Flex :: Rotation Transition - Use Shortest Route?
Jun 14, 2010
I have this object in Flex 4
[Code]....
It is a circle divided into 5 equal parts each 72 degrees. So each state you can see is increases the rotation by 72 degrees. I have a transition for the rotation when the state changes like so:
[Code]....
Being that this is a circle you can actually rotate CW or CCW to get to the right degree for the state. Usually the rotation-transition uses whichever is lower. For example to get from Classic to Centro (0 to 72) it goes CW. But this is not always the case. To go from Lace to Lido (144 to 216) it goes CCW. This is not desired sense it would make a much better transition to go CW because it requires less spinning of the circle to get to the desired degree.

In Actionscript, I'm trying to work out the best way to create the shortest route between two point on the map above. I have all the distances.
Algorithms like A* I dont think are relevant as it is near impossible to work out the heuristic distance.
I thought I could create a big array of all the nodes with the distances to any connected nodes and just iterate through until Ive found the the shortest distance, but this I know is very inefficient.

im not exactly sure where to start right now im using a script for dhtml to rotate imaged randomly what i hope to accomplish is background , that will have some type of transition effect and randomly show my images
i have 32 images atm i would like to rotate through i found this and have tried to use it , but not exactly what i want , i need a transitional effect of somekind, and want it to rotate at a given amount of time , say maybe 12seconds[URL]...

I would like to do something like this URl...but have the individual lines animate and show progress along a route. It needs to be a 'real' map so that I can feed in LAT/Longs for for the polylines. This is also a similar effect URL... but I don't need the map panning.I am aware of the google maps api for Flash but there doesn't seem to be any animation other than panning.

i have a flex app that transitions between 2 states with the toggle of a button. my issue is that the effect of fading only seems to work on the 2nd transition and after. However, for my first transition... going from State1 to studyState... there is no fade effect whatsoever, in fact the components in state1 disappear completely (the footer fills the empty gap where the "body" use to be) and then the flex recreates the studyState (without any fade refilling the "body" with components only in studyState). After this first transition however, going between studyState and State1 working COMPLETELY fine.. why does this happen and how can i make it so that crossfade works STARTING FROM THE VERY FIRST TRANSITION?[code]

How could I find the shortest distance between two angles? Like say the distance between 359 degrees and 1 degree is 2 not 358. Any ideas?

I am currently working on a quite big map and trying to provide the shortest path service between two points. From what I saw, this is possible with a small map since it has to calculate ALL possible paths and then choose the shortest one (Am I right?).

I want to put shortest int in shortest:
shortest = 500;
for(i = 1; i <= _global.var_process_count; i++) {
if(_root["process" + i].process_time_original.text < shortest)
shortest = _root["process" + i].process_time_original.text ;
}
What's wrong with above lines of code?

I want to have a video with a different language on each channel, to give the viewer the possibility to switch dynamically. That's easily done with setPan, however you end up with the audio playing on only one channel, and that's pretty bad, specially if you watch in headphones. So my question is:
how do you take one channel from an FLV stream and send it to both speakers?

How I should get started to achieve two things. I am creating a map with places and routes between those places.
Objective 1: When a visitor hovers over a place name, I want a tooltip to show, which they can select to be taken to another html page to display information on that place.
Objective 2: When a visitor hovers over a line or path connecting two places, a tooltip shows to identify that route, and again when the tooltip is clicked, the visitor is taken to the route details html page for further information. I want the tooltip to show up anywhere along the path which is hovered over.
I want to know, how I should start to design this and what elements will be required to achieve this, especially the tool tips. And how easy is it to make a path highlight, like a button, when hovered over, can a path have different states?
Here is a image done in Fireworks of my objectives.

I have been learning about classes and oop programming with AS2. I think I have a very good idea of how it all works, but I'm lacking in one final area before I can truly say I'm coding in OOP. Currently, I use a contentmanager class to route all button commands through. This class handles the removal and preperation of the stage for content change, and then seperate classes handle the actual loading and placement of the new content.
So in a way, its not really OOP, just very well organized code. The next step is Event Management in AS2. I know it can be done, I read through a few tutorials, but get confused by it all. What I'm looking for now is two things.. a very good Event Management tutorial or article if anyone knows of any..
as well as a sample site that can be downloaded or viewed which has been written using OOP. I want this sample site, to re-evaluate how my current way of programming holds up compared to more proffessional examples...(Perhaps even we can turn this into a hot thread with examples of code and structures to help other developers trying to gain a grip on OOP..?)

I have a presentation using the "presentation" template that comes with flash. I am trying to transition slides with the behavior slide transition options. but I've learned that it works find while going into a slide and doesn't go to the next slide when leaving.So basically I want it so that on right arrow first play out transition then go to next slide.

so i finally decided to jump to as3 from as2! (yes, it took me some time XD) I have a better understanding of as3 after reading tutorials, however i have a problem/doubt: I have 2 movieclips on my main timeline with the name of the instances: OBJ_1 and OBJ_2. both have animations. OBJ_1 has a stop on its 1st frame; OBJ_2 has an action in its last frame:

I'm trying to do some augmented reality projects with flartoolkit . I can now put simple 3d objects on my marker and it works fine , but I wanna give my project some events that the user can interact with. I'm trying to trace the rotation of the marker. there's a container:DisplayObject3D which my application uses to add the 3d objects , I traced this :"trace(container.rotationZ)" but it's just returning 0 . I studied another AR application's source code and it was using the rotation of it's container object without problem .and I think I should mention that I'm using the exercise file of seb lee delisle papervision3d course from [URL]. anyone has any experience with flartoolkit? the main functions of my my code is as below:

In the scene there is a star and an AI player.what equation would take the AI player on the most direct route to the star...i.e guide it into the path of the star...just to make things clear, the star is static and the ai plaer is controlled by the computer. i think you have to make two variables distx and disty and use some sort of trigonometry on them but i'm not entirely sure on how to go along doing this.

Currently I am working on a map that will animate the drawing of a line between two points as soon as the user hovers over the end point. A good example of this can be seen on the home page of Jet2.com (the map of Europe).
It seems I am having difficulty with drawing the line dynamically. Of course, just drawing a still line between two points is easy, just use MoveTo() and LineTo(). However, having the line expand in an animation is quite difficult for me.
Here is what I've come up with so far:
Code:
// Create the clip
this.createEmptyMovieClip("drawing_mc",1);
// Declare variables

Is it possible to have the child movieclip rotate separate of the rotation properties assigned to the parent? so ultimately giving the child element it's own axis?I've customized Lee Brimelows (gotoandlearn.com) 3D carousel to spin on the x axis to make it a vertical carousel. I've also rotated that by 45 degrees on the y axis to see all the items, and wrote a snippet of code to hide the left portion of the carousel. The entire carousel is contained within the 'container' movieclip, and inside of that are my carousel items (as seen below), with the larger item being the item in focus.
On rollover of the item in focus, I want to rotate it so it faces the viewer (as seen below),basically removing the 45 degree rotation applied to the container.The problem i'm running into is when you rotate the container (changing the rotationX of the container), the axis basically rotates with it, so when i rollover the next item 'in focus', the following happens..(in the example where it appears how it want it to, the carousel is at a rotationX of 0, so it works fine)

Program A has a cannon that aims to line up with where-ever the mouse is pointing, in 360 degrees, and fires when the mouse is is clicked. Program B has an eye instead of a cannon that should in theory do similar functions when the capslock key is toggled, but instead only has a 90 degree range of motion from the Right of the eye toward the bottom (quadrant 4 only). Where did the ther 270 degrees of rotation disappear to?

i.m trying to create a 3d rotation much like the widely used carousel only the rotation i desire consist of four upright(90 degrees) movieclips resting on a slanted, 30 degree plane which rotate onEnterFrame or following a tween on a oval like path - then pause for a given number of seconds at the four movieclips positions equal in distance on the plane
function around() {
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);

I've been doing a number of pretty basic flash banner ads at the typical advertising size (728x90, 300x250, etc.) but the client wants to throw in some video for this upcoming batch. I've already been given the .flv movie file. It's about a minute long at 3 mb, but I'm only going to use about 4 seconds of it. My question is what is the routine/typical route to take when adding video to banners but also keeping under the file size limitations (around 37k)? I did some brief research and read about progressive downloading but wasn't sure what the typical direction was when delivering files like this to the vendors.
