I'm running in to a problem where I've added additional pages (20+ pages in total) and everything after page 16 is transparent.

I'm using pageFlip to load several jpg's and to show them in a pageFlip catalogue.Now I would like to on page 3 of my catalogue to add a button at a specific coordinate.Do you know if pageFlip creates several MC's holding the jpgs it loads dynamically or does it load them for each page-pair???I couldn't seem to find the name of the MC's, - if I could, I guess I could dynamically add a button to the MC containing the jpg displayed at page 3?
View 2 RepliesI have purchased a dynamic pageflip script from [URL].Has anyone used it before? I have setup all the pages and all is well, however, I am having trouble changing the very first left hand page.[URL]I have looked in both the .fla files and pagedate35.xml for an instance but had no look.
View 2 Repliesim working on a site that uses page flip but i wanted to make multiple flips as well. imagine 2 strips that are independant of eachother that both flip. i was going to make 2 flash files and load them into a container flash file.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get it to start and end on a spread rather than with a front cover and back cover (with blank space on the left and right). I just need to flip between two spreads.I have gotten it to start on page2, but it appears on the right rather than on the left as a spread. I tried getting rid of ename="blankpage"; on line 123 and 127, but it only caused order issues.
View 0 RepliesI am trying to use a button to flip the page rather that using the corners. I have switched the page flipping off using:
ActionScript Code:
canflip = false;
There is this code below that is used to tell me how to use a button however I do not understand it.

I'm (still) working on a pageflip catalogue and i need to add a system that marks selected pages and enables you to come back to the marked pages at anytime you want.In other wordz, i'm trying to obtain the same thing as this :
[URL] and mess around witk the post-it block in the middle of the pages, on top part of the catalogue.)Since the pages are loaded externally thru a xml file, I don't know how to refer to the page that is to be marked, how can i add multiple markers...
I just found the "famous" pageflip and encouterd a problem. I need to load each page seperatley.. cause loading the pageflip takes a while (its 1 mb) example:[URL] I tried putting this on every pageMC: _root.mymovieclip.loadMovie("page1.swf") followed by a preloader script, but that didnt work the pageflip can be downloaded here: [URL]
View 3 RepliesI have 3 issues i've not been able to figure out how to do:
1) I've not been able to dynamically resize the pages to fit the stage dimensions as it changes, the content MC gets placed into the stage with this code line
addChild(pageFlip = new PageFlip(ContentMc, stage.stageWidth / 2, stage.stageHeight));
i have also set the stage to
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
but i cannot figure out a way to dynamically target "ContentMc" from the document class, it either disappears or looks squashed.
2) second issue is that the "hit area" for the mouse is too wide, meaning that if you click almost half way up the page it activates which restricts the amount of usable content area for links and such, how can i reduce it to the lower corners?
3) how can i add other MCs to specific pages from the document class?

I am trying to change a version of the gotoandlearn carousel to add an additional image that appears along with the first image when it's clicked on. I can get the movie clip to appear/disappear properly, but I can't get the photo to pull from the XML file and appear in the movie clip. I've tried everything and what I think should work doesn't. Here is my XML file and action script code: ("the2nd" is the movie instance, "image2" is the photo in the XML file that needs to appear).
XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<icons>
<icon image="carouseldogs/icon1.jpg" image2="carouseldogs/icon1a.jpg"
tooltip="How we help"

When i load the book into my flash website, it works.. when i load it second time it doesent.. (i cannot "grab" the pages anymore) I know this is a long shot, but the pageflipper is pretty popular..so i thought maybe some of you know whats up.
I tried to rewrite all references to _level0/parent etc ect.. that does not sem to be the problem.
Its easy to recreate "bug", simply replay timeline from frame 1
Code:
btn.onRelease = function(){ gotoAndPlay(1) }

I need to Automate the Page flip where the user has no control. Make it into an animation per say. I know it can be done. But I can't seem to figure out how. I can make just the first page. But I can't make it keep going. You guys know what I'm talking about right?[URL] Here's the code and notes...

I'm using the pageflip fla file found out pageflipDOThu and it is working ok except that I am using larger page sizes (595 by 842) and when the corner of the page curls before you turn it, the opposite diagonal side also curls.i haven't altered any of the script, just added new pages.The files are both 10mb in size so can't attach.
View 0 RepliesIt may be a little confusing the way I explain it but here I go. I've been testing in Flash CS5 for awhile and saw it may be something like Photoshop, more specifically while drawing. In Photoshop there are layers which I use to divide parts of the picture such as the hair and the head in two different layers so that if there is a problem say at the top of the forehead where the hair is, the layer dividing the two separates it so when I erase a part of the head the hair doesn't go with it because it's not on the same layer.
Unfortunately in Flash it doesn't appear to work that way...in one layer I draw the head the other I draw the hair, I see a mistake in the head near the hair and I erase it...a part of the hair goes with it...then I have to redraw that part which can be time consuming unless I want a relatively bad animation(which I don't) since it's obviously not set as a default in Flash is there anyway to set it as that? I do tend to make quite an amount of mistakes in Flash because of how the brush and such works..
I had a developer who created a flash slideshow which utilized xml to load the image and attach a url to it. The project works as it should except for the urls...which seems to be set to the first one you click on.I am not a programmer, and the developer I was using, died. So, now I am stuck with a file that just needs one thing fixed to work. Any assistance in this endeavor would be most appreciated. If you want to use the files for yourself once they are fixed, feel free.
View 2 RepliesI seem to be unable to reference flash files in my HTML code that reside on a server different than that of the HTML page. When both the "swf" file and webpage are on the same server, everything works accordingly to plan using either the absolute or relative link to the swf file.

I need to have an existing blog that can be viewed from within a Flash web page. The idea is to access and read a blog without leaving the Flash site.

View 4 RepliesI have a simple problem that I've been working on for hours, trying to go through trial and error myself. But here's the problem. I have a function on the main timeline named startClips. Now, I want to call this from from within two movie clips, the other nested inside the other. In other words, I have a movie clip called holder, and inside of a holder, I have a movieclip called homebase. Now, here is all the code I've been trying to use to access the startClips function which is own the main timeline from the movieclip homebase:
MovieClip(root).startClips();
MovieClip(root.root).startClips();
MovieClip(parent.parent).startClips();
this.parent.parent.startClips();
I can't figure this one out. Can I get any assistance.
The request has been to modify the first item by including an FLV player. This I've done and have working without flaw.My trouble arises when users select any of the other 4 tabs and then attempt to return to the first tab where they should see a transition into the playing FLV. This is not happening after the initial load. It's been quite awhile since I've worked with AS but I figure this issue should be able to be resolved if I inject a condition to determine what item is selected.
The AS for the "accordian" is:
ActionScript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
[code]....
This isn't working. In fact, it seems to be skipping the initial condition if(t == "welcome"). If the nave is determined within the var navs:Array, how then can one determine the selected location?
i purchased a flash template which contains flip books. they said i can add new pages to books but i couldn't
i added new pages to action script and i made new pages' movie clips in library
but the new added pages are transparency at the prewiew.
I created an interactive image pan (750 x 300). I then tried to add the 750 x 300 panning image as a movie clip as part of a larger stage (750 x 550), so that it was a band across part of the stage with static content above and below. When tested the scroll keeps going off the end of the image? How you can add the interactive scroll as an element of a page rather than just on its own without the scroll going off the end of the image?
View 11 RepliesI have my main.fla which imports external swfs that contain flv's. I have three buttons that navigate the main timeline to frames 2-4. At frames 2-4 an external swf gets loaded into an empty movie clip via this code. Each loaded swf acts like a menu with some nice vidoes loading in the background.The problem i found is the flvs continue to play as i navigate between menus, which makes the main swf/fla slow down becuase the pc is working harder to deliver all the stuff running in the background. I've added this code to frame 1 of my empty movie clip that is in my library that has the instance name 'menu1'I keep getting the error "Access of undefines property mc1"I have the source files for my site here if you can take a look and see what I'm doing wrong.

if there is a way to use the _rotation property with the Tweening class to make a movie clip continually to rotate from it's current position instead of starting back at the original position and doing the same rotation again.
I'm trying to make an movie object rotate 90 degrees by clicking on a button and then when you click the button again, the movie rotates 90 more degrees. I don't want it to start over and do that same 90 degree rotation with the Tween class.
