FLASH: using math to establish relationship between Y coords and scale?

[Kurt Dommermuth]

Axel,


Thank you very much!!


Why can't I think like this?


Anyway, in case anyone is following this, I had to make minor adjustments 

to your suggestion...


Set Variable: "randomY" = Random (35) + 125

Set Variable: "Scale" = int ((randomY-125) * 80/35 + 20 )


as opposed to way you had written it...


"randomY" = random(35) + 125

"scale" = int (( (random-125) * 80/35 + 20 ) * 100


Again, thank-you!

>in other words you need random y between 125 and 160 and related scale

>between 20 and 100 (or between  0 and 80 plus 20)

>"random" = random(35)

>"randomY" = random + 125

>"scale" = int (( random * 80/35 + 20 ) * 100

>80 = 100 - 20 and it is max related to max random 35 -> 80/35

>you can also do that way

>"randomY" = random(35) + 125

>"scale" = int (( (random-125) * 80/35 + 20 ) * 100
