i wanna do the shape tween or should i say tween a line...one end of the line should stay still while the other should expand and contract moving on a designated path..so its not just an shape tween where line will expand..i want the moving end to go along some path.

One of the strangest things I've EVER seen with any software. I teach Animation at a high school. I had my students do the following, using Flash CS4, on Windows XP SP3, with Flash 10 installed. All software latest as of April 2010.

I'm trying to have a line chart with a fixed y-axis. that is, I have values that are mostly between 30 and 70, but I'd like to have the chart y-axis as a constant between 0 and 100 so it wouldn't resize as new values are coming in (if they happen to be larger than previous values).

I have created a movie clip which contains a bubble inside it which floats upwards. On my main banner i want this symbol to appear randomly (time and location) but at the same height measurement everytime, but a random width value.
I am trying to dispatch an event but not sure when I should do it to get the right results. The first event "submitClicked" is in the right spot and works great. However, the second event "dataReady" seems like it might be a problem. I need it to be dispatched after this.compiledFormData is set.Does AS3 wait for each line of code in a function to be executed before moving on to the next line?

As in the figure i have three lines out of which line1 and line2 are fixed. line3 is derived from line1 based on some angle say 70.I try to rotate the line3 but it deviate from the point x1 and x2. I try the code like this

I'm trying to draw a line that just keeps moving using just AS3. Like when a heart beat monitor flat lines. The reason is I'm adding this to arduino project so when you breath into an alcohol sensor the line will move up if you have been drinking. I just want to be put on the right path.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to move a line around in a circle, around a fixed point (not 0,0). As in the way a clock hand moves around with one end at the middle and the other end traveling in a circle. I tried the rotation function but that moves the entire object around (0,0), I need the point in the middle stationary and at a non (0,0) point.
View 9 Repliesyou know when a flag waves? the movement of an eel? a sperm tail?
that is what i am trying to accomplish. that movement.
other than very rough tweening i am not getting close.
I have a yellow square that i am tweening along the x axis using the .tween class, however this animation starts as soon as the frame is loaded, i have tried several ways to make it start at a stationary position yet to no avail. The play control works so far and it does loop the animation like i want it to yet i just want the square to start at a stop.I also need a working stop button as i can only make it pause curently
View 1 RepliesI have this code inside an ENTER_FRAME event. I'm trying to move the "ball" from its x- and y-position to a tartget x- and y- position:
Code:
if (processClick)
{
if (ball.x < targetX) ball.x += 8;
if (ball.x > targetX) ball.x -= 8;
[Code]....
But the "ball" doesn't move in a straight line, I think it is because the x- and y-movements are processed independently?
Is there a way thay I can make the "ball" move in a straight line from the starting point to the target point?
Also, is there maybe a way to manually create a tween between the starting point and the target point using actionscript? If I export the "ball" movieclip for actionscript?
I have a motion tween right now with a moving point that is following a copied and pasted motion path. Is there a quick way to have the point draw a line behind it as it moves along the motion path??? I can't seem to find a good way to do it in AS3.
View 1 RepliesI want to the user to be able to draw a line and then have a sprite follow the line as its path. Also, it would be nice if the line could be cleaned up after the user draws it with his/her mouse so that it is made up of clean curves/spline.
View 1 Repliesi'm new to these forums and relatively new to AS3 so bare with me basically i have designed a 360degree flash applications using a movieclip that pans a panoramic photo when the mouse moves left or right. I am now having trouble fixing buttons onto the correct place in the scrolling 360 clip because i can't fix the buttons to a specific point (x + y) on the image itself.
View 2 RepliesIn Flash CS5, after you've inserted a keyframe in a motion tween, how do you move that keyframe to another frame?
View 3 RepliesI'm just learning the software and haven't been able to figure this out. I'm trying to create an historic timeline for our company and am using 20 jpg images, which I placed on separate layers and then converted each jpg to a symbol and motion tweened to go across the screen. The problem is that there is a gap between the frames when they play as a movie and I don't know how to get rid of that so that they flow continuously across the screen from left to right seamlessly.
View 5 RepliesDoes anyone know whether it is possible to create a Tween object where the finish property is based on a changing variable?_tween = new Tween(object, "x", Regular.easeInOut, object.x, movingTarget.x, 60, false);The idea is that finish position could be updated with each frame so that the object changes direction in the middle of the tween.I don't know if this is possible (or even desirable)
View 4 Repliesim trying to create a random moving line along the x-coordinate that with each cycle will move for a random distance at a random speed. i can generate the ranom distance and speed just fine, but i cant get the speed to apply the movement for then length of the distance. i have tried using a for loop:

I am trying to move a playing card across the screen from the deck to the players hand. The deck is in a stationary position and each player has 2 card places in front of them which are also stationary. The deck is a movie clip called "deck" and the player cards are named "p1c1" and "p1c2"....(player # card #). The animation I am trying to accomplish is to duplicate the "deck" movie clip and move it to the players card. Once it reaches the players card, the stationary card will load the card image and the duplicated movie clip will be removed to make it appear as a smooth transition.

View 2 RepliesI have created a motion tween to fade in a symbol on the stage. I have set a there is a diamond keyframe marker at the point where the alpha of the symbol goes to 100%. I want to be able to drag that marker to a later point on the motion tween span (not sure if I have my terminology right here) but I find that I cannot -- I have to delete the keyframe and recreate it at the point where I want it.
View 1 RepliesI feel like this should be pretty straightforward, but I can't figure out a way to easily move a single keyframe within a motion tween to adjust timing. I can't even figure out how to delete a single keyframe, for that matter. Everything I try ends up deleting all the keyframes within the tween or the entire tween.

View 2 RepliesThere is a movie clip "card" created dynamically through the code. I have a class, and I instanced it and add it to the stage. I need to move the movie clip on the button click, so I created a motion tween and export it to the code. Then I wrote a function and asign it to the button through the event listener. But the movie clip doesn't move. The event fires, but nothing happens.
Code examples:
1. Instance of a movie clip
var card:MovieClip = new Panic();
card.x=456.20;
card.y=77.30;
card.width=285;
card.height=355;
card.n = "IME";

starting a new AS 3 website and (dont hit me) i must admit this is the first AS 3 site i am doing - it's going rather well but i do have a question. I woudl like to create a class that will draw a simple box outline based on dimensions i pass it. But i want the actual drawing of the box to be tweened. So the lines would start out as 1px lines and then tween to be say 100 px wide by 100px high. I have played around with several tweens on both boxes and lines and nothing has worked to my satisfaction. Problem is the lines get fatter as the width scales out. I am thinking that perhaps the only way to do this is to actually draw lines with line to in some loop on onEnterFrame but have not succeeded. So if anyone has an example of this please do share it.
