Flex :: Actionscript - Rotating An Ellipse From The Bottom Instead Of Middle
Jun 18, 2011
got another little provlem with flex ... i've made a ellipse and i want to rotate it dynamicly. made a h:slider which change the rotate="" value of the ellipse. and it rotates fine. but the rotation point is in the middle of the ellipse.
i want it at the bottom (y) and middle (x).
there are some transformY and transformX arguments for the ellipse, but they have no effect?
my function
private function rotateRadius():void {
if(wind.selected) {
selected.radiusDisp.rotation = radiusRotate.value;
[Code]....

I'm trying to design a child's bracelet game, where they can drag and drop beads onto a string (circle) but I'm having trouble snapping the object onto my ellipse (circle), Currently the ball (bead) is stuck rotating around the ellipse, but I need it and multiples to be dragged from the bottom of the screen and then be able to snap to the ellipse once its closer, basically so that the child can choose a bead and drag it onto a string, to create their very own bracelet,

Let's say I have the following MXML:
<s:Group id="b01">
<s:Ellipse x="267" y="96" width="30" height="28">
<s:stroke>[code]....
And that I have a dozen more of these groups with different ID's. How can I modify the fill color of each Ellipse using ActionScript? I know I can do something like this:
b01.getElementAt(0).width;
And that will give me the width of the Ellipse. But how can I access the SolidColorStroke color or the SolidColor fill?

I am about to start a Flex project. For the GUI, I'll follow the Cairngorm 3 guidelines and use (most likely) Parseley. I have experience with Grails, Spring, Seam and also have played with PHP. So, which one of these framework has a better integration with Flex? By "better integration", I mean, in the order of importance, coding-friendly, documentation, maturity, size of community (of the integration framework/library), support.

When using BasicLayout (i.e. absolute positioning) - what is the best approach to place a Flex component in the center of the application?In the test case below I'm using x="{width/2}" but this gives me at least 2 problems:How do I account for the component dimensions (the ProgressBar in the test case)?Is the binding {width/2} a good idea to use? Wouldn't it send unnecessary DATA_CHANGE events in some cases?And finally I wonder, how this all applies to full screen applications using StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL - because currently my application is aligned to the top-left in the full screen mode and there is a white dead zone on the right of it. (Which is at least a change from pure Flash/AS3 behaviour, where the full screen content is displayed in the center of the screen and 2 dead zones on the left and right).[code]

I tried to search, but couldn't find anything on the topic. In many languages in eclipse you can execute code in the middle of debug session. Usually it's done through the console.
Is there a way to do the same thing in the Flash Builder? EDIT: Ok, i'll to explain better. Is there a way to execute some code in the middle of the debug session? Like in python you can type in console in pydev(eclipse) when the program is paused(being debugged) and run any code you want.

If I want to align things vertically in a container, I'll use verticalAlign="middle", but this doesn't exactly solve the problem of truly aligning text vertically. Text is always too high vertically, so in the past, I've just adjusted paddingTop and paddingBottom to compensate, but that doesn't work as the font for _sans differs from operating system to operating system.
Given the following layout code, you'll see the problem:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
[Code]....
What happens is pretty clear. The horizontal line gets aligned to the exact middle of the box, but the text is offset by some arbitrary amount. I assume that this is because of the text baseline alignment or something. Is there a way to fix this regardless of the font size and face? I'd like to have the line essentially go right through the middle of the text, ignoring the extra space possibly needed for below the logical line of text (ie: ignore the bottom part of "g's" and "j's" when laying things out).

I am working with this function that moves an object around a center point in a perfect circle and am trying to modify it to move it in an oval shape that is 1/2 as high as it is wide?
Basically, I have a set speed
var myVelocity:Number = 0.25;
Then I calculate my Sine and Cosine based on the speed
var myCos:Number = Math.cos(myVelocity);
var mySin:Number = Math.sin(myVelocity);
Then I figure the distance of the the object from a fixed center points along each axis and
var x1:Number = myBall.x - centerX;
var y1:Number = myBall.y - centerY;
var x2:Number = myCos * x1 - mySin * y1;
var y2:Number = myCos * y1 + mySin * x1;
myBall.x = centerX + x2;
myBall.y = centerY + y2;
I have another function that figures x and y based upon myBall.x = centerX + cos(angle) * radius; that is easy enough to modify the radius to become an ellipse, but is there an easy way to mod the one above to become an ellipse? I want to do this to be more efficient with the code and reduce the number of math function calls

I have 7 movieclips on stage I want to tween around an ellipse from different start points. I am having lots of trouble doing this. I used a circle formula at first and then divided the y value by the width of the ellipse over the height. This sort of worked but after every rotation the y value was a little of. That code is:
this._x += (Math.cos(angle * Math.PI/180) * radius);
this._y += (Math.sin(angle * Math.PI/180) *radius)/1.54;
I also have trouble finding the angle of the start point, if it is off they won't travel in the same ellipse but they all have different starting angles.

I'm in the final stages of my Papervision project and I need to have the camera orbit around its target in an ellipse rather than a circle on a mouse drag. The tricky part is I already am using some complicated logic to get it easing as well and I need them to work together.
ActionScript Code:
private function upHandler(event:Event):void {
isCameraRotating = false;
} private function downHandler(event:Event):void {
isCameraRotating = true;
previousMousePoint = new Point(mouseX, mouseY);

have been messing around with ppv3d for a small project whereby a ball orbits some text. I would like the path of the orbit to be a visible line with a glow effect on it.at the moment I have a sphere located on an invisible spinning cylinder, with the text in the middle so the sphere orbits it. I've tried drawing lines from one point to another on the cylinder but it's not working.

Any way to bottom-left align components? An <HBox .../> nested in a <Canvas .../> doesn't work because the elements in the HBox are top-aligned instead of bottom aligned.
For example, I'd like my components to be aligned like this:
+-------------+ <-- container
| components |
| | V |
| V +--+ |
| +-+ | | |
| +-+ +--+ |

I'm making a flex 3.5a/air2 application and I've made a popup window but I can't seem to get its bottom corners rounded. Setting cornerRadius seems to only affect the top corners. There doesn't seem to be a roundedBottomCorners property like there is for panels, and adding a controlbar with a cornerRadius also has no effect.

ViewNavigator has ActionBar on top by default. I want move at the bottom.
navigator.actionbar.y=415 //gets actionbar at bottom
but in next view it comes back on top. You can set height in each view but it will show bar at the top for few seconds before bring back to bottom.

Apologies for the rookie Q - trying to learn Flex/Actionscript and just having some basic layout issues. (Using FlashBuilder 4, with Flex 4.5 HERO SDK) I have a TitleWindow, and have embedded a mx:TabNavigator within it. I have then placed a list within the first tab and set its width/height to 100% However, there appears to be a gap between the top of the list, and the bottom of the tab menus. Why is this happening and what is the best way to ensure the top of the list aligns up flush with the top of the VBox?
