numChildren:int [read-only] | Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flash CS4 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Returns the number of IKJoint objects branching from the specified IKJoint. This method does not account for sub-branches. Traverse each child branch to traverse the whole IKArmature object.
Implementation

rotation:Number [read-only] | Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flash CS4 |

speed | property |
speed:Number| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |

The rotation speed degree of freedom; the xTranslation and
yTranslation properties respect the same speed setting.
Implementation
public function get speed():Number public function set speed(value:Number):voidspringDamping | property |
springDamping:Number| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flash CS5 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
The spring damping value. Damping adds spring resistance when used in conjunction
with the strength property. It affects the rate of decay for the
spring, which is the amount of time between the initial movement and when the bones connected to the
joint return to their rest position. The range is from 0 (no resistance, the default) to 100
(highly damped). A maximum damping value does not negate strength With damping at 100 and strength
at 1, there is still an effect. Because of the rigidity of the joint, it may be difficult to notice,
but there is a physics-based reaction nonetheless.
Implementation
public function get springDamping():Number public function set springDamping(value:Number):voidExample ( How to use this example )
The following example applies randomly generated
IKJoint.springStrength and IKJoint.springDamping
values for each joint of the first armature on the stage. This example comes from Mike Welsh.
import fl.ik.*;
var armature:IKArmature = IKManager.getArmatureAt(0);
armature.springsEnabled = true;
var joint:IKJoint = armature.rootJoint;
while(joint)
{
joint.springStrength = Math.random() * 10;
joint.springDamping = Math.random() * 100;
if(joint.numChildren > 0)joint = joint.getChildAt(0);
else joint = null;

| Product Version: | Flash CS5 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
The spring strength value. This is the amount of spring in the joint. The range is from 1-100, with 0 being rigid (the default Flash behavior) and 100 being a very loose spring that is mostly controlled by physics.
Implementation
public function get springStrength():Number public function set springStrength(value:Number):voidExample ( How to use this example )
