Flash :: Need/how To - Elastic Nav

Draggable Elastic MC, Isnt That Elastic
i have an MC (hand) that ive made to be draggable. once the hand is released it should return to its original position....but of course, it doesnt.
the code is a slight variation of some i found a while back and have kept in a folder.

first frame on code layer in main timeline

ActionScript Code:
hand.elasticPos = function(targetX, targetY, accel, convert) { tellTarget (this) { xPos = xPos * accel + (targetX - _x) * convert; yPos = ypos * accel + (targetY - _y) * convert; _x += xPos; _y += yPos; }};

on the 'hand' MC

ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (load) { x = _root.hand._x; y = _root.hand._y;}onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (!pressed) { elasticPos(x, y, .9, .5); // elasticPos( targetX, targetY, accel, convert); }}

and finally inside the hand MC is a button for draggable reasons, on which is..

ActionScript Code:
on (press) { //ignore this stuff... _root.LEN.gotoAndStop("LEP"); _root.REN.gotoAndStop("REP"); _root.LEB.gotoAndStop("LEBP"); _root.MN.gotoAndStop("MP"); // end of ignore this.startDrag(); pressed = true;}on (release, releaseOutside) { this.stopDrag(); //ignore this stuff... _root.LEN.gotoAndStop("LEN"); _root.REN.gotoAndStop("REN"); _root.LEB.gotoAndPlay("LEBN"); _root.MN.gotoAndStop("MN"); //end pressed = false; }

yeh. it doesnt work.
any help would be fantastic
its probably something blindinly obvious but ive been messing with actionscript all day and its all starting to blur...

ive included the original file

Need/how To - Elastic Nav
I am designing my site using a vertical primary nav (see attached jpeg).

Straight forward it seems, but I want it to have an elastic element to it like the ones in the following link:

http://www.flashcomponents.com/detai...f&id=444&link=

Mine would probably be the 'Vertical Sample 1'

Can anyone provide me with an FLA or tell me exactly how I need to do it.

Thanks.

Elastic Box
Hi

I have seen this animation trick a couple of times now.. what it is, is a box - usually just an outline that expands form a small box to a large one. When it gets to its full size it retracts and then expands like its elasticated. Know what I mean? How is this done? There must be some script for it right?

Can you help?

Thanks

Elastic Box
I know this is probably easy but does anyone know how to do a elastic effect where a box enlarges to a certain height like 640 by 480 but instead of just enlarging to that size it bounces back a little before it gets there, like a rubber effect, or like a magnify effect, its hard to explain, I hope someone here understands me. Thanks!

Elastic 3D?
Hi all,

I'm looking to create a simple fun element in Flash that is similar to this, but is also elastic and you can drag each sphere and when you let it go, it elasticises back to into position.

I'm sure I've seen a tutorial for this around, but can anyone tell me where it is or how this can be done?

Thanks.

[AS] Elastic
Last edited by abgen : 2006-07-20 at 02:12.

As I build up to a general purpose 2D engine, I've decided to do elasticity. I might make collisions plastic at some point, and I will be doing some nifty collision detection as part of my PhD (probably)... till then, here's the code for some simple elasticity:

*EDIT*

Removed the code and placed it in downloadable form: http://www.anygivenfriday.com/downloads/elastic.zip

Again you can see the results at: http://www.anygivenfriday.com/elastic/

Elastic Script Help
I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction for some kind of tutorial for an elastic script menu.
The only site examples of what I want to do that I know of are http://www.tomato.co.uk & http://www.chdatlanta.com

I think an online magazine used the idea before, but I don't remember what the URL is.

Any help appreciated.

Elastic Menu
I have a menu which uses the math elasticity actionscript (for lack of a better description). The menu works fine except I cannot get the options to stay down to click on. My main timeline has a button with the following actionscript:
on (rollOver) {
_root.menu._visible = !_root.menu._visible;_root.menu._y += _root.dy;
}
on (rollOut) {
_root.menu._visible = 0;
}

This same frame has the following actionscript:
// Spring constant
spring = .80;
// Damping constant
damp = 0.9;
// Bump displacement
dx = 100;
dy = 100;
// velocity multiplyer
_root.menu._visible = 0;
stop ();

This goes to the mc called menu which bounces and springs on mouseover. If I take out the on rollOut in the button on the main timeline, the menu stays down of course, but won't go back up when you roll off the menu.

Does anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance for your help.

Spring/elastic
hi all

wondering if anyone knows of a tutorial that discusses spring and elasticity?

the look i am eventually going for is to have the user mouse over the object and it will bounce a little. Not a heavy bounce because it is a bubble, so it needs to be bubble like. I have been going through the fla files here but i am having trouble understanding them. Anyone know of a good tut?

much appreciated for any info thanks.

How Do I Get An Elastic Bounce?
This might be a silly question: but, how do I get an elastic bounce?

I've seen it on many sites: you click on something, say for example, the object will bounce to and forth and come to rest. This all happening in half a second.

I could attempt to achieve a bounce with some tweening.
But, all the examples I've seen, seem to have a 'natural' elastic bounce. It's something that I can't create with a simple teen.

Does ANYONE know what I'm taking about?

Any help/pointers would be really appreciated.

Thanks.

I know this type of effect was kinda' trendy over the last couple of years but I'm still trying to find good examples of how it's done-- especially using F5 or FMX code and functions (vs. F4).

Here's the type of effect I'm looking for:

See the bouncing, elastic nav section.

Any sample code like that would be greatly appreciated.

Elastic Formulae
I'm using flash 5.

I've been messing around with movings objects using:

_x-=100;
_x*=0.8;
_x+=100;
[this gives a deceleration kind of effect]

My question is does anyone knows the script/equations/calculation for an elastic kind of effect. I've been working for about 4 hours, and i can't figure it out. I've been using excel to try to work it out, but i still get nowhere.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I was wondering if anyone here knows how to have it wobble or move like (the word I'm thinking of is) elastic when it gets there.

If you have no idea what I just asked but would like to help please tell me

. . .add Elastic Bounce
Hello,
I'm trying to add an elastic feel to a MC that
grows when the Hit Test is activated, and shrinks back to it's original size when hit test is false. I'm using this code below which works perfectly, but I can't figure out how to add a bouncy elastic feel to it when it grows and shrinks back.

// control position of object
onClipEvent (load) {
ease = 5;
xmove = _x;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x += (xmove-_x)/ease;
}
// control scale of object
onClipEvent (load) {
scaleease = 5;
xscale = _xscale;
yscale = _yscale;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_yscale += (yscale-_yscale)/scaleease;
_xscale += (xscale-_xscale)/scaleease;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
_root.nav01.xscale = 1200;
_root.nav01.yscale = 7000;
} else {
_root.nav01.xscale = 100;
_root.nav01.yscale = 100;

Elastic Drop
Hi there.

I have several buttons on the stage and I wish to make them drop from the top to their final position near the bottom. I can do this easily with a tween, but I want it to be more like the elastic ones you see on other sites - so it doesn't look like a powerpoint presentation!

Any ideas? This may just be an animation question - or does this effect need to be done with actionscript?
