Hi Flashcoders, I have coded a donut shape by drawing two concentric circles (one appears to punch out the other) then tweening (using Tweener) the width and height of both circles for the same amout of time and by their widths + the same increase.
This gives the effect of a circle getting larger but the distance between the inner radius and outer radius remaining the same (which is very important to the effect I'm after. Stagger a load of these going off and you have a nice two tone ripple effect, however you can't overlay this over an image or attach an alpha effect as actually it is a load of solid circles, not an actual donut shape with a hole in the middle. I am aware you can create a donut shape by drawing both circles in the same fill (really punching the hole in the middle), but when this is scaled the width between the inner and outer radius scales as well. The only way I can think to solve this is to redraw the donut each time using an EnterFrame event, but this seems wrong and I would prefer to be using Tweener for nice/easy easing and the like. All ideas gratefully received. Regards, Michael _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
