That's all fine and dandy until I come to the problem of getting the elastic protrusion of the symbol to "retract" after a certain trigger in my movie. I was wondering if there is some kind of AS that can set a timer and/or set a trigger for a frame name/number without having to add a keyframe to trigger the retraction. Is this possible? Here is my code: [code] onClipEvent (load) { this.elasticScale = function(tar, accel, convert) { xScale = xScale * accel + (tar - this._xscale) * convert; yScale = yScale * accel + (tar - this._yscale) * convert; this._xscale += xScale; this._yscale += yScale; } } onClipEvent(enterFrame){ this.elasticScale(220,0.5,0.3) } [/code] Additionally, here is some other code that actually does what I need for a button symbol when you rollout. However, I can't rely on mouse interaction to trigger the retraction: [code] onClipEvent (load) { this.elasticScale = function(tar, accel, convert) { xScale = xScale * accel + (tar - this._xscale) * convert; yScale = yScale * accel + (tar - this._yscale) * convert; this._xscale += xScale; this._yscale += yScale; } } onClipEvent(enterFrame){ if(this.hitTest(_root._xmouse,_root._ymouse,true)){ this.elasticScale(125,0.7,0.4) }else if (!this.hitTest(_root._xmouse,_root._ymouse,true)){ this.elasticScale(100,0.7,0.4) } } [/code] Notice it goes to 125% the actual size on this.hitTest and retracts back to 100% on rollout... Any help is appreciated! [This message has been edited by Thumper (edited 03-11-2004).] Loading...
