I have a problem with a caption. When i load a picture, the picture goes in front of the caption. I tried a swapdepths between the 2 mc's but it seems not to work. Here's my code : You can also see the swf online here : [URL]

You'll see that i have also a problem with the pictures loaded. I place the pic ni the middle of the scene, but when i click the button, i can see the picture moving.
I followed the hover caption tutorial but sometimes the hover caption goes out of the movie.How to make it stay inside the movie and a certain distance of the mouse?
View 9 RepliesI've done the Tutorial written here by Kirupa on how to display an hover captionTutorial It works perfectly in the stand alone movie.But i need to put this in another movie as external.When i do so, it doesn't work , actually 'cos it drag ALL the external movie and not only the item i want to do a Hover Effect.Why this??Maybe because it consider the command_root.x = 1 (and so on whenever there's _root)the root of the Main movie and not the one of the external??Must i correct all the code with level1 or there's another way??
View 1 RepliesI followed the hover caption tutorial, everything worked, etc. What I want to do is experiment with different uses for the hover captions. I tried to put longer text inside the quotes ("something something blah blah blah" instead of "Portable Devices", etc), but it extends the yellow box way past the text, and if I try to make it multiple lines I get this error mesage:

am having totally 30 movie clip ( name it as layout_1 to layout_30 ) for that i want hover caption to each movie clip from xml data note: not load dynamic movieclip only xml data load dynamic
View 1 RepliesMy query is in respect to the tutorial posted on kirupa : [URL] Now :
1) If I want to add a line of caption ,the moviclip expands in a horizontal manner. So , if I write a big description , the caption movieclip occupies whole stage width. How can i make this movieclip exapand in a vertical fashion after a fixed no. of characters
2) Suppose a button which is inside a movieclip has been applied this function , the button action doesnt work !!!! only the hover caption appears. ( specifically the button on(release) action ) !! What is the possible solution.

View 5 Repliesi am trying to use the excellent hover caption effect in my movie. the buttons i want to put the captions on are inside a movie clip named mcRobot. so i tried to modify all the paths to go into the mc...but not working.
here is original code from tutorial and then the one i try. basically i put "mcRobot." before most of the paths where i think it should go.
does anyone have a version already modified to put into an mc?
original code:
b1.onRollOver = function() {
captionFN(true, "E-Mail!", this);
this.onRollOut = function() {
captionFN(false);

I'm using the kirupa fla source file for the hover caption URL...and have created an external movie file where I want the hover captions to appear to be loaded into the main movie swf. The hover captions don't work once this swf has been loaded but works as a standalone swf.
View 2 RepliesI've completed the Hover Caption tutorial at [URL] successfully. What I'd like to do in addition, is to resize the caption box to match the caption text's length.
I've tried giving the background box a name (box) and turning it into a button and then doing:
_root.caption.box._width = _root.caption.help.length * 8;
But the box never aligns with the text properly after that. don't know what methods to call in order to get the bottom corner of the text and bottom corner of the box and align them properly.

View 1 RepliesThis the the project in a nutshell. The website has inventory that has three pictures for each piece of inventory that's paths are stored in a SQL database. Now when a piece of inventory is clicked it goes to the page that the slideshow will be located. Here is where the 3 pictures will be playing in a loop. The problem is I don't know how I'm going to get to pictures loaded into the .swf. XML is out of the question because I have 143,000 pieces of inventory and I don't want to have that many XML files. Is there a way I can access the database directly and pull the paths from there?

View 9 RepliesI have been looking around a bit everywhere, but everything I've tried just don't work.I am looking for a simple way to resize an externally loaded picture in AS2.Exemple:We have 4 movie clips (that we will use as containers), and 4 JPEGs, each with a different pixel resolution. What we need is to first, load these JPEGs into their movie clips (no problem for this part > using loadMovie), but then resize them (once loaded) so that they all have the size they are supposed to be (let say here they are all supposed to have a size of 150x100 pixels).Problem is, I have been trying many ways to resize them, but so far none of them work..._width and _height do not work either since they seem to work proportionally of the original loaded picture (ie. a 640x480 jpeg will not be resized same as a 1280x740, which I think is weird... but well).
View 1 Repliesas a part of a bigger project, I'm trying to figure out how a loaded picture can be moved across stage... AND looking smoothly while moving so far, all my tests have ended up looking not very smooth at all!check out my tests here
heres my code:
Code: Select allimport caurina.transitions.Tweener;
var _image:Bitmap;
[code]...
the third picture - the first to be moved - is a picture embedded inside a MovieClip already placed on stage.the second picture - the next to be moved - is a picture loaded into a Loader and then the Loader is placed on stage.the first picture - the last to be moved - ia a picture loaded into a Loader. then the content of the Loader is put into a bitmap, and then the bitmap is placed on stage.
Im making a site where I at the main frame load in a movie at a higher level. In this loaded movie I load in pictures dynamically with a function I use together with setInterval. I feel its a little bit anoying everytime a pic loads because it blinks. Is there maybe a smart way of fading the pictures in and out? I now it takes a lot of computer power using _alpha, and because I load in the pics I cant use tweening.
View 3 RepliesI have loaded 11 pictures through an array and a loop and then tweenlite'd them so them come on the screen from the right and move across 'til the middle picture is in the middle of the screen.Now, I am trying to figure out how to make it so I can move them to the right or left by a press of a button, (bntLeft and btnRight).Three pictures show on the screen at one time. So if btnRight is clicked then the 3 pictures which are off the screen to the right would come on and center in the screen. And if btnRight was clicked again then the pictures would move to the left and the last picture would come on.I don't know if that is going to make sense to anyone but me so I have created a picture to show what I mean.
View 3 RepliesThis flash gallery is wonderful, however, since I do not know actionscript I need some assistance figuring out where to implement the order in which the pictures are loaded. This code views everything in the images and thumbs directory and loads it. 1, 2, 3, 4, (.jpg)The more pictures we add to the directory, the higher we make the number of the jpg.(51.jpg, 52.jpg, 53.jpg, etc) the number grows.How do we make it so all new images are loaded FIRST on the left and not on the right?I have attached the fla.

picNamesB = ["pic7","pic8","pic9","pic10","pic11","pic12"];

I have a simple gallery in my flash website. The gallery is a separate swf which is loaded into the main swf. When I view the gallery swf on its own, the images are crystal clear - but when it's loaded in the main swf, whether on my local drive or on the server, they come up all fuzzy. [URL]...

My AS3 project is devided in to 4 sections.
1.) load XML file directed from php site and store all data to miltidimensional array
2.) load mc from library to stage and scroll it with mouse move
3.) load pictures into previous scrolling mc on calculated coordinates
4.) add event listener to every loaded pic to open new site
here is part of code that's bugging me:
Code:
var polica_mc:libMc = new libMc;
var container_mc:MovieClip;
if (xmlLoaded == true) {
[Code].....
Problem is that pictures are not loaded into polica_mc (scrolling mc) but outside.
In this game I dynamically load 9 random pictures onto the stage. They all start off with maximum blur. The idea is that when the user hears a sentence the pictures gradually lose their blur. The sooner the correct picture is clicked on, the higher the score. My problem is, I can't stop the tween when the user clicks on a picture. I've tried it successfully on a much simpler fla, where the images are already on the stage and not loaded from an external source.
Here's my extracted code - the source fla is way too long to attach.
Actionscript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.Strong;
import flash.filters.*;
import mx.controls.Loader;
var totalBlur:Number = 100;//100 is maximum blur,

I have created a gallery that loads pictures from the server into a movie clip within Flash MX. This works fine. Now I have been asked to take those pictures that load dynamically and allow them to be a static image so that they can be clicked on enabling the user to view them at an enlarged state.Can I create a button that talks to the movie clip allowing the pictures being loaded to pull a pop up window enlarging it?
View 3 RepliesI'm having two problems. First of all, the gallery loads all pictures at once. The more pictures in the XML file, the slower they all load. Secondly, I wanted the pictures to scroll in its _y coordinate, similar to Sugar Rhyme's website portfolio (see url]...).
