Flash :; Approaches To Opacity Tweening Elements?
Mar 6, 2012I'm working with a Flash (CS5) presentation, so I have a "Next Slide" button on my app. Sometimes, I want to be able to fade in certain elements when I hit "Next Slide".My current way of doing this:
Create a MovieClip from a Rectangle with an opacity tween from 100 to 0 (with ActionScript to stop() at first frame).Copy and paste the MovieClip over the place where I want it to fade in, and give the instances a unique name.Add actionscript to the relevant keyframe of the slide with just rectangle1.play().This works fine when running. The only disadvantage is that once I have one of these rectangle MovieClips on my page, I can't see what's behind it, making it annoying to design the presentation.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Scriptable Mask - Large Mask Behind The Whole Of Flash Site?
Aug 19, 2003 what i am doing is to make something along the lines of the "scriptable mask" tutorial Inigo was kind enough to put up.My idea is to have a large mask behind the whole of my flash site, this masks a colour image with a black & white one (nothing tricky). The image I am using is actually 5 separate images combined, and each is a pic of certain parts of the site.I also have a very basic set of buttons along the bottom... each corresponding to each section.
All I want is to set it up so that when I mouse over the buttons, the _x of the mask moves to correspond with the correct image... really very basic... or so I thought .If anything it should be easier to do than what is in Inigo's tut (where he uses the _x of the mouse to move the mask)... i just cant seem to get it to work with a nice easing effect (its easy to get the mask to simply snap to each coordinate, but I need it to smoothly move).
Html :: Css - Flash Receives Mouse Events Under An Element When Opacity Set?
Mar 27, 2010I have an HTML document with a Flash object and an absolutely positioned HTML element above it. If I set the HTML element's opacity CSS property to any value less than 1, the Flash object (that is actually covered) receives mouse events. This problem cannot be reproduced with pure HTML elements. Furthermore, Flash only receives hover events, so I cannot click below the layer.I put a demonstration of the problem online.I get this behavior in Firefox 3.6, Safari 4.0 and Chrome 5.0 in both Mac and Windows. Flash plugin version 10 is installed.Is it a bug or the the normal and expected behavior? If the latter, then how can I prevent Flash receiving events when it is covered with a translucent layer?

Sep 10, 2010I have a startDrag function set up on a loader and mask that when the mouse is down on the loader it drags, when not it doesn't. There is also 2 buttons that control whether mask1 or mask2 is used. What i would like however is when the mouse is down - the area of the loader outside of the mask is visible but only by about 10/20% alpha, that way the user can see where all the image is while dragging. Is this possible? Full code can be seen below and i have attached the zip with the .fla file:

Nov 23, 2010Suppose I have an image in the background with a white box over the image. What I am trying to do is get the box to oscillate it's _alpha property while diminishing to zero. Producing a 'twinkling' effect. I have the actionscript on the box_mc in an onClipEvent (enterFrame) function. Really there will be a lot of these boxes so the oscillation would have to be random.The code I have right now, which just lowers the opacity at a random rate - no oscillation is below:
onClipEvent (load) { h = Math.random();}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (this._alpha>0) { this._alpha -= h;
}}

View 2 RepliesCreate Own Mask Around A Jpg Image By Drawing Around It On The Mask Layer
Dec 4, 2009maybe point me towards a better way to mask. png file is way too big. I have been using the mask layer option to create my own mask around a jpg image by drawing around it on the mask layer. There has to be a fetter and faster way to do this. Is it possible to maybe have a specific color range have an alpha value of 0. Similar to green screening whereas If I put the item I want to clip on a green background flash will auto take out the green for me. and by auto I mean action script maybe. I think this can be done but im not finding it.
how are these guys clipping these images [URL] they have the movie clips set up where the black background on the 3 layers of shoes is getting masked out. When I go into the shoe movie clips I see there is a black background but it just disappears when I go back to main timeline.

May 13, 2010I have 22 rollover buttons that are a tint. On the rollover, I want the button (75px square) to disappear. On the rollout, I want it to display it's original state.I can't use visibility because it causes a flicker. When I use alpha it resets the opacity to 100% regardless of the number I set it to - e.g. rollover {button.alpha = 0;} / rollout {button.alpha = 50;} still results in a solid box.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rant On Opacity - Transparency And Hex Values
Jan 27, 2011(NOTE: I often mix up weather opacity means "fully visible" or "fully invisible". Is Opacity the same as alpha, or the opposite? Just to be safe, I'm using the word "transparency" instead.) Let's say you ask for a color, and I hand you 0x52BD86
Assuming you were wanting a "regular" color, I just handed you a nice little bluish color. However, assuming you wanted a "32 bit" color (that is, including an alpha channel) I just handed you a completely transparent color (0x0052BD86 to be precise), so it really doesn't matter what the visible color was, it's still going to be invisible.That's why AS3 BitmapData has separate methods "setPixel" and "setPixel32".
Would it not be better to have the first 8 bits be a "transparency" value, so instead of 0 being invisible and 255 fully visible, flip them, making 0 completely visible, and 255 completely transparent? That way, if I hand you 0x52BD86, you can basically assume I mean completely visible. Then we won't even need separate functions for 32 bit colors. But, this probably goes deeper than AS3, and likely would mean changing the way color is treated throughout the last couple of years, or? Is there any reason they created the alpha bits like that?

View 6 RepliesSmoothly Fade Images Together Or Lower An Image Opacity?
Sep 16, 2009I'm about to put my fist through the screen when trying to smoothly fade images together or lower an image opacity. The alpha is all the same throughout the tween. If I slide the alpha down on one keyframe, the entire tween's opacoty lowers instead of changing over the tween timeframe. I've resorted to using mask wipes.
Is there anyway to fade an image into another one or lower the opacity on a jpg? I'm stuck and can't figure it out. When I drop my image into the stage, it's a bitmap. There is no option to change it to a movie clip.I think when I create a tween, it allowed me to make a movie clip, I switched the graphic to a movie clip, but the alpha still didn't work.
C# :: C# - Generating Colours After Applying Opacity Of Black And White
Aug 31, 2011how to describe what I want, but here goes. Assume I have 3 textboxes, and I enter some colour hex code in the first one, I want to apply a black layer on top of it, and have the opacity set to 50% and get the resulting colour in the second text box. Same thing, but with white on the third one.
Let me explain: consider this image below: In Photoshop, I have the base layer which is sort of sky blue in colour. I create two layers on top of it, one with black, one with white but both have an opacity of 50%. Now, I can use the colour picker (I) to simply select the two wanted colours.
I am having to do this an insane amount of times so I was wondering if I could produce it programatically.
I know, Ideally I should have tried out something, then give out the code which isn't working.. but this has stumped me enough that I don't even know where to start. The closest thing I've seen is Kuler so I think it is possible in flash at least, but then again, I don't know where to start.
Technology is not important to me, solution is - I am most comfortable with c# (at least I like to think I am) but I am a beginner in php, flash. Jquery, I am good at it with most stuff (well, who isn't?) - Php and Flash, I learnt it as a hobby just to familiarize myself.

I want to change their opacity to zero onclick preferably as a tween from where they are now in opacity (100%) to the zero. I need some assistance with this. I know it involves importing classes and creating a function. I also believe I can control the set of 5 buttons with iteration.
ClickMe.onPress = function() { for (var i=1; i<=5; i++) { ['B1_'+i].changeopacity = MyMC!['B1_'+i].changeback; }
I know this isn't how to do it, but is something along the lines of what I need.
