Jan 5, 2012I'm trying to drag & rotate a planet so it spins around with the mouse -instance name: PlayerThe code works really well but it doesn't seem to rotate around the centre, instead it rotates from the top left corner.I'm quite a noob at as3 so I'm not quite sure where I've gone wrong with my code to be able to fix this. Do I need to specify the dimensions of the stage or the planet? I have altered the Stage from the the default 550 x 400 (if this could be the problem).

ActionScript 3.0 ::movieclip In Edit Mode - Objects Won't Centre ?
Jun 5, 2011I'm trying to get my new character system working with my fairly simple physics system. I have code at the bottom of the page which demonstrates my collision function. The most important line, which I've bolded, is:
Code:
currentPlayer.y = hitBlock.y - ((hitBlock.height * 0.5) + (avatar.height * 0.5)) ;
I wrote this myself, all logic dictates that it should work. We start with the position of the centre of the block. We add half of it's height, to reach the top surface of the block. And then we add half the avatar's height, which should give the exact point to put him at so that his feet touch the top of the block. This code should be able to account for any arbitrary heights of block or avatar. But it's not working, my avatar is stuck just a little bit inside the block.As far as I'm aware, my math is perfect. So the only source of the problem I can think of is in the objects themselves. I'm not fully sure what the registration point is - logic would dictate that it's the recognised root point of the object, and when I tell an object to go to a coordinate, I would guess it's moved so that point rests exactly on the coords.I'm not entirely sure how to change it though.When I look at my movieclip in edit mode, it look like this.
The image has been downscaled so it's tricky to see the details, but I want to draw attention to the fact that there's three points of interest on it. Around the middle of the bounding box is a white circle,I think that's the registration point. A bit above that, on the figure's upper torso, is a crosshair. And to the topleft of the bounding box, just outside of it, is a second crosshair.What's also interesting is that when I deselect the movieclip, the white circle and the second crosshair (outside the BB) vanish. But the one on his chest stays put.If I move the movieclip, all three of the above things go with it. I can select the circle and drag it around, but not the crosshairs.my collision code:
Code:
//if main hits a block, then stop jumping
//this loop will check a hit test with any block
for(var i:int = 0;i < world.blockHolder.numChildren; i++)[code]............
ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Class Registration - Rotating At 0 - 0 Axis And Not At The Centre Of The MovieClip
Apr 3, 2009I posted a question regarding how to make a ladybug move around the screen and I managed to make a class that loaded a ladybug png then using a timer moves the bug around the screen...
but I have a huge problem...this has been bugging me all day and cannot find a solution...
The ladybug moves around the screen but rotates towards the moving direction before moving. The problem is that the ladybug is rotating at 0,0 axis and not at the centre of the movieClip. Is there a way to offset the registration point so that the ladybug rotates centred?

Actionscript 3 :: Copy Movieclip Display Properties As A Vector Into Another Movieclip
May 15, 2011For my project I need to copy the graphics of a Movieclip with all of its children without copying anything else into a second Movieclip. I cannot use the Bitmap classes because I need the graphics to be displayed as a vector and I cannot use a method that simply copies the clip by calling the instructor ie:

Mar 9, 2005I have seen a couple of flash movies of late that have a nifty element to them, when the user resizes his window the movie slides to the centre or relative position, rather than snapping.THIS SITE is one example of the effect I mean When you resize your window the text moves gradually to a relative position.How is this done? is it via action scripting or through the html/java?It is a nice little touch, I like it. Do you think if you can dictate the position of certain elements you can dictate the size of elements according to window size?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Centre Of Map Remains Centered During Map Scale?
Oct 28, 2011I've created an mc which functions as my map and controls to go with that which allow the map to be moved around and key points navigated to and zoomed in on at varying zoom levels.I'm using scaleX and scaleY to scale the map mc and a list of x and y positions to correctly position the map for each key point. The map mc starts at 1:1 scale ratio with the screen and it's registration point is at 0,0.When I want to go to a certain area I perform this calculation (offsetX and offsetY are the center of the screen and posX and posY are predined offsets on the map):[code]
I now need to implement a zoom in / out function and this is what I'm struggling with. The zoom should use the center of the screen as the reg point for the scale, so I've been trying something along the lines of the following to get the correct x and y position to set after the scale:[code]I know this is wrong but I've shown this to give you an idea of my train of thought, I need to work out what the new x and y will be to ensure that the area that is being zoomed in on, stays in the center of the screen.So in my mind this gets the distance from the current position of the map relative to the center point of the screen (offsetX, offsetY) then scales that distance by the new scale.
