ActionScript 3.0 :: Unable To Build A Portfolio?

Oct 21, 2010

I'm trying to build a portfolio and I'm using a var imageNumber code to cycle through images on my page, but I want to have a dynamic text field caption change every time the image changes. I've found a way to do it (I made it bold), but the code is long and bothersome when there is a ton of images. Does anyone know a better way to do this?

Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
forwardBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Xml Driven Swf In A Xml Driven Flash Site?

Aug 23, 2009

I bought a flash site template that loads xml driven swfs inside the main swf as different menu items are clicked. The modules that come with the template work fine, but I don't know how to add a third party xml driven swf, so that it shows up properly. While the third party swf works fine as a standalone, the embedded version loads just an empty movie.

Flash :: Flex - TFS Build 2010 Call An Ant Script And / Or Build?

Mar 31, 2011

In TFS 2010 build, I have a new build and I want to call an ant script that builds Flash. How do I call the ant script? Also How can I compile the Flash directly? I've seen the Power Tools and this question but it doesn't help me as we don't have TFS 2008. I can't find any documentation on how to use the power tools except the 1 sentence on the bottom of download page saying to create your build the old way and import it (which isn't very helpful). I've installed the power tools on the agent computer but I don't see any new options in the Toolbox when I'm designing the build flow.

Flex :: Creating Ant Build Script To Build Only When A Dependency Was Updated?

Apr 14, 2011

I just started working with ant a few days ago. Right now I have a general buildall.xml which should call each project's build.xml. Because some projects depend on each other, I need to rebuild some other projects which depend on it. This isn't a problem--I'm just setting the depends property of the target. However, ant is always building the dependencies, even when the files haven't changed.Let's say project1 has no dependencies; project2 depends on project1; project3 depends on project1, 2; project4 depends on project1, 2, and 3; and so on.I could hack a solution which looks at project K, and checks if project 1 .. project K have updated files using uptodate. If so, then run the target. This is messy and appears unnecessary.

What is the cleanest way to implement this?EDIT: So I decided to just hack in a bunch of targets, "check_projectK" where it does the uptodate checks on all of its source files, its build file, and the build files of the 1 .. K-1 projects. Due to dependencies, this is always handled correctly. However, this is still a large amount of copy and paste for a large workspace.

Eclipse :: Retrieve Build Information After Build Completes In FDT?

Jul 30, 2011

Using FDT, when I have a debug configuration with several operations in the launcher chain and the final launcher opens in Flash Player, how can I retrieve the build output from the console once the build is complete and Flash player is running?

It seems that once Flash Player has started the console clears to make way for the application's trace output, but I need to be able to look back over the events and build times for each item in my launch chain while Flash Player is running. Is there a setting I can enable to either log my build output to a file or to preserve it in the console?

Edit: I know I can still read the info when building normally, this question is specifically for building with the debugger.

Professional :: Setting Up A Video Portfolio?

Mar 16, 2010

My company has 50 flv files that we regularly show to clients. I was planning to set up a website that had all 50 videos on it and the client could pick and choose what videos they want to watch by selecting thumbnails. The problem is that our account executives want to be able to choose what videos are available for them to watch, so they can't watch the entire library. I can't be chaning the interface for each client request, so I am thinking the account excutive could select from a list of videos and send them a link that only has those thumbnails of those videos on it.

Any ideas on how this could be accomplished? It is kind of like having an interface for the account executives with a menu of movies, and then a different interface for the client to play the movies chosen for them in the order in which they choose. It would dynamically build according to the account executives selections.

gotoAndStop("branding");

branding.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onbrandingClick);
 
All my menu buttons are working until I click on portfolio which has 6 different catergories and it just stops at branding and the other category buttons wont work. They are all set up fine with instances and such. However the buttons in the menu will still work.This might be confusing but I am up for sending the file to show someone if anyone is interested!

ActionScript 2.0 :: Setup A Dynamic Xml Portfolio?

Sep 15, 2010

I'm pretty new to the action script side of things, but am starting to get the hang of it. I've been following a computer arts tutorial to set up a dynamic xml portfolio, which has been going well, however the problem is the tutorial is just for a one page portfolio, when I try and link more than one page I hit a problem, the menu info on first won't go away.

What it needs is a line or two of code that closes the previous movie clip, when a new one is loaded, if any of you out there can help with this I'd be massively grateful - this problem has literally had me pulling out hair for the last week.

here is the relevant bit of code, if it helps I can upload the fla and xml too.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Sen's XML Portfolio -how To Make Page No's

May 25, 2005

I've been through Senoculars XML tutorial which can be found here and went further to read another thread (here ). about extending the Portfolio to allow for more thumbs--implementing a scrollbar-to Scotty This brings me to my questionQ: How can I do away with any scrolling and implement page numbers instead? So users could click the page numbers to go to the next lot of thumbnails in the section instead of scrolling up and down. The image below illustrates what im trying to achieve. As you can see I would like it to show current page, and overflow for page numbers that wont fit within the area dictated on the stage (rather like how threads work in this forum)

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Portfolio Infinite Menu?

Mar 13, 2005

I've tried applying Ilyas' infinite menu to the Senocular's XML portfolio. However, the movement looks bad--you can see where the thumbs stop and begin. I was wondering how this could be fixed??

Also, would it be possible that when you click on a thumbnail, a PDF file is launched? How could I do this from the XML file? I'm trying to create a continuous scrolling horizontal menu. The menu would contain pictures of news articles and when you click on the picture, you could read the article in the PDF!

Since each article is pretty long, like news clippings, I don't think having this info in a flash pop-up box would work?

How To Add Scroll Feature To One Of Page On Portfolio Site

Jun 16, 2009

I'm working on building a personal portfolio site right now. I wanted to add a scroll feature to one the pages. I wasn't sure how to build it, so I down loaded one off here [URL] and just plugged my own graphics into it. It scrolls up and down just fine, but when I try to put a mask over it, it doesn't work. In the content the author wrote for his movie he says "Note: If you want to have a mask over the content: copy MC:frame and make it a mask for MC:Page. If you do so, notice that "non-anti-alias text" is not possible anymore. This is a common thing in a Flash Movie. I keep trying that and it just blocks everything out all together. So what am I doing wrong?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Portfolio - TellTarget Value Of Variable

Jun 11, 2010

I am working on a portfolio in flash which dynamically defines the target of the buttons. When a button is click an external swf is loaded, and the button sends the value of a variable to the loaded swf. So far I got it to work as I want it to, BUT the ouput-panel keeps giving the message:
Target not found: Target="this._parent.project" Base="_level0.button_1"

I am using this code:
on (release) {
this._parent.project.loadMovie("project.swf");
tellTarget ("this._parent.project") {
pnumber = a;
}}

The "pnumber" var is used in de project.swf to define a folder. "a" is a var with a numeric value. I know the tellTarget is an old-fashioned way of scripting, but so far it is the only piece of script that actually does what I want it to do (except for the error-message)
I tried:

Code:
on (release) {
this._parent.project.loadMovie("project.swf");
this._parent.project.pnumber = a;
}
But this resulted in an undefined var in my target clip, while the tellTarget did return the value for 'a'/'pnumber'.

Professional :: Preloader For Portfolio - Stutters On All The Images

I have created a portfolio with flash using action script 2. But when I click on the button going to the portfolio Scene (containing pictures and tweens) it stutters on all the images when they are first clicked on. As the image increases in size, it is a smooth tween until the one from last frame which it stops then flashes on to the final frame. Is there a way I can preload all the images so that this will not happen? Or anything else I could do?
