RE: FLASH: Scaling symbol tween on Action script?

[Kenneth.Austin]

beat me to it - there seems to be a huge delay in my mail getting to the

list, anyway, i just use a fixed value based on the position of the

draggable mc on the stage to scale the mc, rather than stepping it up and

down like this, both options work fine, but i'd be curious to see which is

quicker. in game development especially, with tons going on at once, any

speed that can be saved is essential.

Hi Jeff -


HeIf (/:dragging = True)

      Begin Tell Target ("/dragger")

            Set Variable: "current_y" = _y

            Set Variable: "current_scale" = _xscale

            If (old_y > current_y)

                  If (current_scale > 10)

                        Set Property ("", Y Scale) = _yscale - 1

                        Set Property ("", X Scale) = _xscale - 1

                  End If

            Else If (old_y < current_y)

                  If (current_scale < 100)

                        Set Property ("", Y Scale) = _yscale + 1

                        Set Property ("", X Scale) = _xscale + 1

                  End If

            End If

            Set Variable: "old_y" = current_y

      End Tell Target

End If
