I was wondering what the easiest way to resize banners that use Tweenlite or any tween class.
For instance I have a 300x250 and I need to resize it to 640x480. Is there a quicker way to resize it with out resizing and moving all the movie clips, then reediting the code for the x and y coordinates? Most of the assets are vector so resizing the whole .swf isn't an issue.
I have different web banners that sometimes only needs to have a different width and height (pixels) to fit elsewhere on my wehsite. I'm tired of doing the Flash web banner from scratch always... I have 2 questions:
1.) I have a web banner a SWF with 336 x 280 pix. How can I load this banner into a a new bannersize 468 x120 pix and keep all the objects in the swf proportional (not stretched). And keep the tweens, timeline functions and so on. I need the banner to always be identical like original. There could be other web banner sizes to fit.
2. ) How do I resize all the objects from 336 x 280 pix to 468x120 pix, or any new size without corrupting the objects, time and tween inside the FLA. -I am using Flash CS3.

I have a web banner a SWF with 995x150 pix. How can I load this banner into a a new bannersize 468 x120 pix and keep all the objects in the swf proportional (not stretched). And keep the tweens, timeline functions and so on. I need the banner to always be identical like original. There could be other web banner sizes to fit.
2. When I have the *FLA
How do I resize all the objects from 995x150 pix to 468x120 pix, or
any new size without corrupting the objects, time and tween inside the FLA.
I've a small problem with a banner. There's a part of text (made into a symbol) that has to jump out, so I made it 150% and the text around it moves away and then comes back. But the part that has to grow, does this in shocks. Does enyone now a way to prevend or mask this, so the client can be happy?
View 2 RepliesI wasn't quite sure where to put this. I created a banner for a friend in flash using actionscript 2 and the getURL command. When I go to embed it in HTML, the movie shows up and when you hover over it, it appears to link but when clicked it does not link. When I go directly to the .swf file it links, but not when I embed it. Is there anything special I have to add to my HTML to make the link work?

Its pretty simple what im trying to achieve.I have a MC on Stage, which im trying to tween to different X coordinates.I've set up four TweenLite.to sequences, however for some weird reason only one is being triggered - what am I doing wrong?
TweenLite.to(slider.mc_slider,1,{x:_returnXPos(95), ease:menuEasing});
TweenLite.to(slider.mc_slider,1,{delay: 1, x:_returnXPos(35), ease:menuEasing});
TweenLite.to(slider.mc_slider,1,{delay: 2, x:_returnXPos(50), ease:menuEasing});

why the buttons in the flash banner I created in Flash CS4 work when I preview it in either Flash or HTML in the Flash CS4 program, but when I go to load it into a html document in Dreamweaver CS4 and preview it in a firefox or IE browser, the banner comes up fine, but the buttons this time will not work. The buttons are displayed with there animation and sound, but the links will not work. I have tried scripts in AS2 and AS3.
View 3 RepliesI have one problem with my swf file which I created,I created the file useing the dimentions 1024x768, for pc I need these mentions the same swf file I want to use it in some other divise which will support only 480x272 dimentions.so, without creating the same file with these dimentions, is there any posible way to resize the swf file while publishing and the devise which I want to play the swf file it will support only swf format.
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a photo slide show that has the ability to go full screen. I have some elements which are always on the stage and some elements which I am adding from the library and/or creating in the code. When I issue the resize event, my stage movieclips are still on the stage and can be repositioned but the elements I created dynamically (most notably the thumbnails which I want to reposition) are gone.
View 1 RepliesI am new in flash so this question can sound stupid
I am about to create my first drawing in the adobe flash of some creature.
The problem is CAN i resize it when the flash is running (in runtime) by the end user.
Example: I want to increase the height of the creature.
So I have a movieclip that I am dynamically adding to the stage when a user clicks a particular button. There are multiple button that each result in the movieclip getting attached to the staged and scaled to a different particular size. Instead of attaching a new instance of the movieclip every time a button is clicked, I only want to attach a new movieclip the first time one of the buttons are clicked and then scale the dynamically added movie to the size specified in the functions for all of the subsequent button clicks. To be clear, I want to attach the movieclip on the first click and then scale it for all of the subsequent clicks.
Here is the code I am using for the buttons:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
videosBTN.onRelease= function() {

I have only one question but phrased it 3 ways:
1) Is it better to pre=render things say in photoshop or have flash render them?
2) if I have a field of stars that drift along; is it better to create that Star Field in photoshop as a single picture (say a .png) or to create a star in my library and add it to a movie clip and then have that drift along?
Lets say I have a blur effect on my stars and have an equivalent on the photoshop.
3) I have heard (and experienced) adding effects like blur takes a fair amount of CPU and memory so was wondering if I created the effect in photoshop and then imported the 'blurred' object into my flash if I could cut down on system resources?
I am working on image and i like to scale or resize the image by dragging and resize option.same working as "free transform tool" in flash (design part); i need same functionality in application.

As per the title, my flash swf file works fine when tested from the IDE, but when I publish it and open it through the browser, the stage doesn't seem to resize along with the window.I post below a bare-bones example. The "back" movie clip should resize, only it remains at the starting dimensions

I have a main movie here that loads in an external swf through a container mc. everything is aligned and positioned to where it should be, and they are also set to that value onresize. the problem is, when my swf is loaded in, it works fine and is in the right position, same when you resize it. BUT, if you resize the window before the swf is loaded, it misaligns, until you resize!!

I'm creating visual effects using TweenLite, which currently only manages the tweens for me, can I also attach a sprite at a specific time? (using "delay")
Basically I want to use TweenLite to attach/remove sprites apart from just tweening existing objects.
I'd like to remove objects via removeChild after Tweenlite has finished tweening. But it doesn't really work because my objects are still in the DisplayList. I can't figure out the problem so I would be very happy if someone could help me out with this problem.
Code:
//TweenLite.to(sndText, .5, {alpha:0, onComplete:removeChild, onCompleteParams:[sndText]});//does not really work; still in DisplayList
TweenLite.to(sndText, .5, {alpha:0});
TweenLite.to(musicText, .5, {alpha:0});

Does TweenLite or TweenMax support the onChange function?
I would like to re-code using TweenLite/TweenMax to get my textbox to numerically display the constantly changing x position of my tween.
I did have this code before:
I tried some variations with the following to no avail:
nextTween1.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_CHANGE, onChange);function onChange(evt:TweenEvent):void {mph_digital.mph_counter.text = int((dial_graphics_mph.x * .20528)*10)/10;}
also how do i define tweens as variables now with TweenLite / TweenMax?
