Hi:
I found the flowchart on this site searching google. I was wondering if the Fla's are available- else if the author has a tutorial on how to keep objects connected when dragging.

  2. One of the more complicated files using alot of actionscript. Very hard to understand and even harder to set up. however the main principle behind it is quiet simple.

    • you first need to be able to drag clips around
    • then you'll need to know how to make the line stretch from one point to another point on the screen. This I stole from a flash movie called "strum" available over at uncontrol.

    once you get those working you'll realise that each line is a movie clip and each dot is also button. You will then procedure to build an array which tells the lines which movie clips they are supposed to stay attached to.

    each time you drag a button, you then call a function which moves the lines to their respective spots (using the array).

    that's the jist of it.

    If you can't do that then you could always just draw your chart in photoshop and export it as a jpeg.

    You searched through 50 pages of google results? well you seem determined enough. if you still want the fla email me and I'll send it.

  10. Yeah. I'm attempting to find something to help create an interactive flow chart where the user can click certain boxes and have them open up whether on click or on mouse over.I guess one would have to learn Flash and create it...
