I use Flash CS5+Action Script 2 and have a template where I can display several flv files in succession by pressing PREV and NEXT.But I wish to show jpg files in a similar manner, i.e. currently I have 6 flv files, 1-6, and wish to display 6 jpg files after them, i.e. 7-12
View 1 RepliesIm trying to show a new movieclip that only shows up when i press another one.
The movieclips to press are nested inside another movieclip so i need them to call the other movieclip which is in the stage.
To explain better menu1 is inside cont3. Menu_down is in the stage and i need to call it after pressing menu1.
Btw menu1 is showing an external swf also,is there any problem with it?
I'm working on a video header that will cycle through 4 12 sec videos. The idea is if the connection speed is too slow to show alternate content (JPGs). Based on previous code I've used with LoaderMax think I have it figured out. I think the normal bandwidth profiler in flash ignores FLVs and just shows them as loaded ASAP. Is there another tool out there for this that accurately works when loading external FLVs?
View 1 RepliesHow do I display children in succession? By succession I mean 1,2,3,4, etc. Perhapse incrementing with a loop or using a timer is what I'm after.
Add, remove, appear, or disappear children, could all work. I want a simple way to display 1 child every second until I reach 10.
METHODS TRYED
addChild, removeChild, AddChildAt, getChildAt, setChildIndex
visible !visible
for loop
I don't see how this works with multiple children.
I have a movieclip that shows the waterlevel rising in a glass. Frame 0 is named "empty", frame 20 is named "1/3", frame 40 is named "2/3" and frame 60 (the last frame) is named "full". Each of these keyframes contains the actionscript stop();
I have a variable in my main timeline, that contains a number ranging from 1-4. Depending on that number I want the glass to fill. e.g. var howFull:uint = 3 ---> the movieclip should playback from frame 0 to frame 20 AND THEN to frame 40. I've tried using nested if statements to make the mc segments play in the right order:

I have a bunch of bitmaps in sequence. Example: Bitmap_1, Bitmap_2, Bitmap_3, and so on. And I need to display them as a "movie" -- that is, to display each bitmap for a few microseconds and then display the next for a few microseconds, etc.
I am using setTimeout & something like below to accomplish this[code]...
I found this code for loading external swfs and playing them in succession.
It works when I use the external swfs that come with the code, but not when I try to use any other external swfs.
I can't figure out why - does anything seem obvious (the clip swfs are here [URL]
// Array of external clips to use. Variable index refers to next clip to be displayed.var clips:Array = ["clip0.swf", "clip1.swf", "clip2.swf"];var index:int = 0;

I'm implementing AMF service methods for an flash front-end. Normally things work fine, but we've found that if two methods are called one right after the other, the second call returns null to the flash front-end even though the method actually completes successfully on the PHP end (to verify this, I dump the return data to a file right before I return it).
View 3 RepliesI built a slideshow system a while back and have revisited the code. At the time I was getting an error so I just wrapped the function that was failing in a try and using brute force made it run the same function again and all worked but isn't very elegant. I click the next slide button in quick succession I get a #1009 error. Its as though the afterslideload function is firing even though there is properly loaded yet.This is actually a plug-in that hooks onto the back of the JW player. It picks up its xml from the players main playlist. So every item on the playlist has its on slideshow xml that contains all the info that the plugin uses to work. Every time the 'itemhandler' (clicking on an item on the playlist) is fired the xml is given to the plugin.The error is:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I have a flash file with a MC "wmc" which contains the following script to randomize labels on load as well as for next and prev buttons to function. I used the prev/next btn scipt in a previous file but for some reason the buttons are no longer functioning in this one. I must be missing something elementary. The actual file is available via the following link (see the "workmc" MovieClip in layer "wimages"):URL...[code]
View 2 RepliesI've been able to add those buttons, but they only work if I don't click on a thumb, as I click on a thumb they stop working.
In the code there is a function called loadGImage which loads the full size images, originally that function accepted 2 parameters, I've added a 3rd one which store the current image's index inside an array, so that I can use my buttons to call that function with index+1 for next and index-1 for prev.In addition to this I've added a variable which is updated everytime a full image is shown, that variable contains the image's index.
Clicking on thumb the buttons stop working because the current image's index turns to "undefined" so they can't pass a correct value to loadGImage.I've checked the code of the gallery, but I can't find where is said to the thumbs to call loadGImage, if I'd found that code I could add the index parameter and my buttons would work.I'm sure that the thumbs call loadGImage because I've put a trace() inside the function to see when it is activated.[URL]
I need to create a flash photo gallery for their website. I've looked at different tutorials but all of the ones I have found only show stationary thumbnails. What I need is a gallery that shows the thumbnails with next and previous buttons, while showing the imaged that was clicked.

This website gives you the option to turn on the thumbnails, I however do not want that option I just want to the thumbs on.

how to make a sliding content with a next and previous button in AS3? I know how to do it in AS1 but in this particular project I made use of Tweenlite, which requires AS3. Basically, I have a vertical movieclip navigation that toggles back and forth, and in each movieclip i want to insert a sliding image gallery with the next and previous button.It's similar to this onebut instead of having individual links, i just want to have a NEXT and PREVIOUS buttonIs it also possible to have links in each image? Anyway, in case I'm not making myself clear I attached a sample fla. and jpeg file of what I'd like to happen.[URL]

I have a movie which consists of 4 buttons( PLAY, PREVIOUS, NEXT and STOP)
[Code]...
These buttons work correctly and advance or reverse in sequencial order (slide1,slide2,slide3,slide4). However the movie can run from start to finish wihtout the use of the navigation. My problem is that if I let the movies run independently and then choose to use the next button while(for example) "slide3" is playing, the movie jumps to "slide1". Note that these slide labels are located within movieclip named "allunits" I know that the variable currentSlide is still equal to 1 thus returning the playhead to label "slide1".
I have pages of info I'm pulling from external files. I want my btn_next to not be visible when the last page loads and my btn_prev to not be visible when the first page loads. The btns are actually moviclips with instance names btn_next and btn_prev Here is my code:
//Stage Scale
Stage.scaleMode = "exactFit";
width_txt.text = Stage.width;

But when the videos player is initiated, the first video is paused at the start, and a faded black screen overlays the video with a description of the content of the video.Also, there's a for loop that links each video of the array to a numbered button which also sits on the back screen along with the description, in case the user wants to view the second video not the first.Everything works perfectly fine as I want it, but I have next and previous buttons that are always there, so in case the user wants to go from one video to another, they can click next or prev.
I have been struggling with this for a week, and can't get it to work.I tried setting up a _global variable, but the prob is, the results of the XML array, gets stored in the for loop for the numbered buttons, and I don't know how I can get the next and prev buttons to know which video is playing and go through the index of the array to trigger the next or prev video.Here's the code that I have so far:
Code:
var videolist:XML = new XML();
videolist.ignoreWhite = true;

I really dont get whats going on here in the code.... It looks fine and even trace the values that i need but it just does not work. In overall, i have an Empty MC which is populated with 8 thumb via a for loop each time i click the next button. When i press next it must go forward and show the next set of thumb of the xml file which have been loaded into a variable at very first.
The previous button works opnly when i am on the 2 nd set of thumbs but as soon as i am on the 3 or 4rth set then its a mess. the function does populate my array but does not show them... it says undefined
I am loading swf file on prev and next in my image gallery. its an xml driven gallery..its working fine.Now i want when i click on next and prev button it loads the swf but with different url.I came to know that it can be done by using deep linking.
View 2 RepliesI still can not get a basic slideshow with the either thumbnails or prev/next buttons to work. It seems that every tutorial either assumes I downloaded the correct libraries or understand when they are using AS2 or AS3.point me to a "FOOL" proof tutorial or template..I understand the basic part of what is going on but do not know enough AS yet to hammer out the actions myself.
