Hey all,
I have a big pile of sprites (frames of bitmapped character animation with bit-masks) that I'd like to animate. I've done this before in the raw with C, but never with Morphic. I'm afraid I'm liable to reinvent the wheel unless I find a lead on what the right way to do this is in Morphic.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? -- Casey Ransberger _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners |

Not sure about the "right way" but would like to see an informed answer to that myself :-) In the mean time AnimatedImageMorph appears to be a good starting point, sub-classed for adding animation features (position, scaling, etc). Scratch code is a good reference for this sort of thing. -D _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners |
Good tutorial here: http://www.dmu.com/squeak/
To import your graphics, World menu / open file list Click "Name" button Select image file in upper window. Thumbnail will display in lower frame. Click "Import" button (not much happens) Close file list Extras / Graphical Imports Select image Click small menu button, select "hand me one" Drop that image into the holder On Wed, May 11, 2011 at 12:34 AM, Derek O'Connell <[hidden email]> wrote: > On 11/05/11 04:15, Casey Ransberger wrote: >> >> Hey all, >> >> I have a big pile of sprites (frames of bitmapped character animation >> with bit-masks) that I'd like to animate.
