Actionscript Animation Classes
Posted on 01 September 2006 (03:27 PM)
I was browsing through my code library the other day and bumped into some Actionscript Animation classes which I made a while ago. I just thought I'd share.
I haven't done anything with Flash lately, since I don't consider it a proper web development tool. I think it's great for presentations, visual gimmicks, games and cartoons, but a website with the primairy goal to deliver information to a wide audience shouldn't be build in Flash.
Nevertheless, these classes might be of some use to someone. The whole package can be downloaded here as a RAR-archive and contains the following files (click on any of the filenames to view an example page):
It's not much, I admit. I created them a while ago with the intention of creating a huge class-package containing every animation you might imagine, but I got to busy devoting myself to web standards and accessibility.
Anyway, they're up for grabs, use and abuse 'em as you see fit.

I got little offended when you said that flash is not a proper web developement tool. I guess you do need to brush up on the latest of flash platform.

Nice site. Thanks.
I agree with mo. Flash is way more suited for websites. I think we just need to figure out how best we can use it. Anyways, thanks for classes.
Forgive my n00byness, but I just can't seem to get anything to work. How do I implement these - I copied and pasted the exact code from Elliptical.as and nothing worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. - Thanx

Hm, that's odd.
Ensure that you have placed the .as file in the same folder as your .fla file and you have created a movie clip on the stage with the correct instance name, which you use in your Actionscript.
Let me know if you need more help
