Creating a 360 rotation menu

Hey guys
I have been making an intro and a rotatio menu. see
HERE
You will see the menu after the intro.
Well it works fine with only three menus ... but recently i
was asked to add two more and the way it was designed its quite
painfull to change it.
Is there a way to make this with AS. Any reference and help
welcome.
Good day

that looks like a bad attempt at a carousel effect:

I find that if you have multiple 3d object they must be merged into a single 3d layer their positions reset to align to the same axises then sized and positioned along them. The layer should then be able to be animated well around an axis like the y axis. Here a Sphere, Cylinder and ring. http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/McAssey-CC.mp4

Creating a rotating menu?

Hello,
I'm a Flash beginner and would like to create a rotating menu
in Flash for my website.
I mean a menu where the currently active option is
highlighted, and hovering your mouse up or down will make the menu
rotate in said direction and highlight the other options as they
move along.
Are there pre-made scripts for these kinds of effects? That
would be best as my knowledge of Flash is limited.
Many thanks!!

Hi
All you have to do is change the function that rotates on the
x axis to the y axis - viola vertical rotation
You'll find a far better one here -
gotoandlearn download and
watch the three Carousel Tutorials. You can modify as above, plus
you will learn how to code from a Pro.
Hope it helps

How do I create an interactive rotating model in Flash from a 3D model created in Maya?

Hi,
I have never used Flash before!
I have created a 3D model in Autodesk Maya and I would like to use it to create something a user can interact with i.e. rotate it or zoom in and out using a mouse. I have been told that if I create a 360 degrees rotation animation in Maya and render it into JPEGs I can then import them into Flash. The next part is where I need help! Is there a way of doing this?
Many thanks.

Whatever interaction you want to involve will dictate what you need to do internally to make the movieclip react to interaction. Being that you have never used Flash before, you need to learn how to implement event listeners, for either or both the mouse and the keyboard.
Your best bet at finding some help with learning about event listeners would probably be to search Google using terms like "AS3 MouseEvent tutorial".
As far as exporting goes, what you are most likely to end up doing is to publish an swf. As far as my experience goes, Flash automatically sets up your Publish Settings to create an swf and an html page to display it in ( including whatever supporting javascript files are needed). If you wish to tailor the Publish Settings to produce other outputs, or want to change aspects of the defaults, then you need to acxcess the PublishSettings in the same File options where you find the Import command. The Publish command is also located there.

Rotating Menu/Panels. How to stop them onRelease?

Hi all,
I got this script from a tutorial site (
http://www.actionscript.org/showMovie.php?id=1284).
It's a 3D rotating menu/panels, reacting to mouse movement. On
mouse click, it will expand to a certain size, but I can't stop the
rotation. How can I stop the rotation with the specified panel
facing front when mouse release, and return to rotating and its
original size upon second mouse click??
And, I notice it's a little buggy, the panel shink to a size
smaller than original size when you do a quick click while it's
still expanding. :S
I don't know how I can attach the codes here because all the
codes are all over the instance and frames. Perhaps you can check
out the original tutorial
http://www.actionscript.org/showMovie.php?id=1284
Many thanks!! I really appreciated it!

Not sure if it helps, here are the codes from the FLA file:
this._visible = false;
var numrotos = 3;
for (n = 0; n < numrotos; n++){
newroto = "roto" + String(n);
this.attachMovie("roto", newroto, n + 1);
this[newroto].theta = n * 360 / numrotos;
this[newroto].panel = 31;
this[newroto].radius = 100;
this[newroto].contents.gotoAndStop(n + 1);
} // end of for
this.title.swapDepths(100);
if (_root._ymouse < 120 || _root._ymouse > 280) {
speed = speed * 0.950000;
} else {
speed = -_xmouse / 50;
this._visible = true;
on (press)
if (out)
_parent.pressv = -2;
out = false;
else
_parent.pressv = 2;
out = true;
} // end if
if (pressv != 0)
this.panel = this.panel + pressv;
pressv = pressv * 0.95;
if (pressv < 0.200000 && pressv > -0.200000)
pressv = 0;
} // end if
} // end if
theta = theta + _parent.speed;
xbit = Math.sin(0.017453 * theta);
ybit = Math.cos(0.017453 * theta);
this._xscale = ybit * this.panel;
this._x = xbit * this.radius;
this._alpha = 30 + (ybit + 1) * 50;
this._yscale = this.panel + (ybit + 1) * 3;
stack = Math.round((ybit + 1) * radius * 2);
if (stack == 100)
stack = 101;
} // end if
this.swapDepths(stack);

About rotating menu...

Hi!...
I saw one excelent tutorial to create a rotating menu. This
function is perfect in a .swf. Nevertheless; I have a little
problem that I'll try to explain here:
I have a main animation called "index.swf". If I load second
animation (products.swf) in index.swf I can't see rotating menu.
In my products.swf I have two codes to build rotating menu:
In main frame:
quote:
stop();
cant = 2;
incr = (2*Math.PI)/cant;
for (i=0; i<cant; i++) {
_root.attachMovie("mc_ball"+i, "mc_ball"+(i+1), 100+i);
referencia = this["mc_ball"+(i+1)];
referencia.angulo = incr*i;
vel = .04;
onEnterFrame = function () {
vel = ((_xmouse-236)/236)*.04;
Previous code calls two MC's with own animations.
In each MC's I have:
quote:
eje_x = 237;
eje_y = 108.6;
amp_x = 150;
amp_y = 40;
onEnterFrame = function () {
this._x = (Math.cos(angulo)*amp_x)+eje_x;
this._y = (Math.sin(angulo)*amp_y)+eje_y;
this._yscale = this._xscale=(this._y-100)*.7+100;
if ((angulo+_root.vel)>(2*Math.PI)) {
angulo += _root.vel-(2*Math.PI);
} else if ((angulo+_root.vel)<0) {
angulo += _root.vel+(2*Math.PI);
} else {
angulo += _root.vel;
grado = int((angulo/Math.PI)*180);
if (grado>=0 && grado<=90) {
this.swapDepths(4000+grado);
if (grado>90 && grado<=180) {
this.swapDepths(3000-grado);
if (grado>180 && grado<=270) {
this.swapDepths(2000-grado);
if (grado>270) {
this.swapDepths(1000+grado);
I says that code run perfectly in the products.swf... But
(always "but"), I need that products.swf running in index.swf.
What I did?
I change "_root." by "this." in first code. So, I can to see
animation of MC's but is not possible to see rotation...
I need modify more options?
Thanks by your help!...

Rotating Menu - Buttons don't work inside MC's

Hello,
This is my first post here and it would be great if I could
have your help to solve this little problem:
Flash CS3 | AS2 | Rotating Menu
I'm creating a small animation in which I have a clock-like
rotative menu.
I found the code for this in the internet and made some few
adjustments (mainly just took somethings I didn't needed out)
In my file I have 6 circles that are all movieclips that make
part of a circular menu that rotates everytime you click on one of
the circles. Those movieclips are not on the stage, only on the
library, and are being "pulled" into action by the actionscript.
I need those movieclips to act as menu buttons, so I made a
button inside each one of them.
The problem is that the buttons don't work. They don't do
what they are suppose to (load another movieclip). The solution
must be quite simple because it doesn't make sense not to work, but
I'm unable to get it...
In the original file they worked as buttons that linked to an
URL but I removed that because I didn't need it. Just need them to
act as normal buttons and play another MC...
Do you have any idea why this happens?
Does it have anything to do with the fact that the circle
movieclips that contain the buttons are not actually on the stage?!
The code I'm using in the buttons is rather simple:
on(release){
movie1.play();
I would appreciate your help on this!
Thank you,

Hi Odisey2,
I appreciate the time you took to try to help me!
I only have 1 frame in my stage, and its the one that
contains the actioscript code.
I also have on stage the MC i'm trying to make the button
play. The first frame of that MC is empty and has a stop, so that
its not visible at first.
Then I wanted that when you click the button (the onde that
is inside the MCs that are being "pulled" by the code I sampled) it
would play that MC on stage.
The code I'm using in the burron is pretty simple:
on(release){
movie1.play();
I've tried to put "_root" before, like this: "_root.movie1"
but it doesn't work as well.
Any other idea?
Do you think it has anything to do with the fact that the
circle movieclips that contain the buttons are not actually on the
stage?!
Thanks,

Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen?

Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen? An if-then statement perhaps? I am looking to add over 100 drop down options and would like to have a message automatically pop up depending one which option they chose. Thank you.

Hi,
You would use the skip logic to conditionally show form items based on the selection within the drop-down menu. Here's a link to a description of the feature in our help documentation:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/formscentral/using/WSd789abd336388b1642c7fce012da94afe4f-8000. html#WS0faeceb8c23f5d60-774f03e3131ddc76d7d-8000

Trying to create a drop down menu in numbers...please help

Hi
Can anyone indicate how to go about creating a drop-down menu.
Thanks in advance

Hi Meela,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Numbers 08 forum.
Check page 66 of the Numbers User Guide supplied with your copy of iWork. The guide refers to them as "pop-up" menus, so a search using "pop-up" will be more successful than one using "drop down".
Essentially the process is:
Click on the cell to select it.
Open the Inspector and choose Cell Format (icon is a cell containing 42)
Click the Cell Format menu and select Pop-up Menu from the bottom of the list.
Double click an item in the list to edit it. Click the + button to add an item, the - button to delete the selected item.
Done.
Regards,
Barry

How do I create a drop down menu with Code Snippets and Flash CS5?

I am wondering how to create a drop down menu using the Code Snippets and CS5?
There are some older tutorials out there and it would be nice if someone could create an updated drop down menu tutorial, and it might be me doing this after I have figured out the best and easiest way to create one, but before that I need some pointers.
Thanks!

How do i create a drop down menu???

This is nothing to do with creating a run-time menu, rather it is to do with creating a sort of drop down or drop up menu selection with three or more options. I want to have a button at the buttom of the front panel, when you click on it, a menu which contains some options should appear (kind of Start button menu in Windows), and after chosing one option it disapears (the menu). How do i do it in LabView. Thanks

you can create an event structure that will trigger an event upon a button hit. Now you will have to be careful when using an enum if you want to populate it dynamically. You cannot write directly to the strings property of an enum. I would suggest using a text box and right clicking on it to create a property node. Once you have created the property node then write to the strings property and you will be able to write an array of strings. You can programmatically remove your options from that array before writing it based on what button was hit. Hope this helps.

How can i create a drop down menu for set qty in my store?

I'm wondering how i can create a drop down menu for the qty module that sits on the individual product page. My client sells in quantities of 6 packs. I currently have the minimum order at 6 but i would like to give consumers the option for 6,12,18...and so forth. I was told that it could be accomplished? Hopefully someone can help me.

Hi Chris -
Thank you for your reply! I had seen your article before, and just now again attempted to follow it, but I get stuck. There are two things that I'm confused by.
First off, toward the top, referring to the initial button, you say to add this interaction:
ON CLICK; Play Transition to comboBox: selected
ON ROLL OUT; Play Transition to comboBox normal if comboBox is in over state
ON ROLL OVER; Play Transition to comboBox over if comboBox is in normal
However, I do not see these transition options. When I select the button, the only interactions I have are to Play transistion to state, Play action sequence, Go to URL, and two for videos. So that's the first roadblock for me.
But, trying to get passed that, I went down to the portion of the article that refers to adding interaction to the dataset items. Again, I don't get it, as I see no way to add interaction to a dataset item. When I open my design-time data menu, I do see the items, and am able to rename each item, add additional rows, and change the shape of the datalist layout. However, I see no way to add an interaction to a dataset item. I must be missing a step ... Can you help with this?
Again, thank you!
