Elastic Button Effect
Hello all,
I have been trying to come up with a way to create an elastic button that only expands and retracts with a bouncy effect in place. I don't want to create the actionscript on the button as I have seen several examples provided via Flash Kit. How do I apply the elastic.as that is provided by Flash MX 2004 or even create a unique class all its own to import into my flash document? I am relatively new to the OOP concepts and classes. Thanks for your input!
Elastic Button Effect
hi,
I wanna have the same elastic effect as the buttons of blink182.com. It seems like animated buttons, but there definitely seems to be some actionscript involved, since the button still moves when you rollover a different button. I need help with this.
thanks kirupaville

AttachMovie Movie Clip Needs A Button Instance
Newbie question - I have 2 frames in the timeline. On frame 1 there is a button instance of a movie clip which on release goes to frame 2 - works fine.
On frame 2, I am using attachMovie to load a movie clip button which loads fine - problem is since it's loaded at runtime and not on the stage, it doesn't have a button instance applied to it, so it doesn't know it is a button and will not work.
Anyone know if there's a way to tell the attached movie clip to be a button instance?
Here's my scripts:
// Frame 1
stop();
fr2.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay("frame2");
}
// Frame 2:
stop();
this.attachMovie("fr1_mc", fr1, 0, {_x:225, _y:74});
fr1.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay("frame1");
}
FLA attached...
thanks in advance!
Attachmovie Loads A Movie Clip With A Button That Doesn't Rollover
Hey all:
I am using an attachmovie to load a movie clip. The clip loads but the button inside of it no longer rolls over (with up/over/hit states). The whole movie clip triggers the hand cursors. I tried loading just that button with the attachmovie and it loads it but does not rollover either. I don't know if it's a hit state problem or if I am just missing something stupid here.
When I just place the movieclip on the stage right next to the attachmovie version, it works fine ...
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you,

Looking For An Elastic Effect
Can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to give an object an elastic effect when it moves onto the screen? Kind of like when you have a row of objects like a slide show and when you hit the next button the next slide scrolls in but it has a bounce to it? Is there an action script for that? or do you have to make that using tweens?
Thanks

Chain + Elastic Effect Please Help
Hy guys, I was trying to do something like the menu you'll find on:
http://www.metroid.com/prime/
I've downloaded a couple of movie from the site, and I came up with something (the file in attachment), now there're just a couple of thinks I don't understand. If I rollover on the bigger squares the lines will appear, if I start dragging any of three boxes they all move, but if I drag the boxes fast enough the lines won't match the center of the object.
Besides I'll like that the lines will appear one at the time, for istance if I roll on the red box it will linked but if I roll on the green one the lines must appear only on that and disapper from the other.
Hope I'm not asking too omuch

Anyway I Could Give This An Elastic Effect
Hi! I have this idea drawn up (see attachment) that I wanna use a navigation menu. I want to give it some sort of an elastic/ bounce back effect. I was going to have the circles and text be individual buttons but I kinda want it to move as a whole. So that when part of it is rolled over it will move but when its rolled off it will bounce back. Does anyone have any ideas that could point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!!
Elastic Effect And Tween
Hello,
I attached the .fla to make it easier to understand what I'm trying to do.
I have a movie clip that has script on it to give it the elastic effect. But I also want to put a motion tween on it. The tween works when I play it on the stage, but when i test the movie it stays still but the elastic effect still works. Is there a way to make this happen?
Thank for your help!

Elastic Effect?-- Mc's, Targets...
I have a main swf with 4 empty mc’s.
The 4 mc’s- top_mc, menu_mc, content_mc, bottom_mc.
The content_mc loads different swfs depending on what button(the swf in the menu_mc) the user presses
What I am trying to do is keep the content._mc and the bottom._mc in sync.
So say if a swf loads into content_mc that has a height of 200px the bottom will move accordingly with a nice elastic effect.

Elastic Effect On Movie
hey hey.
i was wondering if someone here could help show me how to do an elastic-like bounce and position for the text that springs up in the attached .SWF
i wanna make it look a lil more realistic. Or, have it come in fast then slow down. I would probably work with the EASE for that, but would I have to put the objects on a path for the EASE to work?
i'm still learning, so i appreciate any kind of help.
thanks, guys.

How To Smooth An Elastic Effect
I have a serie of movie clip parts from a menu. Each movie clip has an elastic effect on rollover with the following code.
it is ok but not smooth enough I wonder how I could smooth the effect. Is there a function for this ?
monClip.onRollOver = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._xscale >= 150) {
this._xscale = this._yscale = 150;
delete this.onEnterFrame;

Elastic Effect With Mouse Control
okay here is my situation:
I have these two doors masking an image. There is a gap between the doors where the viewer can see part of the image, the doors cover the remainder of the image. The movement of the doors is triggered by the movement of the mouse. I have managed to accomplish the elastic effect however I need the doors to stop moving at given points ( the perimeter of the image being masked), regardless of how far the mouse has gone to either the right or the left. I am only working with the X plane, horizontally. So as of right now the script below doesn't stop the doors at the edge of the image. Instead they keep following the mouse past the stopping points. Can anyone help me out with this situation?
on Frame 1:
preloader.
on Frame 2:
xcenter = 400;
elasticDoor = function () {
if (old<=_root.xcenter) {
tester = true;
_root.door1._x = _root.door1._x+((_root._xmouse-80)-_root.door1._x)/10;
_root.door2._x = _root.door2._x+((_root._xmouse+80)-_root.door2._x)/20;
} else if (old>=_root.xcenter) {

Sliding Menu Tutorial - Elastic Effect
Hi !
I have downloaded your tutorial and it works fine. Thank you, very useful.
At this moment when you click on a destination it's start very fast and ends very slowly.
How can I make the destination start slowly, goes faster and faster then finish slowly ?
I have also a little problem to determine the value with 21 pages instead of 4. In my movie the navigation bar is not the same that the sliding content.
Than you for your answer.

Convert Elastic / Bounce Effect To MX 2004 (Flash Player 7)
I am using an elastic effect to ease a MC back to its original position after a drag release, but the code I'm using doesn't work with Flash Player 7. I can't publish to Flash Player 6, because I'm using components that require 7.
Can someone please take a look at the code, and let me know what changes need to be made to get it to work with Flash Player 7? Thanks!
Code on main timeline frame:
Code:
Movieclip.prototype.elasticPos = function(targetX, targetY, accel, convert) {
tellTarget (this) {
xPos = xPos * accel + (targetX - _x) * convert;
yPos = ypos * accel + (targetY - _y) * convert;
_x += xPos;
_y += yPos;
}
};
Code on MC:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
x = this._x;
y = this._y;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (!pressed) {
elasticPos(x, y, .9, .5);
// elasticPos( targetX, targetY, accel, convert);
}
}
Code on button inside MC:
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag("");
dragging = true;
}
on (release, releaseOutside) {
stopDrag();
dragging = false;
}
Clip Button Effect Activating All Over Scene
Hi, I'm pretty new to this stuff. But my problem is that I have a movie clip, called.. teg01_1 and I have a button in that clip called txt_teg_hit1 .. my problem is that whenever i use that button to launch an external page, after i click it once, it keeps launching the page wherever else I click on the whole page (scene)..
The code I have for it is:
Code:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");
}
on (press) {
getURL(" javascript:Launch('build_cert.htm')");
}
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("s2");
}
It works just fine with the whole launching and it does the rollover animation. But for the life of me I cant figure out why its playing wherever I click.
I have several other instances of identical clips (all for different links), teg01_2 and txt_teg_hit2 etc. Now they don't seem to cause me the same problem, which ever one of the other links I click, it loads but if i click anywhere else it just loads the first teg01_1 again!
I'll upload the source, if anyone can help me please, would be greatly appreciated! This is a flash template I bought, I've got most of it working just fine and have learnt alot (thankfully not as noob as when i began LOL), but I'm stumped.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks alot!
[FMX] Navigation Help - Elastic Movie Clip (?)
I am interested in building a nav system like www.frontmedia.co.uk . I am a newbie at Flash. I was wondering if someone could break down how it is actually built.
Is it a movie clip that has an action script for the elasticity attached to it? Are the buttons within the movie clip controlling the movement? Both?
Sorry - I am not even sure where to start on this one...
Thanks in advance....

[F8] Movie Clip Button Click Effect? Urgent
I have tested this code (below) and it works as expected.
The code is attached to a frame where the MC sits on the main timeline.
Ref: MWC
Can you please advise how I can create a mouse click event that takes the Movie Clip to a different timeline event say to destination frame #65?
The idea is for the click to take the user through an animation starting at frame # 65and then a URL jump to another page at frame # 75 (I can mamage the URL jump part). I am trying to get the mouse click to start the animation first though.
Please note, I am using multiple buttons and would like the code references for multiple button references.
Thanks
Attach Code
button1.onEnterFrame = function() {
(fade) ? button1.nextFrame() : button1.prevFrame();
};
button1.onRollOver=function(){_root.fade = true;}
button1.onRollOut=function(){_root.fade = false;}

Thx.

Elastic Button Issue
Ok, here is the deal:
this fla that i have attached works only in Flash 5 but not in Flash 6. In flash 6, every button bounces when one is rolled over. I have tried MULTIPLE things to figure this out but to no avail. It would be awesome if anyone could shed some light on this problem.
Thanks again everyone.
