hey. on my movie when you increase the height then click the skinny button, there is junk left behind, how do i stop this? here is the skinny button code:



on (release) {
widthV = block_mc._width;
setProperty ("block_mc", _width, widthV - 10);
}


and this is where my movie can be found:

[mdipi]

anyone? PLEASE?!

[lostinbeta]

on (release) {
_root.block_mc._width -= 10;
}

Try that.

[mdipi]

thanks lost i will try it asap!

[lostinbeta]

Let me know how it goes.

[mdipi]

nope lost:( still is weird. oh well.

[lostinbeta]

Works fine for me, considering that is used to replace setProperty.

Try changing all of your options using that method.

If you chance all of them, maybe it will work.

[mdipi]

as soon as i find time! :P i might go see HP2 today so its an if day.

[lostinbeta]

I might be going to see that Sunday...lol.

perhaps you can edit it with _xscale and _yscale instead of _width and _height... might work a little better... not sure though... personally ive never used _width or _height... just _xscale and _yscale

[lostinbeta]

Same here about the _width and _height, but the difference I noticed.....

_xscale and _yscale adjust by percentage, where _width and _height adjust by actual pixels.

[Scootman]

wow i didnt know that... i figured xscale and yscale used pixels cuz it refered to the x and y of stuff... but i wasnt sure... that sounds like its good to know..

[lostinbeta]

Yeah I figured it out when I was using a 1px by 1px square and I wanted to make it 100x100 px, but it wasn't working.

So I tried it with _width and _height and worked like a charm :)

And when I increased the scaling to more than 100 it grew, so I came to the conclusion scaling has to deal with %s.
