The way you move through the screens on this site is very cool.

Is there anyone out there that may be able to break it down and make a tutorial of it?
thanx in advance. |

A friend and I have been breaking down the effect.
If we get it to where we're happy with it I'll post it for you.

Oh, I've seen that site before... It's a very clever way of scaling. It will be interesting to see what you come up with.

Definitely. You could achieve that effect from button to button with tweening, but to go from the last button to the first, you could never do without AS.

We're trying to mimic this scaling effect using AS at the moment.
I'm probably going to code out a "three or four scale using a button nav suite" swf (did that make sense??!!) on the weekend.
I'll keep you all posted.

Hey there. Hope your progress is going well.
This effect is scaling and very good use of it. There is also some easing applied to it as it nears the end of the scaling.
Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
| Code: |
function scaleIt(){
if(mc._width == stage.width && mc._height == stage.height){
clearInterval(myInterval);
mc._width = stage.width;
mc._height = stage.height;
} else{
mc._width += 5;
mc._height += 3;
}
}
but1.onRelease = function(){
myInterval = setInterval(scaleIt, 500);
}
|
That's the basic version, without the easing. I will that to the rest of you. Have fun.  _________________ Marcus J. Dickinson

Do you mean stage or Stage? I changed it to Stage.
Also, to shrink change the + to a minus:
| Code: |
function scaledown(){
if (mc._width == Stage.width && mc._height == Stage.height) {
clearInterval(myInterval);
mc._width = Stage.width;
mc._height = Stage.height;
} else {
mc._width -= 5;
mc._height -= 3;
}
}

why can't it simply be created in flash?
I mean if when clicking from the last screen to the first it used one frame for each page it zoomed through.
Is it simply because it wouldn't be as smooth, or would there be file size issues? _________________ It's one thing to be adaptable, but seriously would a chameleon live in a rainbow? |
