1.Using the TransitionManager Class in AS3

The TransitionManager Class provides ActionScript developers with 10 ready-made transition effects that can be applied directly onto any MovieClips. The 10 available transitions can be used either as an ‘in’ or an ‘out’ transition and can also be further customized to suit the needs of the particular project in which the transitions are used in. This tutorial will teach you everything you need to know about using the TransitionManager in ActionScript 3.0. Check the example below to see the ten transitions in action.

2.Using Tween Class for Movement

Hi, for this tutorial, we’ll be dealing with actionscripted movement using ease class built in flash mx and higher. Actionscripted movement can be attained just by changing the “_x” values and/or “_y” values of a movieclip. However in this tutorial, we will go beyond that. Will be having more than a linear movement, and that is the easing class.

The bounce effect for example is an effect from a tween class, you can make the movement more fluid by adding this effect, and hey, its only one line of code!

Steps

1) Create a new document, using the default dimensions and using 35 as base FPS.
2) Draw a circle using the oval tool
3) Convert it to a symbol and name the instance as “circle_mc”
4) Create a new layer
5) On the newly created layer, add this action

4.Flash animation in code. Tweens in ActionScript2 & ActionScript3.

Flash and animation are the two things which do not exist separately. I think Flash was created for animations.

In this article, I would like to describe some techniques which you may use to create Flash animations in code, in your AS2 or AS3 code.

What is the animation in terms of code? My definition is that animation of any object is the smooth changing of its properties, which might have effect on object’s location, shape, size, transparency and so on. The task for actionscript developer is to implement that smooth actions.
