hi, ilyaslamasse, is your footer lines generated by actionscript ?? if yes, could you explain me how to generate lines like that but just vertically’?

thanks:rambo:

Haha, everyone has its little secrects (mine is Flash Math Creativity by the way).:slight_smile:

Actually, the line is a movie clip that I drew before, then they are duplicated with a random angle. But I don’t understand what you want to do: is it drawing dynamically with Flash? If so, look at the tute about the drawing board in Flash MX, you should find your answer there.

pom :asian:

Hey Eberth,

My footer uses Duplicated Movie Clips too. I can’t really explain how I did it, took me FOREVER (I am a newbie). Kirupa has a tutorial on Duplicating Movie Clips here http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/duplicate.asp

I know it isn’t exactly what you wanted, but it is where I started. You just gotta mess around with it and be creative=)

Nice footer, LostinBeta! But the problem is that once the duplicates are done, there’s nothing moving there. So what I did (and you can try that) is reinitialize your counter when it’s over. I don’t know exactly how you did your thing, but it has to look like

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
      if (i<100){
         duplicateMovieClip("myClip","myClip"+i,i);
      }
      // You can add this:
      else i=0;
}

Just a thought…

Hey ilyaslamasse,

I basically just wanted it to come out and draw the movie then stop. I did have something to reinitialize my counter, but I decided to remove it. I want to add a replay button though, if its possible.

Ok, so I think I found a way to keep it running and keep it interesting. I just adjusted the rotation of the line each time it starts over, so it creates a “new” pattern. That way the line doesn’t just loop over itself.
