Animated Mask (round Corner)
I need to have a animation which slowly builds an arrow which bends 180 degrees. I want it to appear from the start of the arrow and finish at the end of the point.
I have used a mask of the object with a shape tween which is fine for straight edges but how do i animate a shape so it can go around the angle of the arrow.
Like the arrows in the diagram attached.

Round The Corner...
Hello.
First off, sorry for this image, I only had MS Paint available.
[img=http://img160.imageshack.us/img160/1278/corneringna8.jpg]
Basically, I want to be able to flick this ball along a line, which I can do easily enough. However, when it gets to a radius near a corner, I need it to travel round like it's on rails. Any ideas? I can think of a very messy bodged system but it really is a bodge! It basically involves hiding and showing various movieclips at different stages. :/
Anyway, if anyone can think of something I'd like to hear it.
Thanks, A.

API - Preloader - Circle Mask Going Round?
I'm working on a preloader which has a circular bar instead of the regular straight progress bar. I'm trying to draw the mask using flashs api rather than timeline it. I've got the circle drawing in fine and the size of the mask etc is perfect, but it just doesn't want to mask. does anyone have any ideas for suggestions!!???
ActionScript Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("preloaderMASK", 1);
var radius = 110;
var targetDegrees = 280;
var degrees= -100;
var speedV = 20;
lineStyle(25, 0xFF00FF, 100);
moveTo(273.5, 84.25);
preloadBAR.setMask(preloaderMASK);
preloaderMASK.onEnterFrame = function(){
if (degrees < targetDegrees) {
degrees = degrees + ((targetDegrees+0.1) - degrees) / speedV
}
if (degrees > targetDegrees) {
degrees = degrees - (degrees - targetDegrees) / speedV
}
radians = degrees * (Math.PI/180);
follower_mc._x = centerPointMC._x + (radius * Math.cos(radians));
follower_mc._y = centerPointMC._y + (radius * Math.sin(radians));
follower_mc._rotation = degrees + 100
lineTo(follower_mc._x, follower_mc._y);
endFill();
}
stop();

Turn Circle Into Square, Corner After Corner...
I made a clip that will turn a circle (or disk) into a square that will then become a big rectangle on which I will display pictures. I wanted the disk to become a square corner after corner so I used shape interpolation. It worked with the first corner so I did the other 3 corners using 90° clockwise rotations. However, the 4 corner interpolation has a different behaviour. Can someone explain me how I could fix that?
Thanks a lot! ;-)

Animated Mask
I want to animate my mask to slowly reveal a christmas tree sketch. The drawing is attached to see what im talking about. I want the line to reveal itself from the top down revealing the line as it goes down to the bottom.
I tried to shape tween with different shapes but I can't keep them the right shape so it only reveals the line.
Any suggestions.

Animated Mask
Hello,
I'm trying to mask a graphic and I want the mask to be animated. I'll try to describe the animated mask.
I have a symbol that's 10 by 50 pixels.
frame 1: it's scaled to 1 by 50
at
frame 5: it's 10 by 50
then motion tweened.
I make ten layers of this with each layer offset by one frame. So it's kind of like a window blind opening one slice at a time.
I take that movie and put if over the graphic making sure that there are enough frames to cover the movie. I set up the movie as MASK and the graphic as MASKED and the mask doesn't play. Am I missing something here?
Thanks in advance.

Animated Mask
Hello, After I finished the first roll-over-movie-clip-button for my Flash project, I'm now getting starting to work on the animation, and now I have another question......
I want to make a very smooth transition from my 1st page(white background color) to a bit map image background.
My problem is, I want to use a vector-graphic as a shape which would mask-out the background image, what I mean is, the bit-map image should be shown inside the vector-graphic... hopefully, you guys understand what I mean.... And I want to apply the vector graphic(as a mask) for many many times, and enlarge them in the tween, until all the shapes become sticked together, in order to show the whole background image.
I have seen this effect from some other sites for many times, Can anyone give me so suggestion?
I have downloaded a resource file from a website, the file got the simular effect, please check the attached file.
The only different with my design is, I don't need the play button, I want it plays automatically. I've created all the elements on my own which also named as same as those elements in the resource file, just because I wanna to save some time for writing the script... ... of course it doesn't work, here is the script in my Flash:
var rows = 8; // rows of fading squares
var cols = 11; // columns of fading squares
// ^ these are based on your square's width and the area it has to cover
var speed = 10; // speed of fade
// Fader: causes a clip to fade based on timeline's speed
// once a timeout variable reaches 0
Fader = function(){
if (this.timeout-- <= 0){ // if time to fade
// fade until 0 alpha then remove
if ((this._alpha -= speed) <= 0) this.removeMovieClip();
}
}
// CreateSquares: creates the squares over an area starting at x, y
// and based on cols, rows that fade out based on Fader
CreateSquares = function(x, y, rows, cols){
// variables; r and c count rows and columns
var r, c, square;
var depth = 0;
var initx = x; // initial x position
for (r=0; r<rows; r++){
for (c=0; c<cols; c++){
// create each square for each row and column
square = this.attachMovie("whitesquare", "square"+depth, depth, {_x, _y:y});
square.timeout = Math.floor(Math.random()*100); // random fade timer for Fader
square.onEnterFrame = Fader; // Fader as onEnterFrame event function
depth++;
x += square._width; // set next position for next square
}
x = initx; // return x back to the left of the square grid
y += square._height; // increase y for next row
}
}
// create the squares to begin the effect
// content is the movieclip holding the image to
// be revealed in this manner
CreateSquares(content._x, content._y, rows, cols);
And here is the error message:
**Error** Scene=Main, layer=Layer 21, frame=15:Line 1: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
var rows = 8; // rows of fading squares
**Error** Scene=Main, layer=Layer 21, frame=15:Line 2: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler

Animated Mask Like @ Nike.com
I am a newbie and made the mistake of showing my boss Nike's site. Now he want's me to do the same. All I need the mask to do is slide over hidden photos, not the full blown nav bar. I've managed to build a mask using the following code:
this.attachMovie ("Mask", "mcMask", this.getNextHighestDepth ());
mcImageOne.setMask (mcMask);
mcMask.startDrag (true);
...but the mask is all over the map, I can't figure out how to make it slide across.
This, of course, doesn't make the mask follow the mouse either. You still have to drag it.
Tanx in advance!

Animated Mask Problem :s
Hi all,
I want to add a mask to a mc to make it appear or dissapear when needed.
(to open or close an audio player actually)
Normally i do this within a timeline combined with some AS. But now i'm trying to use only AS, but somehow it doesn't work.
Anyone see the problem? :
Code:
this.attachMovie("mcMask","mcMask", 6);
this.attachMovie("mcPlaying","mcPlaying", 1);
mcMaskW = 725; //Width
mcMaskH = 39; // Height
mcPlayingW = 725; //Width
mcPlayingH = 39; // Height
mcPlaying.setMask(mcMask);
//Create interval var
var nInterval:Number;
Ease = 6;
// Calculation to get a nice animated motion to new values.
function Calculation():Void {
mcMask.width += (mcMask_newW - mcMask.width) / Ease;
mcMask.height += (mcMask_newH - mcMask.height) / Ease;
}
function startMaskMotion():Void {
mcMask_newW = 250;
mcMask_newH = 2;
Calculation();
updateAfterEvent();
}
btTest.onRelease = function(){
clearInterval(nInterval);
nInterval = setInterval(startMaskMotion, 30);
}
Applying the mask works, but somehow the animation after clicking the btTest btn doesn't work :S
Thanks in advance!!
Cheers,
AC

[CS3] Animated Mask Cause MC To Play Twice
For example. I have a movieclip with a ten frames long shape tween. Keyframe 10 has a stop() action. This movieclip is placed on frame 1-10 of the stage. On stage and on a layer above, I create another 10 frames long shape tween. Again, keyframe 10 has a stop(). I then turn this layer to a mask for the layer with the movieclip.
When I test the movie, the movieclip shape tween will not stop at frame 10 but instead play an additional time. I don’t understand why. If I turn off the mask function, it will stop as expected. Also, if the last keyframe of the mask is converted into an ordinary frame (thus destroying the shape tween), the movieclip shape tween will stop as expected.
I can work around this but I like to understand why this happen.

Animated Mask And External Swf's
I have read several threads concerning external images being loaded under a mask on the timeline. They have all talked about loading the jpeg completely before applying the mask. Here is my issue:
I have tried loading either an image or .swf under a mask that is animated frame by frame. Even when it is loaded before the mask is applied, the first frame will work, but when the next frame plays the content that was loaded externally disappears. I have tried putting the mask in it's own mc, but the problem is not solved. Has anyone found a solution to this, because I am about to abort mission...

Animated Mask Problem
I am new to Flash and am using Flash 5. I have created a fla file that contains an animated mask layer consisting of a rectangle with no fill or stroke that moves over an eps file I imported from Illustrator. There is no text involved. When I hit enter to view it, the animated mask works. When I publish it as either a swf or a mov file, the animated mask does not appear at all. I don't know what is wrong. My default browser is Foxfire. I don't know how to preview it in IE to see if it works there but because it doesn't show up in the Flash player or in Quicktime, I figure I've done something wrong but I have no idea what. Can anyone help?

But nothing is happening.

Curved & Animated Mask
I have a curved graphic that I need masked, but the mask will slowly unveil the graphic below. I'm tweening the mask on the timeline since the graphic has a pretty complex shape (a bunch of curveTo's would take forever).
If I apply a shape tween to the mask it doesn't tween on curves that well unless I place a keyframe at every two frames and adjust the shape. Does anyone know if there is a better solution?

Problems With An Animated Mask
here's the deal i have a movie clip of a horizontal line that i motion tweened to go up and down the side of the screen of the main movie, easy enough works great. then i decided that it would be nice if i put the title of the screen written
v
e
r
t
i
c
a
l
l
y
and stationary under the begining of the line, again easy enough, then i decided to create a mask that would follow the motion tween of the line so i created a layer inbetween the line layer and the text layer, put a filed rectangle over the text and masked the layer. i motioned tweened the mask layer to ride just above the line has it goes up and down revealing the text each time it runs over it. now this movie clip works fine in the small window above the library but when i put it in the movie and test the scene or publish it all that shows up is the line moving up and down no text? what have i done wrong is there some way to fix it or do it that i am not aware of.

Animated Mask With A Frame?...
What I am trying to do is create a user-animated mask, that has a frame around it.
I have the masked object created, and have the mask animated using the startDrag method. That is working fine. But how do I ad a "frame" around the mask, say an effect that looks like a targeting device or something like that?... I want the frame to move around with the frame as the user moves the mask.
"How?"

Mask Of Lines Over Animated Gradient
Im sure many others as well have seen the effect where a gradient runs thru a mask of lines. Often times its seen in web host flash headers. Anyways, I have recently been trying to acheive this effect in Flash MX 2004 Pro. I have gone through countless tutorials about animated masks and 'glare effect for text'. Here is what im doing:
- I have a layer on top filled with vector lines, in white. This is set as the mask.
- I have a layer below the mask with a gradient (white w/ 0% alpha to white w/ 100% alpha to white w/ 0% alpha) moving from left side of movie to the right. This layer is being masked.
- And I have a background of a dark gradient (#006699 to #000000) left to right respectivly.
When I play the movie, all I see is the background, no lines, no gradient, no effect. I have checked to make sure that all the frames are there and that all the objects are in each frame and they are.
I have ran through tutorials for shine effects for text which is basicly what im trying to acheive with lines instead of text. It works fine with text as the mask layer.
So, why is this not working?

Animated Converging Lines - No Mask
I am wanting to create about 5 arc'd lines that draw themselves using actionscript, and have them converge on to one location. Think of it this way, lines over a US map converging on to Florida. I want them to all draw at the same time. I know how to do this with a mask, and I know it can be done through action script, but I'm just now diving back into flash after taking some time off. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or show me an example?

[FMX] Problem: LoadMovie With Animated Mask
Hello all. I've come seeking advice.
See, I've got this interactive storybook that loads each page from separate swf files into a movie clip. The movie clip is masked, and with every turn of the page, the mask changes shape so it looks like the pages are covering up the content. Once the page turn is complete, we're supposed to be left with two fresh pages so we can load more content.
Here's my dilemma: It seems the movieclip unloads itself when the mask enters a new keyframe. I don't know how to work around this. I've tried making a separate movie clip out of the mask, and animating it on its own timeline, but that hasn't worked. Nothing else reacts this way to a moving mask. Anyonw have any thoughts?
Here's what I'm talking about:
http://www.offchild.com/linked/contr...urnProblem.htm
And the source:
http://www.offchild.com/linked/contr...urnProblem.fla
(please forgive the clutter of layers)
And the swf loaded into the movie clip:

Hope I'm communicating this issue clearly enough.

Dynamic Mask From Animated Line?
I want to create a mask from an animated line. I found out pretty quick that you can't use a line to mask, only fills. So, can I convert the line to a fill as it's being drawn? Or do I need to put multiple instances of a shape along my line at intervals?
I keep seeing requests for an animation of writing. I figured it would be easier to have the text in one layer and use the animated line as the mask. It sounded good in theory.
Any one have any ideas.
I've attached my test that shows the line being drawn. I was playing around with some different objects to use as masks and that's how I saw that lines can't be used as masks. I wish they could.

Animated Gradient With Mask Not Working...
Hi, all. First time post, been lurking & learning. My question - after breaking apart & distributing to layers, my text animates in from right of stage (text has a couple of applied filters-blur, gradient glow). The effect I want is light moving across my text after the animation of the text string moving onto the stage stops. I followed a couple of tut's, but the effect only appears on the very last letter of the text string, and it appears the applied filters are gone. I think there's a problem because all letters of the text are on separate layers, and the tutorials only explain the effect with a block of text typed on a single layer, not animated. How do I get this effect to work properly? By the way...many, many thanks to all of you. I'm moving from Frontpage to Flash, and I've learned so much in a short period of time reading your posts. (Hasan, you blow me away). There are moments of so much frustration, I wonder if I'll ever get the hang of Flash! Thanks much for motion tweening me through this learning curve! JB.

How To Center A Randomly Animated MC Inside Its Mask?
Hi:
How do you center a clip within a mask?
I have a random easing script, that works great, except I can't figure out how to center the MC I'm animating within it's mask.
To center a popup in Javascript you just subtract the width of the popup from the screen width/resolution and divide the remainder by 2. So, I tried subtracting the width of the mask from the width of the photo inside of it, and dividing by 2, but it doesn't work. However, the width of the photo and the width of the mask are the only two constants I have to work with to fix a center point.
Below is an example:
http://www.ekigroup.com/random/randomEasing.swf
I have the above example working well, but in a convoluted way. So, the formula changes when the size of the mask changes. I'm looking for a tried-n-true formula for doing this, so that the photo is centered, and the animation covers every square pixel of the photo. I'm sure you've already noticed--I'm no math wiz.
Again, all I want to be able to do is to center the [random] MOVEMENT of the clip inside of the mask, i.e., fix a center point. BTW, the photo is a MC, inside the MC containing the mask.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
James
He is risen!!!

I have read some tutorials on how to import the layers of photoshop to flash but I am not sure about the motion tweening. and I also need help with my navigation bar I would like for one to click on it a topic and the info pops into my content box (if you see the pdf you know what I am talking about) I will be deeply grateful if someone can assist me on this....I am a quick learner but I learn but example.....
Thanks again
MinDwella.....

Load Swf In A Corner
I can load external swfs no problem on to my main movie, but what if I want to load it in the right upper corner of my movie.
I can set the length to the right size but when I go to set the width the stage seems to move to the left. How can I load my swf to the upper right corner

Please Help €“ I've Designed Myself Into A Bit Of A Corner...
so i have this site that i'm very happy with – problem is, i want to be able to email clients a link to a specific part of the site (rather than simply dropping them off at the front door). now, i understand that there's a way to do this but i think it's a bit over my head... and that i may have needed to have built the site with a certain structure from the start.
a good workaround, i thought, would be to put the swf in question in its own html file and link right to that. works like a charm. problem is that, when i do that, i lose a feature i like a lot – namely, the fact that i use javascript to change the color background of the html page to match the particular section.
SO - i would either like to find a way to link to a particular place in my flash movie (preferably a way that doesn't involve rebuilding the whole site!) or find a way to use my quick and dirty solution and still retain the color change aspect.
this will all make a lot more sense when you visit the link: www.quintandquint.com
thanks in advance for any direction you might be able to provide!
