am rotating with the mouse with event.MOUSE_MOVE, like a jog wheel on some audio equipment. Everything almost works as expected, but the problem I am experiencing is that the disc always jumps to the point where the user clicks on the disc. I need the point on the disc that the user clicks on to remain under the mouse while the user spins the disc but I can't seem to come up with the correct math to make it happen. Here's the code i am using:
var xd = (_knob.x - _stageRef.stage.mouseX);
var yd = (_knob.y - _stageRef.stage.mouseY);
var radAngle = Math.atan2(yd, xd);
_knob.rotation = int(radAngle * 360/(Math.PI * 2) - 90);
_knob is a vector circle wrapped in a movieclip, with the circle centered on the movieclip's reg point. _stageRef represents the main stage.

I found this code online and he achieved a particular movement I want to use. Unfortunately, he's using numerical values instead of text. I followed all of his instructions, but I tried to replace the Vector with an array, and received an error. The error I have been receiving is "1199:type parameters with a non-parameterized type." That's because I added an array value instead of an vector, which this guy has done. What he has in his tutorial is correct with numerical values. Also he created a .as class called Item.as. Here is the AS code that is in the main timeline in a new layer called actions of my .fla file called rotate.fla:
//Save the center coordinates of the stage
var centerX:Number=stage.stageWidth/2;
var centerY:Number=stage.stageHeight/2;

how to rotate an image loaded using CameraRoll on an AIR for iOS app. This code below works fine (displayImage() is called when CameraRolls media event returns completed, and imageArea is the scrollPane where the image is shown.
function displayImage():void
{
var image:Bitmap = Bitmap(imageLoader.content);
[Code].....
With the second version the image seems to load because the scroll bars expand to the size of the image I choose, but I don't see anything on the stage.

I am designing an image gallery to show project screenshots for a portfolio. The horizontally scrolling screenshots technique is nice, but I want to do something similar in 3D space.
When the user clicks on the screenshot buttons for the selected project, I want the appropriate image to rotate around an imaginary center, increase in scale, and fade in to full opacity.
At the same time, the other images need to rotate around the same center point and scale down while the alpha decreases. The Screenshot furthest away from the viewer would have the smallest size and lowest alpha setting. Here's a couple things that might throw a wrench into the works. I need to keep all the images facing forward (instead of rotating as if they were on a cyllinder). Also, not all of my projects have the same number of screenshots. Can I do all this with actionscript?

how to rotate about the center an image loaded dynamically through AS? I've already asked this question, no one answered, I searched, searched some more, looked through my fairly voluminous collection of example flas and have come up with nothing.The following code does rotate a mc about its center, but only (apparently) if the mc contains something when the swf loads.
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
this.rotation_speed = 2;
function origin(){[code].....

I am in the midst of finishing up a design application where you can upload images and colors. I use the greensock transform manager. I am taking anything a user does and recording it so I can recreate what they made on larger scale behind the scenes (to be exported for printing purposes)
The problem I am running into is with rotation and moving x and y values. The transform manager does everything relative to a center point, but when i recreate the image object the registration point is at the top left. I have found how to rotate around the center of the object using the transform matrix, but I can't seem to move the x and y correctly because these values change when you rotate. I want to just move the image to the left or right relative to the center. How could I go about doing this.
Here is how I rotate.
private function rotateAroundCenter (ob:*, angleDegrees:Number, ptRotationPoint:Point) {
var m:Matrix=ob.transform.matrix;
m.tx -= ptRotationPoint.x;

It seems that after sometime working on this i have been able to come up with something which works the way i want it too, however there's this small problem. When i hover really fast over my buttons, it feels like flash just has a meltdown and stops running the function i have inside my button onRollOut.
So i got 5 frames with names "marine", "architectural", etc
In the first frame "marine" there is the following code (i've only included 1 of the buttons, but there another 4 with identical code where appropriate):
Code:
stop();
//enter current[] and goto[]
//current[marine][2] -> next[architectural][3]

I have the 3D rotating cube. Each panel of the cube is an image pulled in through actionscript. When you click on one of the panels, the cube straightens itself to show only the face you've clicked on. This is all great. However, I want to be able to click on that face again and have it link to a URL. This is where I get lost.
I feel like I'm ALMOST there - I've gotten it to work so that I can click the panel and it links to a URL, but right now every panel links to the same link. I haven't figured out how to make each panel link to its own separate URL. Here is the portion of code in my .FLA where I've added the linking action:
Code:
setupFaceAction = function (cube) {
for (var i = 0; i<cube.faceArray.length; i++) {
var face = cube.faceArray[i];
face.onPress = function() {
if (!cube.fading) {
[Code] .....
This is the line I added to make it link when you click the panel after it's facing forward:
Code:
cube.getURL("[URL]", "_self");}
So I assume I need to set up some sort of array so I can have multiple links that correlate with the appropriate image. To make it clearer, I've attached all of my files, so you can see all the code. You'll find actionscript in the .FLA and two external actionscript files. I think "cube.as" may be where I need to do the work.
