Screen Shake using the Spry Javascript effect library.
Step 1 -- Download the Spry library from Adobe
Step 2 -- Upload to your webserver "SpryEffects.js" -- There are many interesting and useful functions in the Spry framework but we are only concerned with making the screen shake at this time.
Step 3 -- View the source for this page and note the 3 Javascript calls.
2 of them are in the section above the page <head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/SpryEffects.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function Shake()
{
vitApp.start()
}
</script>
One of them is in the <body> right after the embedding code for for the Vitalize file.
<script type="text/javascript">
var vitApp = new Spry.Effect.Shake('game');
</script>
Step 4 -- One very important item to note is we used a <div> around our embed code and the container has an "id"
<div align="center" class="container" id="game">
This allows the javascript to know what to shake.
Step 5 -- Inside your Vitalize file you need to add a Vitalize plug in object
You can then use the action "Javascript - Call Function". The function we want to call is named "Shake"
Notice this is the same name as the 3rd Javascript function above.
