How to make the vibration effect stop

1

Hi there

I did the ‘Vibration effect’ tutorial - thanks for the help… but am not sure how to let the vibration occur for a finite timeframe. i.e. how do i make it stop?

Please help!

Thanks
Jane

r u using mx? then i guess you can use delete this.onEnterFrame;
or something like that. This might work-

movieclip.onEnterFrame=function(){
i++
movieclip._x+=(Math.floor(Math.random()*2))
movieclip._y+=(Math.floor(Math.random()*2))
(i==300)?(delete this.onEnterFrame) : (movieclip._alpha=100)
}

Thanks!

I am using MX. I actually got it to work by putting the movie clip in another movie clip and then pasting that into the timeline for a finite period.

By the way, the kirupa site is excellent. A couple my classmates are using it too.

Just a note: use

if (i > 300) delete this.onEnterFrame ;

rather than

(i==300)?(delete this.onEnterFrame) : (movieclip._alpha=100)

which doesn’t really make sense :slight_smile:
