Well, how's about an animated flash spoke wheel with "Bling" I might add.
Please note, as animations of wheels go, the highlights stay put rather than rotating. The wheel is animated in the same method as clock hands, however in order to not confuse the animating process, whatever could be simplified, I did, or merged. The highlights of the wheel is on the background layer, however the tred is animated. As the tire is black, this discrepancy does not appear to be a visual error.
Couldn't miss an opportunity to post an on-topic Flash animation from Xara Pro :)
Very nice Intbel but your tyre walls are shredding (The text isn't spinning corectly)
I know and I don't know what to do about it apart from converting the group to a bitmap and that is 'orrible.
Incidentally, the reason I put the stop & go buttons in is 'cos the rear wheel kept stopping while the front wheel didn't and that also looked 'orrible only more 'orrible than wayward bits o'text.
Weird that - but that is a query for another thread ...
Yes Raymond you were dropping more than your 'Aitches in that demo but still good. The old spokes theme is still very much alive and animated wee will never get "tyred" of it.
Sally's wheel I love it, how about attaching a car to it/them. Wheel meet again.
Good idea, but it took a long time to hash out all the issues with the tire spinning correctly. I had to find the right numbers to animate it smoothly especially after adding the text to the wheel. Ought to duplicate the wheel and see how it operates on one file to be sure all is a-okay first. Be easier to solve that before complicating it with the rest of the drawing, but it is what had crossed my mind. Of course, if only one wheel rotates, we just borrow the way to fix the thread from Drifter's Corvette embellished with Ringtail's girl and animated by Raymond. No one will mind, will they?
I would be honored! :)
Actually, the Austin Healey 3000 was noted for having cheap bit map lettering on the tyres that regularly fell off due to the centrifugal force on the pixels!
You must remember that this was in the very early 60's, pre-vector graphics. :p
No, really, it's TRUE!!! :eek: :cool:
