I have a photo gallery that loads many images using a for loop (image data is from XML file). Simplified code looks like this:
Code:
var photos_xml = new XML();
photos_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

I am trying to load multiple images into a scene and then cycle through the images one at a time.So, here are the essentials what I've put together in AS3:First I set up a counter and a Loader

Then, after loading a list of images from an XML file, I call a function that I called "createImages". This function then takes the list of images and creates a bunch of loaders:

So far, so good! I now have a bunch of loaders each with a different name "img1","img2","img3" etc.
I'm a more desperate search for answers and need to load multiple images at the same time. I'm trying to use the same loader but don't know if this is best practice (and it isn't working). Ami I close?

View 1 RepliesMy need is to load 4 images at one time, and I'd like to have the code in a function that could load them one after another.

View 1 RepliesI've been doing a lot of thinking about how best to construct classes that load multiple images, e.g. photo galleries and such.
What is everyone's take (or the general agreement, if there is one) on how to load those images? The 2 ways I am thinking about are these (after you've already got all the filepaths or urls to be loaded):
1)Create a for loop [code]...
Here, you are creating anywhere from one to a billion loaders, depending on the number of photos in your gallery, but they will load simultaneously. Is that a terribly bad approach?
The only other way I know of doing it is to add an event listener that re-calls the loading function when the loading of one image completes.
I want to load multiple pictures using ActionScript. I can do it in AS2 easily. But AS3 is driving me nuts.

I have the basic XML which loads an image onto a page but how do I add 2 more next to it, in the actionscript?
I have tried everything that I could think of, including adding extra image[ii] nodes etc.
Below is the code I am using.
I have also created an instance of image2 and and instance of image3 which should hold the 2nd and third pic. So when clicking on the next button it would change out all three images from the images.xml file...or if there are 5 images it would just show the next 2 in the image and image2 movieclip holders...
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];

I have an all flash website that works by having each portion of it to load and unload in the center of a frame based off the navigation chosen.Load times on everything but one part of my site are ok.The dimensions of the part inside the frame are 968x674.I know that's relatively large for a flash file, but that can't be changed at this point.Within the page there are objects that come up when you find an item on the screen.Its a dialog box and it shows text, an image, and has a voice over that reads what the text says.After you're done looking at it, there is an x-button to dismiss the window.There are 15 of these and they are exported to the actionscript.I add them in the actionscript via addChild.
The other huge thing is there is a ton on the screen.It starts you off in an environment, and when you click 3 different sections, it zooms into that portion allowing you to look for the items you're trying to find.There is also a man that talks and animates in the beginning and at the end.We are planning on taking out the end part and putting a text box up. URL...The two parts of the site we are trying to optimize is the main menu when you first are at the site, and the "Explore" section.(Just click on the cloud on the front page.

I need flash to load in three images at one time(from an xml file) and display them in a horizontal line, and then move across the stage from one side to the other.
i know how to load one image at a time but not multiple. and i don't know how to make the images slide across the stage in a line.
I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do something with xml in flash and don't even know where to begin.I'm building a flash piece for the header of a website that will contain six images and six captions. I plan on integrating the xml file with a cms so that the user can simply upload images and type in captions and the xml file will dynamically populate the swf.I know how to execute the back-end development with the cms and xml file, but I'm not quite sure how to tie the pieces I need from the xml to the flash file.

As far as I can tell, it's convinced that I'm trying to use the load() method from the scrollpane class (that's where the context help takes me). How do I specify that I want to use the loader class method?
If you load say 3 external images in AS3 and want to run a function "useImages()" only once all three images have loaded what is the best way of listening for them to complete loading.
EG;
loader1.addEventListener(Eveent.COMPLETE, incLoader)
loader2.addEventListener(Eveent.COMPLETE, incLoader)
loader2.addEventListener(Eveent.COMPLETE, incLoader)

Basically my aim is to use SharedObject to save the basically what I am doing is I have a list of buttons each has a name which when clicked the name is added to an array which is stored in a SharedObject. In another movie clip I am calling back the SharedObject and using the array information to display the images corresponding to the name in the array. And I got everything working except I don't know how I can load my images in. Because the same images are not always selected it means that I can't just load each image to a specific Loader because then I would end up with blank loaders.

View 2 RepliesI am designing a game that has different rooms and each room has multiple unique images in it in addition to the background. For the record, the size is about 300K or less for each room background image and 1 - 100 K per graphic. What I am currently doing is importing all of the images into my Flash file, making symbols of them and then loading them as needed with ActionScript. Assuming this game will have many many rooms (maybe up to 100 or more), is this the most efficient (and quick) way to load the graphics? Or would I need to load everything from the graphic files when starting the program or perhaps load the graphics from files dynamically as needed?

The problem is that I want the completeHandler() to run after every ldr.load() but in my code it only runs once right after the for each loop.
I've been following along with this tutorial, which works except it uses an array to store the image path, and then later converts/saves the loaded Bitmap to a variable.
For cleaner more reusable code though, I'd like the images to come from an XML file.
Now, I'm assuming that if I have my image paths in an XMLList, I need to separate each item so that each is an XML object -- then convert it to a string so it can be saved as a Bitmap?
I'm not quite conversant with classes and loading external pictures so be patient My intention is the following: a sort of slide show which dynamically loads all pictures of a certain directory and displays them one after the other. To do so I want to get the number of images of a certain diretory (img) by using a PHP script (done), then the PHP-Script sends the data to the Flash file (done) which stores it in a variable (done). I've created a class called PHPLoading for doing this (finally it creates an array which stores the links dynamically created (pictures are named 0.jpg, 1.jpg, [code]...
