Hi Flashcoders,
I've been busy recreating the famous PageFlip application and I've
noticed something weird. It seems that movieclips have a limitation to
their rotation. When I turn over a page in the application, there are
visible errors in the shadows and masks that make this page up. They
flicker left and right when dragging the page, due to their capped
_rotation property.
Wanna see for yourself? Paste this on your root, then create a rather
wide movieclip (name = mc) and set the fps to 99 for a visible
demonstration:
var rot = 0;
onEnterFrame = function() {
rot += 0.01;
mc._rotation = rot;
}
You'll notice that the movieclip won't rotate smoothly, but rather
tick like a clock, skipping angles.
I've already accepted that there's nothing that can be done about
this, but just to be sure I'd like to ask if anyone has had trouble
with this in their application and what you did about it, either to
mask it up or actually solve this problem.
With regards,
Bart Wttewaall
