How advanced can you animate a character in Flash?

Hello, I learned the bone tool a while back, and i was just wondering can you animate a charachter using advanced AS3? to move hands and facial muscles or even clothing to fall around a charachter as they move? or is there a way to do this using Flash and AS3? because i am interested in doing an advanced flash animation. thanks.

whether it looks choppy or not depends on your frame rate (flash can help) and the amont of change from one frame to the next (not something flash can help you with).
if you have changes like, shape, position, color, rotation, skew etc, flash can animate those without the need for frame-by-frame animation.

I am 19 days from my contract needing to be renewed and I broke my screen. How far in advance can you renew before the actual renew day?

I am 19 days from my contract needing to be renewed and I broke my screen. How far in advance can you renew before the actual renew day?

Basically it is on the day your contract ends. However some Verizon wireless corporate store managers can over ride that and update possibly a week early. But its iffy.
Now Verizon will let you upgrade to the Edge program but you have a broken device and they will prey on you since you are desperate for a device. Edge plan is paying full price over 20 months and paying taxes on it up front, you then after paying 60% of the device off can edge up to another device. Now if you pay 60% off at anytime after 30 days you can continue to trade them in for new as much as you want.
Or you can wait it out get a new free device under contract or reduced cost device again under a 2 year contract.
The edge plan is no contract.
Good Luck

How/where can you change the delimiters within the output file -Urgent Pls!

Hello Experts,
When Exporting data through EAS, how/where can you change the delimiters within the output file (ie. space delimited vs tab delimited vs custom)
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sonu

This is where I will be shot down in flames but at least in 7.x I am unaware of any configuration option that allows you to export in anything other than space delimited.
I guess you could write a shell/perl script that could change this outside of Essbase

Things i had to set manually;
1) Keyboard layout, because it defaults to US
2) Two mouse keys don't work had to manually set, Emulate3Buttons defaults on (wanted it off)
3) "VideoOverlay" is off by default (or is not auto detected)
3) needed to set DPI to 96
4) needed to set color to 24 (defaulted to 8?)
apart from that, the auto detection is vastly improving IMO.
The main premise behind this, is to debate the auto detection capabilities of hardware by xorg.

HT1390 How long can you keep a movie rental, once it's downloaded? Do u need wifi to watch it?

How long can you keep a movie rental, once it's downloaded? Do u need wifi to watch it?

As long as it's been fully downloaded then you shouldn't need to be online in order to watch it.
As to how long you have to watch it, from here :
You have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and 24 hours (in the US) or 48 hours (elsewhere) after you've started viewing to finish it. Once the rental period expires, the movie will disappear from your iTunes library.

How much can you fit using iDVD

How mcuh can you fit on a dvd using iDVD? Can you fit 2 hours, maybe more.

No, 2 hours, maybe less!
The maximum capacity of a DVD is 120 minutes, but that includes titles, transitions etc.
If you work on 1 hr 45 minutes you should be OK.
The only exception is if you burn the DVD using Roxio Toast, which has the ability to 'compress to fit', but there is a quality penalty.
The attention span of the audience is also a factor....

How much can you customize Professional level storefronts?

I know that you need to be an Enterprise user to have completely customized storefronts, but how much can you customize Professional user storefronts? What do they look like? Most magazines I've seen are Enterprise level

With a Professional account, you cannot customize the storefront. If you create a subscription app, you can specify subscription tiles and indicate with subscription durations are available, but that's about it.

Hi,
Are we sure that a voice memo can only be 35 minutes long? I only ask as I'm about to start Uni and was quite keen to use the voice memo feature to record lectures (which are definitely longer than 35mins).
Just to test (as I've never really used mine before) I might leave mine running tonight and see when it cuts out/stops.
BTW, what's iTalk....and how do I get it???
Thanks :o)

Turn off the check mark to sync your music and also the check mark for the video. Sync the device. This will remove the items from you iPad but still keep them on your computer. Install IOS 7.1.2. Then turn on the check marks for your music and videos and resync the device.

I was wondering, once the 1gb free data is applied to the account, can you downgrade your plan? If so, how low can you drop the data before the promo is affected?

How we can find the last character in a string(Urgent Plz!)

Gurus!
How we can find the last character in a string.
e.g i have a string say "Str" with value "10-01".
Now i want to find the last character in "Str" i.e "ONE=1".
i am using Oracle developer 6i with Oracle 8i(1.7).
Plz help!
Many thanks!

Use the substr() and length() functions -
x := '10-01';
y := substr(x, length(x));

How long can you revert back to the original photo after cropping?

Is there any time limit for how long can you revert back to the original photo after cropping? Are you always able to revert back?
Thanks.

DAM = "Digital Asset Manager", a fancy name for a filing system.
iPhoto keeps the original and makes one (usually much smaller) copy based on your edits. It is non-destructive in that if you crop, and later change the color, iPhoto will go back to the original and apply the corrections to get the new image, it will not simply modify the preview.
If you want a high quality copy of the image, use the export function which allows you to specify the size and compression.

How soon can you transfer iTunes accounts?

How soon can you transfer apple IDs on your device? I have two accounts. An old one and and newer one. Could I set my iPhone up wi the old one and transfer to the new one the same day?

You can logout of the currently logged in account by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and you can then log in with a different account (you can't transfer content from one account to another account). But if you turn on automatic downloads for an account, use iTunes match or re-download its past purchases then you risk tying your iPhone (and the same principle applies to computers) to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
If you want past purchases from an account, then do you have all of your content from both accounts on your computer's iTunes so that you can sync them over ?

Animate a character with Flash environment + AS3

Hi !
This is a trouble I've been facing for YEARS, and no way for me to solve it. Save me my heros.
I'm trying to animate a character with Flash whose face can be changed.
So I have a Character MovieClip in which I have 4 frames. In each frame there is an animation of the little guy : one going down, one going left, right, and up.
In each animation there is the MovieClip Head in which you can attach a hat, sunglasses, hair etc... Am I clear enough ?
Here is the problem : since the head is going to be changed by the player, the MovieClip Head MUST have the same reference in each frame in each animation. Unfortunatly, Flash thinks the MovieClip Head is a new one on each animation of the little guy running. So for instance, if I attach sunglasses on the clip Head, then they will disappear as soon as the character will change his direction since Flash doesn't know the Head I'm using in the new animation isn't a new one.
What am I doing wrong ?
If I'm not clear enough, please tell me. I REALLY want to understand how to make such a thing on Flash.

Hi, Kromah
I've edited your files and updated here.
From looking at your files, I decided that the easiest solution without totally restructuring what you had would be the third solution, watching the stage for heads to be added, then updating any head you happen to get.
To make this work, I ran the Set Instance Name on Multiple Frames extension to set all of the Head layers to "head." The reasoning behind this was that you didn't have a Class name assigned to your Head instance, so I fell back on checking to see if the instance name was "head." So the instance name needed to be assigned to be head.
A few other things I noticed:
Your Character symbol and your Character .as Class had the same name. This can confuse the compiler, but more importantly, this would prevent you from having any other Character symbols that used the same .as file. This is why I renamed the symbol and its Linkage name to CharacterMC.
Your button instance names start with Upper Case letters. In ActionScript, the convention is for Class members to be named starting with a lower case letter. Even though you don't see the Class in an .as file since you're not using a main Document Class, it still exists (created silently in the background by the compiler) and you still should follow the convention if for no other reason than that you will probably want to move to a main Document Class at some point.
When you use the underscore character to start a variable name, this denotes that it's internal storage for a variable that's accessible through a getter/setter pair. This is not how you've used it, but this is understandable. The standards for this have evolved over the years as AS3 has matured, and I only noticed this in the last version of the Adobe standards that was available. That seems to be a dead link now. That said, I followed what you are already doing, because it just creates confusion to do half your variables one way and half another.
I personally prefer protected to private, because you really need to know what you're doing and understand how your code is likely to evolve to be able to set things to private yet provide enough hooks for you or other developers to be able to extend your code. IME the vast majority of developers simply don't have this level of clairvoyance. However, I followed what you were already doing.
I think you should either instantiate everything and add it to the stage yourself or let the Flash player do it, not mix and match. There's more information available on the former technique than the latter, so you should probably go that way.
Update: The Apache Flex standards (which is what the old Adobe standards became) can be found here.
