How do they do that?

Can anyone provide me with any pointers as to how to achieve that springing rectangle effect on http://www.ibknet.be/

Any help appreciated.

Do you mean the effect right after loading; where the rectangle gets big?

yes

anybody?

I’ve always wanted to know too…I think its like frame by frame tweening…

well i think its like this , very easy too.

yeah something like that might work, although that is not entirely the same so i’m not sure :-\

oh yea why the extra layer above the shape tween?

i always separate all in layer. the layer above is for the text.
of course is not the same, but thats the idea.

yup tweens - actionscripting the whole thing with curves, rectangles and fills would require at least a dozen math field medal winners. Or a bunchful or kaxes or ilyases…

would it be a shape tween? or a frame by frame thing?!?!

A guy on were-here forums posted this

which seems to do it mathmatically.

wow, i thought it’d take many more lines than the amount he used. :-\
