so I'm fairly new to using actionscript for everything in my flash
and I was wondering if there was a way to rotate a movie clip around
another movie clip that is already rotating. here's the scenario...I
have a "crystal ball" that is floating in a circle thanks to
actionscript. this ball has 2 "light squares" on it to give the
impression of glass/lights/etc...I also have a separate shadow
movieclip on the ground below the ball that I am changing the size
and alpha according to the y position of the ball movieclip (via
actionscript, of course). I want to do the same thing with these
light squares. I'd like to give the effect of when the ball floats
down, the light squares rotate/move up on the ball and vise versa.
this would give the effect that this is just a glass ball floating in
space with overhead lights that are stationary. so that's what I
want to do and maybe it's way too far over my head for now, but I
guess I gotta learn somehow! so...is there a way to rotate/move this
light square movieclip according to the x & y axis of the ball
movieclip? any help would be appreciated...right now, I've been just
copying and pasting code in there and seeing what happens. I'm a
designer and not a math wiz, but I'm slowly learning. thanks!
