ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Jpeg Background Preloading?
Apr 19, 2004
I'm doing this in an effort to make viewing a product catalogue better to view on dial-up, basically the next image should load in the background while the current one is being loaded.
I was thinking of making an object for each clip, although I'm getting a little lost on this, its late and I need to get to bed, so I thought I'd throw it up on here and see if anyone has any ideas!
Basically, right now the previous/next buttons aren't dissapearing when they should be and the previous image doesn't appear to be cached (needs to be tested in a browser to see this)

I need to preload an external swf in my file - but I don't want a preloader bar or count or anything - I simply want it to perform in the background - and if done proceed to a certain frame. I've been googling preloaders for a bit now and they all have the bars and percentage count - and I couldn't seem to customize it.

Me and My friend building part of a site in AS2 which needs to preload images while the user is on the site. For example:
Illustration section has 10 images
A user clicks on the link for this section the images will begin to preload without the user knowing. They will be able to click on a link for an image and it will either display if fully loaded, or continue to load as a priority over the other images that are loading until it is ready to be displayed.

So I have a video that is actually the background of the website. The video is resizing proportionally when user resizes the browser. The AS3 code is written on base of FLV component. The sound is also external mp3 imported with AS3 code. These are the facts and it works.Now the problem: The preloader calculates only the bytes of the movie including mp3, but doesn't calculate the bytes of external FLV, which makes the the movie and the mp3 play before the FLV video starts playing. It makes a gap and it don't look good at all.

I would like to change the bacground image for the preloading bar in Flex, the one which appears before loading your application. This article describes the way in which you can change the background-color, but is there a way to add a background image (and keep the loading bar on top of that)?

Is there a way to tell flash to preload a number of swfs in the background (meaning no visual cue to the end user that this is happening), while the current movie is playing?The idea is when the user clicks on a button to move to another area, that swf has already been preloaded in to memory or cache and loads instantly.

I am creating a flash image gallery, much like flickr. I need the fullsize images to dynamically change size according to browser size /resize. The original images are of various sizes when i load them. I have set the _quality parameter to "BEST" on the clip I load the jpegs into. It actually works pretty smooth, but in between when there is some sharp lines in the image, it looks awfull - the line being cracky and disordered.

I am currently building a flash site which uses dynamic images throughout using loadMovie("picture.jpg", mc_name) to load them into various movie clips. This all works fine and the site is starting to look good, the only problem i have is with preloading. I have the main swf file and everything contained within it preloading with a progress bar at the start which works fine. When the movie loads the main homepage image slowly fades in, however as the loadMovie("home.jpg", homepic) is on the same frame as the homepage, if you don't have the image in your cache then you miss the fade completely in the time it takes the image to load.
As a result i am wanting to preload this (and a few other) images during the initial preloader if possible, that way i can prevent this problem from occurring. Unfortunately from what i understand i can't run loadMovie from within my preloader actions as they're in a different frame so i'm really not sure how to do it, given the image is external

I have a dynamic jpeg that is being loaded into an empty holder movieClip that is on the stage... i had been using an onEnterFrame to try to see when that jpeg has been loaded in, but there was still a delay before it showed up...anyway, im trying to get it to work now using MovieClipLoader, and using the following code:
Code:
stop();
var pic_mc = new MovieClipLoader();
var preload = new Object();
pic_mc.addListener(preload);
[code]....
it just sits on the frame with the cover over the image... so something is obviously wrong with it.

My flash site is comprised of about 10 to 12 dynamically loaded external images, which are declared as Loader class instances, loaded, then placed on the stage. I set up a basic external pre-loader but just as I suspected it would, the pre-loader loads the swf of my main site but when the swf is loaded the external dynamic content of the main site still has to be loaded. How can I go about preloading dynamic content? Because what I want is all the assets that make up the site to be there and loaded, when the pre-loader is done.

Code:
Scratch.prototype.loadImages = function() {
for(i = 1; i <= 6; i++) {
tempObj= _root.mcContainer["mcBox" + i].mcPhotoContainer;
[Code]....
As you can see, I'm dynamically loading 6 images into 6 boxes (containers). What I'm trying to make is preloader that shows the loading-status of all six images. So I need the totals (total filesize of the 6 images, and the total amount of loaded bytes)... But it doesn't seem to work this way

I have been working on my online portfolio lately and ran into a problem which I initially thought I had solved.I had been loading dynamic images from an XML file into an empty MC using the 'loadMovie' function. No problems. I even had them preloading nicely using a preloader and a bit of script.However, I wanted to be able to rotate these images, and when I did, they lost their quality. I found this was actually an issue with Flash and that it does not by default smooth externally loaded images.
Code:
import flash.display.*;
function loadBitmapSmoothed(url:String, target:MovieClip) {
// Create a movie clip which will contain our [code]....
I think the issue is that the 'getBytesTotal()' and 'getBytesLoaded()' functions do not work with the 'loadBitmapSmoothed()' function.
Problem is, I don't know how to edit the code to allow the preloader to work.

I have a main FLA which is a flip book (the one like you click or drag the corner and will flip the page to the next one). And I have a swf background (a dynamic swf with floating bubbles which will move following your cursors).
I tried to embed the swf background in a container and then put it to my main Flash file (the flip book). It works fine but once I click the Full Screen button, the main contain (i.e. the flip book) is still aligned to the Top Left corner.
I tried many times by changing the codes such as removing the line "stage.align = "TL"" but it still doesn't work.I am trying to complete 4 tasks:
1) To align the main content (flip book) to the center of the screen no matter in "Normal" or "Full Screen" modes
2) To add the swf dynamic background to the back but still the flipbook will be aligned in the center without any changes (no matter "Normal" or "Full Screen" modes)
3) Add a button to toggle Full Screen mode but the flip book will be kept in the absolute center of the screen
4) Right click the flash and will show a pop-up menu. If I click "designed by:", the whole screen will turn black (both "Normal" and "Full Screen" modes)
I try to list out the codes I have:
Toggle Full Screen
Code:
Stage.scaleMode="noScale";
bg_mc.loadMovie("background.swf");
[code]....

My dynamically loaded background is overlapping my buttons for audio on the stage.
My .fla is located at www.saleck.net/TEMP/U0863279.7z
There are 4 buttons and a Text box on Frame 1, but the background that is loaded in the code overlaps.

I have a method that takes a few paramerters and dynamicly adds three images to the stage it also adds a background image to the three images.I am trying to figure out the following: How can I tween in the background movieclip and on complete tween in the three dynamic movieClips? Can I have a function within a function that shares the same variables?
Something like the following:
public function addImages(BackGround:String,Image1:String,Image2:String,Image3:String):void
{
var symbol_class:Class = getDefinitionByName(BackGround);
var image1_class:Class = getDefinitionByName(Image1);
var image2_class:Class = getDefinitionByName(Image2);
