August 20th, 2009

Using TweenLite to generate the animations for a simple flash slideshow built using Flash IDE.

my goal was was to create a looping slideshow as simply as possible. least amount of steps. and with some room to expand on.
this tutorial is made to help understand the logic and some basic moving parts involved in a general slideshow.
it certainly won’t fit all slideshow needs, especially ones with lots of slides, or with constantly changing slides.

deepTrace for haXe flash9/10

August 19th, 2009

posted a code snippet on http://haxe.org/doc/snip/deeptrace?lang=en

a useful tool i use sometimes to see a displayObject’s display list in a tree format with optional parameter to see extra fields.

deepTrace(myObject,[“x”,”y”]); will trace something like

[object myObject] -> ( x : 560; y : 150 )
    [object MovieClip] -> ( x : 0; y : -50 )
        [object Shape] -> ( x : 0; y : 0 )
        [object Shape] -> ( x : 0; y : 0 )
        [object Sprite] -> ( x : 200; y : 100 )
    [object Sprite] -> ( x : 100 ; y : 300 )
        [object SimpleButton] -> ( x : -10 ; y : 100 )
        [object TextField] -> ( x : -40 ; y : -30 )
    [object Sprite] -> ( x : 300 ; y : 300 )
        [object SimpleButton] -> ( x : -10 ; y : 100 )
        [object TextField] -> ( x : -40 ; y : -30 )
    [object Sprite] -> ( x : 200 ; y : 300 )
        [object CustomButton] -> ( x : -37 ; y : 100 )
            [object Shape] -> ( x : 0; y : 0 )
