[F8] Word Animation?

Its easily done by motion tweening...but when you have 50+ words in each paragraph...well...UGH. does anyone know of any actionscript that would solve this problem of mine?

The Best Flash Animation Now Done By Hand Instead Of Tween/scripting?
I've noticed through use of an swf decompiler that some of the most fluid animation I'm seeing these days on the web is done by what appears to be frame-by-frame animation. People are creating really fluid stuff at 25 fps rates but they really aren't using the built-in tween controls of flash . . it looks like they intially use it and then break each frame down to a keyframe.

Does this make sense? I've posted similar observations before yet nobody has responded. I'm curious to know and I'm sure it would be an interesting topic to discuss.

I am looking for some basic tutorial/fla file for an animation per letter/word.
Some simple fade in will work at this time.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

I want to create some more advanced animation after the basics.

Thx

Rotate Hour Hand In Relation To Minute Hand
i am trying to make a tell the time learning aid

i want the user to click on the minute hand of an analogue clock and turn the minute hand ... got that far ... and then move the hour hand in relation to the minute hand.... ugh !!!stuck here

code so far


Quote:




minuteHand_mc.onPress=function () {
// stop analogue clock running off the computer
delete clock_mc.onEnterFrame;
// call function to turn minute hand
pressing = true;
spin();
}




now the function that turns the minute hand


Code:
function spin() {
minuteHand_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (pressing) {
myRadians = Math.atan2((_ymouse-minuteHand_mc._y), (_xmouse-minuteHand_mc._x));
mydegrees = Math.round(myRadians*180/Math.PI);
minuteHand_mc._rotation = mydegrees+90;
minutes = minuteHand_mc._rotation/6;
// move hour hand
// keep hour hand in the right place
var hourAngle:Number = (360*hour/12)+((360*minutes/60)*(1/12));
hourHand_mc._rotation = hourAngle;

}
};
}
i feel the hour hand position should be something like

minuteHand_mc._rotation*(1/12) ... but of course as soon the minute hand goes past the 6 (ie 30 mins) the the minuteHand_mc._rotation goes 180 then -179

can't get my head round this and cant get my head how to update the hours or decrease the hours if the minute goes backwards or forwards over the 12 ... i am normally ok on the maths bit but ugh

if anyone can help monumentally grateful

SWF Optimization Debate: Hand-Drawn Or Hand-Coded?
I was curious if anyone knew a definitive answer or examples of proof that the dynamic drawing of movieclips (using the Drawing API) is more effecient (in terms of .SWF optimization and playback) than hand-drawn movieclips stashed in the Library or vice versa.

I have this hardwiring in my brain that sides with the former of the movieclip creation methods. I tend to find myself writing the code to draw these shapes I require, adding filters and other details through code rather than drawing them.

There is an obvious advantage to this method when it comes to variable sizes of the movieclip that are required (example: a rectangle that is the base of the website with a margin of 10 on all sizes is dependent on the resolution of the user (Stage.width and Stage.height are different by user and browser)). The downside of course is that even the drawing of a simple rectangle is an additional eight to ten lines of code, which can clutter an external ActionScript exceedingly quickly.

I'm just curious of what others think of both methods, or if there is publish information on which is better for .SWF optimization.

Can This Be Re-written?
Hi,

I was wondering if you knew if this can be re-written?

I use XML which is:

PHP Code:



var x:XML = new XML();
x.ignoreWhite = true;

var urls:Array = new Array();
var captions:Array = new Array();
var whoIsOn:Number = 0;

x.onLoad = function(success) {
    var number:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
    for(i=0;i<number.length;i++) {
        urls.push(number[i].attributes.url);
        captions.push(number[i].attributes.caption);
        trace(urls[i]);
        trace(captions[i]);
        mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc_"+i, i);

    }
     
        whoIsOn = 0;  
    Download_On_Itunes.caption.text = captions[0];
    //    mc.attachMovie("my_mc"+((i%12)+1),"urls"+([i]+1),1);
  

}




But this is what I want to re-write. I'm having problems getting the images which are pushed here

PHP Code:



urls.push(number[i].attributes.url);




To get inside my my_mc.


PHP Code:



mc.attachMovie("my_mc"+((i%12)+1),"urls"+([i]+1),1);




Can anyone tell me what I can do?
Thanks

Could This Be Written More Efficiently?
hi there all you scripting masters! ok so I've got this piece of AS that I'm sure can be much simpler than what I've got. Firstly I'll explain what it does:
I have a number of thumbnails that are movie clips named "afpthumb, dtsthumb, etc etc etc" - then some more movieclips that are the highlights for these thumbs. So when you mouse over the thumbs, the highlights turn on (named afphigh, dtshigh etc etc etc). Then if a user clicks on a thumbnail another movieclip appears, named, afpblog, dtsblog. Does that make sense??? Also, if a thumbnail is click, its highlight stays on until another thumb is clicked.



Code:
activetvc = none

afpthumb.onRelease = function () {
if (activetvc != afpblog) {
activetvc.gotoAndPlay(13)
afpblog.gotoAndPlay(2)
activehigh._alpha = 0

activetvc = afpblog
activehigh = afphigh
}
}

dtsthumb.onRelease = function () {
if (activetvc != dtsblog) {
activetvc.gotoAndPlay(13)
dtsblog.gotoAndPlay(2);
activehigh._alpha = 0

activetvc = dtsblog
activehigh = dtshigh
}

}

afpthumb.onRollOver = function () {
afphigh._alpha = 100
}

afpthumb.onRollOut = function () {
if (activetvc != afpblog) {
afphigh._alpha = 0
}
}

dtsthumb.onRollOver = function () {
dtshigh._alpha = 100
}

dtsthumb.onRollOut = function () {
if (activetvc != dtsblog) {
dtshigh._alpha = 0
}
}
this way is working for me, but there are many more thumbnails to apply it to.

if you go to www.bearcage.com.au/test/ and then go to the TVC section you can see what I'm trying to do.

Thanks!

Please, Help Me With The Weirdest Script I've Ever Written
Please, help me with the weirdest script I've ever written!!!
The goal:
I have a grid, with 7 positions at X and Y. This make 49 positions total, right?
So, I want to place 49 instances of someMC, one in each position. Of course, I cant repeat them....
Some considerations:
X = new Array(7);//the number of positions for X and Y
Y = new Array(7);
occupied = new Array(X.length*Y.length); //the amount of positions for occupied
X[0] = 40; //the initial X and Y positions, has to be like this
Y[0] = 40;
for (i=1; i<=6; i++) { //the others are plus 80:
X[i] = X[i-1]+80;
Y[i] = Y[i-1]+80;
}
for (i=0; i<=6; i++) { //store the pairs like: 40e40, 40e120,40e200 etc, total 49 iterations
for (z=0; z<=6; z++) {
occupied.push(X[i]+"e"+Y[z]);
}
}
The scrIPtcH:
for (i=0; i<=49; i++) {
attachMovie("someMC", i, i);
entraX = X[random(X.length)];//X[0] is 40, remember?
entraY = Y[random(Y.length)];
for (z=0; z<=occupied.length; z++) { //test for all the occupieds
if (entraX+"e"+entraY == occupied[z]) {
setProperty(i, _x, entraX);
setProperty(i, _y, entraY);
occupied.splice(z, 1); //if they are equal, I take this value of occupied
}
}
}


Of course this is not working....

AIR Problems With Written As3 Calendar
Hi there,

i am currently writing an event calendar in AIR, completely done in As3. Included in this program is a As3 Calendar which is basically a enhanced version of this one here: http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=281250
i have changed some things but not too much...

Now the calendar with all his functions shows up pretty nice when i Test the Movie directly in Flash, but when i export the whole thing to AIR and install it, the calendar is gone... below is the script which loads the calendar.

Is there anything in AIR to look at or to write different?! Maybe AIR cant handle the date() thing?

The funny thing is that everything works perfect in Flash but ONLY the Calendar is missing in AIR...

Anybody has a solution?!


Code:

Form Written By Thomas Watson
I use form written by Thomas Watson in a new designed website. I encountered an error which I am not able to solve even few hours effort has been thrown. The effort, however, is in vain.

If the swf form is individually used in an pop up html, i don't have any problem in sending it.
http://www.baptain.com/appointmentcgi1.html

However, if I'm using it through load movie on level 1, the error box showing 'a text field is not filled' will kept popped up, even all the text field has been filled. Below is the url
http://www.baptain.com --> ENTER --> appointment

would appreciate if any of the expert around can help me solving this problem. Thanks a million

Written In An External File With No Php And No Sharedobject
Hi,

I need too use persistant variables to store user's preferences.

The swf is basically an advanced slide show for photographers to show their work to their clients.

The variables have to be received and posted from the same swf on a local disc.
Then, when user has set up his preferences on local, he copy the swf file on a cd.

First I used a txt file to store the variables.
Problems:

- do not know how to write or change the txt file from the swf.
- txt file is visible and external people can modify the swf behavior by changing the txt file.

Then I used the sharedobject wich solved those two problems but came out a new problem :

- When I copy the swf to the cd, sharedobject does not "follow" because it's not the same domain...

Arghhh... to make it short :

Considering those, how to use persistant variables on local and then copy evrything to a cd and make it work too?

Thanks

AttachMovie Over Written Current Mc Content
Not sure were i am going wrong. Hopfully someone can help.

I am using Flash 8 new upload feature(works fine)
The problem starts when i load the image back into flash.

Here is the function that i am using to load the image back in.
code:
function downloadImage (event:Object):Void {
//Generate random number so no 2 instances have the same name.
randNum = random (100);
trace ("random number=" + randNum);
imgHolder.attachMovie ("shootsHolder", "sHolder" + randNum, imgHolder.getNextHighestDepth (), {_x:0, _y:imgHolder._height + 1});
imgHolder["sHolder" + randNum].imagePane.loadMovie ( imageFile.name);
addMore._visible = 1;
upper.loadBar._xscale = 0;
upper.statusArea.text = "";
upper._visible = 0;
}

The first download of the image works but when i upload another image the first image that was downloaded into "imgHolder" is cleared. i hope that makes sense.

Anyone.

Thanks
Paul

Need An Audio Recorder Written In Flash
Need an audio recorder written in flash.

Format isn't an issue, just as long as I can re-play it in a flash player.

Features include:
-Record button (to start recording)
-Stop button (to stop and save your recording to a file in a specified repository on the server).

Please let me know if you have any answers & thanks for looking...

Code Hints For Own Written Classes?
I was wondering if there is someway to get code-hints from your own classes. For example MyClass:


Code:
class MyClass
var id:Number;
var word:String;

function MyClass(thisId:Number, thisWord:String):Void{
id = thisId;
word = thisWord;
}

function setWord(thisWord:String):Void{
word = thisWord();
}
}
When working in any AS edit window I would much like to have code hints for this class. Like this:


Code:
foo = new MyClass(1,"name");
foo.[codehint here]
Does anyone know if this is possible? I know it is possible to edit the codehint XML, but that is not quite what i'm looking for...

Well Written Tutorials Kirupa... Hooray...
i've just completed the 'add thumbnails' tutorial. and i have to say, it is one the best tutorials i have come across in my feverish exploration of the net to find what i needed...

i'm building the gallery into a portfolio....
my plan was to reload the xml actionscript into each new frame on the main timeline to create new galleries.

but i'm finding that the old actionscript doesn't clear despite changing the name of the xml file loaded.

have tried renaming etc. how would i clear previous frames to allow the new actionscript to work on each new page?

i realise this is probably an incredibly easy thing to do... i feel a bit like the village idiot...
can anyone help me?

IE Installs Components On Javascript Written Object Tag
I am linking via html to new window in a frameset with no scrollbars and with zero and 100 percent columns so I can put the swf right to the page edge in fullscreen.

The swf page then uses javascript to read the screen res and scale the swf accordingly so it goes full size at 1024 by 768 or 800 by 600 or whatever. It works okay but it takes a few seconds for the swf to appear fullscreen because the browser (IE6) says it is 'installing the components' that is, the flash player in the status bar. Why is this? It can't be my browser coz' it loads fine in the normal object/embed tag. Here is the javascript code that writes the problematic object tag. Any one any ideas?

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

// the variables
flName = "scale.swf";
flHeight = '"'+ screen.Height +'"';
flWidth = '"'+ screen.Width + '"';



document.write(
"<OBJECT"
+ "CLASSID=clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
+ "WIDTH="+flWidth
+ "HEIGHT="+flHeight
+ "CODEBASE='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0'>"
+ "<PARAM NAME=MOVIE VALUE=" + flName + ">"
+ "<PARAM NAME=PLAY VALUE=true>"
+ "<PARAM NAME=LOOP VALUE=false>"
+ "<PARAM NAME=QUALITY VALUE=high>"
+ "<PARAM NAME=MENU VALUE=false>"
+ "<EMBED"
+ " SRC=" +flName
+ " WIDTH="+flWidth
+ " HEIGHT="+flHeight
+ " PLAY=true"
+ " LOOP=false"
+ " QUALITY=high"
+ " MENU=false"
+ " TYPE=application/x-shockwave-flash"
+ "PLUGINSPAGE='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'>"

);

Input Fields Written To Txt File (Shout Box)
I'll try to make this as least wordy as possible...

I have three input fields in a Flash movie: Name, Email, and Comment. The user fills in all three fields, and clicks a "submit" button. I want to have all of that information written to a txt file in the following format:

Code:
<b><a href="mailto:<email_field>"><name_field></a></b><br><comment_field><br><br>
If another visitor fills in the information and submits it, I would like the same format above to be added to the TOP of txt file, making it like this:

Code:
<b><a href="mailto:<email_field_newest>"><name_field_newest></a></b><br><comment_field_newest><br><br>
...
<b><a href="mailto:<email_field_oldest>"><name_field_oldest></a></b><br><comment_field_oldest><br><br>
So the newest entry is on top and it goes down to the oldest at the bottom.

Whew, now, how in the world would I accomplish this? Would it be through an external PHP script or something? I know nothing about that... I'd really appreciate some help. Thanks in advance!
