Hi All, I’m brand spanking new to this world of flash. I have made a ripple effect I plan on using on my website, but I would like to make the ripples only appear when clicked on. I found a tutorial on this but it was for flash 4 and I’m using MX. Since I’m new to this actionscripting is something I have not mastered yet, so I don’t know how to translate ity from Flash 4 to MX. Can anyone help me?
well show us the code!
:beam: n’ we’ll see what we can do!
I would also enjoy seeing the code for this ‘ripple’ effect!
Please upload!!!
with attachment!!!
:beam: :chinaman: 
=) :goatee:
I tried sending the fla. but it’s too big but here is the where I got it from I used the basic water ripple at the top. Hope this helps
reminds me of a sig I did a while back

monkey - yay
yeah that’s basically what I’m wanting
See that’s the code I wanna see from senocular!
However ratchez, your movie is all done with masking and tweens!
You could redo it without clips and keep it all on the main timeline put a keyframe on frame 2 and stick the code below into frame 1.
stop();
this.onMouseDown = function(){
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
mines masking and tweens… actually its been a while since I made it (its flash 5) so I dont remember. Youre more than welcome to the source to anything I have.

( :downloads it so he can see how it was made: )
Thanks Senocular Hopefully this will help:beam:
actually looking back on it, its not exactly the easiest thing to follow… I did though (surprisingly) do a lot of commenting. If you get totally baffled, let me know and I can walk through it.
kewl I let you know if I need further help:beam:
Took me a while but I kinda got my mind around it. seems mx might have some easier ways to do it.
Great file though!
oh yeah, there was some workarounds for the ripple movement in F5, but MX wasnt out then 
masking would be a lot easier especialyl now that its completely dynamic
