ActionScript 2.0 :: Pageflip: Load Each Page Separately
Jan 18, 2005
I just found the "famous" pageflip and encouterd a problem. I need to load each page seperatley.. cause loading the pageflip takes a while (its 1 mb) example:[URL] I tried putting this on every pageMC: _root.mymovieclip.loadMovie("page1.swf") followed by a preloader script, but that didnt work the pageflip can be downloaded here: [URL]
I have purchased a dynamic pageflip script from [URL].Has anyone used it before? I have setup all the pages and all is well, however, I am having trouble changing the very first left hand page.[URL]I have looked in both the .fla files and pagedate35.xml for an instance but had no look.
I'm using pageFlip to load several jpg's and to show them in a pageFlip catalogue.Now I would like to on page 3 of my catalogue to add a button at a specific coordinate.Do you know if pageFlip creates several MC's holding the jpgs it loads dynamically or does it load them for each page-pair???I couldn't seem to find the name of the MC's, - if I could, I guess I could dynamically add a button to the MC containing the jpg displayed at page 3?
im working on a site that uses page flip but i wanted to make multiple flips as well. imagine 2 strips that are independant of eachother that both flip. i was going to make 2 flash files and load them into a container flash file.
I'm trying to get it to start and end on a spread rather than with a front cover and back cover (with blank space on the left and right). I just need to flip between two spreads.I have gotten it to start on page2, but it appears on the right rather than on the left as a spread. I tried getting rid of ename="blankpage"; on line 123 and 127, but it only caused order issues.
I'm (still) working on a pageflip catalogue and i need to add a system that marks selected pages and enables you to come back to the marked pages at anytime you want.In other wordz, i'm trying to obtain the same thing as this :
[URL] and mess around witk the post-it block in the middle of the pages, on top part of the catalogue.)Since the pages are loaded externally thru a xml file, I don't know how to refer to the page that is to be marked, how can i add multiple markers...
I'm running in to a problem where I've added additional pages (20+ pages in total) and everything after page 16 is transparent.
//pageflip version 2.02 (200405031400) // //(for the latest version, always check at http:url....) // //this code is written by Macc 2004.05.03[code].....
how does pagination work? Is that I just need to create several Movieclips for each page and then add the contents into pages seperately?? Or is there any available tutorials??
I have 3 issues i've not been able to figure out how to do:
1) I've not been able to dynamically resize the pages to fit the stage dimensions as it changes, the content MC gets placed into the stage with this code line
addChild(pageFlip = new PageFlip(ContentMc, stage.stageWidth / 2, stage.stageHeight));
but i cannot figure out a way to dynamically target "ContentMc" from the document class, it either disappears or looks squashed.
2) second issue is that the "hit area" for the mouse is too wide, meaning that if you click almost half way up the page it activates which restricts the amount of usable content area for links and such, how can i reduce it to the lower corners?
3) how can i add other MCs to specific pages from the document class?
For each level in my game I have a large bitmap that I need to load. I would like to load the bitmap as the player gets to that level rather than all the bitmaps loading right at the beginning.And this is where I get stuck. I want everything else to load during the beginning pre-loader, but I don't know how to exclude the images from being preloaded at this point. I'd prefer not to load anything externally either.
When i load the book into my flash website, it works.. when i load it second time it doesent.. (i cannot "grab" the pages anymore) I know this is a long shot, but the pageflipper is pretty popular..so i thought maybe some of you know whats up.
I tried to rewrite all references to _level0/parent etc ect.. that does not sem to be the problem.
Its easy to recreate "bug", simply replay timeline from frame 1
I need to Automate the Page flip where the user has no control. Make it into an animation per say. I know it can be done. But I can't seem to figure out how. I can make just the first page. But I can't make it keep going. You guys know what I'm talking about right?[URL] Here's the code and notes...
I am trying to create a flash service tutorial to appear on a website that will be able to play and load 6 steps of a process separately when prompted with a button click. I do not want to link back and forth between web pages to do so, but rather have the files loaded on demand and played within one flash movie "viewer" to keep things clean.
Each movie is going to be somewhat image heavy. load each of the 6 step movies within one main movie file?
I'm using the pageflip fla file found out pageflipDOThu and it is working ok except that I am using larger page sizes (595 by 842) and when the corner of the page curls before you turn it, the opposite diagonal side also curls.i haven't altered any of the script, just added new pages.The files are both 10mb in size so can't attach.
I have run across a strange problem. When I load products2.swf by itself, I can call the two "copy" files and everything works. When I open 0342.swf (the index page), I can switch between the home and products2 pages, but I can't view the "copy" pages.I'm guessing there may be some sort of conflict with variable names, but I have been messing with it for most of today.I have uploaded all of the FLA files to here:[url]....
If you make an swf file out of each of the attached items, and open the 0342 file, you will see what is supposed to be happening.
on (release) { if (_root.currMovie == undefined) { _root.currMovie = "home";[code].....
In the attached screenshot is what I have created so far.Would it be easier to create each "page" separately, so I use what I have as a template and then create a new file at the end to link them all together?
Also, how would I link the navigational buttons on the left to each frame?
One other thing, the content box on the right, how can I make that scrollable?
My basic aim is to create a newspaper that consists of four pages. Each page i have created and are sitting in the library as sprites. Each page has buttons that need linking so that when pressed it loads the next page or page that i want. This is the part i am confused with =/ how do i make the buttons on each page load the next page (sprite) from the library??
I have a an unobtrusive flash video looping in the background of a website, it is not essential to navigation - it is purely cosmetic.The flash video loops every 30 seconds.As this video is on all pages, it jumps back to the start when a new page is loaded.Is there an actionscript / javascript way to get it to remember the position it got to on the old page so it can start there on the new page?I do know that this can be accomplished by loading the flash movie in a frame as well as by having the subsequent pages load the contents in AJAX but I was hoping not to go down this route.I have seen other people ask the question and allude to the solution but they only posted that they got it to work without saying how.
I am trying to load an external swf with a number of quotes into an empty movie clip on the home page. then I want it to obviously disappear when nav to any other page.
1) know that you need a loaderEmpty_mc to load the swf into
2) don't know code for how to get it to load on entering the home page
3) don't know how to cdde for leaving the home page and making it disappear
Im working on a website for school, and im doing it through flash. The server ive been given is being taken up by thousands of pages, so its slow. Instead of loading each page through HTML, ive decided i could do a seperate frame for each page. However, to reach the menu at the bottom, you have to scroll down. Is there any way to make it so that when you click a button to load a different page for the flash player to scroll up all the way to the top of the page itself?
The thing is that if i made my project with less then 10pages it works fine... if i put more then 10pages it dosent show more then 10 pages.....
I dont dont how can u help me on this.... that way im going to put my project here, so it can happear one gentil mind and see the project, and maybe say to me what is wrong...
I have got the Flashpageflip (a flash based application from [URL]) and MagicZoomPlus (a javascript from [URL]) and I would like to integrate the two.
Flashpageflip does accept swf pages as content and I'd like to zoom into images that are inside these swf files. This means that I have to call the javascript from MagicZoomPlus from within the swf file. Can this be done at all? And if so, how do I achieve this?
Extra info: The flipping page swf is called from within a PHP-file. I have been able to declare the MagicZoom javasrcipt functions in thie PHP file, but what needs to be done next is that the swf generates the following code:
The free version over at [URL] displays sound in their online demo, but when I download the Fla. and preview it out of CS4 everything works but there are no sounds playing when I flip. SoundOn - true has been set, and I cant work out why it isn't working. No settings have been changed apart from soundon. I have tried with their older version 2.14 and that works fine.
I have a function that adds a player to a sprite containerwhen that player is clicked a hit test is done on the tiles surrounding that player that it can move to and put into an array.all that works fine.my problem is after I add more than one player to the stage I can only move the latest addition when I use MapInfo.player.x = (hexagon_width * .25) + hexagon_x_position-90;I thought if I used getChildByName I might get around making a custom event.but I get an Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. when I use the code below
I want to be able to call 2 values from the mysql db Currently I only get the first one.Any order works.Now I tried to change the parameters in the flash file.I get the 2 values but they are the same.How would I get goldshare and the bank value seperately.[code]
I am running into an issue using the free version of PageFlip I'm trying to resize the flash file, but when I do, the mouse rollover in the corners appears on the opposite corner of the current page. I was able to get everything to work OK at one size, but after I resized the stage and all the other elements the problem showed up. I have examples posted at the links below. The first the page is sized to 600 pixels (which worked); the second is sized to 720 pixels (with problems).[URL]..
I'm looking for an extension/softwre to display PDF magazine with pageflip effect. It is not a problem to create flipping magazine with images. What about PDF?
