Flash :: Rolling Dices

Rolling Nav Bar
I'm new here, looking for some help. I'm not too experienced in Flash but my boss needs me to make a scrolling nav bar. Basically it will be a bar about 100 pixels high and 100% width at the bottom of the page. The point of the swf is almost a powerpoint, there are going to be 100+ pages/frames. The title box will be on display in the center bar taking up about 75% of the width with 5 or 6 next bars on the right and 5 or 6 previous bars on the left. If the user clicks the next button it will wipe onto the nav bar and squish the previously large title bar into a small bar on the left. I hope I've made this clear. Is there any type of script or anything that could help me to do this without making 100+ animation for each page?

Rolling Over
I am having problems with a button linked to a movie. The button and movie are right next to each other in the same frame. The idea is when I roll over the button the movie plays, but I cannot get the movie to play at all. I have put a stop command in the first frame of the movie to stop it from playing immediately. And I have the following action commands on the button:

on (rollOver) {
movie1.play();
}

Rolling Buttons
I am interested in making my buttons have a roll-over action as if when you roll over it an object appears to rise and when you roll off the object to another it falls. I understand that i need to make a movieclip for the rollover action but how to make a controller that tells it to fall or move when you rolloff. I just saw a sneaker ad for the allstar game that had button rollovers that were similar to what I wanted and rose and fell when you went over the name of the player.
Any help would be a ppreciated!
thanks

Rolling Over Movies
Is there an actionscript to change the color of a mc on the stage? it is going to play on release, but I want to button to look actionable when you roll over it.

thanks!

Rolling Ball
I want to make a photo of a tennis ball roll along the the screen before coming to a halt. I have made the bitmap into a movie clip symbol (F8) and have used pi x D to calculate the circumferance and using that calculated the length of the tween and number of rotations required.

The problem is that the origin for the rotate in the tween has defaulted to the top left of the movie clip symbol and I can't figure out how to move the origin to the centre.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks

Rolling Buttons
I didnt know realy how to put this... I know this button effect is probably made with a movieclip button.... with OnRollOver and OnRollout actions. But mine are not quite working like theses.

I want to make that same effect but instead of going sideways the title of the button should animate verticaly...

Here is the buttons i want to recreate...

i appreciate any feedback, help, cooperation, and your time.
thank you very much in advance

[F8] Rollover Not Rolling Out...
Hello,

I have a flash movie (web site) that originally had a menu with 6 options.

I copied the last option twice, which gave me 2 additional menu items; a total of 8. I changed the instance names according to how all the other names were called in the respective actionscript areas.

My problem is that these last 2 menu's do not roll "out" (click through the menus 7 and 8 in the example.) Could anybody tell me what I may be missing here?

Rolling On Impact?
Right, I have a standing, a running and a jumping MC, all in a hero MC all working.
I have the platforms and walls all good.
But I can't work it so that once I land a jump it will go to the "roll" MC.
Atm, when I jump I do a somersault and repeat it as needed, but if he lands halfway through a flip, it looks odd.
How do I get it so that on collision with "platforms" he will go to the rolling MC?
Cheers
I'll post my code if that helps?

Rolling Ball...
Hi,

I am using the following 2 lines of code to control the timeline inside the about us page of this website i am building.

on (release) {
if (this._parent._currentframe == this._parent._totalframes) {
this._parent.gotoAndStop(5);
} else {
this._parent.nextFrame();
}
}

and

on (release) {
if (this._parent._currentframe == 5) {
this._parent.gotoAndStop(this._parent._totalframes );
} else {
this._parent.prevFrame();
}
}

I would like to make the prev/next ball to roll from one position to the next, but i just cant work it out.
I would be enternally grateful if one of you actionscript guru's could help me.

Thanks in advance,

Julian

Rolling Your Own Buttons?
I would like to use my own movieclip
instead of just using a button symbol
How do I get something similar to a "hit area"

I am only getting rollover events from the black bits on my text

I tried using a recangle mc with the alpha down but I would really like a simpler solution

Many Thanks!

Rolling Balls?
Hello everyone,

Does anyone know, or have an idea how Strille has managed to get the rolling ball effect ( I am not concerned with collision detection for the moment) in this?

http://www.strille.net/works/marbles_v1.swf

I would truly appreciate your ideas.

Text Rolling
Here is my problem. It should be quite easy but i don't know much about action script.

I want to make a text rolling from 99 to 0 and then start again and again.
So I made a movie clip but i'm too lazy to write 99 , 98 , 97...

So I put a square for dynamic text (instance name ptchiffre) and an action layer.

That's where i'm stuck...
I tried something like:

x = "100-y*5";
ptchiffre = "x"

here y should be the frame number

logicaly the mc would have only 20 frame...

But if you know something easier to do it you are free to let me know

Rolling Effect
hi every1, I'm pretty new to this forum and i love it, and im sorry if i posted this in wrong section.
ok my question is, if any1 knows how i can get effect of rolling paper
here is the website i found it http://tilemania2000.com/index-if.php
on the top of website is animated banner u can see clearly the squares that are rolling there,
i would like to know how to get this effect and what additional program i should use if i have to.
also in this animation there is small picture slide show, pictures fly in as tiles and make picture , than fly out, is there any way to make this effect not simply dividing pictures into small pieces and doing this animation picture by picture, is there any additional program i can use like for instance mxfix (except this program is only to make text effects)
thanks

Six - Rolling Buttons
I'm tring to make a six button interface for which each button will rotate when I do a mouseover. In addition, I wish to add text to each of the rolling buttons but by doing so it the filesize will be too large. I mean, The filesize will be too large if I have to make several layers and tween each one them.

Is there a way to make SINGLE button tween and have it so that it displays six times (one under the other) with a different text-logo on each of them?

Rolling Through The Scenes
how should i switch between the scenes?
i'd like to roll through them, displaying each of which for a sertain number of seconds.

Rolling Menu
Hmmmm, I looked at some past posts and couldn't find what I needed, so hopefully some of you guys can help.

Basically, I am trying to create a button, when mouseover, the button moves up revealing a little text description dealie. As soon as you roll off the button (or the text), it should play an animation moving the menu backdown. I am attaching what I have currently, but I think I don't quite understand this masking thing.

-Thanks!

P.S. The MC that im having problems with is Shortcut MC. Also, the subheader slogan, that's just kind of filler, thats not really the slogan.

How Can I Make A Rolling Menu?
How can I make a rolling menu?? I read the tutorial here on flashkit, but I got stuck, since I need a good description of how to make one. I'm a newbie, so that's why.

Rolling Your Own Scroll Buttons
I am trying to scroll a ruler graphic that I made up in Flash. I can easily get it to scroll down when I hold down the button and then it stops when I release it. But I can't figure out how to get the ruler to reverse course which means play backwards.

Scroll down button (works):

on (press) {
play();
}
on(release) {
stop();
}

Scroll back button (doesn't work):

on (press) {
count = 0;
do {prevFrame();
} while (count !=1);
}
on(release) {
stop();
}

Rollover Stopped Rolling Over
Both of the websites that I am working on right now are having problems. Here's what they are doing. I have actionscript that tells some things to change color on rollover. They change, but then go back to how they were right away. I also have some tell target stuff that does the exact same thing. (It goes to the target and then right back to where it was.) Those problems are on the following page:
http://www.venture2degrees.com/home.html
The tell target problems occur on the "downloads" page, as well as the "pictures" page.

I am having somewhat the same problems on this page as well:
http://www.computersource.cc/newcomp...ompsource.html
This one has a navigation system at the top that is supposed to bring up a pull down type of menu. (If you mouseover just right you can kind of see it.) It also has the same actionscript that changes the color of words when you rollover them. The rollover actionscript seems to work sort of okay on the menu system, but nowhere else on the page. (The little hand does not come up though.) Both of these websites worked just fine until just recently. (The first one quit working today after I uploaded it to the server, and the second on quit working 2 days ago when I uploaded it to the server.) At first I thought that it was a problem with the server or my FTP program, but neither one of these websites will work from my cd anymore either. I am hoping that someone else has either had this problem themselves, and know what happened, or know what to do about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. oh yeah, on the bottom of the second page there is a little block of boxes that have a masked movieclip playing behind them. Well, it just sits there and doesn't play.

Rolling Scenery - Flash 5
I have a movieclip containing scenery which I'd like to put on a continuous roll - any hints/clues about the code for this? I'm guessing that once the clip's passed a certain point another one needs to load, but my poor walnut brain fogs over when it comes to the code...

Many thanks.

Rolling Over Fade In/out Button, Needs To Appear 100%
I've got a button that fades from 0 to 100% off and on. When it's fading out or in, if someone rolls over it, I need it to appear 100% instead of the faded shade...hopefully that makes sense.

If anyone can let me know what variable to add to this, that would be great!

thanks!

Please Help Me Get This Actionscript Ball Rolling
I am just starting w/ actionscript, and I am following O'Reilly's guide. I entered my first few lines of actionscript to the T. I am not a Flash idiot, but am no expert. I tested the movie: checked, and re-checked about 30X's, and it outputs nothing, does anyone have experience with this sort of thing?

The code I entered is as follows:

var message = "Hi there, Flash!";
var firstName = "Giuseppe";
trace (message);
trace ("Hi there, " + firstName + ", nice to meet you.");

I open the output window, press test and nothing happens.

Playing A Mc When Rolling Out Of A Button?
How do you make it so that when you roll out of a button it continues playing the rollover movie clip, rather than cutting it out.

Or when you roll out, make it play a movie clip?

Cheers.

Realistic Rolling Motion
Hello,

I'm trying to make a little animation where a stone head falls off a wall and rolls a few times once it's hit the ground.

I've used the free transform tool and moved the point of rotation at different keyframes but it just looks rubbish when it's played back!

How do I get this to look like realistic motion?

Many thanks.

Animation When Rolling OFF A Button
Hi there,

I've visited a few Flash websites recently where the buttons have animations attached to them when you roll the mouse over them and again when you move the mouse away.

I've figured out how to do the animation when the mouse moves over it by simply adding a movie clip to the "over" keyframe in FlashMX. How though, do I add an animation when the mouse moves away?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated as I'm stuck!

Adrian.
