Forums » Help » Scale Animation in Impact??

Hi everyone,

I need to make an animation that shows the object come closer to screen, what I need is set the scale center to (length/2, 0) and then scale it bigger in 2 seconds,

So my question is :

1. Any scale animation in impact? (Something like flash tween class)
2. if yes, can I set the anchor point to others instead of center???

Thanks for any kindly help :)

There is a very recent topic about this very thing:

1. Scaling: http://impactjs.com/forums/impact-engine/suggestion-adding-scale-to-entities

2. The only anchor points I'm aware of is for rotation.

is there no way to make the transition animation of scaling??

In other way, is that possible to draw 5 frames that pretend the object become bigger and bigger? (That's mean a smaller object image to bigger object image is contained in a same size box)

Thanks

You can do it, theoretically, but it would be both very slow and ugly (really pixellated)

You would be much better off drawing the 5 frames, which means you avoid both the performance penalty and the ugly factor.

I don't mean to resurrect such an old thread, however if anyone ever comes across this looking for a solution, I think the following should work:

@joncom, nice example how to make a simple Impact plugin.

@stahlmanDesign: thanks :)
