(Beta)

Package	fl.motion
Class	public class AnimatorFactory
Inheritance	AnimatorFactory AnimatorFactoryBase Object

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Version:

Flash CS3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9.0.28.0, AIR 1.0

The AnimatorFactory class provides ActionScript-based support to associate one Motion object with multiple display objects.

Use the AnimatorFactory constructor to create an AnimatorFactory instance. Then, use the methods inherited from the AnimatorFactoryBase class to associate the desired properties with display objects.

	Property		Defined By
		constructor : Object A reference to the class object or constructor function for a given object instance.	Object
		motion : MotionBase [read-only] The MotionBase instance that the AnimatorFactoryBase instance and its target objects are associated with.	AnimatorFactoryBase
		sceneName : String [write-only] A reference for exported scenes, for 3D motion, so the scene can be loaded into a parent timeline.	AnimatorFactoryBase
		transformationPoint : Point [write-only] The point of reference for rotating or scaling a display object.	AnimatorFactoryBase
		transformationPointZ : int [write-only] The z-coordinate point of reference for rotating or scaling a display object.	AnimatorFactoryBase

	Method		Defined By
		AnimatorFactory(motion:MotionBase, motionArray:Array = null) Creates an AnimatorFactory instance you can use to assign the properties of a MotionBase object to display objects.	AnimatorFactory
		addTarget(target:DisplayObject, repeatCount:int = 0, autoPlay:Boolean = true, startFrame:int = -1, useCurrentFrame:Boolean = false):AnimatorBase Creates and returns an AnimatorBase instance whose target property is set to the DisplayObject (if applicable) that is the targetName property of the targetParent, and whose Motion property is stored in the AnimatorFactoryBase instance upon creation.	AnimatorFactoryBase
		addTargetInfo(targetParent:DisplayObject, targetName:String, repeatCount:int = 0, autoPlay:Boolean = true, startFrame:int = -1, useCurrentFrame:Boolean = false, initialPosition:Array = null, zIndex:int = -1, placeholderName:String = null, instanceFactoryClass:Class = null):AnimatorBase References the parent DisplayObjectContainer and then creates and returns an AnimatorBase instance whose target property is set to the DisplayObject (if applicable) that is the targetName property of the targetParent, and whose Motion property is stored in the AnimatorFactoryBase instance upon creation.	AnimatorFactoryBase
		hasOwnProperty(name:String):Boolean Indicates whether an object has a specified property defined.	Object
		isPrototypeOf(theClass:Object):Boolean Indicates whether an instance of the Object class is in the prototype chain of the object specified as the parameter.	Object
		propertyIsEnumerable(name:String):Boolean Indicates whether the specified property exists and is enumerable.	Object
		setPropertyIsEnumerable(name:String, isEnum:Boolean = true):void Sets the availability of a dynamic property for loop operations.	Object
		toLocaleString():String Returns the string representation of this object, formatted according to locale-specific conventions.	Object
		toString():String Returns the string representation of the specified object.	Object
		valueOf():Object Returns the primitive value of the specified object.	Object

Constructor Detail

Examples How to use this example

MotionBaseExample.as

This example shows how to animate a sprite with the use of the MotionBase and AnimatorFactory classes. A MotionBase object is assigned arrays of x and y coordinates, and is then used to create an AnimatorFactory object. The AnimatorFactory is finally targeted to a sprite, in the form of a filled rectangle.
