I am building a site with some features of google map. I want to pan, zoom in out a map with tweening effect.But when I zoom the map(Movie clip) it zooms out of the rectangular boundary. I also want to wrap the map(when scrolled). How can I do all these?
View 2 Repliesthere is a drag bar i created and i set its bound is a rectangle but the result doesn't fit with what I coded. All registration point is on upper-left corner there is a link for swf. the gray rectangle is set to the bound http:[url]....

drag_mc.thumb.buttonMode = true;
drag_mc.rec.alpha = 0.5;[code]..........
I would like to create a rectangle inside of a rectangle, starting approximately 15% inward from the right side of the other rectangle.
I know how to create rectangles with:
Code:
var newHotRect:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
newHotRect.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
newHotRect.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
addChild(newHotRect);
But how would I make another rectangle on top of that (the black one pictured) that is approximately 15% from the right?
I toyed around with .right, and .bottomright with no success. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? or even finding the x and y of the upper right or bottom right side of a rectangle?
I need to access the text inside the moieclip.. i am creating a emptymovieclip(name : _root.holder.contentMC) in this i am loading a swf file.. now i am creating another movieclip as _root.holder.contentMC.drawRect1.. the drawrect1 movieclip is used for drawing a rectangle in that swf file.. (for ex: in PDF file we will draw a rectangle to select the text)
problem:now i need to get the text availabgle inside the drwarect1 movieclip.. i dont know how to do this ..
code:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("holder",_root.getNextH ighestDepth());
_root.holder.createEmptyMovieClip("contentMC",_roo t.holder.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.holder.contentMC.loadMovie("67.swf");

Experimenting with adding a square shape inside a rectangle, in the following code, the compiler bounced the error: "Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type flash.display:Shape".

how to limit the region an object can be dragged in if the region is an irregular shape. I've tried with the 'set bounds' command and tried making a shape out of rectangles - but no joy.

I'm wondering how I can create a dynamic rectangle wich has some text in it, the text is dynamic so the rectangle has to adapt to the length of the text. How to approach this?
View 3 Repliesi need to check if a point is within a rotated rectangle. I have to do this mathematically, as none of the objects are on the stage so i can't use hitTestPoint. I know the position and rotation of the rectangle, and if necessary can get the four corners as points as well.
I kind of feel silly asking this, because i am pretty sure it's not a hard thing to do, i just can't work it out and so far any google searches just bring up hitTestPoint.
I need an algorithm to place a set of N rectangles inside a circle for radius R, so that they can scaled up to the biggest possible size that doesn't exceed the border of the circle.
View 1 RepliesFor those of you still with me, I am tasked with making some scrollable content in Flash. Load in a TextFile using LoadURL(), then display it. To get the text, we've written our own class TextFieldExtended, which is basically just there to give the textfile location to the constructor and then have the class do the various steps of getting it and loading it for you.So I needed to get a Scrollbar, which I got hereThe thing is, it works with Sprites.After trying to get it to accept TextFieldExtended, I bumped into a block, since the scrollbar relied heavily on a Sprite property that TextFieldExtended didn't have or could have.
So I tried adding the TextFieldExtended instance to a Sprite instance using addchild.A problem occurs here that I do not know how to handle. It seems that a Rectangle is drawn and the Text is drawn on that. I say this because the scrollbar moves the Rectangle up and down a bit, but the text doesn't scroll, just the Rectangle it is positioned in and the text then moves along with it.My question: can this be fixed, or is does this implementation of scrollbars need a lot of adaptations before this is possible?
I draw a rectangle i should see a little bold circle to indicate a perfect rectangle, I seemed to lost mine, can somebody please tell me how to get it back!
View 2 RepliesI am trying to convert a rectangle(actually multiple rectangles) to a curved rectangle. I think it should be pretty easy but I guess i am stupid. Basically I would have a start position and stop position (many of these), and they would be converted to curved rectangles and follow in a cicrle around.
View 0 Replieshow to respond when a rectangle hits another rectangle? I already know how to detect the collision, I just don't know how to respond to it. I'm just trying making a simple side-scrolling platform game where I have platforms I can walk on and bump against on all sides. I have searched everywhere and just can't find the tutorials I'm looking for.
View 6 RepliesI want to make a scope wich can zoom in on button click and go back to previous stage (zoom out) also by clicking a button.Now i made it work for zooming in (when i click my button it zooms) but when i want to zoom out everything i tried didn't work .Here is the code:
//button for zoom in
zoom.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,glassMove);
function glassMove(event:MouseEvent):void{[code]..............
i've made a button that zooms into a movie clip on a rollover, but it on moves it a certain amount each time you rollover the button. code below:
on (rollOver){
_root.Mypic._width += 5;
_root.Mypic._height += 5;
}
wot i want it to do is to continue zooming in for as long as the mouse is over the button, is there anyway i can change the code to zoom in at the same amount but do it continuously until the mouse is moved off the button. Also is there anyway that i can set it so that the zoom stops at a certain percentage, i.e. it only zooms in so much and then stops. What i mean is that the user can zoom in but the picture will only zoom in to say 200% of the original size.
I am working on flash application TELESCOPE or Camera. My goal is to move around the scene and zoom-in or zoom-out I found that if I move scene, I have to move registration point, because I always want to zoom in the centre of my ocular. So far application works fine only if I move, zoom-in and than before I move any further, zoom-out! But when I move, zoom-in (not fully), move again and zoom-in again, the second zooming doesn't appear on desirable registration point

Using flex / air 2.6 working on an Android device, I am using a canvas with a TransformGestureEvent for zoom in on a map. The listening of the efect is working ok, but I can´t seem to find the information on wether the user intended zoom in or zoom out (fingers getting closer or getting apart).I expected the intention of the gesture to be identifiable with the offsetX and offsetY properties of the event, as you will do on a swipe gesture event. But I always get 0 for both properties, no matter how I do the gesture in the device.How can I know if the fingers getting closer or getting apart in a gesture zoom event?
View 1 Repliesi had a flash file, and the image was dynamically loaded in a movieClip. when i double click the image it will zoom max. and another double click it will retain its best fit.

View 1 RepliesI'm developing a full screen zoom/pan UI. Everything is working great, except I can't get it to center on the correct point when zooming in.
You can view what I have here: [URL]
The numbers in the top-left corner are the navigation, and the white boxes represent the individual sections.
I have a large container movieclip that fills the entire page. Inside of that movieclip (site) I have all of my individual section movieclips (section1-section6). I'm also using a dynamic registration point class to dynamically set the registration point of the "site" movieclip to the current selected section, so that the zoom in/out is centered on that section.
When a user clicks on a navigation item, I first reduce the _xscale and _yscale of "site" to 80, when that is complete I move _x and _y to the position of the selected section's movieclip. When that is complete, I set the _xscale and _yscale back to 100. Right now, it is not zooming in centered, so I have a final step where I correct the _x and _y position after zooming back in.
If I don't zoom in/out I can successfully pan the movieclip and center on the correct section. I believe the problem is that I am moving the _x and _y to the position of the "site" movieclip as if it is at 100%, but since it is at 80% it is not moving to the correct position. I tried to fix this by giving the _x and _y coordinates as:
endX = endX / 100 * 80;
Which made it a little better, but still not centered. I have a feeling that there may be a fundamental flaw in my approach to this.
For some reason the forum won't let me attach my .zip, so I posted it online, as well: [URL]

View 3 RepliesI am a newbie in Flex development and using Flash Builder 4 with SDK 4. Now I get the error that "the prefix "fx" for element "fx:Style" is not bound" in line number 4.I searched for it, and it has sth. to do with namespaces, but I can not solve it by myelf.I have the file called "UserStory.mxml" in the directory "components" to place it via the main.mxml onto the screen:

I have a window in which I want to add/remove component and resize the window accordingly based on states. but for some reason it's ignoring the first resize.here's a sample code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
[code]....
when the state change to 'two', I want to add rect2 to display and increase the minWidth and size of the window. And when the state change to 'one', i want to remove rect2 from display and resize the window. This seems to work except the window doesn't shrink on the very first time the state change from "two" to "one" but works as expected afterwards. I'm not sure why it's ignoring first time I reduce the width. I also tried changing nativeWindow.bounds directly but that didn't work either.
Originally I just tried setting minWidth based on state (minWidth.one="450 minWidth.two="791") but that caused window to grow on left and shrink on right which caused the window to move left whenever the state changed. so then I just moved the window to right whenever state changed but that caused some flicker that I didn't want.
with my car, i am trying to make it so it can pass right through a MC, but just slow down. I type speed -= 5; but the car just bounces on the bound box of the other MC. How can i get it to not hit the bound box and only the actual object, AND make it pass through the object.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to develop a website in flash where the main content will be delivered as "pages" in a spiral bound notebook. In simplist terms, i want to have the image of a spiral bound notebook with "tabs" on the side that will "flip" to the selected page. When it flips, the page on top will "flip around" just like if you were holding a spiral bound notebook. that will reveal the requested "page" where each "page" contains a text box that gets its content from an external html file.
the part that i really need help with on is the page flipping. i have searched everywhere, but can only find "catalog" style flipping - which i dont want. i want only 1 page to be shown at a time with the "rest" laying underneath.
