I've recently looked at the loading pictures dynamically video tutorial and wanted to further expand from it. So I got the picture to load once the button is pressed and my question is...Is there a way to click on the loaded picture to make it close? I basically have the loaded picture cover up my thumbnails so it's pretty hard to navigate to the other thumbnails once the picture gets loaded.
View 14 RepliesHello again. Well I dont have too long to write this down so I'll make it short and sweet. Heres the problem.I need to load pictures into a file. However I want it to load all the pictures in a certain folder. Does anyone have any suggestions, or questions as to what i am trying to do? I want to load pictures into the movie at runtime. And I want it to load all the picture within a folder. I could name the pictures in a certain way if needed. aka pic1, pic2.

View 2 RepliesI'm loading pictures dynamically through my PicLoader class and I'm trying to get it so that if it doesn't find the URL given it doesn't try to load it. Is there a way to test a URL for a file?
View 1 RepliesMy site is [URL]. It has an index page to start which then, when clicked, takes you to the flash page. The trouble is that sometimes it doesn't load until the refresh button is pressed.

I have a movieclip named menu (instance name = mainmenu). Inside of that there is a button named btn_about (instance name = about). On the main stage there is an empty movieclip named empty_mc (instance name = mcholder, linkage id = empty). I want a user to press the button which causes a movieclip in the library named tesst (Linkage name = testid) to load into the empty movieclip (mc_holder).
Here is the code on the button:
on (release) {
this._parent.mcholder.attachMovie("testid", "tesst1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
}
It does not work.
I have a function on root:
_root.fadeBox_mc.onEnterFrame = function (){
if (fade){
this.nextFrame();[code]....
This causes a mc to fade in and out on rollover/rollout. But what I wanna make is a box that fades in when pressed on the button and fade out when pressed for the second time. But if I say
on (press){
_root.fade = true;
}
the mc fades in, but I cant do another on (press) to fade out. Is this too confusing?
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 am having 2 problems with the following code...
[AS]
picNamesA = ["pic1","pic2","pic3","pic4","pic5","pic6"];
picNamesB = ["pic7","pic8","pic9","pic10","pic11","pic12"];
[code]....
Ok First problem the pics load but the second FOR loop the buttons don't position themselves correctly. Second problem was in the getURL() It doesnt seem to read the variable picNamesA[i], I did a trace as you can see and it outputs "undefined".
You know when you "liquify" something in Photoshop, and then you have all these different options to push parts of the picture around. Is there any way to make a region that will basically "re-liquify" every frame, no matter what is underneath of it?
Do I need to clarify myself?
I've made a gallery, that loads pictures using XML and fades them in and out using Tweener. the gallery can be seen here: [URL] so far the XML and the loop that fades the pictures in and out works fine.so far, so good.the actionscript to all of this can be seen here
Code:
stop();
//var
var xmlloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xml:XML;
[code]....
but I've not been able to make it work so; i'd like tips on how I can place my pictures beneath an already existing mask in my Flash.
The following works:
ActionScript Code:
pic_arr = ["flower_pink.jpg", "flower_yellow.jpg", "flower_purple.jpg", "flower_red.jpg", "flower_orange.jpg"];
color_arr = [0xf75eb0, 0xf6f818, 0xbb57c8, 0xdf1734, 0xfe9809];
// specify pic locations, alpha increment each frame, and
// number of frames to keep current picture displayed before
// transitioning to the next one

Scenario: Upload 2 images to a server. Download those images via AS3 and place them into different containers(movieclip or sprite), not overlapping one another. Well I can do it no problem, but they overlap one another and for some reason use the same "loader".
Code:
for (var i=1; i<2; i++){
var image:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://myurl.com/images/" +jpgarray[i]+".jpg");
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code]....
There are several different ways you can write the above code, but the outcome is still the same. It uses the same Loader or Movieclip, or uses the same container, simply overlapping the images.
I have an XML document that has 25 different subjects and in each subject, 4 different pictures:
[code]...
I have 2 groups of different buttons. The first group is a set of 4 buttons, one for each image in a single subject. When the user clicks btn1 then image 1a needs to display. When the user presses btn2 then image 1b displays, and so on.The second group of buttons is a set of 2 btns: nextSubjectBtn and prevSubjectBtn. The names are pretty self explanatory but basically, when the user clicks nextSubjectBtn then I need the next subject from the xml to load and the 1 2 3 4 btns need to switch over to the images within the next subject. So when the user presses btn1 then image 2a shows up etc.
I have studied a ton of documents on XML but I have not been able to figure this out. Its probably something pretty simple involving one or more arrays and maybe a loop or two but I dont know what.I have have all of the buttons programmed or at least recognized and ready for when I figure out what they are supposed to do. Right now they just have a trace.Through help I have gotten from different documents and other programmers this is what I need to do but I need help on how:Assign each of a buttons a value that will reference the picture URLs from the XML doc. Then create a variable with a value that references each subject 1 through 25. so when I click next subject it goes to the next subject in the xml doc.
I'm trying to create a set of 4 vertically arranged buttons that 'split' apart when those buttons are pressed. For example, if you click the topmost (1st) button, the bottom three buttons will drop down so submenus (for the 1st button) can now be revealed beneath. Again, when you click the 2nd button from the top, the bottom two buttons drop down, revealing submenus, and so on.
Now, is there a way that I can use actionscripting to tween the buttons to not only motion tween a drop down when a button is first pressed, but also to motion tween the button to return up to its original spot when another button is then pressed? Right now, I have two keyframes, side-by-side which each containing a different y-scale value for an object. Can I do some actionscripting to get the object to motion tween upward to its original spot instead of "clicking," or snapping back to is original spot when another button is pressed?
I want the press button to detect the last button pressed and if the shapes match, make them do something...obviously. I think I'm going at it the wrong way. I need to stick a "triange" id into the button/mc then if compares that and then if there is a match works then... right?

What button event should I use to make the program understands to DO SOMETHING only when the button is pressed/dragged. In my sample code below, I want something to happens only if the button is dragged beyond 200 in y axis. I tried onRelease, onRollOver and onDragOver but still not working

I have a series of buttons inside an array. I am trying to get the buttons so that once they are pressed, they remain in the over state. Which is a darker color than the up state. So that people know which button they have pressed. Is there an easy way to do this for buttons?

View 8 RepliesI have a Flash 9 AS3 document where I have set up a random picture loader from an XML file.
Works fine on the desktop but when uploaded the random pictures will only load if the XML file and the jpg's are in the same folder as the swf. I have pointed the XML loader address to
the proper spot in the AS3 code as well as in the XML file. I also have code in another keyframe for loading and displaying an RSS feed which works fine. I wonder are the two URL Loaders conflicting somehow. Attached is the RSS and the AS3 code.
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();

for(var i:Number = 0; i< urls.length; i++){

Is it possible to keep the aspect ratio of a picture loaded with loadMovie, or is there another way to accomplish the same?
View 4 RepliesI got 4 different pictures that I'd like to load randomly. The thing is that I don't want to load the picture from an external .swf file. I'd rather load them inside the same .swf document that I'm working on.
