Actionscript 3 :: Scaling And Positioning With Tweenlite?
Dec 30, 2010
I have a movieclip with the mesurements of a rectangle. When the application is launched the movieclip is being scaled before placed on the stage as following.
menu.width = 400; menu.scaleY = menu.scaleX;
this is a smaller size than the original. the position of the movieclip at this moment is in the middle on the x and top of the stage on the y. when i click iti would like to do a tween with tweenlite wich scales it to its original(bigger) width and height and position it in the center of the stage on x and y.
the problem is when i position it with tweenlite, it gets done according to its old scale and not according to its new(bigger) scale so the movieclip isnt placed in the exact center of the stage.
I tried to compensate by adding a bigger number on the position so it gets positioned in the right way. But when i click it again i would like it to rescale to its beginning scale and position so it would be very messy to compensate again. Is there any easier way to do this kind of tween?
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?
I'm building some navigation that extends all the way from left to right across my SWF. When the window resizes, I'd like the nav buttons to get wider but not have the text on the buttons get wider.
The buttons themselves are rectangles with a vertical gradient and a stroke around the outside. I'm using 9-slice scaling so the stroke doesn't scale, but the middle (gradient) gets wider or narrower.What'd be great is to be able to select an object or layer and say "don't scale, even if the rest of this movie clip scales". Is there a way to do that, or will I have to do it via actionscript?
i have a diagonal movieclip that I am trying to scale along with the background video. The background video scales perfect, I am attaching the diagonal movieclip (br in the code as bottomright) with addChild Instead of scaling with the window, it seems to repeat such as the image is displaying. this is the main section of the code that is doing the scaling
var br:mc_bottomright = new mc_bottomright(); addChild(br); //proportional scale if ((stage.stageWidth / stage.stageHeight)> (owidth/oheight))
I am trying to achieve an effect of scaling a movie clip on click...very similar to [URL] When the user clicks on See, Hear, Play and Shop boxes, the boxes expand. I have created a box movieclip that has a bar on top. This bar is a movie clip inside the box movieclip. When i try to scale the main box movieclip, the internal bar movie clip scales as well. How to stop this?
really sorry to bring this one up again. I've managed to create quite good working gallery. What I'm trying to now is create a menu that is attached to the scaling part but does not scale it self - in other words just changes position. here's an example of what I mean: galleru #1

whenever i tween something to x or y using tweenLite, it tweens it to the coordinates realtive to the object itself, how to i tween something to coordinates on the stage?
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});
I just found out today that Adobe's Tween Class is very inefficient compared to Jack Doyle's TweenLite of [URl]. Is Adobe revising their tween classes for CS5 or is it not worth to look into?
Can you tell me what the quickest code is to go from frame 4 to frame 5 with a 6 second pause on frame 4?, I can't figure it out and I have a deadline today! Heres the current code on frame 4... this isn't working, not familiar with
I have a simple animation where 5 objects animate via TimelineLite. However, I can't find a way to have better_mc animate over top of the other 4 objects.. Here's my code:
import com.greensock.*;import com.greensock.easing.*; var timeline:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite(); timeline.append(TweenLite.to(better_mc,2,{alpha:1,
Why I can't add pixelfumes reflect after I tweened the movie clip using tweenLite (greensock)? The reflect worked fine before I started tweening but disapeared after. No errors are thrown. [URL]
public function addTween(mvclp:MovieClip):void { mvclp.y = 720 + (mvclp.height/2) mvclp.x = 730 TweenLite.to(mvclp, 1, {y:360, ease:Back.easeOut, onComplete:addReflect()}); function addReflect():void { var r1 = new Reflect({mc:mvclp, alpha:50, ratio:50, distance:0, updateTime:100, reflectionDropoff:1}); }
im trying to tween a sprite to new 3D coordinates (x,y,z) using AS3 and i would like to use TweenLite to do it but i don't know how?Im not a very experienced programmer, i only started to tackle the 3d possibilities of flash 10 and Tweenlite has been far for my animations.I've been trying to use the QuaternionsPlugin like this:TweenLite.to(myMc, 2, {quaternions:{orientation:new Quaternion(x, y, z, w)}});There's the x,y,z properties but i couldn't figure out what w stand for.I tried an example with the Sprite class below but when i compile it, it says : 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Quaternion.
This object is blitted to the canvas by a renderer via the copyPixels method. The object is NOT a display object. It's a Score-object (self made). The Score-object extends an object called BasicBlitArrayObject. The BasicBlitArrayObject extends an EventDispatcher (therefore no display object).I tried to apply several different TweenLite-plugins to my tempScore-object (i.e. TransformAroundCenter, colorMatrixFilter, etc.). But nothing happens. Absolutely nothing.Sometimes I get error messages (when a plugin requires a display object and my object is NOT a display object). So far so good.
According to Greensock (maker of Tweenlite) his engine can tween ANY numeric property of ANY object. So when a plugin like TransformAroundCenter requires a display object for tweening I have to modify the plugin to get it working for my non-display object (tempScore). Currently I can't do that because it's way too hard for m
Im currently getting the following error:"ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable TweenLite is not defined."I might think its because tweenlite isnt imported correctly, so some path issue - but tried a few things, and still the same.Basically I have my main.fla, where I import a class:path: main. fla /classes / com / myfolder / contact / ContactForm.as.AS: import classes.com.myfolder.contact.ContactForm;In this package I try and import the tweenlite librabry with the following:[code]
Just curious. TweenLite/TweenMax is a very common animation library, and I was wondering how someone would classify the design pattern used in TweenLite.For those of you unfamiliar, here's some example code from their website:[code]
For some reason my TweenLite function won't work. Doesn't give any errors, but it just doesn't do anything and thus the onComplete function won't work to continue the script.

I was wanting to use this code for a project: trouble is I can't have the file call any extraneous files. Since I am still learning I am not sure how to go about adusting this code. Essentially I need it to function exactly the same but using the AS3 Tween Class in place of Tweenlite.
