ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Thumbnail Grid?
Feb 4, 2010
i have a grid of thumbnails (i loop through an xml file to create and display) this is working perfectly.I can trace out click commands on the MCs and load in an image just as you'd want to.I load the image into a thumbMC i created with some additional symbols in...Then i started thinking, it would be nice to have some kind of preloader for each image/thumbnail.I've implemented a MovieClipLoader and this is quite happily loading in the images and reporting when the load is complete, however i am completely unable to target my preloader symbols within this function, so am unable to either control the width of a loadbar, and also show/hide a loadLoop while the image loads.

I really like the thumbnail gallery for its simplicity and beauty. But I would like to ad or vertical scroller (I'm unable to find it here too, maybe I'm blind, just I'm more at the end of my seeking options) or a make a grid thumbnails, that will show 2 columns of thumbs and 5 pictures in each columns, then under the 2 columns i would like to ad a sort of arrow or button that if my gallery have more then 10 pictures it will go on the next thumbnail list. I'm not looking for any extra fading effects or special movements. Just would love to have a single thumbnail grid on side, with option to have lists of thumbnails by 10 if there is more then 10 pictures or so.

I followed the tutorial on how to incorporate thumbnails into a flash/XML gallery. [URL]
How would I do the same thing but using a grid of thumbnails instead of the scroller? Can this grid be made to appear dynamically?

I'm trying to add a new row to dynamically created thumbnail grid. So far I've copied and edited a BrainGiants PhotoDrop menu script and managed to add an new row there with a nested for loop, but the thumbnails on the new row won't show right. There's just one thumb showing, I guess the rest of the thumbs are beneath the one showing..I'm messing up the for loop somehow, but can't get a hold of it.. I know all the thumbs load fine cus I've tried to load them to just one row and all of them showed up properly.

I have a question regarding the following tutorial and an older (inactive?) forum thread based around it:
Adding Thumbnails Tutorial XML and Flash Photo gallery with thumbnails in a grid (2006 - 2009)
I have multiple pages, several with thumbnail galleries, and several without. On the pages with the galleries, everything appears to render correctly. However, when I go from a gallery page to a page without a gallery, the thumbnails don't disappear. Instead, they remain on top of that page's content.
How do I get rid of the thumbnail gallery on non-gallery pages?
Code for the galleries:
Code:
cliparray = [];
columns = 3;
spacex = 100;

how to create a xml photo gallery but somehow all of them doesn�t discuss what i need to know. [code].....Especially i am interested in howto structure the xml for such an portfolio / gallery grid and having custom tweening for the thumbs to transition in and transition out, handling the click event for x thumb and loading the "big" content to a new container. Adding preview/next button functionallity to the Thumbnail Grid and for each "big" content and so on.

I was looking for a way to make different grid layouts for xml loaded jpg thumbs, so I read and applied a lot of the tutorials and posts about galleries, xml, thumbs and grids around here. Some of the script I used comes from Kirupa's adding thumbs tutorial. I also applied the concept in Creating Grids with Flash/AS. The result is attached here. A lot of the parameters, like row and column numbers and scaling of the thumbs,spacing, alpha, rotation, etc, can be changed easily in the script. Also, the idea is that you could write different prototype functions to get different grid layouts effects.

I am trying to get my thumnails to load in rows, 22 across, and up to 3 rows down. However, I can't seem to get my math right. I can get them to load up and down 3 rows, but not across first. Can anyone explain the math required to accomplish this?

I am working on my very first flash application and have found these forums very helpful so I have decided to post here since I'm stuck. I have taken the thumbnail gallery ikim posted on this thread and im trying to tweak it to my needs. When the thumbnails are loaded i would like to implement an onrelease function to tween the image to the middle of the screen, then slide to the right and increase the size. I have written the actionscript that will move the image. However, my problem is, i need to have the thumbnail slide from its original position to the middle of the screen. I thought i could do this by passing the parameters of _x, _y in the function and setting the motion accordingly. Being a newbie to AS, I am having trouble with getting ikim's gallery to accomodate this functionality. I tried using getproperty to get the _x, _y coordinates but this only returns the coordinates for the beginning position of the image and i need the ending position coordinates. I assumed I need to call getproperty at a later time, but I am not sure how to reference the thumbnails since it appears to me that they are being dynamically named and created the same.

I have made a image-viewer. I've this AS for the viewer:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
function loadXML(loaded) {[code].....
Now i would like to make a loop for the thumbnails so they don't have a beginning or end(Now when i scroll to the right the thumbnails stop at the last thumbnail, i want it to begin at the first thumb again).I'm also trying to make that the middle thumbnail represents the photo in target_mc.

I am making a gallery, which you can view here:[URL]ok, firstly, when you click a thumbnail, you cannot scroll them until you roll off the click thumbnail, and I'm not sure why. is it just a movieclip thing? or can I put some code in to re-get focus of something? ok, now for the two general questions:
1. When you roll over the thumbs, they go up, sometimes they flick back down though, even though you are rolled over them still. is this just because they are moving?
2. Does anyone know why when I add this:

Im trying to create via xml and a for() loop a thumbnails wiewer and each thumbnail have a simple onrelease function.....but my probleme is that my 'container' movieClip and 'BT' movieClip dont show when I export the movie...also when i trace()them the output is empty. maybe is because they are inside x.onLoad(xml){} function ? At the end of the script you can remove // before the trace() function for ckecking in the output panel. here is my code:
xml file: TumbLoader.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><slideshow><photos thumbnail="thumbnail/1.jpg" /><photos thumbnail="thumbnail/2.jpg" /><photos thumbnail="thumbnail/3.jpg" /><photos[code]...

I'm currently working with the OLAPDataGrid component and got stuck at a relatively simple task: I want to style the last row of the grid differently from the rest, so my cell item renderer needs to know whether he's rendering the last row with content in the overall grid, including those rows currently not rendered because they are outside the visible grid space. AdvancedGridListData's rowIndex property only gets me the row index of the renderer relative to the range of visible grid rows, i.e. when I scroll down the grid, a data item with an index greater than 0 gets the rpw index = 0.

I need to create a simple multiplication grid where children will fill the grid. Its an empty grid at the begining, when they start the time start as well.Its a grid of 10 x 10. when they enter the last number, the grid should show what they did wrong and the time they spend. It's an idea of how it could work but if anyone has something that looks like this.

I want to make a square grid of fixed side length but varying grid number using code.That is, the number of grids should be specified by the user (say 3*3) and after pressing a button, the stage should be broken into 3*3 grids.I don't want any code, just a method on how to do it. I have tried it by using simple loops but the method just fails for no reason I can figure.

Whenever I add paddingRight to a column in the flex grid, it adds the padding to the header as well.Is anyone familiar with how I can add paddingRight just to the column and not to the header? Below is the column code where I was specifying the padding.
<mx:DataGridColumn width="60" headerText="Type" dataField="Grade" headerStyleName="headerLeft" textAlign="left" draggable="false" resizable="false" headerRenderer="GridHeaderRenderer" paddingRight="5"/>

I'm building a small editor that allows users to place electrical components onto a grid so that they can see how electricity works. I have built a grid using an array and for loops and attach movieclips dynamically to that grid. What I want the moviclips to do is to look in the four spaces either side of itself i.e. up, down,left and right.I have managed to pull the grid coordinates out of the grid which enables me to tell the clip which grid space to look at but have been unable to successfully get the code to work.Here is my code:
myGrid = [[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
[1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],
[1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1],[code]....

I'm trying to code the snap to grid functionality. The dragged object should snap to the grid if the distance between the object bounds and a grid line is less than 5px. I found a way to do it if the object's rotation is 0 but it doesn't work if I rotate the object. I need a different approach. Can you point me into the right direction with the algorythm or any source code?

Yes, I'm making a photo gallery like everyone else. I'm making it so people can order pics from the site. There are going to be about 500 photos per album in 5 different categories. The photos can be shrunk down to about 60kb a piece. If I use the actual pictures as thumbnails, just scaled down, the total size of all the pics will be about 30mb. I know this is a lot.
Either way, the people looking at the album will most likely look at nearly all the pics so they will be using up bandwidth either way. Plus, if I use the actual pics as thumbs the user will not have to wait to see actual pic when it's clicked on because it's already loaded. A preloader is annoying to me. I do realize a preloader would be wise when loading the thumbs. Just dislike them after you click one for the big picture.
So is using shrunken thumbs a necessity or if the big pic is under a certain size it shouldn't matter if I use it for a thumb also?

I am working on a flash photogallery. It is pretty basic, just consists of thumbnails. The larger images are on another page all together. I didn't write this script myself, I'm still learning. So i grabbed a flashmo file. It is flashmo_067.Anyways, i changed some things around. I made the images scroll with the mouse and i took out alot of the extra stuff in the gallery. I also changed the document size and the thumbnail size.I created thumbnails to the exact size i made the holder in the flash file. Yet when i pull up the movie, the images are doubled in size and are overlapping. I have looked at the actionscript a bunch of times and still cant figure it out. I changed the size of the thumbnail to be smaller but it just blows it up and makes it very pixelated. I cant seem to figure it out.

We bought this Flash template to save time:to make this siteI knew a template would limit us (especially since I only know HTML/a little CSS), but of course, we need a few tweeks. To save time (and if anyone is interested), I have uploaded the source files so you can see the structure here:The flash file is set up like this:Fla file for all the image souces & layoutIndex.html File has some sort of fancy javascriptText.html file is the editable file where non-flash-knowing dingbats like me can just edit the text and POOF! Magic!I know I have bastardized them from the original and some stuff is probably wonky.The biggest problem is that the "thumbnails" that you click on at the starpage are auto-generated, cropping the top left 100x100 square. I don't know why this is the case, and honestly, I think it looks awful.
Is there any way to manually set the thumbnail images, so they are cropped artistically rather than randomly? I asked the template tech support and they told me to "make my images 100x100". I did that for the first blue logo, and it looks like CRAP! Sure, I have the icon I would like, but when someone goes to browse the gallery, they get a 100x100 icon displaying instead of a lovely fullscreen pic.
