[Flashcoders] Advanced Rollover Physics/Math...
Hi cool list... I'm trying to create a subtle/smooth rollover animation of elements that react (scale) to the mouse position, and are aware of each other, so they move out of the way for each other instead of overlapping. I came across this subject a couple of times on the internet, but I can't find it with google anymore. The following image explains the simple subject: http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/7434/testuu7.gif The following image explains more what I want design-wise: http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/5407/test2ec9.gif Somebody who can point me in the right direction? Can I do this with a physics-engine? Without gravity, but with the awareness of the other elements? How would you do it? Thanks! ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Hah, that reminds of of the classic Yugop site, back during Flash 4 days -- the one with the rotating cube preloader, the older generation among us might remember... What you're actually trying to do is a bit different, though. When you think about it, it's not unlike a tree-map, where you add weight to the node the mouse is over, and subtract from the others. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treemapping HTH, Mark On Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 2:03 PM, Sander Schuurman sander.schuur...@oswaldandruby.com wrote: Hi cool list...

You could probably pull this off with a physics engine. You could probably do it without also as a entire engine could be overkill.

RE: [Flashcoders] Advanced Rollover Physics/Math...
Do you know kinda where to start... I'm trying to figure out how I would program the awareness of the elements. There must be some kind of idle position, and every element needs to know where the mouse cursor is and to know in wich direction to move, and know how big it needs to be according to the mouseposition, and how much space there is inside his 'zone', etc. etc. pfoe -Original Message- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Steve Mathews Sent: Thursday, 12 February 2009 16:50 To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Advanced Rollover Physics/Math...

Re: [Flashcoders] Advanced Rollover Physics/Math...
and every element needs to know where the mouse cursor is and to know in wich direction to move No they don't, a parent class should take care of all of that. The elements themselves should not be aware of any of this and should be told (by the parent class) when and how to resize/animate/etc.. regards, Muzak - Original Message - From: Sander Schuurman sander.schuur...@oswaldandruby.com To: Flash Coders List flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2009 5:24 PM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Advanced Rollover Physics/Math...
