ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Preloading Of Multiple Images?

May 12, 2003

Code:
Scratch.prototype.loadImages = function() {
for(i = 1; i <= 6; i++) {
tempObj= _root.mcContainer["mcBox" + i].mcPhotoContainer;

[Code]....

As you can see, I'm dynamically loading 6 images into 6 boxes (containers). What I'm trying to make is preloader that shows the loading-status of all six images. So I need the totals (total filesize of the 6 images, and the total amount of loaded bytes)... But it doesn't seem to work this way

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Multiple Images From Xml With BulkLoader?

Sep 3, 2009

Anyone have any experience with bulk-loader for multiple files? Its great for preloading single files, but I am now trying to preload essentially a folder of images. The images have different names (and will change over time), so I can't just create a for loop to preload for example 'image01' then 'image02' etc. They are referenced via XML however, and I'm wondering how I could loop through those, and use bulk-loader to retrieve these...? Essentially I'm confused about integrating XML nodes with bulk-loader, and then also about how to do it with multiple images...?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Multiple Images With One Preloader

Aug 19, 2011

I'm preloading multiple images with my Flash file. What what I'd like to do is preload all of them together, and group them into one preloader that shows the percentage of all of them together in one. At the moment I'm just using a preload GIF to show that they are loading. I'm sure there's a better way.[code]

Preloading Dynamic Images Using CS3?

Nov 11, 2009

I am currently building a flash site which uses dynamic images throughout using loadMovie("picture.jpg", mc_name) to load them into various movie clips. This all works fine and the site is starting to look good, the only problem i have is with preloading. I have the main swf file and everything contained within it preloading with a progress bar at the start which works fine. When the movie loads the main homepage image slowly fades in, however as the loadMovie("home.jpg", homepic) is on the same frame as the homepage, if you don't have the image in your cache then you miss the fade completely in the time it takes the image to load.

As a result i am wanting to preload this (and a few other) images during the initial preloader if possible, that way i can prevent this problem from occurring. Unfortunately from what i understand i can't run loadMovie from within my preloader actions as they're in a different frame so i'm really not sure how to do it, given the image is external

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Handles The Preloading Of Multiple External Images

Feb 2, 2009

Just a quick query about how Flash handles the preolading of multiple external images. I'm not after code examples, because I know there are an abundance of them around, but I need to know how Flash is able to store the images. Do they all have to be loaded onto the stage, or can they be effectively loaded into the library for dynamic creation at a later moment?

For example, I'm creating a very basic Flash gallery which loads a series of jpegs, using paths from an XML file. The way I'm doing it is to drop the image paths into an array, and create an empty movie clip for each jpeg, into which they are loaded. I then set the visibility of all but the first containers to false. Am I right in thinking that if I was able to preload the jpegs without instantiating them, I wouldn't have to create individual containers, and could just attach them dynamically when required?

I know that in AS3, display objects can be added to the display stack without actually creating instances of them (with addChild). This is the sort of thing I'm hoping to be able to do. Hope this is all clear, and that my grasp of the way Flash loads and stores external images is sound. If not, I'm ready to stand corrected!

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading Dynamic Images With LoadBitmapSmoothed?

Jan 15, 2007

I have been working on my online portfolio lately and ran into a problem which I initially thought I had solved.I had been loading dynamic images from an XML file into an empty MC using the 'loadMovie' function. No problems. I even had them preloading nicely using a preloader and a bit of script.However, I wanted to be able to rotate these images, and when I did, they lost their quality. I found this was actually an issue with Flash and that it does not by default smooth externally loaded images.

Code:
import flash.display.*;
function loadBitmapSmoothed(url:String, target:MovieClip) {
// Create a movie clip which will contain our [code]....

I think the issue is that the 'getBytesTotal()' and 'getBytesLoaded()' functions do not work with the 'loadBitmapSmoothed()' function.
Problem is, I don't know how to edit the code to allow the preloader to work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Animating Multiple Dynamic Images?

Oct 9, 2009

I currently have a working gallery I made with simple next/prev buttons, that calls external images dynamically from a folder. The images are in an array (obviously). I would LOVE to be able to tween the incoming image from the right, and the outgoing image out to the left, which I know how to do just fine (with either built in tween class or tweenmax)..... but not when the images are loaded dynamically. I've searched and searched and have only come across a mention of having two loaders, or possibly a loader for each image? or possibly using the custom BulkLoader class from google.code.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Images On The Fly?

Jun 12, 2009

I'm working on a Flash portfolio asset that generates menus of thumbnail images based on the button the user clicks. (For Flash items, click the Flash button; for photos click on Photos, etc.) Once the menu is populated, you click on a thumbnail and the corresponding large image is displayed.

Everything works fine when testing, but in the browser the thumbnail images hang momentarily at at 0,0 and the the large images load too late for their fade-in effect to be viewed. Once the user clicks on everything once, everything works properly so I obviously need to preload things. What I can�t figure out is how to preload the menus and images on the fly. I�ve preloaded a whole asset before, but how does one go about preloading images that aren�t embedded?I�m using external .as files and there is nothing on the timeline. XML files contain all the info about the images, including urls.

ps, i don't want to give each image an individual preloader! i need them all there when the thing starts.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Images Specified In An XML Document

Sep 9, 2010

I'm trying to build a flash image banner which references an xml document for its content. The banner will automatically rotate through the images based on a set time interval. The user will also have the option to use a next/forward button and a direct slide (image w/caption, header & url) section button. There will always be 5 slides. There will be 7 buttons: a forward button - which shall rotate to the next slide, backwards button - which shall rotate to the previous slide, slide one button, slide two button, slide three button, slide four button and slide five button - these will take the user directly to that slide. I don't really care about Transitions.

Me and My friend building part of a site in AS2 which needs to preload images while the user is on the site. For example:
Illustration section has 10 images
A user clicks on the link for this section the images will begin to preload without the user knowing. They will be able to click on a link for an image and it will either display if fully loaded, or continue to load as a priority over the other images that are loading until it is ready to be displayed.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Preloading External Images From XML?

I'm having a problem preloading external images from an XML file in AS3. It's a scrolling image gallery and everything loads fine, but I can't figure out how to preload the images (all I've been able to do is preload the actual .xml file, which is useless to preload a 10k file). The thumbs skip, the big pics pause, etc.

Here's my code:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading Images In HtmlText

I have different htmlText strings for my TextField. Each of them contains an image with the text: textfield.htmlText = "<img src='animage.jpg'>Here is my text"; textfield.htmlText = "<img src='anotherimage.jpg'>Here is my second text"; Now what I'm doing is making a fadein effect on the TextField, from 0 to 1, and changing the htmlText. The problem is that, when the image is not loaded in the cache, it is displayed a little abruptly after maybe half a second, which really doesn't look good. How could I force Flash the preloading of these images before the fadein without having the user notice it?
