Quick Question

[aruti]

I am sure the answer is no but I thought I would ask.

I am using thsi script in my movie for easing.

onClipEvent(load)
{
var Targetx=Picture.Home._x;
var Speed=.085;

}
onClipEvent(enterFrame)
{
var xDistance=Speed*Math.sqrt(Math.pow((Picture._x+Tar getx)-_parent.View._x,2));

if((Picture._x+Targetx)>=_parent.View._x)
{
Picture._x-=xDistance;
}
else if((Picture._x+Targetx)<=_parent.View._x)
{
Picture._x+=xDistance;
}

}

The one thing I notice is taht when my image is almost in place I get a little jerky movement. It is nto so bad but for the last two pixels or so I get a jerky movemnt that I would like to smooth out. Is there anyway to make it smoother?

Thanks for the help.

Try this instead:

onClipEvent (load) {
	var Targetx = 300;
	var Speed = .085;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	Picture._x += (Targetx-Picture._x)*Speed;
}

I tried you code and I may have done something wrong. I replaced all of my code with yours but then when I ran my movie the movie clip just shot off my stage. I am not sure if I did something wrong or not.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

My code was just a sample, and I'd set Targetx to 300. You need to modify the Targetx variable to match your desired "target x postion".

Based on what you first posted it would probably be this.

onClipEvent (load) {
	var Targetx = Picture.Home._x;
	var Speed = .085;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	Picture._x += (Targetx-Picture._x)*Speed;
}
