how to scale an object using actionscript?as you know scaling using motion tween is not as smooth as using as.
<objectname>._xscale = <value>;
<objectname>._yscale = <value>;
or
<objectname>._width = <value>;
<objectname>._height = <value>;
that will change the size. But there are so many ways to implement this, it’s hard to know where to start.
as a quick example, here is a prototype that will shrink an item, and remove it once it’s <1% of it’s original size:
MovieClip.prototype.shrinker = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._xscale>1) {
this._xscale--;
} else {
this.removeMovieClip();
}
}
}
I just slapped this up, so it might not work, but it looks okay.
then just call it with
<movieclip>.shrinker();
