Component and tween class help
Hi All,
I have a simple component which is dynamically added to a
movieClip (‘parent_mc’) and is then made a listener of
that movieClip. I’m creating 5 different component instances
and each one is given a unique ‘id_number’. The
component uses a tween calss function for moving to a different x
position. The ‘parent_mc’ broadcasts a message
(this.broadcastMessage("moveComp", compId, newX); and only the
component with the matching id moves to the new position.
Everything works as expected but the problem I’m having
is trying to call a function to let the 'parent_mc' know when the
tween has finished. Can anyone help??
Thanks,
Ty
This is a cut down of the components script.
You didn't explain the 'obj' bit and how I define it.
Anyway, I have done a work around by placing a movieClip in
the component to handle the tween and call the moveFinished
function in the component when it's done.
There must be a way to call the same moveFinished function
from within the moveComp.myTweenX.onMotionFinished function.
Thanks for the responses.
Ty
The movieClip code is this:

I could really use some help. I'm using AS 3 and am creating a simple vertical menu where 6 buttons reside. When any of the buttons is clicked it takes you to specific frame label. On each frame label I have some actionscript that once arrived at will animate a small triangle along the y axis to rest next to the button the user has just clicked. I am trying to use the Tween Class to aminate the small triangle. Here is what I have so far:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var arrowTween:Tween = new Tween(arrow_mc, "y", Regular.easeOut, 20, 80, 2, true);
The var created assigns the triangle a new end position. Here's where I need help. In the example above the 20 is the starting position and what I need is something that says whatever the current (this) position value is move to the desired end position value, which is 80 in the example.
I'm up late trying to figure this one out. Any help or ideas to lead me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.Craig,
Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it. However, I'm still having a bit of trouble. When I put in "current arrow_mc" I get syntax errors in the compiler errors box.
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before arrow_mc.
Here is the code I have put in:
stop();
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var arrowTween:Tween = new Tween(arrow_mc, "y", Elastic.easeOut, current arrow_mc.y, 39.5, 1, true);
Any ideas?

Hi everyone. I'm doing a website and I'm having trouble with
something. I have a movieclip that I want to animate using the
tween class. however, I want thetween to occur once the frame that
the code is on loads. This is a problem because I can't use
onEnterFrame because it will play thetween continuously. I need it
to play oncethe frame loads and only once. I tried using the
movieclip.onLoad function but it's not working for me. What am I
doing wrong? Here is the code that I'm using...If the code is in an externally loaded Movie you need to
determine when the frame is available and the general way to go is
using the MovieClipLoader class.
If the code is in a already loaded movie then follow
naomind's recommendation -

sorry for my bad english....Thanks jtahlborn for this fast reply.
Unfortunately it doesn't work, if I change the code of WebServiceBean to the following:
@Stateless
public class WebServiceBean
@EJB
ControllerBean controller;
@EJB
JPAServiceLocal jpa;
}Error message:
javax.naming.NamingException: Error occurs while the EJB Object Factory trying to resolve JNDI reference Reference Class Name: com.x.y.z.ControllerBean
Do I have to define any parameter with the @EJB annotation, like name or bean-name or put something into ejb-jar.xml?
The second idea is not an option for me, I don't wanna make ControllerBean a POJO

Tween Class Easing AS modification help.
hi guys im new here in the forums, ive been searching around about tween class easing in as2 and ive found this great tutorial http://www.republicofcode.com/tutori...enclasseasing/
i need a help though, im not really a actionscript programmer, but i wanted to modify this code:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){
how would i modify the code so my objects not only goes on a straight line(_x like in the code from 0x to 400x),
what if i wanted a diagonal direction, it will start in x and ends in y?
hope you could show me how its done thanks in advance!!to tween along a diagonal, tween both the _x and _y properties at the same time:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
var myVertiTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_y",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){ }
if you want to tween the _x and then tween the _y, use:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
var myVertiTween:Tween
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){
myVertiTween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_y",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true); -
HELP PLZ!! Array Button Menu that fades in/out content with Tweener or Tween Class...!!!
OK.
So I've been trying the last couple of days to make 2 different codes i had into one...
The first on is using the Tweener class and everytime that I press a button it fades out the loaded content of the previous selection, waits for it to finish and then loads the content of the button pressed. Everything works fine with this part.
The second code is the on that is using an Array to dynamicaly rollover, rollout and keep selected the buttons.
It was also changing the content of the mc that everything is loaded on but without this fancy fade in - fade out...!!
So i think its time for some code now...:
Here are 2 different approaches:
This is the code that uses the onMotionFinished of the Tween Class:
var groupinfo:Array = [ {mc:about, toload:"mcHome"},
{mc:service, toload:"mcService"},
{mc:contact, toload:"mcContact"}];
var activebtn:MovieClip;
var holder1:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("mcHome", "mcMain", 10);
holder1._x = 0;
holder1._y = 110;
function doClick() {
// \/THE PROBLEM IS FROM HERE\/
if (this != activebtn){
var mcTween:Tween = new Tween(mcMain, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 100, 0, 1, true);
mcTween.onMotionFinished = function() {
_root.holder1.attachMovie(this.p, "mcMain", 1);
var mcTween2:Tween = new Tween(mcMain, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, 10, true);
// /\UNTIL HERE/\
var prevbtn:MovieClip = activebtn;
activebtn = this;
this.gotoAndStop(FADEINSTOP);
prevbtn.onRollOut();
function init() {
for (var element in groupinfo) {
// btn is a pointer to one of the nav buttons
var btn:MovieClip = groupinfo[element].mc;
// have each button remember which library/mc it is supposed to load
btn.p = groupinfo[element].toload;
// assign functions to each event
btn.onRollOver = doRollOver;
btn.onRollOut = doRollOut;
btn.onRelease = doClick;
init();
And the Example:
The onMotionTween code works ok with the tweening but doesn't change the movieclip.
This is the code that uses the caurina Tweener Class with no onMotionFinished:
var groupinfo:Array = [{mc:about, toload:"mcHome"},
{mc:service, toload:"mcService"},
{mc:contact, toload:"mcContact"}];
var activebtn:MovieClip;
var holder1:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("mcHome", "mcMain", 10);
holder1._x = 0;
holder1._y = 110;
function doClick() {
// \/PROBLEM FROM HERE\/
if (this != activebtn) {
Tweener.addTween(mcMain,{_alpha:0, time:1, transition:"easeOutQuart"});
var holder2:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie(this.p, "mcMain2", 11);
holder2._alpha = 0;
holder2._x = 0;
holder2._y = 110;
Tweener.addTween(mcMain2,{_alpha:100, time:1, delay:1, transition:"easeOutQuart"});
mcMain = mcMain2;
// /\TO HERE!!!/\
var prevbtn:MovieClip = activebtn;
activebtn = this;
this.gotoAndStop(FADEINSTOP);
prevbtn.onRollOut();
function init() {
for (var element in groupinfo) {
// btn is a pointer to one of the nav buttons
var btn:MovieClip = groupinfo[element].mc;
// have each button remember which library/mc it is supposed to load
btn.p = groupinfo[element].toload;
// assign functions to each event
btn.onRollOver = doRollOver;
btn.onRollOut = doRollOut;
btn.onRelease = doClick;
init();
Other Example:
The Tweener code works perfectly this first time but the second time removes the conent and does just the fade in.
The code for the buton group i got it from here...
Please could someone help me with this thing!!
I think its a great piece of dynamic code if we can eventualy make it work properly!!
Thanksss!!!
Shorten the code... Left only the part that needs mod!!clbeech, Thank you but doesnt do anything either....!!It is a bit usefull but... !!
The problem is that the code cant give the "this.p" to the movieclip...
Here is the mess i've made with few changes from your part... and alot of treces to wich detected that the this.p is can't get in the onMotionFinished function...
its only the doClick function:
function doClick() {
trace ("---------vars after click----------")
trace ("activebtnStart "+ activebtn);
trace ("this.p OutPre: " + this.p);
if (this != activebtn){
trace ("mcMainAlphaBefore: " + mcMain._alpha);
trace ("mcMainBefore: " + mcMain);
var mcTween:Tween = new Tween(mcMain, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 100, 0, 1, true);
mcTween.onMotionFinished = function() {
holder["mcMain"].removeMovieClip();
// trace ("mcMainStart: " + mcMain);
// trace ("mcMain2Start: " + mcMain2);
// trace ("mcMainAlphaStart: " + mcMain._alpha);
// trace ("mcMain2AlphaStart: " + mcMain2._alpha);
trace ("this: " + this);
trace ("this.p Pre: " + this.p);
holder.attachMovie(btn.p, "mcMain", 1);
holder.alpha = 0;
trace ("this.p After: " + this.p);
// mcMain = mcMain2;
new Tween(mcMain, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, 10, true);
// mcMain._alpha = 100;
// trace ("mcMainEnd: " + mcMain);
// trace ("mcMain2End: " + mcMain2);
// trace ("mcMainAlphaEnd: " + mcMain._alpha);
// trace ("mcMain2AlphaStart: " + mcMain2._alpha);
trace ("this.p OutAfter: " + this.p);
var prevbtn:MovieClip = activebtn;
activebtn = this;
this.gotoAndStop(FADEINSTOP);
prevbtn.onRollOut();
trace ("this.p "+ this.p);
trace ("this "+ this);
trace ("prevbtn "+ prevbtn);
trace ("activebtn "+ activebtn);
Pfff.....
I think its best to Attach the .fla!!

flex/sdk/trunk/samples/explorer/explorer.xmlOne workaround is to turn off automation:
File-->Options, Advanced tab, General Section, uncheck "Enable Automation Events"
However, you will loose the ability to configure callouts, and all of the commands in the Process Engineering tab.
Another workaround is to change the loop number of the shape you are editing before changing its type. Then change the loop number back to the correct loop number.
This is another example of the pernicious philosophy of trying to help the user do what the programmers think the user is trying to do that started in Excel 2000 (where you can no longer tell excel that you want a scatter plot - it will force the plot
to be a line plot under certain circumstances).
I suppose another option would be to modify the master and swap the text and subtype shapes in the indicator to use the subtype property for the loop number and then use the text for the instrument type. I guess this is what MS was trying to implement, but
didn't explain it well enough to their programmers. -
Need help with AS 2 Tween class
Hi,
I'm using the tween class just fine, but I want my tween to
move on a curve.
I can't seem to figure out how to achievve this.
I get the math to do this sort of thing, and I think I could
manage it with
AS3, but the project requires the use of AS2. I'm having
issues
transitioning what I know to what I need.
Can anyone help??
Thanks,
KByou can use the tween class to update an object property and,
if you have a parametric equation for your curve, you can use your
tween's onMotionChanged event to update your object's _x and _y
properties. -

Dear all,
Call for answers and discussion!!!
1. Component has a clear seperation between the specification and implementation? I can't understand here.The interface define some operations,but eventually we need coding to realize it. Where is the speration?
A class also has methods and coding to realize it. But why we never say a class has a seperation between the specification and implementation?
2. Component has interface; Java has interface. Are they the same idea or different?
Call for answers.
Thanksdunno what your meaning of "general component" is, but the interface goes as follows
if you write code that calls methods in another class you MUST have a variable that is an instance of that class (except for some static and abstract classes that can return an instance, but lets not go that far yet)
consider though that you want 2 different classes (which dont share any usefull inheritance for what you want to do) to have some behaviour that is the same
the way you do this is by interfaces
you define the 2 classes to implement the interface you want, then when you can use the interface class name as the type of the variable you want to handle
example (not a great one but..)
2 classes Cat and Dog
and a Vector of Cats and Dogs (you dont know what order)
you could define Cat and Dog to implement an inteface called Speak with methods talk() and shout()
when you retrive an instance of Cat or Dog from the vector (in order to get it to talk) the you could write
Speak anAnimal=(Speak)vectorOfAnimals.elementAt(index);
anAnimal.shout();
not a great example since you could write a super class of Cat and Dog called Animal that has these methods
but consider if you mix up a few Computers in there
there are very few similarities between Animal, Cat and Dog that warant a super class to implement them. how ever you may well want a Computer to talk() -

Hello, I am and IIN Intitute of Integrative Nutrition in New York student. My iPAD 2 is part of my school material and was uploaded with all Videos and Audio classes for the whole program. I recently typed in my passwork incorrectly and disabled my iPad it is giving me the message " connect to i-tunes". I am afraid to loose my lectures.

If you do not have a backup you are going to lose everything on your iPad and even if you do have one, you may still be out of luck.
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
Read this very carefully before you proceed. Sometimes iTunes will allow you to restore the iPad without having to use recovery mode, but if you need to use recovery mode and don't have a backup, that is where you may have a problem.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If you need recovery mode ....
Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.
