I am looking to create a horizontal news scroller. In fact I once found one on the web but failed to bookmark it now I can't find it again. I have attached an image of what it needs to look like. It will load text from an external source and have links to the full news story.
View 0 RepliesI'm a beginner at actionscript, as well, but I'm humble and more than willing to be schooled..I have what I hope is an easy question to answer.It is a pretty basic image scroller that has a series of images scrolling across the screen in an infinite loop. Direction is controlled by mouse position (extreme left or right), and it will stop when the mouse is positioned over an image in the center area.Here's the code:
var myVar:Boolean;
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
function onEnterFrame(e:Event) :void

change vertical scroller to horizontal scroller?
View 2 RepliesI would like to use it as a horizontal scroller for an image gallery. Just to clarify a horizontal dragger and a horizontal stage motion for image viewing.

The horizontal slider is quite smart and there is additonal functionality attached to it to affect it's movement which I'm not too worried about although it would be nice)

I am trying to create a news scroller such as the one on espn.com where you have a scrolling news component that can contain images and or videos and links to news stories stored in the database.
View 2 RepliesI have this news scroller for work - Vertical member (160 X 600) And the idea is that it has 3 text fields (Headlines). These fields are lined up vertically (one at the top of the scroller, one at the middle, and one at the bottom.). I load them dynamically from XML, and after about 5 seconds, I have them all move up. (the top one goes up the top, and comes back from the bottom, the other two move up). The problem is that I am trying to center justify them. When they're loaded I can center justify them, using this code:
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.centerFunction = function() {
format = new TextFormat();
format.align = "center";
_root.news2.headline2_txt.setTextFormat(format);
_root.news3.headline3_txt.setTextFormat(format);
_root.news1.headline1_txt.setTextFormat(format);
}
Now, when they are first center justified by the code, they look slightly off, and once they move they arrange themselves correctly.
I've got a news-style scroller that has audio clips and text loaded in via an XML file. The text works fine and I can read the string of the mp3 file to play, but if I actually hit play, it only plays the LAST listed mp3 in the array instead of the one that should be playing.
Here's some code:
stop();
MovieClip.prototype.mV = function() {
this.onRollOver = function() {
this.t.colorTo(0x815249, .5);
this.roller.gotoAndPlay("over");
[Code] .....
What's happening is when you click the play button, it only plays the last song named in the XML file, and doesn't link to the correct url, but all the text is in the correct places.
I'm creating a vertical news scroller, that will eventually load in from an external text file and then just scroll the text in a movie clip vertically. I have this working but I have a couple of questions.
1. As the text reaches the end of the scroll I want it to start to fade out, I've added a IF statement to do this but it doesn't seem to fire. Why is this?
2. Even though I don't have any easing the scroll seems to slow down as its nearing the end of the animation, do you know why this is happening?
Code:
import gs.TweenLite;
import gs.easing.*;
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(0,1);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, scrollNow);
myTimer.start();

Here is what I'm trying to do: recreate the news ticker from [url]...
HEre is the trick: The client wants to be able to change the news themselves via an external .txt file, the also want each piece of news to link and the link will change..
I've got the text loading into the .swf just fine, but I have no idea how I can make the news pieces hot to a dynamically changing link that will be changed by them
I found this news reader on [URL]. [URL] web_appl...s_xml_easybit/ It does pretty much what I want, but I need to be able to add url links in the main text. Anyone know how I can go about doing this?

I've created a horizontal dynamic text scroller (like latest news ones found on some websites) in flash 8 with as2, and this swf file reads data from a .txt file. the problem is that when change the txt in the file, it doesnt show in my browser until i clear its cache. But if a client doesnt clear cache he will get the old text...I would like to know how to prevent the browser from caching that swf content, any code or script will be most welcomed. I've tried to add <meta> tags in my html but of no use.

I've been putting this together and ran into a wall. I'd like to have this drag scroller drag left and right. I'd also like to have it zoom in/out according to where the mouse has been clicked. i.e. zoom to the mouse when clicked. I would also like to be able to scroll left/right while it's zoomed in or out. As a bonus, it would be nice to get the original blur working as well, but thats just an extra
The code is below...It's based on blur scrollbar
Code:
#include "mc_tween2.as"
hand.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x = _xmouse;
this._y = _ymouse;

How can I make a horizontal image scroller that when u click and hold would allow me to scroll through a pan with hotspots(buttons)? I have this script which does the basic functions I am wanting but it if I drag right enough I can drage the MC right out of the frame. I would like to be able to scroll right and then when it meets the very right edge of the movie clicp and the actual movie frame it won't go further. Same with the left edge.
Code:
var mouseStartX:int;
var mouseStartY:int;
var bgStartX:int;[code].......
