Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Starting with Flex 4.0, Adobe recommends that you use the spark.effects.Rotate class as an alternative to this class. |
The Rotate effect rotates a component around a specified point. You can specify the coordinates of the center of the rotation, and the starting and ending angles of rotation. You can specify positive or negative values for the angles.
Note: To use the Rotate effect with text, you must use an embedded font, not a device font.
MXML SyntaxHide MXML SyntaxThe <mx:Rotate>
tag
inherits all of the tag attributes of its superclass,
and adds the following tag attributes:
<mx:Rotate id="ID" angleFrom="0" angleTo="360" originX="0" originY="0" />

Method | Defined By | ||
---|---|---|---|
Constructor. | Rotate | ||
addEventListener(type:String, listener:Function, useCapture:Boolean = false, priority:int = 0, useWeakReference:Boolean = false):void
Registers an event listener object with an EventDispatcher object so that the listener
receives notification of an event. | EventDispatcher | ||
Captures the current values of the relevant properties
on the effect's targets and saves them as end values. | Effect | ||
Captures the current values of the relevant properties
of an additional set of targets
Flex uses this function when a data change
effect is run.
| Effect | ||
Captures the current values of the relevant properties
on the effect's targets. | Effect | ||
Creates a single effect instance and initializes it. | Effect | ||
Takes an Array of target objects and invokes the
createInstance() method on each target. | Effect | ||
Removes event listeners from an instance
and removes it from the list of instances. | Effect | ||
Dispatches an event into the event flow. | EventDispatcher | ||
Interrupts an effect that is currently playing,
and jumps immediately to the end of the effect. | Effect | ||
Returns an Array of Strings, where each String is the name
of a property changed by this effect. | Effect | ||
Checks whether the EventDispatcher object has any listeners registered for a specific type
of event. | EventDispatcher | ||
Indicates whether an object has a specified property defined. | Object | ||
Indicates whether an instance of the Object class is in the prototype chain of the object specified
as the parameter. | Object | ||
Pauses the effect until you call the resume() method. | Effect | ||
Begins playing the effect. | Effect | ||
Indicates whether the specified property exists and is enumerable. | Object | ||
Removes a listener from the EventDispatcher object. | EventDispatcher | ||
Resumes the effect after it has been paused
by a call to the pause() method. | Effect | ||
Plays the effect in reverse, if the effect is currently playing,
starting from the current position of the effect. | Effect | ||
Sets the availability of a dynamic property for loop operations. | Object | ||
Stops the effect, leaving the effect targets in their current state. | Effect | ||
Returns the string representation of this object, formatted according to locale-specific conventions. | Object | ||
Returns the string representation of the specified object. | Object | ||
Returns the primitive value of the specified object. | Object | ||
Checks whether an event listener is registered with this EventDispatcher object or any of
its ancestors for the specified event type. | EventDispatcher |
angleFrom | property |
public var angleFrom:Number = 0
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
The starting angle of rotation of the target object, expressed in degrees. Valid values range from 0 to 360.
The default value is 0.
angleTo | property |
public var angleTo:Number = 360
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
The ending angle of rotation of the target object, expressed in degrees. Values can be either positive or negative.
If the value of angleTo
is less
than the value of angleFrom
,
the target rotates in a counterclockwise direction.
Otherwise, it rotates in clockwise direction.
If you want the target to rotate multiple times,
set this value to a large positive or small negative number.
The default value is 360.
hideFocusRing | property |
hideFocusRing:Boolean
[override] Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Determines whether the effect should hide the focus ring when starting the effect. The target itself is responsible for the actual hiding of the focus ring.
The default value is true.
Implementation
override public function get hideFocusRing():Boolean
override public function set hideFocusRing(value:Boolean):void
originX | property |
public var originX:Number
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
The x-position of the center point of rotation. The target rotates around this point. The valid values are between 0 and the width of the target.
The default value is 0.
originY | property |
public var originY:Number
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
