I want to make a simple animation with some photos. But I'd like to create this in a circle shaped workspace (stage), so when I export the movie as a .swf it will be shown as a round document, instead of the basic rectangle.
View 1 Replieshow it is possible to create an input box for the user to type their text and make the text appear wrap around a circle dynamically and the radius of the circle can also be changed dynamically?
View 1 RepliesI am on a MAC with two (2) user profiles.
When I launch Flash builder, I am getting a "workspace in user" message, and Flash Builder keeps prompting me to choose a workspace and it's pointing to the other user's profile.
I keep pointing it to my workspace under "my documents" and I check the following box:
Use this as the default and do not ask again.
However, every time I open up Flash builder, it's asking me again? Is there any way to stop this? Like, is there some file I have to delete or something?
I have a HTML box and load a local html file from the project. In this HTML file I use jquery and I want to load an image from my user directory. I see the image from my user directory but jquery doesn't works. I get this error:

But if I load an image from the app workspace, everything works fine (I see the image and Jquery works). Is this a policy problem? The error says that is a "null object reference" problem, but this can't be true...
I have a simple three ring animation where the three rings fade in and out.On the stage the rings are a perfect circle, in the publish preview they look fine, but once I publish the SWF, all of the sudden the rings are not perfectly round anymore.
They are almost perfect but right at the top and bottom there is just a small portion which has sort of "flattened out"...
I bought a Flash video tutorial online for Animating and the FIRST step is to create a circle with the circle tool, and the guy does it online, and it fills itself in. I repeat his actions exactly and I cannot get the same result at all. I just get a circle.

View 2 RepliesI have seen many tutorials where there is a panel at the bottom with "properties", "filters" and "parameters". But I don't have that panel.

View 2 RepliesIs it possible to arrange panels inside the Flash workspace, to have one panel at the top, wide 100% (the timeline panel). Then below it, have 2 columns: main window panel on the left and properties on the right.
From what I experienced, it is not posible with docking. Either you must have all 3 panels 100% wide, or you must have 2 columns from top to bottom, and within each of those 2 columns, arrange as you wish.
I have a classroom with 20 workstations, 5 or 6, of theses computers when using flash only shows a view of the stage without the workspace. when when reduce down to a view of 50% it places the stage in the upper right hand corner and never allows the normal view of the stage and workspace.
View 9 Replieshow to make a dynamic unfilled and filled circle. that will take input from a slider to dertermine how much of the circle is drawn. I wanted to use this for a preloader. Unlike the author I would like to use it inside of a document class. I am getting 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method createEmptyMovieClip through a reference with static type document. and 1120: Access of undefined property circ1. The second is caused from the first. How would I get this to work in my document class?

View 3 Repliesim following some suggestions to cut my flash website into a few sections to make preloading a bit easier.
so all i want is to make a small round ring rotate as long as the file is loading. so i looked and followed a lot tutorials but all the preloaders tutorials are much more compliceted then i need. they all have persentige sowing, and a bar that is filling according to how much the file has loaded, and colors changing etc. so i tried to take from the tutorials wat i need for my simple preloader to work but i get stuck.i built the animation of the rotating ring, but i get stuck with the actions i need to make the animation work as long as the file is working. i called my ring animation "circularloader". here is a image of the page with the ring:
I'm developing a game atm, and I need some help on the mathematics/coding of colliding circles (and their change in x/y speed). What i need to know is how to calculate the direction and speed a circle has after colliding with a static (non-moving) circle. I know how to detect a collision between the two, but I'm not sure about the maths I need to give the circle the right speed and direction after the collision
If i do know how far away the two circle-points (in the middle of each) are to each other (in both x and y coords) would it be easy for me to find the new speed and direction of the large circle in the example above? I know that I somehow should use the angles to pretend the circle hits a flat "wall" (as it only hits one point), and then calculate the new speed/direction. My only problem is that I'm not sure how to decide the angle of this flat "wall" and how x and y speeds should change when colliding with a wall that is angled. Does anyone here have any insight, links or tips on how I can du this?
i want to make one circle follow the mouse cursor, inside another circle. Similar to an eye looking at the cursor. Ive attached an example.

View 4 RepliesI created a .PNG in Photoshop (see attachment) -- now when I make this into a movieclip the bounding box covers the entire area so the hittest activates as soon as my helicopter flies into the bounding box.I looked at adobe's "help" they recommended this code (by the way, I'm using Flash 8):
my_mc.hitTest(x, y, shapeFlag )
my_mc.hitTest(target)
The way I interpreted the code was like this:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
heli.hitTest(248.1, -38, shapeFlag)
}
I read somewhere that you only use one of the two, and the shapeFlag one is the one to use.The above code I placed into the helicopter MC (named heli) - I set the x & y to where the PNG is.The PNG moves towards the helicopter, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference.I just want that if the helicopter runs into the ceiling or floor, the level resets.However my current actions activate as soon as it hits the bounding box.This is my code in the PNG:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this._x -= _root.levelSpeed;
}[code]....
