Actionscript animation with easing

Hi,
i need to create a var that contains animation instructions
that can be called up and applied to a movie clip when a button is
pressed.
At the moment i have a movieclip called 'mover' that moves
down 54 px when a button is pressed (see below command), but i need
it to animate 54px in 1 second with +100 easing, i have had a
search on the web but it is not entirely clear how to apply
actionscripted animation.
on (release){
mover._y += 54;
Cheers for any help.
Rob.

try the Tween class;
i have not much experience with this but maybe this is
usefull..

Animation with actionscript

I have been looking at the nikeplus.com navigation bar at the
bottom of the page and was wondering if anyone had insight on how
to begin creating something like that. Specifically, the
actionscript animated boxes rising on mouse over and lowering on
rollout. I have a been able to create something similar using
timeline tweens for rollover and rollout but the menus get stuck in
the up position every now and then if i quickly move the mouse
away.
Any insight or examples will be greatly appreciated!!

You'd want to use a tweening engine for those, either the
build in tween
class or something like Fuse - which is what I'd do it with.
Fuse makes this
kind of stuff real easy... (www.mosessupposes.com)

How do I get actionscript animation to video?

I have a flash movie with actionscript animation that I need
to convert to video. How can I do it? Every time export it to video
from Flash (8 pro) I get nothing but stills. I have a number of mx
transitions that would take forever to convert to timeline
animation. Please help.

You have the right idea. Since Flash seems to ignore AS
generated animation like interactivity, the only option left is to
record the screen while the animation is running. You can either go
hardware or software for this.
Software would be the most convenient, but I can't recommend
a specific screen capture utility for the Mac, as I'm on a PC.
However, if you go to versiontracker.com and search for OSX screen
capture utilities, you should find one. Also some other Mac users
may be able to help.
For software conversion, the general method is to get your
flash sized as close to the final video size on the screen. For DVD
this will be 720 x 480. If you can modify your Flash stage to be
this size, it will simplify the process, as many capture utilities
can capture from a window instead of the whole screen. Capture the
video at 30 frames per second, uncompressed. .It will be a large
file, but all the quality will be maintained at this step. If
"uncompressed" is not an option, choose the quicktime animation
compressor, as this will do a lossless RLE compression, and still
maintain the quality. Next you will have to transcode the video to
MPEG2 for DVD. Many of the burning and authoring packages can do
this. Or a video editing package should be able to do it, as well.
The free video package that comes with OSX (can't remember the
name, imovie maybe??) can export for DVD, also.
The other route is hardware: For this you will need an scan
converter and a recorder or camcorder with inputs. Many of the
miniDV cameras can take an analog or DV signal in and convert to
MiniDV on to tape. Many low cost encoders have come on the market
to allow powerpoint or games to be displayed on a standard TV. And
many of them allow you to pan, zoom and center the image. The
general method is to size your desktop for the max resolution of
the encoder, usually xga (1024 x 768). Size your Flash as big as
possible on the screen. Plug your Mac video out into the encoder.
Plug your Mac monitor into the encoder (to pass the signal back to
the monitor so you can see it). Plug the encoder into the inputs of
your recorder or camcorder. Play the animation and start recording.
Then use your firewire to capture the video back into the computer
as a DV file. Convert to MPEG2 as described above.
Here is a link to a cheap scan converter at buy dot come as
an example.
http://www.buy.com/prod/startech-com-vga-to-ntsc-pal-pc-to-tv-video-converter/q/loc/101/10 313177.html
Another place to check for a scan converter is
bhphotovideo.com. They have a lot of video stuff for Mac.
Sounds complicated, but Flash is not really made for this, so
you have to "improvise" I have used both hardware and software to
convert both Flash and Shockwave animations to from the PC to DVD,
so it is possible to get good results. Hope this helps.

I need help with animation with progress bar.

Hi,
I need some help with creating something similar to this site (window opening animation with scrub bar):

I'm kinda new to flash and all so some tutorials for such thing would be helpful.
Thanks in advance

What this will involve is a movieclip/timeline containing images showing the sequence of the motion (like the frames of a movie film) and a Slider component that changes the frame of that movieclip/timeline based on its position.
Here is a link to an Actionscript 3 sample file that demonstrates a Slider providing the control of the timeline...
http://www.nedwebs.com/Flash/AS3_Slider.fla
You could edit the looks of the Slider component if you like by doubleclicking it and the inner parts you want to modify, or you could create one of your own if you have enough know-how to code it to work.

Creating animations with transparent backgrounds?

I'm running into some problems when using After Effects to create animations with transparent backgrounds for Keynote...
I use animated gifs and short quicktime movies with uniform backgrounds as source files, use color keying to take out the backgrounds, preview them to see if they look OK, render the results as RGB+alpha, and... they don't show up as transparent in Keynote. They work in Powerpoint, however. I've tried outputting as .mov, as .gif, as premultiplied vs straight alpha... no joy. Can someone explain (or point me to an explanation) of how Keynote differs from other programs in its handling of transparency? What am I missing?

Using a TYPE_INT_ARGB BufferedImage worked beautifully. I had played around with Image for hours, but it never occurred to me that BufferedImage would be needed. :)
many, many thanks,
Steven

How do i create an animation with one frame for each layer?

I have 76 sequential images that i've loaded as layers using bridge, then aligned using photoshop.
I would now like to create a 76 frame animation with one animation frame for each layer
(the layers are in sequential order).
is there an easy way to do this
or do i have to create 76 frames (can duplicate multiple to speed it up)
then set layer visibility for each frame?
thanks

Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

HT4245 i use a macbook pro which came with facetime i have an iphone 4S as well. whenever i use the wireless on my iphone i can facetime with ease however when i use the same wireless for my mac to facetime the call always gets disconnected.

To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number. Since you can't make calls on the Mac.

Troubles importing Flash 10 Animation with 3D Transform

I am looking for any workaround/experiences for importing a Flash 10 animation with 3D transforms. Currently, doing this will wig out Captivate 4 and break the embedded animation in all sorts of ways. AS3 support in Captivate is turned on and the same animation will load and play correctly if the 3D transform is removed. All other Flash 10/AS3 possibilites work including motiosn graphs and filters.
I find the 3D transform option of Flash CS4 to be one of the most powerful features ever introduced in Flash and would allow some incredible breakthrough design possibilities for my Captivate projects, if it would just support it! Any experiences with this issue welcomed. A bug report has been submitted also, but looking for a quicker remedy.

Problem Resolved!
I got this tip from Vikram (Adobe Support)
1. Open your project having Flash Player 10 animations involving 3D transforms.
2. Click the Edit menu and select Preferences.
3. Select "Publish settings" under the "Project" section.
4. Check "Animations" option under the "Externalize resources" section.
5. Press OK.
6. Now click the publish button.
7. In the publish dialog, select Flash Player 10 from the "Flash Player version:" drop down.
8. Click publish.
(F4 preview may not work, so use preview in browser)
Also, you may need to be wary of embedded scripted symbols as they may loose reference to the parent symbol after being embedded in yoru your CP4 project containing 3D transforms. My advice here is to try to script using as much object oriented js as possible in the main timeframe.
I am using a combination of localConnect and ExternalInterface functions to control the 3D animation from captivate quiz buttons. This process adds a whole new level of interactivity and visual interest to your captivates!

How to control animation with touch

Hello! I need some help with controlling animations with touch. I am building a fake app and need to 'unlock' an iphone (slide an arrow along a track and then have it fade into another page). I have been using http://forums.adobe.com/message/4865693 that thread. The prototype link listed there is similar to waht I need to recreate, but I think I need an 'on touch' actino instead of a mousemove one.
http://assets.ordienetworks.com.s3.amazonaws.com/the_occasional/checkerPro/checkerPro.html
That is a link to the Edge file I have been working on, using the info in the thread above. It is broken at the moment, and I am terrible with javascript and have no idea how to move forward. I have figured that I'll need an 'on touch' action instead of the mouseover one, but I'm not sure how to build it.
If there is a working example of this on a different thread that I've missed I'd love a link as well!!
Thank you!!

Hi, akall-
There are a number of touch events that you can use to accomplish what you want. You can try using the touchmove event instead of the mousemove event, and stick your code in there.
Hope that helps,

4.7 actionscript project with two .as files

hi,
Using FB 4.7 to make actionscript project with two .as file: Main.as and GFX.as. There are variable in GFX that Main cannot access. WHat do I need to do to the GFX.as file to make the variables it declares readable by Main.as?
Thanks
GReg

Reason 1:
put public before var . Example: public var foo:Number
Reason 2:
the variable that you can't load in Main.as should be inside function GFX() body. Example:
package {
     import flash.display.MovieClip
     public class GFX
          public function GFX()
               public var foo:Number // Put your variables here that can be load by another class
          function anotherFunction(parameters:Number) // Another function starts here
               foo = parameters
Reason 3:
In Main.as, put import GFX after package {

Flash animation with stream sound not playing in mac

Dear all,
I have made a 5 min animation with stream sound. Its playing perfectly in PC. But in mac, its not playing. Stream sound starts from frame 60. So mac plays the swf plays till 60 frame, after that it pauses. I tried importing different sound format (wav, aif, mp3) and tried with all sound export setting but the problem remain same; its playing only till 60. When i removed the sound, it played till end. Even with event sound, it plays till end. But with stream sound, the problem. The problem is only in mac; in pc its perfect.
I am using VMware Mac OS x leopard in window xp for testing purpose. I tested it in laptop with mac; but the problem is same. What could be the solution?
Thanks in advance. Waiting for solution.

Dear all, I solved the problem myself. The problem was with the sound driver of mac. After installing sound driver, the problem is gone. Bhushan
