Flash :: Flip Movieclip Horizontally

Scrolling Movieclip With Mouse Movement - Horizontally
Hi everyone:
I am trying to make a movie clip that contains different buttons. Not all the buttons will be visible on the stage always, so I want that when the user moves the mouse arrow left, the movie clip containing the buttons updates and move along with it to the right...and vise versa. I found this great snippet of code from Kglad, and it seems to do exactly what I need!!! The issue I am having is that my pieces update only after I am done moving the mouse...so the movie clip is not moving along with the pointer. Attached is the code. Here is a sample of what I am trying to accomplish:
http://sungard.com/

Attach Code

root.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,f);
var t:Timer=new Timer(40,0);
t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,moveF);
function f(e:MouseEvent) {
t.stop();
t.start();
}
var speed:Number = .9;
function moveF(e:TimerEvent) {
front_mc.x =speed*front_mc.x+(1-speed)*(stage.stageWidth-front_mc.width)*root.mouseX/stage.stageWidth;
back_mc.x = speed*back_mc.x+(1-speed)*(stage.stageWidth-back_mc.width)*root.mouseX/stage.stageWidth;
if (Math.abs(front_mc.x- (stage.stageWidth-front_mc.width)*root.mouseX/stage.stageWidth)<1 && Math.abs(back_mc.x-(stage.stageWidth-back_mc.width)*root.mouseX/stage.stageWidth)<1) {
front_mc.x = (stage.stageWidth-front_mc.width)*root.mouseX/stage.stageWidth;
back_mc.x = (stage.stageWidth-back_mc.width)*root.mouseX/stage.stageWidth;
t.stop();

}
e.updateAfterEvent();
}

Urgent : How Do I Spin A Symbol Around 360 Horizontally ? (text Made Into Movieclip).
Hi there..

I'm near ripping my hair off at this point

I just want to spin my text around horizontally 360 %..

What i've tried :
Tried to create a keyframe at pos. 30 and then use "FLIP HORIZONTALLY", then create a keyframe at pos. 60 and did "FLIP HORIZONTALLY" again..
Making both of them motion-tween.

But.. when i do that.. the symbol flips 180 degrees horizontally (like it should do) but then.. it rotates _back_ the same way as it came.. (which is wrong..)

I need to continually spin around 360 %.

How do i do this without writing like.. 300 lines of actionscript which i dont know at all ? hehe..

Hope someone can hlep me with this.

Best regards
Terje.

How To Flip Movieclip :) Is It Possible?
Hi Guys,

How to flip movie clip if certain condition is match?

onCliponClipEvent (load) {
accelaration = 10;
rotation = 10;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this._x += accelaration;
_root.xposition = this._x;
************************************************** *******
like if _root.xposition >= 400
flip this movie!!!

Where _root.xposition is dynamic text field on main time line.

I think this is very very stupid question!!
but is this thing really achivable?
************************************************** *******

Secondly how to restrict rotation angle.
this._rotation += rotation;
above equation will not allow movie clip to have full 360 degree rotation.

Pixelwit Page Flip - CLICK To Flip Instead Of Drag
I love pixelwit's page flip script, but I'm hoping someone could teach me how to modify it so that instead of having to drag the page across the screen, the user only has to click the corner of the page in order to get the page to turn.

Here's an example: http://www.luckymag.com/magazine/flipbook

It may be too much of a departure from the current script, but I thought I'd put it out there.

You can download my test file here: http://www.jessicaberardi.com/pageflip/test.zip

I know there are pre-made scripts out there that do this, but I hate the way they look (too high-tech and over designed). I'd really like to use the script I have or find another one that also has a simple, clean and modern look.

I'd really appreciate any help on this.

Page Flip Won't Flip On Revisit.
Here's the test link:

http://www.dfhdesign.com/routt_testsite/home.html

On this page click the link at the bottom right that will take you to the wedding albums page.
This page loads fine, the page flips....
Then click the weddings link, engagements link, or bridals link. (either one will work)
On either of these pages click on the albums link, this will take you back to the wedding albums page.

Here's the problem:
On the revisit of the albums page, the page won't flip.

I can't figure out why.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Flip Effect - NOT PAGE FLIP
I've searched for tutorials on this but I can't seem to find anything on how to create simple flip effects. I'm not sure if it's some other program than flash or just someone with awesome animation skills - here are a few pages I found on Monster that has this effect.

This looks like its done straight in flash:
http://www.templatemonster.com/flash...tes/15402.html

This looks more like some kind of 3d program:

Either way, I'd like to learn - Any Ideas?

Scrolling Horizontally
I have managed to program a MC which contain a skyline to move to the right if the cursor is on the far left, and to the left if the cursor is on the far right. The skyline is bigger than the stage, so this effect gives the illusion of movement. However the skyline I want the skyline to stop moving when its left edge reaches the left side of the stage, and again to stop moving when the right edge reaches the right side of the stage. I've tried some simple If formulas, utilising the _x command, but so far they have not worked.
Canm anybody help with a simple suggestion as to what I should do?
Thanks

Scrolling Horizontally
Hi all,
I'm quite new to flash and actionscript and ran into a problem. I'm creating a flash movie with a horizontal scrolltext. However this text is variable in width. So i'm using textFormat to determine the width of my dynamic text box based on a certain font type. Then through a setInterval (set at 40) i decrease the number of pixels by 2.

Works perfectly, however when I go over some links on the website the setInterval causes the animation to get jerky. If I stop moving my mouse over some links then the animation is smooth again.

So basically my setInterval isn't working for this purpose since the animation gets jerky once I hover over (html/javascript) links.

Then I thought I might do the trick by creating a keyframe at runtime but then again I read somewhere you can't create those at runtime..

So does anyone know a solution for my problem?

Btw my animation runs in Flash 8.

Thanks for any help ....

Scrolling Horizontally
I just made a scroll area with buttons and draggable items. All the code is written for vertical scrolling, the content I need to be scrolled is going to be horizontal. how can I rewrite this code to be horizontal scrolling? it seems like the scroll button (the one you drag along) doesn't stay confined to its scroll line either.

scrolling = function () {
var scrollHeight:Number = scrollTrack._height;
var contentHeight:Number = contentMain._height;
var scrollFaceHeight:Number = scrollFace._height;
var maskHeight:Number = maskedView._height;
var initPosition:Number = scrollFace._y=scrollTrack._y;
var initContentPos:Number = contentMain._y;
var finalContentPos:Number = maskHeight-contentHeight+initContentPos;
var left:Number = scrollTrack._x;
var top:Number = scrollTrack._y;
var right:Number = scrollTrack._x;
var bottom:Number = scrollTrack._height-scrollFaceHeight+scrollTrack._y;
var dy:Number = 0;
var speed:Number = 10;
var moveVal:Number = (contentHeight-maskHeight)/(scrollHeight-scrollFaceHeight);

scrollFace.onPress = function() {
var currPos:Number = this._y;
startDrag(this, false, left, top, right, bottom);
this.onMouseMove = function() {
dy = Math.abs(initPosition-this._y);
contentMain._y = Math.round(dy*-1*moveVal+initContentPos);
};
};
scrollFace.onMouseUp = function() {
stopDrag();
delete this.onMouseMove;
};
btnUp.onPress = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (contentMain._y+speed<maskedView._y) {
if (scrollFace._y<=top) {
scrollFace._y = top;
} else {
scrollFace._y -= speed/moveVal;
}
contentMain._y += speed;
} else {
scrollFace._y = top;
contentMain._y = maskedView._y;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};
btnUp.onDragOut = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
btnUp.onRollOut = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
btnDown.onPress = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (contentMain._y-speed>finalContentPos) {
if (scrollFace._y>=bottom) {
scrollFace._y = bottom;
} else {
scrollFace._y += speed/moveVal;
}
contentMain._y -= speed;
} else {
scrollFace._y = bottom;
contentMain._y = finalContentPos;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};
btnDown.onRelease = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
btnDown.onDragOut = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};

if (contentHeight<maskHeight) {
scrollFace._visible = false;
btnUp.enabled = false;
btnDown.enabled = false;
} else {
scrollFace._visible = true;
btnUp.enabled = true;
btnDown.enabled = true;
}
};
scrolling();

I did the tutorial found here.... http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm

Scrolling MC Horizontally With Buttons
I'm trying to make a site for my company that has small pictures of our projects that can be scrolled across the screen horizontally. Instead of having a big scroll bar, I just wanted simple little buttons on one side with arrows pointing to either side. I also want to make the pictures buttons that can go to other scenes with the project descriptions.
I've got everything setup within a MC and I have a rectangular mask so the pictures show through, my only problem is the scrolling. I can find tutorials on how to scroll things vertically with a scroll bar, but what I want is to scroll horizontally with buttons. I don't yet know enough about actionscript to manipulate these to suite my needs. Can anyone help? Thanks so much!!

Follow Mouse Horizontally
Okay, I can't seem to get the actionscript to work the way I want it to. I've used this actionscript on my arrows that I want to follow my mouse.

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//The x position of the mouse
xTarget = _root._xmouse;
//This value will deterimine what fraction of the gap to
//cover every time the script is called
fraction = .1;
//these two lines determine the gap between the current
//location of drag and the target. fraction is then used
//to determine how much of the gap to cover.
_x += (xTarget-_x)*fraction;
}

The only problem with this script is it doesn't follow my mouse very closely. It's always lagging behind. I'm sure it's something simple to fix but I have no clue. Does anyone have any suggestions: confused:

*HELP* Making An OSX Bar Scroll Horizontally
Hi, I just threw together an OSX-like scroll bar using some open source fla's that I found on the internet (contact me if you want to know where from).

What I want to do is make the OSX-like bar have about 32 buttons (example only has 20). When you scroll over them the get bigger and fade off and you scroll over more. However, I want this action to be constricted to a semi-small area. Meaning: I want a small area showing only a few buttons at a time and as you go right or left with your mouse the buttons scroll in in a OSX-type fashion.

I've been having a very hard time getting the scrolling / looping of the movie to work out. I would really appriciate it if some of you could take a look at it an help me out.

The FLA can be found here: osx20
A gif of the basic idea of what I want the movie to do:basic idea
(there seems to be a problem with image linking, its at: http://earth.prohosting.com/pshifter/basic.gif if the ling doesnt work -- seems to work if you type it in manually, or something...)

Horizontally Scrolling Movieclips....
I am needing some help with horizontal movie clip movement. I have a flash file that works by itself. The movie clip moves across the screen to the correct spot when you hit the corresponding buttons. But when I try to recreate the action in another flash file, the buttons show, but no movie clip movement. For what ever reason the buttons can no longer talk to the movie clip to move it across the stage.

I have kept everything the same name, kept the actions in the same spot and everything, it just doesn't work.

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this to happen? I will try and supply more details to anyone who wants to help me with this. It shouldn't be a hard thing to accomplish. If you know of any good tutorials on this I would greatly appreciate it.

Horizontally Scrolling Site
I'm not sure if I can explain this too clearly, but I'm sure many of you will know what I mean. There is a type of flash site design that is quite popular, where all the pages of the site are in one long horizontal strip like so:

[ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ][ 4 ][ 5 ]

... and when you select a page from the navigation the site scrolls sideways and stops at the page you want. Do you know what I mean?

My questions are, is there a generic name for this layout/navigation, and does anyone know of a good tutorial that could talk me through it?

Thanks!
