Easily create advanced effects on a 'field' of particles

The FieldSweeper component lets you generate a 2-dimensional field of movie clips to which 'sweeping' or wave generating effects can be applied. Create visually compelling animations such as wind through grass, waves, and mouse-enabled hunt games with a few mouse clicks! Choose movie clips you wish to use as particles & sweepers, set appearance, sweeper and interaction properties, and export your movie to see your particle field in action! Sweeper movie clips trigger a 'reaction' from particles in the field (such as to play their timeline) when they cross over. A custom UI panel is provided to give an easy and intuitive to generate a field on the stage and change settings for your component.

See Tutorial below.

• Easy to use UI that lets you generate a field of particles on the stage at author time
• Apply alpha, size and other properties to particles
• Randomize certain properties to create variations in the particle field
• Generate your field at runtime, at authortime, or from selected movie clips that you place manually on the stage
• Choose your own movie clips to be used as particles
• Choose your movie clips to be used as 'sweepers' that trigger reactions in the particles when they cross over them
• QA approved by Adobe
• No coding needed!

Features:

• The FieldSweeper component lets you create particle fields in flash that react to mouse touches or 'sweeper' movie clips that move over them
• Different emitter types provided that allow you to generate particle fields from a rectangle or oval
• Choose a variety of physical properties like alpha, size, grid size and staggering to vary and randomize the field to your liking.
• Clear particles from the scene at any time
• Extensible. Write event handler functions in your particle movie clips to create custom behavior for what happens when a particle comes in contact with the mouse or sweeper.
• Use the custom UI to choose movie clips from the library to be used as particles, and to automatically generate your field
• Use in conjunction with our Particulator component to generate a field for you.
• Specify movie clips on the stage to be used as particles or 'sweepers'
• Create particles on any movie clip you specify as a 'stage'
