but why does 15/3000*100 = 0.5?
15% of $3,000 dollars is not 5¢ its $450

Maybe my mac calculator is broken?
Frustrating..

check out haxe (www.haxe.org), you can write in something almost identical
to AS3 and target c++, cpp, php, javascript and neko when you compile.
i haven't used it for c++ but i've followed conversations on the mailing
list about targetting the iphone. probably a good way to dip your toe in
while
more than one way to skin a cat :)
just thought it might be handy to look at given that Matt was weighing up

i would strongly suggest if this is fixed (i.e. you know what you're shape
is and it's not going to change) to do it on a timeline with masks.
if not then you need to get to grips with the drawing api and for curves
maybe some maths too. for a straight line it's
that's not going to preload anything though. we know how everyone loved the
skip intro days...
victor, you need to do this in flash (if i've understood you correctly) you
get your preloader to load in your main content, it's a container...
Lehr, try this code, hopefully it should explain...
function drawDot(targetSprite:Sprite, size:int):void
{
targetSprite.graphics.beginFill(0);
targetSprite.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,size/2);
targetSprite.graphics.beginFill(0);
}
var originOfStage:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(originOfStage);
look at lineGradientStyle, or use your dotted line to mask a shape with the
diff colours in the right places, or draw different lines, one with one
colour and one in another colour...

Thanks for the
you could also make createBar return a reference to the sprite...
function createBar(dfile:String):Sprite {
...
mySprite = new Sprite();
// do stuff
addChild(mySprite);
return mySprite;
}
var mySprite:Sprite = createBar(string);
then you can remove it
ok, bar isn't the name of the sprite, it's a variable with name bar which
contains a reference to your sprite... if you want to use names then do
something like bar.name = String(bar_ + i); but personally i'd use an
array like so...
var bars:Array = [];
function createBars():void
{

yeah, horses for courses...
if you want to better encapsulate stuff, i find it easier to work with
arrays (in fp10 vectors) and pass them around if needs be. tying your code
to specific timelines gives you more work to do if you want to reuse that
code imho.
for something quick and dirty in
Lehr,
try this...
var pArray:Array = new Array();
var mc:MovieClip = pArray[0] as MovieClip;
mc.gotoAndStop(2);
or...
var pArray:Array = new Array();
MovieClip(pArray[0]).gotoAndStop(2);
which is closer to your original AS2.

yeah didn't work in safari when i was playing around with something similar
a few years ago, everything else was ok though. i was calling a function in
JS to resize the size of the flash. i'd be interested if anyone had anything
working along these lines that worked in all browsers...
