flash4 actionscript to flash mx

[amren]

Hello anyone, whos smarter than me in flash.

I need major help, as it is known that flash four tutorials can be used for flash mx. now i have found one, on flashkit. which is so cool for my final yr project.

what im asking, its a plea really. that can anyone convert the actionscript below so it can be used in flash mx, as it is different in flash mx.

the action script below is from flash 4..

-----------------------------------------------------------



Start Drag ("drag", lockcenter)
Stop

// this is on one movie clip
-----------------------------------------------------------

Set Variable: "xPos" = GetProperty("../drag", _y)
Set Variable: "xPos" = xPos-150
Set Property ("../nav", Rotation) = GetProperty ( "../nav", _rotation )-(xPos/20)

// this is on another movie clip
-----------------------------------------------------------
Go to and Play (_currentframe-1)

// this is on the same movie clip but different frame
-----------------------------------------------------------
Set Variable: "x" = GetProperty ("../drag", _x)
If (x> 200)
Set Variable: "midX" = x - 200
If (midX <0 )
Set Variable: "midX" = - midX
End If
Set Property ("../nav", X Scale) = midX
Set Property ("../nav", Y Scale) = midX
If (GetProperty ("../nav", _xscale) <30)
Set Property ("../nav", X Scale) = "30"
Set Property ("../nav", Y Scale) = "30"
End If
If (GetProperty ("../nav", _xscale)> 100)
Set Property ("../nav", X Scale) = "100"
Set Property ("../nav", Y Scale) = "100"
End If
End If

//this is on the 3rd movie clip
-----------------------------------------------------------
On (Release)
Begin Tell Target ("/")
Go to and Stop ("thelabel")
End Tell Target
End On
// this piece of actionscript is for all the buttons made in the movie clips.

Are you talking about MX2004? Because just loaded this thing in MX only, and it works fine as is...

I did have a look at the link and downloaded the .fla where it says "Download (13 kb)" to the upper left of the start of the tutorial. I then loaded this .fla in Flash MX (not MX2004), and it works fine, Flash making the necessary corrections in the actionscript...

If you set your MX2004 to use AS1.0, it should work just as well... You could even try it with AS2.0 (I'm not on MX2004), and it might still work.

thank you let me try and illlet you know,

[amren]

by the way how and what is AS1.0, and AS2.0 and how you do this
thanks man

 

[oldnewbie]

AS1.0 is actionscript for MX only...

AS2.0 is actionscript for MX 2004... Different!

I know you can select either on MX2004 (but I'm not on MX2004) so I think it's in Preferences but not sure!
