I am working on a website where I want certain images to load whenever a user clicks on a thumbnail. I want a preloader to appear before the image is displayed. I created this so far:
mcLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
loadListener = new Object();
mcLoader.addListener(loadListener);
mcLoader.loadClip("foto.jpeg", placeholder_mc);
loadListener.onLoadProgress = function(placeholder_mc, loadedBytes, totalBytes) {
[Code] ....
When I preview this of course I see my image, but I want to know if the preloader works. So I hit ctrl+enter again and... nothing. The progress bar (bar_mc) blinks once and then blank... a white screen... Besides, I want this code to be executed when a user clicks a thumbnail, how can I implement this on a button, while at the same time, the first thumbnail should load automatically, so there's no exmpty page when the user first opens the website?
I am building a portfolio site which dynamically loads large hi-res images when the user clicks on a thumnail. However I'm having problems maintaining the original image's quality when resizing it to fit the current browser. Currently I'm just adjusting the width & height properties of the image to width to the stage proportionally which is working fine getting it to fit, however I cannot figure out how to maintain image quality? Do I need to load it as a bitmap and redraw/smooth or something similar?[code]
View 1 RepliesI 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?
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;

I am building a flash application using flex. From time to time, I see an issue in IE 7 and 8 where the user logs into the site and the browser content pane is completely grey and the entire page (html, javascript and flash) won't load until the user clicks the X (Stop) button next the address bar. As soon as the X is clicked, the html loads and then the swf file loads immediately.
This doesn't happen for me or any other developers on the project so it is very hard to diagnose. The users are all using the latest flash player. The only difference between our setups that I can think of is that we have the debug version of flash player and they probably do not.
I have built a gallery similar to the one found on Kirupa with a siding thumbnail gallery that references xml. Everything works great except that the images I want to load at their large size vary in width so when they load referencing the upper left hand corner they are not centered. I would like to load them so that each image in centered in the "picture" image area. I created a new movie clip and gave it the instance name of "picture" and center justified it but the images now load with THEIR upper left corner in the center of the "picture" image area. do I have to add code to the xml? is there anything I can ad to th AS to load pictures centered?
View 4 RepliesI have a flash image gallery that loads images through xml. Images have to be croped for thumbnails. So u have to have two folders, one for the thumbnails an another file for the big size images. I would like to know if there is a way to load only one image ( and not this image's thumbnail too) and with a script or something, to resize this image to get the thumbnail. To make my self clearer here is the xml code:
image../gallery_flash/imageGallery/images/watches/i1005.jpg image
thumb../gallery_flash/imageGallery/thumbs/watches/i1005.jpg thumb
(For some reason it doesnt show the xml right...) I dont want to have the line (thumb>../gallery_flash.), but only load one image and get the thumbnail also.
I am going to create a scrolling panel with quite large image. The height will be 400px and the width will be different from image to image.
If I do this in only flash the swf will be too large for use on the Internet. So I want to load the images from a xml-document. And this is my problem:
How do I load my images into the panel from an xml-document? And the width of my panel should be as long as the total width of the images are.
I can't seem to wrap my head around this image loading problem with my actionscript 3.0 project. I suspect it has something to do with how I have the crossDomain.xml set up. The problem is that I can load youtube movie thumbnail images from [URL] into flash and display them completely fine when testing/running the SWF in a stand alone (local) player. But when I upload the SWF and test it through the web I receive Sandbox Errors and Security Violations. Here is my crossDomain.xml (stored on the root of the server):

I have a problem with a dynamic video player that I have created in flash. The video player is "SCORM" compliant so that when the user clicks the "exit" button a class file is called to mark the user complete in an LMS.I have tested the SCORM Code previously and it works with out issue. Usually I have the completion code embedded in an Actions Layer of the movie. This is the first time I have attempted to call the completion status in a class file, I have added a "trace statement" when the movie is tested within flash it runs the trace statement properly, but when uploaded to the LMS environment the course does not complete properly

View 1 RepliesI'm converting some old Director/Shockwave animations to Flash, and I'm setting up a navigation system. I have a simple animation that runs from from 1 to frame 110, and I'd like it to loop until the user clicks a button. The timeline goes on beyond frame 110 with other stuff. In an "actions" layer in frame 110, I have the following
gotoAndPlay(1);
I thought that this would lead to the looping, but it doesn't. The movie just moves on beyond frame 110. Just as a test, I put the following at frame 110 instead.
stop();
and when I test the movie, it doesn't stop. The commands don't seem to be seen.
I want the ability to go back to frame 1 when a user clicks anywhere on the stage that doesn't contain an object. Is this possible?

I am editing a template made with as2, flash8 and its controlled externally by a html file. I want to add a gallery when the end-user clicks on a picture. The main problem is the structure of the template. Its like that: There is a symbol named "pages" and in that there are 6 frames which one represents a page of the website except the main menu which is in another symbol. In the 4th layer 3rd frame there are 6 movie clips which are instances of another symbol named "p1_3 copy 2" which is a button and an instance of another button named "but_picts". One of those movie clips i want to make it a link for my gallery. So we there is the movie clips with the following actionscript attached:
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent(load) {
loadMovie(_root.url + "_portfolio1.jpg", this.cont);
url=_root.url7;

View 1 RepliesI have a portfolio_mc that is inside of a content_mc (stage->content_mc->portfolio_mc). There are 3 buttons that take the user to an appropriate frame designated by a frame label and this loads up an FLV. The problem is that when I click on any of the navigation buttons on the main timeline, the FLV that is currently playing, is still playing (I can hear the audio). How to stop this.
Here is the code used for controlling the buttons in the motion_mc timeline:
stop();

btn01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);

I'm a student at Drexel University and I just completed a basic platformer for a actionscript class. My professor docked me some points for the game not working until the user actually clicks within the swf. I've heard that this problem is caused on mac osx, but I don't have any concrete evidence to get the points back. Here's a link to the game if you want to check it out.

I've made a flex 3 app that is sitting on my web server. People will be able to link to this flex app on my web server on their own sites/blogs/forums and so on. Is there any way I can log where a user that clicks on it comes from? Example: the URL to the flex app is [URL] User A links the flex app at his blog at [URL] Then User B comes in to User A's blog and clicks the flex app and finally ends up at my site. Any way I can log User B's click through the flex app?

Right now, I define a custom Context menu in each different class that needs a unique menu.

View 5 RepliesI am using an array to load flvs when a user clicks a button, however the scrubber (seek bar) doesn't reset back to the beginning of the next video and the play button turns to a pause (meaning the user has to notice that and click the play button, which I don't want them to have to do).
