I'm creating a website and I want the background to change when the user presses a different button. I've been trying to create this effect but haven't been able to yet. I used the post here and built from there, [URL]. I had it working with two images and two buttons but adding the third kind of messed everything up. I've attached the fla.
View 1 Replies[URL] Take a look at that website. See whe you rollover one of the pictures, the other pictures fade out...Well how can I do that? I've tried some swapDepths techniques but it gets a bit confusing.

I am trying to fade in/out pics that I am reading in. How do I fade them in and out.
function firstimage() {
if (i<=19) {
picture = i+".jpg";
i++;
} else {
i = 1;
} loadMovie(picture,_root.viewer);
I want to fade a series of pictures one after the other, such that they'll loop around. I'm calling this a cascade. So to do this, i've placed all of the image names into an array and I set all of their alpha properties to 100 to begin with. I think I then need a for loop that will iterate through the images, fading the image down to 0, waiting for a set period of time and then moving on.
Unfortunately, mcTween will fade all of the images at once in the for loop, so I need to prevent a tween from starting until the one before it has finished. I thought I could achieve this using a while loop and the isTweening property, but when I try and preview the flash movie it just gets into a recurring loop and the program hangs, and has to be exited.

I want to fade pictures in and out, but randomly. Kinda like KrazyDad's cloud fly through. I looked at the code for that, but couldn't figure it out. I want to use an array to load the jpegs, and then cycle through it constantly.
Code:
randomPics = random (pics.length);
I just don't know how to fade them in and out. I grabbed this from a fla that faded pictures in and out using buttons
Code:
fadeIn = function () {
if (this._alpha <= 100) this._alpha += 5 ;
else this.onEnterFrame = null ;
[Code]....
I think I might keep my hands away from programming after this. Actually I have 1 more thing I wanna do, but then I will!

I'm doing my daily homework at Flashkit, in order to see how other people do certain thint was just the other day when I downloaded the "Fade script image gallery" by Ben Durman, when I stepped into an unsusual? behaviour that I can't get to understand.It's very simple, in the gallery there are 10 pictures. Everytime you click in one number, the previous image fades out and the new image fades in. The AS code is very simple and easy to understand. However, why I can't possibly understand is that when I create a new layer with another image, the whole movie starts to statter, transitions are not smooth any longer and some transitions are not even properly executed. The more layers/pictures I add, the worse it all gets (15 pics is almost impossible to handle)Part of the original code which makes transition between pictures happen is this:
[AS]
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// find alpha of new pic

I'm creating an interactive flash graphic about the ISS. The user can rotate the ISS in a 360� angle. I rendered the sequence in 120 steps, each step a jpeg-image of its own. To reduce bandwith-usage I dynamically preload the next 5 pics in the rotation-sequence. What I want to do now, is to load all the pics of the sequence quietly in the background, so when all pictures are loaded the flash switches from preloading the future pics to just showing the pictures loaded while the application is up and running. The problem is, if I try this, the flashapp will only start if the loading in the background is done. Is there any way of getting rid of that. My code is given below.
ActionScript Code:
var loader_current_Minus1:Loader = new Loader();
var loader_current_Minus2:Loader = new Loader();

Basically, I've got six different pictures as a background for my website. Like so:
What I want to do is to have six different buttons that controls the panning of these six pictures. The problem is how to get from x to y, say from bottom right to top left. If the user press a button that is assigned to that background picture I want the pictures to be panned from its origin and sweep across the middle and then end up on the to left (hope this is clear).
I have a Flash-file, which I downloaded at a page. Now I am changing some things and this error is occuring: SecurityError #2000. The Flash-file loads an XML-file and in this XML-file, there are some paths to some picture files. All paths are valid and the pictures exists. When I changed the picture (and path), I get this SecurityError. My next idea was to replace the picture, but the path should be the original. When I did this, I got the old picture, not the new. I downloaded this Flash-file: [URL]

View 5 RepliesI have a flash website where I would like the entire browser window to fade to black when viewing various thumbnails. It seems that Flash's background color setting will bleed through the entire browser, but when I try to add a graphic to create the background fade it only goes so far as the flash stage.The stage size is 780 pixels wide - do I need to create some sort of dynamic stage that scales to whatever the web browser size is? Otherwise, if the web browser goes bigger then 780 pixels the stage boundary is obvious.

I have a script that fades in a random image from an array, and then loads the same image in another MC in the layer below so the transition from one image to the next does not show a white background.
The problem is that while it works perfectly as a standalone .SWF and also in Firefox, I'm getting a white flash between images in IE, and it's erratic in Opera also. Anyone know a reason for this?
This is the main code, and I've also attached the .FLA. You will need 5 image files in a subdirectory called "images" to run it. I'm sure the code could be simpler, but right now I'm just concerned about why it won't run the same across different browsers.

I am trying to modify my personal/work site [URL]. Recently found this great little flash player at flabell - files here: [URL]. The .fla file is included so colours can be customised, I want to lose the green and go with grey tones - I've bumbled about and pretty much changed everything, but I am stuck on one part - if you see the example (link above), and hover over the white rounded box where the play button/pause button is, the white box will fade into a light green. I cannot find how to change this light green anywhere. I've checked other files for a reference to the colour and really cant find anything, the only thing possibly I thought it might be is within project/source/caurina/transitions/properties/ColorShortcuts.as, but I haven't a clue how to change it or what to change..or even if it is within that file.
View 3 RepliesThis is probably an easy task for most of you, but how do i get a transparent image to fade to a background image in Flash? I have several transparent product images (.png or .gif) and a patterend background. I import my .png or .gif image and convert it to a symbol. I drag the symbol on my layer but as soon as i add a keyframe, the product image background turns white and loses it's transparency!

As you can see, right now when you click each button the respective background image comes up. Now what i need is for them to crossfade, not switch. And preferably at a variable speed. Here is the (simple and obvious) actionscript so far:
stop();
button1.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(1);
}
[code]....
Each button is labeled button1, button2 etc. and each image has an instance name of simply "1", "2" etc....Can anyone help me and let me know what the actionscript would be for them to crossfade ? keeping in mind that the user might click button 1 then 4 then 2 then 5, meaning they cannot simply crossfade in order.
What would be the best way to get my random background to fade in? It is loaded using an XML file, and the images are large so when the site loads it takes a sec then... BAM - - image, lol.Heres my code:
ActionScript Code:

I'm trying to do a cross-fade effect for my gallery. To do that, I'm using two movieclips, one that holds the image currently displayed, and another one that holds the image that should be displayed next. When the coming image is loaded, the cross-fade effect should happen, the container that holds the image that was on stage should be cleared out, then the image in the other container should be displaced to the former container.
Here's my code so far:
function loadFirstImage():void {
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addFirstImage);
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(myImages[0].url));
currentImage = new MovieClip();

I want to fade in the full browser background, however most of these tutorials I have seen have it loaded somehow with the BitmapData or another class, and when it is done this way, I cannot add any animation. Others, the background covers the whole browser, but it doesn't really resize, so most of it is just cropped out. Some, the positioning isn't always consistent for all resolutions. Some don't really explain how to position images in different parts of the Flash besides the direct center, top left, top right, etc. They will tell you how to get these spots, but not other spots.
Code:
import flash.display.BitmapData;
cover._x = Stage.width/2;
cover._y = Stage.height/2;
rock._x = Stage.width/2+265;
rock._y = Stage.height/2;
var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("tile");
function fillBG() {
[Code] .....
The reason I chose to stick with this one is that is the positioning is perfect. Positioning looks the exact same in all resolutions and what not, so this is what I want. But as you can see, it uses a BitmapData class, so I don't know how to add any animation because the file isn't even on the stage. It's in the library and I get this effect by giving it an identifier. Also, the background doesn't resize. It fits the whole browser, but most of it is cropped about like I mentioned earlier. The video tutorial really didn't cover the best way to adjust size, so now that I have the perfect way to position my clips, I don't know how to resize them, so they still look good. I remember in another tutorial I was guessing random numbers such as:
example._height = Stage.height / 2.58430953;
I basically just plugged in random numbers until it looked closest to the way I wanted it to. The problem with this was that image quality was reduced.
The Background
- Must be able to add animation to the full browser background
- Background must be resized so that nothing is missing from the original image, not cropping to fill the whole browser, resizing to fill the whole browser.
Positioning (Not really a problem now but...)
- An easy way to position anything where ever you want.
- Consistent in all resolutions.
Scaling Clips
- A way to scale clips so they just fine in all resolutions so that an image with a width of 512 px that looks great in 1280x1024 doesn't end up taking half of someone screen's that uses a 1024 x 768 resolution.
- No loss of quality.
