Is there any way that i can smooth out images that zoom in/out with normal classic tween. they are so jittery it looks terrible. I even have a little bit of easing and frames per second set to 30.
View 5 RepliesI look at professional animations and notice the camera-like effects they manage to put into these animations. I'm wondering how I can do the same without having to just enlarge or reduce a movieclip across the stage. Is there any way to add a camera view on your animations or do you just have to bear with Flash's basic necessities?

View 0 RepliesJust joined this forum and getting back into flash after a few years away, im currently using AS2 and was wandering if there was a way to create a zooming effect which zooms on the z axis in AS2the zoom starts way off in the distance and then zooms all the way off the screen.
View 3 RepliesI have a container (CONTAINER_MC), containing one or more containers(CONTAINER_01_MC) that is rotated arbitrary. Inside these containers I have one or more MC's (MC_01, MC02...)
I want to achieve the effect of zooming and centering in on MC_01, MC_02 ect. I'm scaling and rotating CONTAINER_MC to get this effect, I figured out how to calulate the rotation and scale. But I am having difficulties calculating the X and Y position of CONTAINER_MC.
var scale:Number = stage.stageHeight/MC_01.height;
var rotation:Number =CONTAINER_01_MC.parent.rotation*-1;
But I cant figure how to calculate the new X and Y for CONTAINER_MC the ensures that MC_01 is centered on stage.
how to zoom the image displayed with the help of an item renderer.If i apply the Zoom effect on rollover ,the particular cell zooms the image with the scroll bars. Is their any other way of doing this without showing the scrollbars.
View 1 RepliesI have a serie of movie clip parts from a menu. Each movie clip has an elastic effect on rollover with the following code. it is ok but not smooth enough I wonder how I could smooth the effect. Is there a function for this ?
monClip.onRollOver = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._xscale >= 150) {
[Code].....

View 2 RepliesI have made a couple of 'advanced rollovers' if you will, yet one thing is annoying me about them! When you roll over the button it looks great, yet as soon as your mouse goes off the hit area, it just suddenly shoots straight back to frame 1 of the movieclip , is there any way to animate a scene once the mouse has gone off the button, so it looks smooth when rolling over and when rolling off?
View 1 Repliesi'm trying to create a expanding Form with a smooth transition effect, here the code:
<s:TitleWindow xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"[code].....
But the problem with this is that even with creationPolicy set to all not all items seem to get initialized. This causeses the tweener animation to lag when clicking the "register" button the first time. after the first click, the animation is smooth.
Basically I want to know if there is a way to go from a zoomed in version of something, and then seeing the whole image in another frame. (By pressing a button)
Let's say there's a tree, I would bascially like (upon pressing a button which I can do) to zoom out and see the whole scenery. Is there a way I can do this without actually changing the size of the image?
I'd like to have my viewers mouse over any of the MovieClips on the scene and using the keyup / keydown have only that MC scale up or down. The scaling should only effect the moused over MC.Here is what I'm using for the scaling on one MC now...
var Listener:Object;Listener = new Object();Listener.onKeyDown = function(){ if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) { container._xscale = container._xscale + 10; container._yscale = container._yscale + 10; } if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) { container._xscale = container._xscale - 10; container._yscale = container._yscale - 10; } };Key.addListener(Listener);
I am quite new to Flash and I want to make the following. I want to have a video (avi, mpg or something else) playing. But you should see only a part of the movie (a smaller rectangular "window"). Through this window I want to be able to zoom in on the movie, and move it, so you can see different parts of the movie.
Is such a thing possible in flash? If so, can you give me some tips on how to start?
Since at least cs3, Illustrator, InDesign & Photoshop has all had the Alt + mouse wheel zoom function. I have wondered when this would become available in flash. I just installed my cs5 design premium and immediately noticed that the zooming function has been further improved in the other programs but still nothing has happened in flash.
Am I missing some way to enable this zoom function or is there some third party plugin that can help me? It is annoying and time consuming to have to press z then click around to get the right zoom level and then click whatever tool I was using before instead of just pressing alt and scrolling a bit.
Why does the paintbrush tool change sizes when zooming in and out? It's so annoying. Is there a way to fix this? Btw I use version CS4. Does it happen to all the other tools? I tried them it seems not but I can't tell unless it's a big difference in brush size like the paintbrush tool.
View 4 RepliesI have a movieclip that I want to be resized when a button is clicked. I want the animation to be smooth as if it had weight though. I read the tutorial on this but I need something slightly different, I would rather it where I can just refer to a function that is set in another movieclip. That way I could easily refer to it again and just set the height, width, and if possible, x, and y.
And my second question, is how to keep the border of my movieclip that is going to be resized the same thickness. I want the inside to be resized but the sides to stay the same width but move to stay on the edge.
I'm creating this simple strip crawl of logos (1920x95). It's a about 40 logos in one strip that I imported. I created a tween that scrolls the logos right to left lasting about 1 1/2 minutes @ 24fps. When I export the SWF file the scroll is not smooth and there is all types of small jerky movements.
View 2 RepliesI have a main Flash movie that preloads three external SWF's just perfectly.Everything is great...except the 1st movie is not smooth and really slow, the 2nd movie is a little better, and the third movie is the best.It's a rather simple Flash portfolio...I'm thinking it could be a stacking issue-but I've approached it from so many different ways instead of wasting my time shooting at thin air, I thought I'd give this forum a shot.How can I make these three movies play smoothly?I've attached the main movies FLA just to assist.
View 2 RepliesI have an issue with my Cintiq not drawing smoothly in Flash. I need to sketch incredibly fast and loose. Flash used to work just fine but now it suddenly began drawing really crummy. I posted some examples of flash as well as Photoshop, Sketchbook Pro, and ToonBoom Animate Pro which is another vector graphics tool. I thought the vector graphics may be the issue but that app seems to handle the drawing excellently (now if only it did the other things Flash can do). Here's some examples of how they're looking. It may be hard to tell in these already loose sketches but the performance drop is really a big difference in responsiveness between Flash vs the other apps here:[code]Does anyone know why my cintiq is causing flash to draw so poorly? Occasionally photoshop will also do the same 'crumbly edges' thing?
View 16 RepliesAs 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.
[URL] I have the flash video at 12fps,I have all the annimation as a motion tweens, but it appears jerkey, why is that, do I need to speed up the fps?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to make the background gradient change colors. I put my first gradient in one keyframe, then created another keyframe at the end with a different gradient, but when I converted it to symbol then added the tween, the transition jumps from one color to another, it is not gradual transition I wanted, it just jumps

View 2 RepliesI just jumped from cs3 to cs5 and i'm curious about some behaviors of motion editor. I made a motion tween with some keyframes on x and y. I open the motion editor and try to convert those keys on x and y channels to Smooth points. Motion editor shows now nice curves on x & y but nothing changes on stage. The motion of my movie clip is not changed in anyway. Its like those keys are still Corner points. No smooth motion. Of course I can change the motion path straight from the stage or create a custom ease to smooth motion.
