Question

Resize one side of sprite and interrupt tween

Hey,

In my Actionscript 3 program I would like to resize a sprite, but only one one side. The bottom position, left side and right side shouldn't change, only the top (stretching). However, I have no idea how to accomplish this.

The second problem that has to do with resizing the sprite, is that I would like to interrupt the resizing with a keyboard event. When the sprite is resizing, a user should be able to press a button. This event should be excecuted before the resizing (tween?) has finished. Is this possible?

Hopefully someone can help me.

Thanks in advance

you want to resize part of a sprite or a movieclip?

if a sprite, was that something you created with the drawing api?

At the moment a sprite, but I'm not limited to that choice.

And it is indeed created by the drawing api, but this is also open for discussion. Do you have an idea how to accomplish what I desire?

you need to use separate objects to control separate parts of your sprite.  ie, create child sprites for each part you need to independently size.
