With this messenger you create highly customizable
circular movements.
The Background color
The background color will be used as the background for the
effect if no background image supplied. Otherwise background
color will be used as the background only during preloading
of applet.
The Text
Two colors provided for text - initial and final. When text
appears it displayed in initial color. Initial color gradually
changed to final color as effect goes on, text will be displayed
in final color when half of transition pause will be reached,
then it will be gradually transformed back to initial color.
Speed and Ellipse alignement values
Speed of the effect determined by X, Y and rotation speed
variables and transition pause. X and Y speed defined in pixels
per frame. At the beginning letters placed at perimeter of
ellipse which centered at center of applet and have width
and height equal to half of applet's width and height. When
effect started ellipse radius decreased each frame by X and
Y speed values, so letters moved to center and then back to
outer bounds when radius became negative. Rotation speed defined
in degrees per frame and determine how much rotation will
be applied to letters on perimeter. So if X and Y speed are
set to zero and rotation speed defined, letters will be rotated
on the perimeter of ellipse. Combination of different speed
values might give a lot of visually different effects. When
timer will exceed defined transition pause value effect will
be repeated again with next text string. Last by not least
- if Ellipse alignment flag not checked letters will be positioned
vertically (as usual). If this flag is checked letters will
be aligned to fit ellipse curve.
Other settings
There are other settings that are discussed on the following
topics from the Anfy Flash documentation:
