cool effect

Thank you so much my friends!

interesting!!.

its like watching fireworks last one is really nice, keep it up

Hi – this is a great effect. I just bought it. I am having trouble figuring out how to do this part: “You can make any of your word appear with this effect by using the symbol “word” and giving it a word you want… wordmoviename.word = “FLASHDEN”; and also applying the settings too.”

I figured out how to use the word symbol (instead of the words symbol). But I cannot figure out how to make that symbol use my own word (it just says FLASHDEN ) and how to make it so the xml settings are used as well.

Thanks!

cool

Thank you so much my friends!

For jeffmrosen: Thanks for purchasing the file.

The xml file is for the “words” symbol. The “words” symbol loads all the words and settings from the xml file and then does the animation accordingly.

To use only a single word. Drag and drop the “word” symbol on the stage. Then name it with some name… for eg. “wordmovie”... now assign it the settings and the word…

wordmovie.word = “MY NEW WORD ” ;
wordmovie.radius = 50 ;
wordmovie.rotation = 2 ;
wordmovie.rounds = 1 ;
wordmovie.placementspeed = 5 ;
wordmovie.charspacing = -5 ;

The single word movie has only 5 settings to be applied logically, the other 5 settings are for the full “words” movie.

You can put as many single words on the stage as you want. But, they should have different names.

Rehmat -

Thanks for you help. I still can’t quite get it to work. This is what I did: Drop “word” onto stage. Named that layer “wordmovie” – but I am not sure how to rename the word symbol on the stage?. Then I right clicked the keyframe and selected Actions. Under Scene 1, I selected “wordmovie: Frame 1” and then typed in the settings you listed into the scripting area:

wordmovie.word = “MY NEW WORD ” ; wordmovie.radius = 50 ; wordmovie.rotation = 2 ; wordmovie.rounds = 1 ; wordmovie.placementspeed = 5 ; wordmovie.charspacing = -5 ;

Saved the fla file. Selected control > Test Movie. The swf still plays the default value from the original word movie (not my “MY NEW WORD ”.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong?? Thanks again for your help on this.

Hi Jeff!

You have put the code on the right place. But, you didn’t name the “word” symbol. You just renamed the layer. To name the “word” symbol that you drop on the stage… first select it… to select… click the symbol that you dropped on the stage… it will just be a small white dot. After you select it… open the property toolbox and write the name “wordmovie” in the “Instance Name” text box and press enter. Now test the movie and it will just go fine.

Also, please name the layer as “wordmovie” as you have done previously for your convenience as because, otherwise you will see “Layer1(or 2 or so on): Frame 1” on the code window and you may get confused with that. So, remember you have to rename both the layer and the “word” symbol on the Stage (not in the library). If you still find any problem in doing that then please just e-mail me and I will send you a file with an example.

I have just purchased this item but it will not open in my version of Flash 8.0. Does anyone know what is the version compatibility is with this file? or how to open it in Flash 8.0?

Thanks,

Mike.

Hi mickland!

The file opens with CS3 +. Please check the compatibility on the right hand side.

To open it in flash 8, I have saved it in that old version now. And, sent you an e-mail with the flash 8 fla file. Please check.

Oh! how do I contact you? You send me an e-mail first. So, that I send you the file.

hey man, cant seem to open the file. I got flash 8 help no cs3

Hi aio193!

Send me a message on my mail. I will give you the flash 8 version.

I would like to be able to give explicit _x and _y positions, without randomizing, and only have it play one time. Can you tell me where in the action script code I can make the changes. I believe I see where in the word and words movie clips. but it would help if you could give explicit instructions.

Great job. Thank you.
