Alright, I've done the XML Photo Gallery Tut and am attempting to make the thumbnails scroll up and down instead of left and right. Apparently it's not as easy as switching X and Y. The tutorial is located a
View 3 Repliesgetting a vertical and horizontal thumbnail scroller to work at the same time, based off of the xml photo gallery tutorial here on kirupa. I'm using FMX04 and I can get one or the other to work but not at the same time. Once I can get them both to work at the same time I would like to make the vertical set load a different set up thumbnails,I know it will involve editting the xml and hence adding to the xml loading into flash but I'm unclear on that also... on another note, is there an easy way to make the image holder resize to the image, so as to accommodate both vertical and horizontal images without skewing them?
Here's my code (as) so far...
Code:
// start of horizontal code
function loadXMLh(loaded) {
if (loaded) {

I'm making a flash site with width 1024 and heidht 768px. But on some monitors it doesn't show all the flash. It's cut from the bottom. how do i show all of the content. I'm using this template: [URL]
I want to add vertical scroll for those who can't see all the flash. How do i do that?!

I'm attempting to switch the scroller I found on here from vertical to horizontal.
I got the movie clip to movie from left to right, but it doesn't seem to recognize how long the movie clip is now, because it stops before the whole movie clip is scrolled....see attached...
I want to make the scroller vertical for this very impressive XML: [URL]. I've been trying and have been getting somewhat close to accomplishing this but I feel like I'm hacking up the code to get there.
View 3 RepliesI'm using the XML and FLA file from this tutorial: [URL] I added right and left arrows to the thumbnail scroller so when the mouse is over the arrows, it should start scrolling. Here's the site I'm working on: [URL] As you can see, if I click on the arrows in the scroller, nothing happens. How can I have the arrows activate the scroller? Here are my FLA and XML files: [URL]

Basically, my problem is that i've got 15 buttons labeled Channel 1 to Channel 15, but when the page first loads up, it skips down showing the very last button at the bottom, rather than the very first button at the top. The top button is off the screen.
I have a <s:Scroller> surrounding a <s:Group>. The scroller works, but I want to increase the vertical step size on the scroller. I've tried everything, but am having no success. Modifying the scroller.verticalScrollBar.stepSize value in the init function seems logical; however, this approach fails.
View 2 Repliesgot stuck trying to design an automatic vertical text scroller. Here is what I set out to do:
- Have a news ticker like box through which text will be vertically scrolling.
- The textual content will come from an external text file.
- The text in the external file will also have click-able html links.
- When the mouse enters the content area, the scrolling would stop.
- If any link is visible in the content area at that time, the user will be able to click on it.
- When the mouse leaves the content area, the scrolling would continue.
Basically, it's an html marquee which you see in so many pages these days.
The following was my approach to solving the problem. Got very close and then got stuck
- I created a Dynamic Textbox and have it load from the external file. The dynamic textbox has multiline and autoSize set to true. So the size of it grows depending on the content from the external file.
- Next, converted the "textbox with external loading" into a movie clip and named it content_mc.
- Created a rounded rectangle (my viewing area) and converted that to a movie clip called mask_mc.
- On the stage, the content_mc is in one layer (content) and the mask_mc is in another layer (mask).
- Added another layer (action) and on the first frame of the main timeline, I entered the Action Script to set the mask_mc as the mask for content_mc.
- Also in this AS, I align the content_mc top with the mask_mc top so that the content is visible at the start.Then in the content layer, I inserted a movie clip "controller". This clip has two frames and all it does is it moves the _root.content_mc up by a fixed unit until the bottom of content_mc is over the mask_mc top. At that point, it sets the top of the content_mc back to the top of mask_mc.
Since I have little to no flash training, you can understand my excitement when the above steps worked and I got a fairly smooth scrolling text fitted in my viwing window. I could also click on all the links in my text. Yayyy!Then I took on the task of making the scroll stop and resume on mouse enter and leave event. What I did was:
- In the action script on the action layer, I simply defined two content_mc.onRollOver and content_mc.onRollOut functions. In the first I stop the controller movie clip and in the second, I play the controller movie clip.
The above strategy also worked as I wanted but it created a new problem! Whenever the mouse enters the mask area, the mouse pointer turns into a clicking hand cursor (the one you use to click on links); and it doesn't allow me to click on any of the html links anymore! It's almost as if the content_mc movie clip has turned into a button!
Regardless to say, this is unacceptable in my case if I cannot click on the html links in the original text content. I have googled quite a bit and must admit that I haven't had much luck (why else would I be posting here and other places?). I desperately need someone's assistance with solving this. Some of the approaches I have seen on google wouldn't work for me. For example, having invisible buttons for the html links. Of course that wouldn't work since my text is coming from an external text file over which I have no control.
I've done a basic thumbnail scroller before, but now I'm trying to make one like the scroller at I need to figure out how to get the popout with the text on it. Specifically when the image is the center image. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
View 3 RepliesI am building a full screen image gallery. I would like to have a thumbnail scroller menu at the bottom. As the user mouse overs a particular thumbnail, the image will appear fullscreen behind the thumbnail menu. I would like it so that the image appeared immediately as the user mouses over (i.e. the image is somehow already loaded in) as opposed to each image being loaded as the cursor is rolled over.
There are several images, so loading them all prior to running the application really isn;t an option. How could this be achieved? Are there any tips/tricks that can be used?
I have read the tutorial: [URL], and I based my flash file off the code given there. I would like to, instead of letting the thumbnail_mc's scroll when you rollover them, have buttons on either side that scroll (slow when mouseover and fast when pressed) the mc's instead. Here is what I have, which doesn't seem to work:
Code:
previous_btn.onRollOver = function(){
thumbNailScroller(30);
};
next_btn.onRollOver = function(){
thumbNailScroller(30);

I have a external swf file of the kirupa xml thumbnail gallery. the first problem i had is the thumbnail scroller didnt work. ive been struggling to fix this problem, for a few hours now. ive been googling this and found solutions that i had to change _root. to _level0 , _parent, and _root.container these kinda works but the next big problem i have now is that it scrolls but it keeps shaking left and right constantly and tis really bugging me.
View 4 RepliesI've to create a image gallery with following features :
1) Vertical thumbnail list
2) I should know which image i've selected
3) It should have loading for both thumbnails & the main images
Plz take a look on the following site [URL]. I want exactly the same except the horizontal images.
I know that this has almost certainly been asked before, I know because every quarter at least one of my students brings in this site.[URL] My question is how I would go about making a parallax type scroller like this that works vertically and horizontally from the mouse position, and works with many more levels than this (like 20+ levels).
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a vertical news scroller, that will eventually load in from an external text file and then just scroll the text in a movie clip vertically. I have this working but I have a couple of questions.
1. As the text reaches the end of the scroll I want it to start to fade out, I've added a IF statement to do this but it doesn't seem to fire. Why is this?
2. Even though I don't have any easing the scroll seems to slow down as its nearing the end of the animation, do you know why this is happening?
Code:
import gs.TweenLite;
import gs.easing.*;
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(0,1);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, scrollNow);

I'm trying to combine a couple different dynamic image galleries. I've got a thumbnail scroller but I'd like it to rotate 8 every eight seconds until a thumbnail is clicked.
I'm clueless here. I could probably come up with a jacked up workaround if this wasn't dynamic, but it is.

I've tried for hours and days to make my vertical text content scroller working in a flash fake 3d environment with rotationX / Y. But because of vector>bitmap conversion when 3d roationing, the scroller fails to works. I know the stratDrag method fails to work in a 3d environment. other than using PV3D or so ? cause I don't know how to work with PV3D, it's just tooooo complicated to get it for me.
View 1 RepliesI am creating a thumbnail scroller and I have everything set to work. The last final issue I'm having is this:
The scroller displays 25 items.
8 at a time.
When you page left/page right it scrolls to the next(or previous) 8 thumbs in the list.
This is what we want to happen:
Once the final (25th) thumb is reached it starts over on the first thumb again and we are back at 1. So that it becomes an endless loop.[code]...
I am trying to use rhamejs slideshow (located here) and I would like to move the scroller to a certain position on the stage but I'm not sure how to do it. My stage is 900px wide with a nav bar along the bottom. All I want to do is move the scroller to the right of my nav buttons and left of another button that is in the far right corner. I would like to stay within that space which expands depending on your browser/screen size. The main stage is set up to resize based on browser/screen size and all the nav buttons are anchored. I basically need the left edge of the scroller to be 535px from the left edge of the stage at all timesI need the right edge of the scroller to be 185px from the right edge of the stage at all times. I have tried editing these lines but after the width of your window gets to a certain point, the thumbs stop scrolling or disapear completely:
Code:
if (nav == "nobuttons") {
scroller._x = 0;
