ActionScript 2.0 :: Preload Image Gallery - Images Make Up A Sequence
Dec 30, 2009
I have a gallery of 30 plus images. The user will then use a scroll bar to flip through them. The images actually make up a sequence so I dont want to preload each one one at a time. I am also pulling in the images dynamically. Below is a bit of the code I am using. What I would like to have is all of the images preload on one frame and then once that is done go to frame two where I have the rest of the code for gallery manipulation.
I am trying to preload images for an image gallery ina flash movie.
i have the images externally loaded so as not to bloat the swf but how do i start a preload for all the images when someone gets to the home/front page, so that by the time they get to the image gallery everything is loaded in memory so there's no delay?
When telling a flash movie to load several external images or swfs into the stage it normally loads every image at the same time making the movie feeling slow.I�m looking for a preloader or a script that can preload one image at a time. Starting with 1.jpg then moving on to 2.jpg, then 3.jpg etc.
How can you expand the XML gallery (from the tutorial here on [URL] to automatically load the next image, and the next, etc. while the current picture has loaded (and most likely is being viewed for a moment by the visitor)?
here is the link for the xml gallery from 2004: [URL]
From my somewhat limited understanding of the AS, the next image is preloaded and waits until the button is clicked, and then swaps depths with the first image... I am trying to use this gallery, but have the image on top (one) fade out, so it would reveal the image below. But would it be easier to keep the swap the same, but alpha fade the second image from 0 to 100?
I have modified hga77's gallery and made some changes with the style. I am still having some problems and need three things sorted out. Well, two aren't essential but the first one is.1. Most importantly, On Load I need the first image in the XML file to load in and have a border.2. Get the percentage preloader working.
have a swf file calling an xml file w/ several images. I want the first image to load in the swf, then the additional images in the xml file to load invisibly in the cache while the viewer looks at the first image.he point is to create a seamless flow through a gallery, rather than having each iamge preload.
[code]Whenever im preloading images, i get a NaN Error everytime. Sometimes all i see is a NaN error, not even load numbers like 89% or so. I got the swf online at url...If you go to any section in the designs menu (3d design, 2d design or webdesign) and click a image you get the script that gives the NaN.I only get NaN in Firefox, Internet Explorer just gives 0. But either way i would like to see percentages rather than 0 or NaN.
I'm trying to find out how to make a simple image gallery which changes image upon a mouse click on a button, when a button is pressed I want the image to slide in from the left into the viewable area and then when another image is selected I want the previous image that was viewed to remain in the screen and then the new image slide across over the top to replace the image.
I can get the images to slide across from the left upon a mouse click however I can't change the layer order so if image 6 is viewed and then I click to see image 1, the image will slide into place however it will be below image 6 so therefore not viewable.
I don't have an example of what I'm after but I hope my explanation was good enough, I've seen this been done in javascript but I have to use flash and am unable to replicate the effect I'm after
scaling image for an image gallery project I am creating. I am adding each image inside a SQUARE Movieclip of their own so I can position them nicely on stage. As not all images are exactly square, there are always vacant gaps. What I want to achieve is to scale the image proportionally so that the smallest dimension of the image ( width or height ) will equal the same dimension of the square Movieclip, though anything that overflows the MovieClip is not visible.
I am creating an image gallery and the images change but change right back to the original image. I had it working yesterday but today it doesn't work.
I am pulling external images, I have my main image, and five small images, I have that to make the small images when click to appear in the place of the main image, but I am not obtaining to make they to click, I am placing my archive who to want to make download
[URL] They wanted me to make the gallery images full screen.. I have done this but this time the next and other buttons stays behind the big image when you enter the gallery (koleksion and showroom parts). Also the sliding menu stays behind this picture.. How can I fix this that the buttons and menu stays on the picture..
I am building a website with an image gallery using XML to load thumbnails and images.
Firstly, I was going to try to make the thumbnails act like buttons, so the mouse cursor would change to a little pointing finger like it does in buttonmode but i could not get this to work.
Secondly, I also wanted the alpha properties of the other buttons to reduce to about 0.75 to highlight the selected thumnail that would stay at its full alpha value of 1. Yet again i could not get this to work either.Can you build this type of functionality into the imported xml data or am I just kidding myself here?
I have followed Kirupa's XML Image Gallery tutorial. Before you ask, I have double checked my code. When I hit command+enter (mac) to preview it, everything works just fine. XML loads the correct images. My problem is when I publish it and upload it via FTP to my web server, ONLY the first image displays. When I click the next button, the first image fades out, but then it fades back in. The captions and image numbers change (like they're supposed to), but the image does not.
It remains on the first image. I know that it is able to access the XML because it loads the first image specified in the XML. That image was never imported into the Flash document. I have double checked my paths, too. All of the paths are correct. Also, I'm sure that it's not accessing a local file, because for each path, I specify the full URL, such as "[URL]", rather than just "/images/image.jpg". What do I need to do to fix this? You can see what I'm talking about by going to [URL] and clicking on "photo+art".
I'm working on an xml driven flash website where clients can modify an xml file directly to change the appearance of the site (eventually i'll make a flash/php dashboard GUI). The site will have listings each with a photo.I'm trying to find a way around having the clients have to crop images to thumbnail and enlarged view size themselves. In other words the images would be displayed scaled to fit within a movie clip.
im making a web page that must containt photo gallery (noncomercial use). i downloadet allready comleted photo gallery and now i need to update it.evrything works fine, but i need to add rolower image so it will show me before and after images when i rollower on image.
I'll make a gallery of 122 images but I don't want to place each of them on the timeline or I can't call them, they should be included in the exported .swf or .exe file I guess what I need is something like an actionscript that would call the images imported to the library is that possible or is there a gallery like that?
I've made an image gallery and it works great. What I want to do is make the main image a link to a certain part of the site. The first link works great, but then I get[url]...
Basically, I made an invisible button on each main image for the link.[code]...
I'm trying to get some general info and be pointed in the right direction to make kinda like a photo gallery where they can be dragged, and moved around like several squire images that can overlap one another, and if you click an image that is under another image, it will come upfront..
I am creating an image gallery where the user can select from several thumbnail images. Once selected, the thumbnails will enlarge and load the full sized image. My problem is that while the user is waiting for the full sized image to load, he may decide to close that image and view another image. I am trying to find a way to stop a loader from loading.ere is the code I have used. My problem is that even though the user has clicked on the unloadBtn, the loader continues to load the file. Is there a way to disable that?
i m using flash on a module of Joomla to display images, i embed flash player code into javascript , it fetch images from an XML files wher images are predefined and it works fine, now i have a problem that i m collecting images from database, means images are dynamically, so i m unable to fetch that images an display on flash, i just want to knoe how to add dynamic image array into flash. do i need to create xml??
i wrote a bit of actionscript to dynamically create an image gallery based on how many images are in a given directory. as of now, i've got it to display thumbnails in rows. my next step would be to get these thumbnails to link to the fullsize images, but i cant figure out how to do that. my code is as follows:
I have spent some time looking at the Kirupa XML gallery with the thumb navigaition sliderOne problem emerge when i use different sized images (same height, different widths).If one thumbnail is half the width of the others, that thumbnail will be placed directly on top of one of the others. Furthermore if the "large" image also is half the width of the others (which it also is here) it'll get placed starting from the left and have a gray background where there is no image (which makes sense since the background is grey in the .fla).My question is: how i can get the gallery to display all thumbnails with the same spacing between them no matter what width they have (in my case they will all have same height). And if a thumbnail is not as large as the "default size"(for example 67 in height and 100 in width) is it possible to center that image in the "large image" display?
