im after achieving an effect similar to movie credits with text automatically scrolling upwards, im loading the text in via xml and have for example

item two
item three

I know ZERO about flash/actionscript and have been tasked with creating a vertical text/html scroller. This would act like a news ticker but would scroll several paragraphs of text with images vertically continuously.
Here is a sample of the data that i would like to scroll vertically:
<image>
some text here
some more text
<image>
more text
more text
This pattern would repeat and the script would continuously scroll the information. I will be pulling that data from XML as HTML but i think i have that part under control. Just cant seem to get a sample of scrolling html/text.
I am trying to make a scrolling banner. I have succeeded so far in making it scroll from right to left and it loops. However my problem is this - I need for the looping to start when the graphic is at position X (x being a frame number).
View 3 RepliesI'm currently trying to add an autoscrolling text box. The text that will display in the box will be variable. I want this text to then scroll left and right to display all the characters.I have added a scrollbar from the components, but i want the text to scroll by itself rather than have to drag the scrollbar manually if the text string is too long. How do i create the variable text entry?How do i make that variable text scroll?What im working on is a very simple game. After the into screen i want a box to ask for the names of two teams. The player types in the variables. The text entered is then displayed in the respective text boxes, IF the text is too long to all fit in the box i want it to autoscroll, if it fits then no scrolling is necessary.
View 3 RepliesI'm creating a Flash game...blackjack, actually. It uses a back-end made from Java.Anyway, there's a basic chat in the game, where new messages are added to the bottom...pretty much your standard chat window.This is how I do it now:txtArea.verticalScrollPosition = txtArea.maxVerticalScrollPosition;However, that does not always work. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't (oddly enough). I'm looking for a permanent solution. txtArea is the component TextArea (d'uh), and I'm using ActionScript 2.0.

i have the above code wherein i load data from external text file i want the text to be vertcically auto scrolling on load without any scroll bar
I put a text area component on stage and set the vertical scrolling to Auto, so now when ever I have to much text the scroll bar pops up, but the problem is that I can't get the scroll bar to always be on the bottom, so when ever I add more text I always have to use my mouse and drag the scroll bar to view the latest info, is there a way that I can see the latest update without having to manually scroll down?

View 1 RepliesI have about 27 photos. They are all 250x188. I would like the work space to be 250x564 so that 3 photos display first and they keep scrolling from the bottom to the top continuously through all the photos and repeat. Could someone recommend the best way to do this in Flash CS4. I am totally new to this.
View 9 RepliesThe file reads images from Images folder.But the problem is that its leaving a gap in the end and the start.Also the funny thing is the XML reads from the last node instead of the first.What I want is the images to scroll Continuously Without leaving gap.
Here's the Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
//test=xmlNode;

Im new to AS3 (like 5 hours new) and Im after getting stuck with something Im sure is very simple, but Im just not having much luck finding a solution. Basically I have a button which I want to click and hold and then make a movieclip move up and down the y axis. This is what I have so far...
[Code]...
Im sure Im probably going about it in a bizarre way, Im just trying to do it in a way which makes sense to me. So far its working fine for single clicks, so I click the button and the "upwards" function is called which moves the movieclip upwards by 10. The problem Im having is getting it to move continously when the button is clicked and held. Ive read a few possible suggestions relating to loops and setinterval but I just cant seem to make sense of them in a way that applies to what I want to do. Apologies if this is really simple but Ive literally been teaching myself actionscript for all of about 5 hours in total so far and I just cant seem to get past this hurdle.
I followed a tutorial at [URL]. I used this tutorial because I was interested in a continuously scrolling panel of Thumbnails instead of one that stops when you reach the end. Perhaps people know of another tutorial that accomplishes this and I can just use that one instead? While I can accomplish what he accomplishes, there was (I thought) an easy change. Instead of continuously scrolling I want the thumbnails to only scroll when the mouse is hovering over the thumbnails. You can see the current state of things at: [URL]. And the offending AS is below. I thought I could begin by telling the scrollbar to stop if myVar was equal to false, but I don't even know how to word that.
ActionScript Code:
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(_root._ymouse<400 and _root._ymouse>480){
myVar=false;
} if(_root._ymouse>400 and _root._ymouse<480){
myVar=true;

Here is what I want to do with the page.The boxes at the bottom will be images either embedded in the movie or loaded dynamically that scroll from left to right until someone clicks on a link above. Once the button is pressed the scrolling images at the bottom will stop and slide to a designated image and turn it from black and white to color

View 1 RepliesI'm a flash newbie and have created a slideshow so that all the photos fade in and fade out. I've done it so they kind of fade into each other. So the timelines on each layer overlap. I want this slideshow running as a continuous loop so I've put a gotoandPlay(1) function at the end of the movie. My problem is the final image (number7) fades out but I don't know how to get it fading into the first photo again. So after the 7th image (the 2 bridesmaids) the movie completely fades out and then starts again. Is there a way I could make the first and last photos fade into each other rather than the last one fading out and starting again. The movie can be viewed here- sorry it takes a little time to get to the last image! [URL].
View 1 RepliesI have posted this question recently and I am desperate for a solution. I have a pre-loader which is causing a continuous loop.

remainingK = totalK-loadedK;

I am making a cloud background continuously loop using actionscript, however the image cuts itself off. I was following the tutorial at: [URL]. I attached a picture of what it looks like. Here's my code(very similar to above websites code)
Code:
animator = createEmptyMovieClip('animator',1);
bg_1 = animator.attachMovie('cloudsMC','bg_1',1);
bg_2 = animator.attachMovie('cloudsMC','bg_2',2);
bg_1._x = -bg_1._width/2;
bg_2._x = bg_2._width/2;
[Code] .....
This code is all in a movieclip named bg_mc. The width of cloudsMC is 1500 px. Why the image cuts off as it scrolls to the left?
i just want to have my music looping forever regardless of the timeline stopping and starting. is this possible?
View 1 RepliesI have a series of images that merged into one 2400 pixel wide jpg. I want this to loop continuously across the bottom of a website. I have tried using TweenLite and TweenGroup but cannot get that to behave correctly. Is there an Actionscript 3 way to do this? Ultimately this is being added to a Flex site.
