I wonder how many guys give up ciggies on the basis of having a complaining partner! Certainly was a factor with me.

Funny you feel that you never disliked it. I really didn't like smoking in a...

Dr. Hindsight strikes again....

Yeah, I thought I knew, but didn't realise the extent of it. I'm the first person to admit that it's stupid, it's that point of view that's helped me to stop.

HA!

Nobody decides to become a smoker. It's nicotine addiction. Surprisingly easy to fall into. I got into fags through smoking pot. No problem stopping smoking pot, but by that time I was on...

Good luck with the stopping smoking.

Stopped on Friday night, that's me up to about three and a half days. No patches or anything.

I read the Allan Carr book, which is (in my opinion)...

Ha,

might have worked this out, here's a function I ripped of from some VB code. Not sure if it's 100%, but initial tests seem to be OK. Haven't got a clue how it works, never really understood...

Yeah, the basic functions only round to whole integers. There are straightforward methods of roundng to a set number of decimal points, but it's rounding to significant figures that is the problem.

Hi,

I'm writing a Flash thingie that is based on an Excel spreadsheet (geez, loadsa maths) but there's a problem with rounding.

Excel, by default or otherwise, is rounding all values to ten...

Quick question,

I want to put a button inside a movieclip. The mc has an onclipEvent(enterFrame) event on it, and it seems to stop the button being active. Is this how it normally works? Anyone...

Hi,

I've got some control buttons which I want to play a mive when the mousebutton is held down. THe MC should stop when you release the mouse button. Problem is that the movie doesn't recognise...

Hi,

was looking into a similar problem. Came out of problems with the hitTest function on rotating rectangles, decided it might be easier to look for intersecting lines. Anyway, found this...

IT's OK!!

got it sorted out. looked like being a major stumbling block, but have found a neater way of doing it.

Thanks

sorry, you misunderstand me. The barriers are within the tile, but they don't occupy the whole thing, there may be one or more barriers within a single tile. It was a system to hepl avoid having to...

Hiya,

got a wee problem here, driving me mad.

I've got a movieclip of a vehicle, driving about an area. On the smae level I have an mc for a tile, and within this a mc for a barrier. Now I'm...

Hi,

posted this in the standalone section as well, but reckoned it might see a bit more traffic through here.

Hi,

was just wondering if anyone out there has succesfully created a screensaver using FlashForge, and have it work properly on XP. Problem I'm having is that after the screensaver has kicked in,...

Hiya,

sorry, have been away from flashkit for a couple of days. Don't have a messenger thingie unfortunately, but I'll see what I can offer.

Right, couple of things I'd probably do (no...

not entirely sure what the problem is exactly, but some pointers...



onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
var radians = Math.atan2(_root._ymouse-_y, _root._xmouse-_x);

just a suggestion, why not make an invisible button to define the area for the mouse over. You can just put your code to change the movieclips in the rollOver and rollOut button events.

if you can do a search and replace on your text file before uploading it then use the escape characters detailed in macromedia flash technote #14143.

Hope this helps

If you get the first section sorted then the second part should kind follow from that.

I've got one technique for this, although depending how many red dots are chasing about then the load on the...

not sure what the question is.

If you are wanting a custom cursor for your page then there are plenty of tutorials kicking about in Flashkit for this. Basically you create your custom cursor,...

Hi,

had a similar problem myself. First off, there is no way of retrieving a movieclip's depth property that I know of.

To get round this I created all my duplicate clips and set up an array...
