animating curtains to open on a stage. 1

[tommytx]

Please help, does anyone know of a tutorial that aninmates curtains on a stage to open and close. Or even a working example on a site so I could possibly contact the designer to buy the source code. I am very interested in learning how to make curtains on a stage open realistically. I am doing some Elvis Impersonator stuff, and want to play the music and then open the curtains etc.
Any assistance toward the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Tom Chambers

You could try something like this, but, obviously with better curtains

Thanks adam14. I would never have thought to do it that way. I can use this in a lot of other areas also. It even allows me to set the speed of the curtain movement by changing the -= 5 to say -=1 etc.

If anyone wants to check it out, look in the action script section at what he did in the example.

Thanks again.

Oh! This is great, but if anyone else has ideas on how to control curtains, I would love to hear from you also.

What kind of control are you looking for?
