ActionScript 2.0 :: Photogallery - Make A Bulleted List In XML?
Jun 13, 2007
I'm making a photogallery exactly like kirupas for a client.I have one text box named desc_txt. The description text for each photo will be loaded into that one box from the XML file. Some of its 2 or 3 paragraphs or in a list. Is there any way that I can have a bulleted list or bold only part of the text or make one word a different color? without having multiple text boxes?
Is there a way to make a bulleted list in flash with custom bullets? If so, can this be used from within a TextArea in Flex (mx.controls.TextArea) when setting htmlText?
For example: <li>Item</li> <li>Item</li>
The list above will render fine when set into a TextArea using htmlText (versus just setting the text property). The rendered text will have standard vanilla bullets. Is there a way to style these bullets with custom images, like you can in standard HTML/CSS?
I am trying to create a bulleted list in flash that is loaded from an external text file and formatted with CSS. I've found that flash recognizes the <li> tag and that works fine, but I would like to do multiple levels of bullets. Like this but with different bullets[code]...
I am developing a photo gallery using an XML file as the structure. As the document class I have a class called PhotoGallery:-
[Code]...
Once the parsing is finished here I want to call a function back in the PhotoGallery class to start setting up the PhotoGallery. Is this possible, or am I even going about this in the right way? I am not sure I am using classes in the correct
I am new in as3, I am trying to build a photo gallery , can anyone tell me what it the best approach to make a photo gallery with three different categories let say:
1-cats 2-dogs 3-human
should I do it with different frame lables for each ? should I do it with different external swf file for each? or should I make different movieclips and keep them in the library and then call them?
I am teaching my slef and I am pretty confused, by the way I just realized that controlling external swf files is kinda hard you can't easily tell them gotoandplay , I ma struggling with it for 3 days, but yet I am not sure it's the best way?
Can someone show me how to make this sort of photo gallery on flash.[url]...
after clicking on this link, select family and click the link saying 'click to view harshith and amita's family photo'. From this, you will see the photo gallery which i will like to design
I used the tut on here to make my own photogallery with scrollable thumbnails and have run into a snag. My thumbnails share the same height but vary in width and, for some reason, are overlapping and/or appearing in the incorrect order.As you can see the first 4 thumbs and the 6th thumb are okay (they share the same width) whereas the 5th is missing (actually it is about 10 thumbs down, overlapped with another). Here's the code (taken from the "Adding Thumbnails" tutorial on this website.)[code]
When a user selects a category from the first drop down box then i want the 2nd drop down to be updated based on the selection of the first drop down. I have created multiple ArrayCollections whose names are set to the "data" values of the first drop down, for instance:
[Bindable] public var countries:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {label:"USA",data:"USA"},
I'm trying to get Flash to display a bulleted list using bold embedded fonts.
What I'm finding is that I can get bold fonts with bullets, but not embedded. Or embedded fonts with bullets that aren't bold, or bold embedded fonts without bullets.
This is incredibly frustrating (as well as annoying).
I'm embedding the fonts in the library and exporting them via actionscript. Here's my code...
var tf:TextField = new TextField(); tf.multiline = true; tf.width = 100; tf.x = 200;
[Code]....
The above code produces the regular font embedded bulleted list.
If I change the bulletTF.font line to bulletTF.font = myFontBold.fontName The font goes bold and the bullets go away.
I am trying to get the scrolling photogallery to have a url that when they click on a big picture it will take them to another page. So far, I can create the link but when I click on it ALL the urls come up.On the link movie clip, I've assigned:
(symbol on layer in Scene 1) onClipEvent (enterFrame) { this.onRelease = function() { getURL(this._parent.link, "_self");
I have this RSS Reader that is displaying the main headlines into a list component, which is fine but its ugly, i want the list component to be touch enabled for scrolling, is this possible, or if not can i atleast change the scroller to something wider and more visually appealing???
here is my RSS reader: var rssLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();var rssURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://alaashaker.wordpress.com/feed/");rssLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLET
I have a list component and I wanted to make a dynamic scroll for the list. Or change the default scroll that the as2 components have. How can I make a dynamic scroll, the ones that it moves with the mouse position?
I have an MC that is a giant text box that contains 20 different items laid out vertically, like this for example:
A B C D E etc
I want to make the list infinitely moveable/draggable on its y position, meaning the user can drag this list up and down but the list never ends.....In other words when the user drags to the last item in the list, the list, the list starts over again. And the same works in the reverse; if the user is dragging up and gets to the first item, the last item pops up after and then goes in reverse. In other words no ending. Think The Price Is Right Wheel or the alram clock on the iPhone or iPod touch.
This is the code I've got from net 2 create photogallery in flash using ActionScript3.0. but I don't have that version on my pc. I've macromedia flash 8.So,I've used the same code in macromedia flash8.but it has given me errors like mouseevnt can't be loaded.
Not sure how it works, but the kind of gallery I'm looking to put together is similar to the one found in the portfolio on this site:Im not sure but I understand that while the thumbnail loads it's also loading its cooresponding image into the gallery as well. Just curious how they are creating that loader, where you see the picture while it's loading.
The trouble is that when I click in the button in the first film, the "main.swf", the "album.swf" is loaded into level 10, but the images and description does not load. Seems to be here some parsing problem between flash and xml, but I can't solve it.
how I dynamically resize the images that are loaded into Flash. I want to resize the window in which they are displayed, so a 400x400px photo will display at 150x150px, for example. If you want tobut don't feel like checking out the tutorial,me know and I will fish out whatever code I think this solution would concern.
i have a MC that load another MCwith an XML photogallery and i was wondering how could i control externally this gallery.Basically if i want different button of the MC to control the MC with the xml photogallery , example i want button 3 to load the xternal gallery.swf and to load image 2 from the xml...i know is confusing and i am not even sure if it can be done.
How can I edit the script here to resize the image's height and width if it is bigger than the stage's height and width? I tried to do so my self, but it wouldn't work.
Wondering how simple it would be to specify a background color in the xml file for each image.That way you could have the background of the movie to fade from one color to the next to match the image displayed.Probably like ...
Trying to get my head around all of the variables, functions, etc. Anyway, I want to modify the Kirupa photo gallery AS <http:[url].... to have my movie go to another movie or scene after the images have been viewed one time instead of playing through the array over and over. Printing out the AS and going through my references I am getting an understanding of what things are doing.
To fit in with my page design, yet to take advantage of the "List" component, I'd like to spread my list-labels horizontally, across the page (1 row, multiple columns). Is this possible? If not, is there a comparable component that would do the same thing; showing a row of text labels, rather than a whole set of individual buttons and all the scripting that would entail?
I have a spark list, which is based on a dataProvider. As the application runs, the data in the dataprovider can change, and also the dataProvider can be swapped for a different one
What I need to do is make sure that something is always selected in the list (unless it is empty)
