I have a gallery where passing over the image a rectangle drops down showing the caption for the image. The informations are read from an XML file and some of my images don't have a caption, for those emails I want to avoid the tween.

I have made an image gallery using a tutorial by blue chiIt is basically constituated of thumbs that once clicked let a large image appear. I now want to add captions to these large images, on a rollover. I tried applying the tutorial "Hover Captions" to my movie, without success.Being relatively new to all that language, I am not sure it is appliable, and mostly where I should put it, i.e, should i include it to my main timeline or to each image (which are movie clips), on an other layer and so on.Here is the code I have for now
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("container",1);
import mx.transitions.Tween;
[code].....
[Code]...
this is the code i got from a tutorial....here the images are loader and when the mouse is over each image the CAPTION is shown under the image in a text box. but what i need is...i want the CAPTION to appear when i click on the image(not on mouse over), but i cant find any mouseover event here as well.
I've finally finished my flash xml gallery, and have tested it to my complete satisfaction using dreamweaver. When I do a preview from dreamweaver, or just open up the gallery html file from explorer the swf loads the xml file and all the images flawlessly, everything works. However when I move the site for testing on my mac laptop it loads the xml file but not the images. When I upload it to my test website it doesn't even load the xml file. I just copied the root folder over in all cases I dont understand why it wont work. You can see it here: [URL]
Could this be some export setting I am using incorrectly? Why would it work locally on a windows machine, and not locally on a mac or online on either. I tried re exporting the swf after saving it as CS3 from CS4 and changing the local playback security to only allow network. So now it loads the xml data online but not locally. Thumbnails still aren't showing up online though.
The site is build up entirely in flash. I let flash publish with the option scale: default (show all).
Can that be the reason why the pictures on the site look so bad? The picture looks so unsmooth, you see so many pixels in the borders. How come?

Based on the kirupa xml gallery I am loading a random image opposed to starting with the first image in the xml file. It works fine, but I have not been able to figure out how to get the accompanying caption to load with the specific image.
Code:
function loadImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
[code]...
I know it has to do with this: "description[0];" I'm just not sure what to change the '0' too....?
I'm trying to find out how to make a simple image gallery which changes image upon a mouse click on a button, when a button is pressed I want the image to slide in from the left into the viewable area and then when another image is selected I want the previous image that was viewed to remain in the screen and then the new image slide across over the top to replace the image.
I can get the images to slide across from the left upon a mouse click however I can't change the layer order so if image 6 is viewed and then I click to see image 1, the image will slide into place however it will be below image 6 so therefore not viewable.
I don't have an example of what I'm after but I hope my explanation was good enough, I've seen this been done in javascript but I have to use flash and am unable to replicate the effect I'm after
I have this piece of code to change images. I was trying to figure out how you could put a timer on the code, so if the image has been displayed for say 5 seconds it diverts to the next image automatically? Also if it's not to hard, when it has played to the end to divert to the 1st image.

Just wondering if anyone knows about the project I am trying to start, uploading images from flash using php is fine but wondering if anyone knows how to create dynamic xml from php and it takes all the image names from the same folder where those images have been uploaded. So we can load all the images in image gallery through xml into flash.
View 5 RepliesI have found an excellent tutorial and source file for a 3D image gallery. However I would like to make the thumbnail click thorugh to a url link when pressed rather than loading the image into the gallery.
Currently the images load in through actionscript. Is there a way to amend this script so you can specify that a thumbnail clicked links through to a url, like you would with a normal button instance rather than loading the image. Here is a link to the file and tutorial. The actionscript is on the top layer within the file.[URL]...

View 9 RepliesI am am not a developer but have bought a template which I am modifying to suit my needs. I have made most of the modifications but and stuck on how to change the animation for the image gallery. When I move from one picture to the next the animation effect is something like a bubble burst. This is too flamboyant for me. I would like to change it to something more sleek but have no clue where to start.

I have an image gallery but I can't seem to get the previous image removed. I have two functions:
ActionScript Code:
function clearLoader():void {
try {
var li:LoaderInfo = slideLoader.contentLoaderInfo;
[Code]....
But in some way not the previous image is removed, but the one before that. Annoying, because if image 1 is larger than image 2, image 1 stays on the background. It is only when loading image 3 the first image is removed from the stage.
So I'm having some trouble modifying this script. I have a text box so a user can go to a certain image (In my case page). So if the user type 5 it should go to image 5I've tried numerous methods, none of which are working (they work but then my next and previous buttons aren't working properly). I know I need to just get go to the number image in the array but the way the script is set up it seems I would have to change the current position value but that doesn't seem to be the case.Am I over complicating this?
ActionScript Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
f (loaded) {

I would like to be able to add the functionality of being able to load different galleries from a menu without loading a new mc with gallery inside it. I managed to botch the file up pretty good on my own, and was wondering if there is a ready answer nearby.So I'm thinking have but1, but2 and but3, with a seperate xml file for each. What would you recommend for a smooth way to swap the the xml files to the gallery, and load the first image of the new xml file? Also, can it be done with one big ol' xml file while keeping the galleries seperate? It's not necessary, but could be handy, and save some loading.It would also be interesting to apply the same principle to the resizing script that Scotty has in that big Resizing thread, just a thought.

View 5 RepliesI want it to while still easing into place like the iphone does. For example my stage is 550px. The drag and throw MC is 1650. That's 550x3. If the first image is showing starting at x axis 0 and you drag to the left it will ease into place stopping and showing the second image stopping the image at x axis 0. And the same thing scrolling to the next one and scrolling back. So the code is below and I've attached the movie that I'm working on.

did the tutorial on this site for an xml image gallery - it worked great... My question would be is there a way to accomodate for multiple image sizes that would allow the image displayed to be centered?

I have an image with a translucent rectangle sitting over it (white rectangle with alpha = 0.5) I'd like to apply a filter to the rectangle and have it affect the image below it. For example, apply a blur to the rectangle and see the part of the image below the rectangle get blurred.

View 14 RepliesI have a very general requirement that seemed very simple: Step 1: Load a new external JPEG image into a MC with a string var encoding a string caption in the URL link (VALUE="../fadeTest.swf?someTextVar=TestCaption") within the EMBED / OBJECT sections. I know how to do this and it semed to work fine. STEP2: When the JPEG is loaded I would like the substituted Text to Fade In over the JPEG. The JPEG should also fade in before the Text. The fade rate should be programmable.

I've made a gallery slideshow before but wasn't as intuitive looking back at it now and I want to start fresh on this new project. I would like to convert a jQuery lightbox style gallery into a flash XML based AS3 image gallery with categories. I don't want to code the FLA, I want separate AS files.
This is a school project for my website. I would use jQuery and I have more experience with it but this project needs a flash component. I'm just not sure where to start and looking for some advice on how and where I could find resources. I want it to be minimal as I can make it;
- 8 thumbnails to a "page/section" with more flowed into page 2 or 3 etc. (or a srcoller)
- a few buttons for categories
- images fading in full size with a description when hovered over and a close button
- preloader (simple bar)
Esentially something like this > http:[url].........works which is using http:[url].... for the thumbnails. That might be ambitious but I'd suffice with a simple fade effect.I've downloaded some galleries out there but most of the code is messy or outdated.http:[url]... this is alright, but all the code is done in the FLA. I might break it into AS files but it depends.
I just started working with bitmaps and I do not get them at all, I've read the entire page adobe has on bitmap and bitmapdata. I've got this code together but all it does is displays a white rectangle and not my image.
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
This code should load the image into the bitmap (which works), then crop it with the rectangle (which just crops the fill from the bitmapdata)
I am having some problems regarding image crop.I am able to crop an image but with the use of rectangle class or in rectangular shape.But i would like to crop in circular shape(for example go to URL...).
View 8 RepliesI am using the XML and Flash photogallery that Kirupa has in the tutorials [url]. I was wondering how I can:
a. make a second caption
b. make a caption with a link on it.
I am trying to use a magnifing glass to sweep over an image and actually show the image underneath as the enlargement rather than just increase the pixels of the original image. Is this possible? is flash the place to do it?
