I don't know why Flash does this, but if a rotation angle is greater than 180 degrees, it flips to the negative value. To Flash 185 degrees is the same as -175 degrees. While that may be technically...

Just wanted to pass along my thanks as this solved my problem as well.
;)

I am banging my head against this problem. The Josh Davis example works but not great. The code is circa Flash 4 and not very elegant.
I found a perfect of a OS X like menu that works great.

Here is what I found;

For the MC

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
myNum = _root.SizeNum;
_xscale = _xscale*.6+(myNum-_xscale)*.9;
_yscale = _yscale*.6+(myNum-_yscale)*.9;
}

What is the general concensus about optimizing jpegs for use in Flash;

Exporting from PS at 100% and then setting the image quality in the publish settings of Flash, or the reverse?

A thousand thanks to gSOLO_01.
I guess I owe you some food now.

However I would like to expand his explanation a bit for those who are newbies to programming like myself.

First;

This ONLY...

I am trying to do the same thing you are describing.
gSOLO's answer is using JavaScript, right?

Thank you !
It's funny you mentioned the music. I had several different soundtracks on my last portfolios and people complained that is was annoying to have music play if they were already...

Hey everybody. Could you please give me some feedback (good or bad) on my portfolio?
Thanx! :D Zinger Media

Functional. The moving sky BG runs kinda choppy. Maybe up the FPS?
Now take a look at my new portfolio and tell me what you think.

My last 2 portfolios did not bring in the amount of work I was hoping for.
I have attempted to create something that is a little more traditional/less experimental.
What do you think?

Not bad. The buttons could use more interesting roll effects.
Take a look at mine and tell me what you think (also in progress).

Very nice. Great transitions. The bouncing letter is cute.

Loved the audio in the intro. Visuals were stellar too.

I totally loved it. Very slick.

Very beautiful.

The page itself is good. Very clean. Kind of a departure from the design of the entry portal. One question, are the gray bars on either side of the links going to be active scroll bars at some point?...

Thanks for the feedback everybody.
It was a good experiment, but I am going to chuck the whole thing and start over.

It has a great snap to it. I'm not crazy about the hokey look of the buildings, but they do go well with the overall color scheme.

Good use of 3D. Colors are too much. Rollovers need to be smoother.

Yeah, I was thinking of adding a dropshadow or something. I like the machine idea. Maybe a curuit board type thing.

If I go into IE's tools/internet options, and delete all offline content, it shows up. However if I hit refresh, the same thing happens with the black screen.

I got nothing but a black screen from your URL.

Any and all feedback would be appreciated.
What works and what doesn't?
(either technically or aesthetically).

It took a long time to load for me too(and I have DSL).
The music is a good loop. Doesn't seem repetative. The text is a bit small. The roll out and in of content over the "wall" is cute, but gets...
