Getting one MC to react to the animations of another

Hey guys, I'm not only new to the forums, but also rather new to AS 3.0, so this might be something really simple but I can't seem to figure it out.  Basically, what I'm trying to do it make a photogallery that's essentially a grid of thumbnails.  When the user rolls over a thumbnail, I want it to grow in size just a little bit and when they click it would get much larger.  Now, that part is simple, but when all of these size changes take place, I'm trying to make the other thumbnails get out of the way, instead of the usual overlapping that would occur.  So my question is this:
Is there some simple way to change the properties of those thumbnail MCs to avoid overlapping at all costs, while remaining on the stage?  Or would I have to animate every possible combination separately on ever possible thumbnail?  The latter would be possible I guess, but it seems like AS 3.0 is pretty intuitive and having to code something like that seems pretty archaic.
Thanks!

you'll have to code for that.  you can use google to search for:  flash tsunami.
you'll need expand the standard tsunami effect to a grid but all the coding is essentially the same.

  • How to get custom graphics to work with the animator object

    I Have a costom graphic that I wish to have change color depending the position of a Pot, and have tried using the animator object. However the animator object fails to change color when the pot is moved, when i replace the costom graphic with a standard one (a pipe) the color changes perfectly. The costom graphic is in wmf format so it should work. what am i doing wrong or is this just not possible?

    Hello,
    That's a little odd. Did you trying playing with the Gray Proximity settings? If it's not too difficult maybe you can create various colored versions of your graphic and use the Multistate object instead.
    Is it possible to post the picture here so we can try?

  • How do I copy and paste a gradient color from one document and then use the gradient on another document?

    I am making business cards. On the back of the cards there are two lines with gradients. Below is a card with a magenta gradient. I want to select both lines and change the magenta gradient to the orange gradient from the file below. How do I do this? (I do not want to copy a paste the orange lines and then move them over the magenta ones.) I just want to select the magenta lines and change their color to the orange gradient. This will insure absolute alignment. I want to do repeat the process with several other gradients too. Thank you.

    David,
    As I (mis)understand it, you may:
    1) Copy one orange gradient path to the magenta gradient path document;
    2) Select the two magenta gradient paths and change the Fill to None;
    3) Select the orange gradient path;
    4) Select the two magenta gradient paths and change the Fill to Gradient.
    That should give you the desired replacement. For multiple use of the same gradient, you may consider a gradient swatch.

  • Speed dial only has one icon, to open up the windows. Another used to be on the other end of the tool bar for entering websites into the windows. Also do not know how to form another group.

    I have just downloaded Firefox into a new computer. The firefox I had in my old computer had one (9 pt) icon at one end that brought up the speed 9 speed dial windows. It also had another similar icon at the other end of the tool bar that you could click on and place a website you were looking at into a particular window. This add on does not have that feature, which makes it very hard to make entries into the windows.
    Also I have not found the way to add other groups of windows as I had before. I could even label them in categories. What to do?
    My Computer is an HP p6653w and my default browser is Firefox 3.6
    My operating system is windows 7.

  • Ever since the large update my Apple TV has become completely inconsistent.  Unable to connect to WiFi or keep a connection when I get one. As well before the update it would connect really quickly, now even when it does connect it takes forever to do it.

    A few weeks ago I was using my Apple TV ( gen 3) and it started to automaticall do an update. That was the really long one. Ever since then I have been having more trouble getting it to connect to my WiFi and stay connected.
    I just did another update and nothing seems to have changed. Please don"t tell me it's interference or I need to "reboot" the system. I've done that so many times my cats know how to do it now!
    I've tried everything that I can find online and in my users guide but nothing seems to be helping except unplugging it and starting over, every time I change shows. I'm ready to toss it out a window, any ideas? And no, it doesn't seem to qualify as the models that were being replaced.

    I have been having the same issue and am now VERY upset because it works for about 5 minutes so I bought a movie(that you can only watch on AppleTV once you buy it) thinking it would work...but now it stopped again. I rebooted the system I even reset the thing with no luck. I got into the first 2 minutes of the movie and only have 24 hours left to watch it. At the moment I am not very satisfied with the AppleTV update and hope it is fixed and I get my 6.99$ back.

  • Is there a way to click on one image and activate the animation in another class?

    I'm using the ibooks.js library. So it'd need to .activate another class if using the ibooks-toggleable function.
    Thanks!

    Harold,
    I can't say how this compares to Word, since I don't use it, but you can open as many document at a time as you wish in Pages. Each will have its own window. Having too many open will slow your system and reduce Macbook battery life.

  • How do I populate one dropdown list based on the selection in another dropdown list?

    I have one dropdown list that has 21 choices.  Depending on the selection of those 21 choices, I have another dropdown list that will select a different subset of choices from a pool of 96 choices.  How do I get this to happen?

  • Is it possible to render previews on one computer while working on the project on another?

    Hi!
    Even with CS5 and a cuda card I still need to render a lot since I'm using lossless image sequences as my intermediate forms.
    Would it be possible to take advantage of having multiple computers while working with Premiere? Maybe one computer could be dedicated just for preview rendering while the other one could be used for regular editing simultaneously? Is there anything on the market that does this?
    I welcome any discussion on the subject!
    Thanks!

    About the only thing you can do with Premiere is export out a sequence in the background while you continue working, then bring that back into Premiere and lay it down above the original sequence.
    Of course, if you wish to continue working on the same sequence, this won't work.
    Background rendering would be a very welcome addition to Premiere.  Hell even Encore can do that.

  • Automatic Cursor Movement in one Graph, in accordance to the cursor in another graph

    I am using two XY graphs each with 4 cursors. I want to assign each cursor of graph A to each cursor of graph B such that the corresponding cursors in graph B moves in accordance to the cursors in graph A.
     I have used Active cursor, Cursor.PosX and it works for one cursor. However when I use the same concept to change the active cursor value and faciliate the automatic movement for all cursors they do not work.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    As requested I would like to post the solution as to how I tacked the problem. It was actually small mistake on my part. When I connect the two property nodes for each XY graphs I should connect ActiveCursor to ActiveCursor and Cursor.PosX to Cursor.PosX. What I did was connect the Active cursor of A graph to the cursor.index of B graph. I have attached a small screen shot of connecting the first cursor of A graph to the 1st cursor of B graph so that the cursor in B graph follows the cursor in A graph.
    In order to connect more cursors as in my case, the only change to be made is the change in the Acitve cursor constant to, 1,2,......

  • Hi, I have a large number of products in one column and prices of the products in another. Most prices are different. I want to know if it is possible to increase all of the prices by 5% or 10% etc. Hope someone can help. From Stiffy

    Hi, This is my first time I hope someone can help.
    I am working with numbers and I have a large number of products in one column and the relevent prices in another. All the prices are different and I want to increase the price of everything by 5% or 10% etc. Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance
    Stiffy123

    Ad a new, temporary column (or one you can hide when not using). Let's say the current Prices are in column C and the new column is D.
    you can inflate the prices in column C by 5% by entering the formula in the first cell of column D as:
    =C2*105%
    likes this:
    to fill down, select D2, then copy, then select the D3 thru the end of the column, then paste.  Now select C2 thru the end of column C, now paste over the existing values using the menu item "Edit > Paste Values"
    you can now hide column D until you need to use it again.

  • Table - populate one table with data from the list of another table

    Hello All,
    I am a newbie in Swing and am a book and few tutorials old.
    I am trying to achieve the following:
    (1) I populate Table1 (a JTable) with a list of data - each row consists of several columns. And I have a Table2 (also JTable) that is in the beginning empty.
    Both the tables (Table1 and Table2) are showed in the window.
    (2) Lets say, there's a button (JButton) in between the two tables.
    Now if I Select a row from Table1 and press the button, this row will be sent/copied to Table2.
    And this way I can choose different rows and pass the data to Table2.
    I have manages to make Table1 and put data in it ... but for the rest, I don't know where and how to begin.
    Would appreciate some ideas and tips.
    Thank you.

    Since you are using a button to start the copy process you don't need to worry about a ListSelectionListener or a MouseListener. You need to create a button with an ActionListener that does the following:
    a) Create an Array based on the size of the number of columns in the table
    b) get the index of the selected row
    c) populate the Array with data from the TableModel by using the table.getModel().getValueAt(...) method for each
    d) Now you can add the row of data to the other JTable by updating its model.
    DefaultTableModel model2 = (DefaultTableModel)table2.getMode();
    model.addRow( theArray );

  • I want to use the audio from one of my clips and the video of another can I do this?

    I have two different video clips that I took from my still camera. I want to use the audio from one of the clips and the video from the other at the same time in imovie can I do this and if yes how

    Yes.
    First go to iMovie/Preferences and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
    Now, drag the clip with the Video into the project.
    Drag the clip with the Audio and drop it on the first clip at the frame where you want it to begin. A popup menu should appear. Choose Audio Only. You may then want to open Inspector for the video clip (by clicking the little gear icon at the top left of the clip) and going to the audio tab. Here you can turn down the volume of the video clip, so that all you hear is the audio clip.
    Another way. Put the video clip that has the Audio you want in first. Then drag the clip with the video you want and drop it on the clip that has the audio you want. A popup menu will appear. Choose CUTAWAY.

  • How can I use Iphone 4 as an mp3 player without a sim card until I get one?

    Hi,
    How can I use Iphone 4 as an mp3 player without a sim card until I get one? I just bought the phone and each time I try to switch it on to use the mp3 player, I cannot. It asks me to insert a sim card and I don't have a sim card yet. I was thinking I could use the mp3 player function of my phone until I buy a sim card.
    Thank you for your help in advance,

    Thank you, I understand, yeah, I knew that, my phone is factory unlocked and I am going home, which is obviously not in the States and I am thinking of buying a local carrier there. However, I still have 2 weeks before I leave and cannnot wait to start using my Iphone 4. I thought at least I could use the mp3 player function. So as far as I understand, I cannot activate it without a sim card. I have been using metropcs for about two years and it does not have a sim card. In this case, do I really not have another choice but wait for two weeks to listen to music? My Mp3 player just failed me and I really need to listen to music but on the other hand, while I can use my iphone as an mp3 player in two weeks, I don't want to spend more money on a new one. So, do you have another suggestion? For instance, can I use a friend's sim card to activate mine? Would this cause any trouble, when I go home and buy a local carrier? I think these questions might kinda sound weird to you, but first time with an Iphone, extremely excited to start using under my circumstances, I need help   thanks,
