Slow Down Single Cell Animation?

Oct 13, 2009

I'm new to flash and I'm working on an animation project for my class.  I decided to do half of it as single cell animation and half of it using tweens and whatnot.  The parts that are single celled are moving WAY to fast and are throwing off the flow with my tweens. It's a requirement of the project to have atleast 20 fps and I don't have enough time to dedicate to drawing tons of more cells.  For example, I have one animation made up of 40 frames and it needs to be stretched to about 100 frames. I've tried copying all of the cells into a movie clip and attaching a stop(); method at the final frame in the movie clip, then importing that into my movie and stretching it to the length i need, but it just runs at the normal animation rate and then stops until the timeline gets to where it's time for the next event or scene to take place. It sort of looks like i need to find a way to control the fps of my movie clip independently of the entire movie, but how would i go about that?

Get Content Of A Single Cell From A DataGrid In Flex 3?

Mar 19, 2010

I want to select information in a single cell from my DataGrid in Flex 3.

Specifically, I'm displaying three phone numbers per line and the user needs to be able to select one of those numbers, from any row, but not the whole row.

While similar to this, I am displaying the DataGrid to the user. The answer for that question was to manipulate the dataProvider, how can I know what cell I've selected in order to do that?

Mar 11, 2010

I'm using CF to retrieve values from a database that are then being stored in a datagrid in Flex. I then want to selectively take the value from one cell of the datagrid and store it as a string variable. I've searched around, but I haven't been able to come about a solution. The users will not be interacting at all with the datagrid as it will be hidden to them.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Update A Single Cell In A Flash Data Grid Component?

Mar 22, 2012

I've been working with the flash data grid component, and I want to update just one cell in the data grid without updating the entire dataset. I haven't found anyway to do this and the object inheritance makes it really difficult to track down properties of specific child elements. Here's a snippet i use to get data from a specific data cell:

var cellData:String = _currentPlaylistDataGrid.columns[0].itemToLabel(_currentPlaylistDataGrid.getItemAt(_c urrentSlideID));

What's the best way to do this? It's NOT on a click event or interactive event.

Flash Animation Too Slow

Feb 12, 2009

I have Flash CS3 installed (windows) I have two images, I shape tween from one to the other.

The .fla file is 15MB in size, and the .swf is 800kb,

My problem is that, even though I've set the animation to run at 30fps, I barley manage more than 1.4fps a second, it should take 5seconds to complete, yet its taking 140seconds.

I have a 2GHZ dual core PC, with 2GB RAM,

I want it to be a smooth transition.

Slow Animation On Iphone

Jun 6, 2011

I am having a issue with CS5 flash iphone app displaying slow laggy animations when I use a background image.  I have pinpointed this issue by making a simple iphone application with only a vertically accelerating ball and one background image.  If I use the background image the ball will animate slow and laggy, without the image it performs fine.

Also...while I have your attention, does anyone know why only CS5 will allow me to compile IPA files that will run on my 1G ipod touch with ios 3.1.3. I would like to use CS5.5, but the IPA from that version will not run on my device.

SLOW Windows Animation When Editing Symbols?

Jun 11, 2009

when i double click a symbol or button to edit it, I get this strange windows-like animation of a chequered rectangle that comes out from where I double click and gets bigger and bigger. Once its as big as the screen I can then edit the symbol.Its like its something to do with vista. If I bring up other applications whilst its doing it the rectangle is always on top and visible over everything. It's like some sort of windows "zoom" animation but for some reason its doesnt work quickly and is painfully slow... 10 seconds or so and when i come out of symbol editing it does the same in reverse.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Smooth, Slow Dynamic Text Animation?

Dec 22, 2009

I have dynamic text that needs to animate slowly across the screen but right now it jerks in 1 pixel increments as compared to the vector graphics accompanying it.

I've increased the frame rate, converted it to a bitmap, applied GridFitType, etc., none of which (or my implementation) seemed to work.

Is there a way to achieve smooth animation with dynamic text at slow animation speeds?

Professional :: Animation Optimization For Mobile (Running In Slow Motion In The Beginning)

Mar 29, 2012

I have a project for mobile where some of my animations scenes look as though they are winding up or playing in slow motion (from the start). They start out slow for about three seconds, as if they are winding up or in slow motion, and then they run at a normal pace. It only happens on specific animations and is consistent on different devices. Also, once I come back to the scene (revisit), the animations run normally from start to finish.

I have had some success in speeding up some animation by doing the following: In some scenes, the following would occurr: 1) a character was walking 2) the character grew in size though tweening 3) the background was animated as well ect. In other words, there were several things happening in the animation. In this example, I made it less complex by keeping the character the same size and making the background static. This helped alot. However, for the aforemation animations, I have tried everything (I am aware of) and nothing has helped. I'm not sure what to do next.

Professional :: Exporting Animation - Single Non Animated Image Except For .swf?

Jun 14, 2011

I have created a character for animation in illustrator and saved each symbol nessesary as a movie clip.After finally coming up with a decent animation everything seemed fine and exporting as a .swf looked great. When trying to export as a .gif however I get a singal non animated image. I've been looking for a simple answer to this problem such as Radtool converting a .swf or.avi to a gif and it give me a file not found error. I've attempted turning all of my symbols into graphics and I get a single image when I try to view it in flash  (ctrl + enter). I've tried saving it as a bitmap and batching in photoshop with more error. I've tried going into flashes publish setting and saving an animated gif. Every export format I choose seems to  give me a single non animated image except for .swf.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Single Background Animation Running Through All Scenes?

Feb 21, 2007

I currently have 6 scenes in my current movie. It's going to be an online portfolio and each page is a section of the portfolio. However, I have an animated background (400 frames long) that I want to be played throughout the entire site. Of course, when I try and do this the animation resets every time the scene changes. The best I could do so far is to have it running on every page this way but like i said, it resets every time the scene changes. Is it possible to set this background to run smoothly through the portfolio without resetting?
