how would you make these clips organize in columns and rows?
Code:
for (var b=0; b<gallery.childNodes.length; b++) {
item = _root.nav.attachMovie("itemClip", "itemClip" + b, b);

I am quite new to the more advanced coding so here's an easy one for you: I have three images (thumb1, thumb2, thumb3) that I want to load onto the first row. then I want the second row to contain bar1 and bar2.
Obviously this code doesn't work...but I was able to get it to do just the first row (the easy part). How do i get the second set to load in below them? I just left the code off where I left off in my head.I would love it if you could just comment or complete my code rather than pointing me to a tutorial.

I have a little problem with a gallery that I am building. I have to arrange the thumbnails on 2 lines like this:
thumb_1 thumb_2 thumb_3 thumb_4
thumb_5 thumb_6 thumb_7 thumb_8
I am using a for loop because the array of images can be different depending on the users request.
i was wondering if it's possible to invert columns and rows - I need the rows to become columns a columns to become rows.

Problem is becouse number of rows (1,2,3) is changed dynamically. I was trying to create new arrayCollection and use different variations of addItem but non of them works and I'm stuck. Maybe some of you know how to do this?

View 4 RepliesI have a 1 row, many column flex datagrid. I would like to turn the dataGrid on its side, so that the column headers become a single column running down and v.v. Is there a way to do that in the DataGrid? Or am I stuck manipulating the data presented to the grid?
I have an object like:
x=y
b=u
o=p
u=e
w=p
And I'd like a control that is visually similar to that. Currently the datagrid displays the object as:
x b o u w
y u p e p
Which is too horizontal for my case.

View 2 RepliesI'm implementing an image gallery which presents assets as equally sized boxes that are forming a grid. I thought that I could easily achieve that by using the spark.layouts.TileLayout but unfortunately I have some additional requirements that I'm unable to implement with it.The general principal should to be to present as many boxes as possible within given space. The entire layout of the application is liquid and depends on the user's screen resolution.[code]I don't know the RequestedColumnCount or RequestedRowCount in advance as they depend on the available space, so the above code layouts all elements from left-to-right and then from top-to-bottom - which is as close as you can get from what I really want to achieve.This list of boxes should be cable of rendering fake paging. In reality it means that if the last visible row does not entirely fit the available space it should be moved to the next page.
To give you an example let's imagine that we have a list of 10 images. Each one is 10x10 px but my screen resolution only allows me to fit a grid 35x35 px. This means that one page is only capable of presenting 9 images in form of a 3x3 grid (as 5 px is not enough to present a full image). The 10th image should be then transferred to the second page.This is obviously not happening automatically with the code that I've pasted above as the TileLayout allows for displaying partially visible rows (in a form of a vertically scrolled list). I was wondering how I could achieve the behavior described above.If the above description does not sound logical please let me know so that I can adapt it (or include more details).
I have a thumbnail gallery that gets its images from an xml file, at the moment if there are more than 8 thumbs they go off the page to the right, I'd like to have it so they continue to load in rows and columns but I'm not sure how I'd do this? I limited the images in the xml to 8 and duplicated the mc and xml to get the look, but it needs to really be updatable from the one xml file. Heres the Actionscript-
Code:
myPhoto = new XML();
myPhoto.ignoreWhite = true;
myPhoto.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;

I'm trying to position dynamically generated movie clips into rows and columns. Currently i've managed to position them side-by-side using the same ._y position. I would like to position them into a grid consisting of 25 columns and 16 rows, so mc 26 would sit beneath mc 1 etc...
View 9 RepliesI need to dynamically stack rows and colums of squares. That is easy enough. But i want to dynamically change the number of columns depending on the total number of squares. This way, i will always have a rectangular grid of squares. I can do this by using a series of if...then statments to check the total number of squares, but this is not a good solution as it will not scale infinately nor is it very adaptable to different layouts.
I susupect that there is a way to find a relationship between the number of squares and the number of columns needed to keep things in a rectangular shape... but it hurts my head to keep trying to figure it out with my limited math skills.
I am trying to figure out how to manage a Datagrid based on an XML object like this:
[Code]...
I will need to populate the Datagrid column names based on a different XML object and use the above XML to populate each of the column's rows. I currently am able to create the Datagrid and populate its column headers but I am unsure as to how to how to add the rows for each column. The above XML will be update with new row and column elements added and deleted. This, of course, will be bound to the Datagrid to show updates.

I've added Previous/Next buttons which clients always seem to demand, and I've given the thumbnail buttons a static position (something I need to do). I'm having problems getting the buttons to stack in rows/columns though. I can't work with one long column or row of buttons - they need to be stacked in rows, say 6 buttons per row and 6 columns across so that there is a nice box arrangement to the buttons. But the way the functions are written its hard to make adjustments to the placement of clips.
I need to create a multidimensional array with a certain number of rows/columns from variables that store the number of rows/columns. For example say I have:
var r:int = 5;
var c:int = 10;
I want a multidimensional array that has 5 rows and 10 columns, every space within the array filled with the value 0.
When you resize the browser window the thumbnails rows and columns adjust accordingly to fit.I've managed to attach the thumbnails correct when my enableButtons() function is called but i'm unsure how to approach resizing.

Is there any way to disable a few columns for a particular row in flex datagrid?
I have a datagrid with about 10 or more columns, say for example a few column names are: Item Id, Item Name, Item Status and VerifiedState. Initially I want the column Verified State to be disabled.
Now When the value of the column, Item Status is Review Passed for a particular row, I want the column VerifiedState to be enabled and editable. Is that possible in Flex datagrid.
I was working with the XML Photo Gallery Thumbnail Tutorial on this site: http:[url]....
And I modified it for my own usage, making it a vertical gallery instead, and had no problems until I came upon the thumbnail images. When I replaced the original thumbs with my new thumbs (that I sized based on width, as it is a vertical gallery) it got all screwed up. The images are of all different shapes. So when it loads up, some of them had huge gaps in between them, and others were even overlapping. So I fixed it by making the heights of all the images the same, resulting in a working thumb gallery, but now half my thumbs are cropped off by the mask. I'm looking for a way to fix it where I still have the same spacing between the images, and that they are all the same width, but can vary in their height. Here's the section of the code I am using:
function thumbNailScroller() {
// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);[code]....
I'm also trouble figuring something out from the same tutorial, that I want to change. The tutorial uses these "Next" and "Previous" buttons. On the far right hand side, the half-circle buttons are what I assigned this to, but I don't really want them to have that function. I would rather have them function just like how the mouse functions when it rolls over the thumb gallery, except they scroll the thumbs up and down when clicked.
I want to save remotely (on a database) the state (visible columns, columns width and order) of a Flex3 DataGrid.For width and visibility I can simply save them by accessing each column attribute.. But for the order? Do I have to create the dataGrid dynamically?

I was wondering how MMO's such as AQworlds URL... handle maps on the stage.In my game there would be one static map per screen. The background does not move, only the player. The player can move on to the next screen by walking over arrows on the map.How would I go about storing the maps? Is it good practice to just keep each map screen as a separate object in Flash and just delete the map and make create a new map from the library when the player moves around? Should I load the maps externally? Or should I have one map object and keep each stage on a separate frame and just toggle between frames?I am not looking for code but concepts and ideas. This is my first try at making a multiplayer game and I am not sure of the "Best practices" of maps.

I'm doing a project for school and based on what was designed I'm pretty sure it will need to be done in AS3. I've got experience with AS3, for small projects I have little trouble. This project on the other hand has 3 modules which will contain 3 lessons each, and each lesson has 5 practice problems. I don't know where to start.What I've started with is a menu screen with 5 practice problem pictures on it. When I click on a practice problem picture it brings you to the appropriate problem. Upon completion of the problem it pops up an arrow that brings the student back to the menu but with previously completed problems greyed out.

I broke the code down into classes.

Is there any easy way to make a big file with all the general functions that are not class spesific to keep things easier?
