Re: [Flashcoders] ticker
Not sure what your ticker looks like, but a very simply solution I sometimes use is to place 2 copies of the complete ticker with all elements in a row, and then I simply update those two while modding the x positions of the ticker, instead of modding x's of every item in the ticker separately. Might be completely different from what you are doing, but it reduces the wrapping code for the items in a ticker to about 1 line ;). On Fri, May 28, 2010 at 11:07 PM, John R.

Hehe - Just giving you a nudge in the right direction - you have to look up some info - try googling for flash tween yoyo and it opens up some interesting stuff.

Re: [Flashcoders] ticker
Are you using a Tween Engine like TweenMax? Most have a yoyo function built in which endlessly loops back and forth. .m On Fri, May 28, 2010 at 11:04 AM, Lehr, Theodore ted_l...@federal.dell.com wrote: That's what I love about this list - there is ALWAYS help available but it is often cryptic... ;-) From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Glen Pike [g...@engineeredarts.co.uk] Sent: Friday, May 28, 2010 10:57 AM To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] ticker On 28/05/2010 15:45, Lehr, Theodore wrote: I am trying to make a simple ticker... my thinking is to tween it (in as) right to left... how would I make that tween repeat endlessly? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders yoyo is your friend ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Have each item as its on sprite/mc and when it tweens off the stage, reset its x/y to start over again.

Re: [Flashcoders] ticker
or just assign some 'onComplete' handler to your tween, reset your object to tween 's position to the right of the screen and (re)start tweening. rinse and repeat.
