View 8 RepliesI found this great thread Scotty's Image Resize Gallery and have been playing around with some of the files. The one things no-one has mentioned in all of the posts, is how you might be able to customise the border.I see where it is written in the code, but what I really need to do is create a scribbly line rather than a straight one. It seems best to create mc and then have this re-size and stretch as the images re-size.
View 1 RepliesI downloaded the source file for Scotty's V3_with_thumbs and would like to know how to add another dynamic text box to it. I've tried and copied the arrangement and placement of iArray (calling it dArray), added dArray.push(gallery.childNodes[i].attributes.descrip); (with descrip being my new entry in the XML file). Given an instance name etc... but if I call descripTxt.text = id; (descripText being the instance name of the text box) I get the same Text given by the existing info/title text. dArray traces with the correct content (but all of it).adding in another dynamic text box?
View 13 RepliesBefore I go and spend a number of hours trying to figure it out - has anyone made the following improvements to Scotty's "V3_with_thumbs" gallery?[url]...
1) Gallery menu is fed by the XML doc and not hardcoded in Flash.
2) Next and Previous buttons (in addition to the thumbnail buttons)
3) Icing on the cake: "Slideshow" button that loops through the chosen gallery thumbnails. Probably needs to be a toggle button to stop the loop too.
I'm encountering a weird glitch when I try to use a more complex image border: the image container and the text caption both jump into place at the last moment. A bad effect. All I've done is add two more variables, "w2" and "w3" to the code:
Code:
var w = container._width+spacing, h = container._height+spacing;
var w2 = container._width+space2, h2 = container._height+space2;
var w3 = container._width+space3, h3 = container._height+space3;
border.resizeMe(w, h, id);
border2.resizeMe(w2, h2, id);
border3.resizeMe(w3, h3, id);
The only way I can find to keep the border shapes in correct proportion is to create 3 different border clips and apply the "resizeMe" easing function to each of them.
I have looked up the tutorials on tween class etc. but can't figure out if I can crossfade images using nextFrame. I have a dozen images placed in their own frames and a button using nextFrame (and prevFrame) to navigate between them. How would I crossfade these images smoothly?

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to do a cross-fade transition in Flex between two states, both containing a VideoDisplay object. The problem is that the default CrossFade effect takes a bitmap snapshot of both states and blends between the two. This means that the movies appear to be frozen for the time of the transition. Does anybody know of a solution that uses a PixelBender (GPU-accelerated) method of fading between two movies? My other option is to manually re-order the video objects and change the alpha of the top one, but this uses a lot of CPU (in my case ±300%)...

I've been looking into how to crossfade externally loaded .jpgs.So far everything I have found deals with slideshows and seems more complicated than what I need.I have created a new Loader that will load a .jpg when the thumbnail of the corresponding image is clicked.I am trying to get the currently loaded image to crossfade upon load completion of the new image being loaded.I'm thinking I can define a variable that is the current image in the loader and then on completion of loading of the new image run a function that fades out the current image and fades in the new image simultaneously.I am having problems trying to identify the currently loaded image of the loader into a variable.

View 3 RepliesI have two different background images for my navigation bar. I want the two images to crossfade between each other incrementally depending on the position of the mouse cursor. I was thinking I could do this with an OnClipEvent (mouseMove) and an attach movie command, but I'm not really sure how that works... like I said, i'm just starting out, and I'm thinking I've bitten off more than I could chew.

im making my portfolio website and i was wondering if its possible to make 2 things:
1) crossfade transition effect between photos like: [url].... (i know site isn't flash) (when loaded click on f.ex. editorial location, left side click is previous and right side next)
2) first photo on category as a preloader (filling up from top to bottom). i got my photos in category too (on different swf files) and for now im using simple strip preloader.

View 3 RepliesAre there any programs or features in flash that can simplify flash vector art?
I just realized that one of the reasons why my program might be running so slow is that I made the images out of lots and lots of circles. When things didn't look right I often just put larger circles over smaller ones. I didn't think that flash might still be drawing the invisible circles underneath-

We've got a green screened video playing in a flash movie over top of our html content.when the movie ends, flash uses external interface .api to call a javascript function which swaps the flash movie out with a 5 x 5 pixel flash movie (rewrites the <div>).this works and you can interact with the html content after the flash movie in all browsers except firefox.anyone know of any work-arounds or is there a better way of handling flash over html in this fashion?
