Poker timer

[dingoman]

Hi,

I want to build a timer like in the picture I have attached to this post.

 

is there any way to build it with out uses of movieclips ( gotoAndPlay(1) etc') but only with code?

 

Thanks

Dan

Hi,

 

If you want to have that thick stroke animate without using any graphical symbols it is actually a bit challenging to do it all with code. The gradient is also another challenge, but I imagine you could use the animated stroke to work as a mask.

 

If you look at this page here http://www.greensock.com/loadermax/ you will see that we have used something similar in some of our demos.

 

You can download those files via the link in FAQ 9 on the bottom of that page.

 

Feel free to look at the source of ProgressCircleLite.as to get a sense of what is involved for that effect. You'll see it is quite complex. That ProgressCircleLite is only intended for GreenSock demos and is not a product that we support or advertise.

 

From what I can tell, this product here would easily be worth the $3

Hope this info is of some help
