CS3 used to have this nice autorotate function where you could make a MovieClip spin - great for vehicle wheels and the like. Has this been deprecated in CS4? Can't seem to find it...
View 3 RepliesI have recently followed a tutorial to make a movieclip in flash that makes buttons spin around a point depending on the mouse position. I have made my own version off this and would like to use it in a full flash website that i am making at the moment.
The only problem that i am having is with aligning this clip and as it is made up of script i cant physicly drag it to were i want it. I understand how to alighn this with x/y positioning but when i preview the flash in a web browser it is positioned correctly but then when i 'full screen' the browser this clip jumps about 4 inches down the page.
I am making a splash screen for a program and I have a picture in my head of a spinning sphere with pictures on it.I've already made my sphere and mapped my design onto the sphere in illustrator, although it is not as clear as I wanted.How do i get the sphere into flash and animate it to spin continuously?

Now what i need to know is how can i make a sentence for example "welcome to blah blah blah blah" go around in a circle i already try using Dynamic text and wrap the word but only thing i get is the whole sentence just going around with out going around following each other.

how to make a wheel spin 360 degrees in a seamless motion?
my purpose is to give realism to a car wheel which will spin in a seamless motion; I�ve tried to to it with tweening but the wheel mc jerks at every rotation; a couple of years ago I saw a very simple code which did exactly this , to make a wheel spin around smoothly;
I have this script that creates a Tiltviewer effect and it works perfectly as long as you're on the page. However, if you switch focus to another browser window or tab, it begins to spin wildly and even takes a while to recover when the user comes back to the page.
ActionScript Code:
/* ---------- PV3D ---------- */
import org.papervision3d.events.InteractiveScene3DEvent;
import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapMaterial;

I have a replay button that is already working great, but I want the arrow part of the button to spin in the 'Over' state. What I tried was creating a looped frame. I went inside the button itself, (button composed of an arrow symbol and text). I then went to the 'Over' state and went to edit the arrow symbol itself.when I drag the playheader in there, it seems to loop just fine, but when I export it it's not working.
View 9 RepliesI'd like to import 3D objects into Flash, so that people can interactively click + drag to spin them. Example: [URL]

Are there ways to accomplish this, other than buying "freespin 3d"?
trying to make things for my classroom. Dawsonk was kind enough to help me out with it months ago, but I had a computer crash at school and lost it. Unfortunately the school system doesnt try to recover stuff, they just wipe it.What I want is basically a gaming wheel (like at a carnival, the kind you spin).I want to be able to have a .jpg or something that I can modify (if I change the lesson later, or for different outcomes, just replace the .jpg with a same sized wheel).I just want to hit a button, make it spin, slow down, and stop. Maybe a second graphic of just a pointer at the top that overlaps it so you know where it lands. It doesn't even have to stop exactly on one 'category' or 'slot'. It just needs to slow down and stop randomly.

View 6 RepliesI have a Flash animation of the Yin Yang symbol that is rotating clockwise in a circle. The image is rotating a bit fast for my project. Could someone tell me how to go about slowing down the animation so that it does not spin so fast? I am currently using CS3.
View 1 RepliesIm working on a small project and it involves a guy which you move with the arrow keys. The arrow keys add to his x, y velocities and his position is updated accordingly. How can i get this man to grab onto an object and spin around it (like when you grab pole and letting your momentum swing you around) . I can make him grab the object but I dont know how to modify his x,y speeds to simulate the arc.
View 4 RepliesHow do I make an external movieclip preloader? Anyone know of a good tutorial because I have been trying for the past 12 hours to get a preloader to work(no not 12 hours straight lol). My file is 2.6 mb so I really need the preloader. Or if there are any free programs that make preloaders that would be good too. Or any components that have a tutorial with them(also needs to be free).
View 6 RepliesThe scenario is as follows:
I have a movieClip on the stage called "home_btn" and another called "home".
When moving over the home_btn movieClip I want the timeline inside of home to play. I used the slice command to get rid of the _btn which works fine, which is proven by the trace command, but it doesn't seem to be able to enter the timeline of home.
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onOver);
function onOver(event:MouseEvent)
{
var selectedButton:Object;

I am having one of those 'self doubt sanity' moments. Entering melt down here ! I want to make a movieclip from a graphic map background, and some existing movieClips that reside in another .fla
In this other .fla file the movieclips are in the wrong layer so by starting over I wish to tidy things up.
How do I create a movie clip from such ?
Then I start thinking, how does one create a movie clip, then bring it into another file ?
I even did a test that went:-
1) create new AS3 file
2) draw a box
3) select box and hit F8 Convert to symbol, select movieclip and name it box_movieclip
4) d/click box and made a classic tween and had box moving across stage.
5) save as and named file MovieClip_Boxtest.fla
6) open new file AS3 and import to library the BoxTween.fla and got a message saying One or more files not imported as problems reading them.
So having done the above stages 1 to 5 which made a movieclip, how do I get that into another fla file ?
On the stage I have a movieclip with an animation inside it, at the moment I've given to its background the same color of the stage to simulate a transparence.Now I've added some decorations to the bottom left corner of the stage and this movieclip lays a bit over the decoration showing that in truth the movieclip is not transparent because it covers part of the decoration.Is there a way to make the movieclip background really transparent?I've checked where I apply colors to elements, but there is not a "transparent" option, or at least I havent seen it.
View 5 RepliesI am trying to make an index page with buttons for a photography site.the entire page is built in flash so far. I have created a drop down menu that is a Movieclip with 5 buttons.I can not seem to assign an external web page to each buttons that are under the movie clip drop down menu. Is this a possible? The Movie clip is run by mouse-over the word "studio Gallery" button. This drops down the 5 gallerbuttons (Portrait, children, wedding, Artistic Babies, etc...). In Flash 8 Pro I know I can assign an external web page named children on the main page but how do I assign these to the buttons in the drop down once the movieclip is made. Is this where I need to use folders with extra layers in the folder to make it work?
View 6 RepliesI would like to take a straight line/rectangle that is already created on stage and tween it with as3 so that when mouse is down, i can drag and bend it into an ark shape, and when i release the shape snaps back to its originally form?
View 2 RepliesInside movieClip container, there are colored buttons on layer1 and on layer2 there is movieClip square which covers the buttons. I want to use the color efffects and blending options of movieClip square to make layer 1 alpha.

View 1 RepliesWanting to spin a product 360 degrees.
View 1 RepliesIs there any flash tutorial explaining how to do a product 360 spin with callouts (I already have the photos).
View 0 RepliesI'm having a bit of a problem with this rotating object. It loops and never stops. I searched and found similar problems, but if I'm not mistaken most loops where done with tweens, unlike this one.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
i = getProperty(this,_rotation);
setProperty(this,_rotation,i + 7);
}
I basically want the planet to spin once, and then stop.
i seen this over at 24 -7 and would like to use this effect on a site of mine, [URL].. does anyone know how to do the rotation spin that this site does i have looked around but think i am looking for the wrong thing lol.

Any resources available out there how to put such a thing together.
I see them all over the web, but have never implemented a 360 with callouts.
I have a star as MC on the preloader, and I�d like to the it spin as faster as the preloader grows...
