RE: [Flashcoders] animate mask like liquid
I don't know if it has something to do with what you want to reach but check the demo 5 and 6 on this link, kind a liquid shape generated with bitmap drawing and filters: http://www.soundstep.com/blog/2008/05/08/line-bitmap-drawing-with-tweener-be zier/ Romu -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of allandt bik-elliott Sent: 06 June 2008 10:01 To: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] animate mask like liquid hi folks maybe you guys can help me. I've been asked to explore how to animate a mask to look like it's liquid. currently the mask is amended every frame by placing a circle which looks a little spotty.

Re: [Flashcoders] animate mask like liquid
thanks for the advice we decided to stick with what they had due to time contraints in the end that's really nice - i'm filing that under 'will use at first opportunity' :) On Fri, Jun 6, 2008 at 10:49 AM, Romuald Quantin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I don't know if it has something to do with what you want to reach but check the demo 5 and 6 on this link, kind a liquid shape generated with bitmap drawing and filters: http://www.soundstep.com/blog/2008/05/08/line-bitmap-drawing-with-tweener-be zier/http://www.soundstep.com/blog/2008/05/08/line-bitmap-drawing-with-tweener-bezier/ Romu -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of allandt bik-elliott Sent: 06 June 2008 10:01 To: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] animate mask like liquid hi folks maybe you guys can help me.

Re: [Flashcoders] animate mask like liquid
Hi, Do you mean like ripples on a pond when you drop something in? Here is an abstract example of what I mean http://www.levitated.net/bones/hiddenPower/examples/ripples.html Or do you mean like the ripples on a swimming pool? Have a look at http://www.flashfilterlab.com/ which may help you with some ideas - you can create effects and download them compiled, but if you can work out what to use, you can roll your own. I made a rippling text transition on this website: (Click the power button to get rid of the animation, then if you click the menu links you will see what I mean). http://sas.org.uk/education/sos/ This uses a perlin noise to generate a bitmap used in a displacement filter. The size of the perlin noise parameter is tweened over time so the ripples get bigger and smaller...

You can also soften the edges of a graphic object by applying a glow filter of the same color.
