When doing a preview, flash loaded quite fast and you were able to see the preview in only a few seconds! But suddently it has become slow! Now it runs to about 80-90% in loading when pressing CTRL+Enter and then it stops, and you have to wait like 10 seconds to see a preview.. Why is that? The file only contains around 100 lines of AS and 2 images!!
View 4 RepliesI can easily make a dynamic image with one or two lines of symmetry.
My normal approach is to take a square image and mirror it once too make one line of symmetry like this:
and then to make two lines of symmetry I can just mirror that image with one line of symmetry as well, making something like this:
images with 2 lines of symmetry work really well for 2D tessellations, but for 3D tessellations I need 4 lines of symmetry.
this is a problem since the way you'd normally do this is to basically fold the square in half both ways diagonally, which gives you triangles instead of rectangles.
this makes it harder to use rotation matrices to mirror the source image.
has anyone come up with a good way to give a source image that you can loop through every pixel quickly and mirror it in such a way that it has 4 lines of symmetry?
i have this completed so far, but i need the texture map to have 4 lines of symmetry, not 2 like it currently does.

Alright im trying to figure out how to take the xml gallery tutorial, and add the ability to add lines to the xml from the swf itself.The swf would just be 2 text boxes, one having the url to the image, and one for the caption

View 1 RepliesMy code is on the main timeline.I call a function loop to draw lines between them.The lines are drawing between the right x, y values BUT between those values on the main stage, not those values within the kite.For example, dot1_mc is at x100, y0 inside kite. the line that should go from its center, draws from stage x100, 0.How do I draw the lines inside kite so that they draw between the dots?Heres my code that draws the linesPHP Code:
function loop():void{ lineDrawing.graphics.clear(); var a:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot1_mc.x, kite_mc.dot1_mc.y); var b:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot2_mc.x, kite_mc.dot2_mc.y); var c:Point = new

I have an animation that reads some info from a txt file (such a bkg color, bkg image and text). So I would like to make my main animation in the root to repeate a segment of the animation (beteween 50 and 80 frame) or to loop an MC so many times like the number of lines in this txt file.
For exapmle if I have in my txt 6 lines to go from 50 to 80 frames, that again to 50 and like this 6 times (e.g. to repeat this segment 6 times)
I have a text field that i have set to load several lines of text from an XML file.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="uft-8"?>
<imageText>
<text>
<text1>text for image one <br> line 1 <br> line 2 <br> line 3</text1>
</text>
</imageText>
it loads into flash fine but when i try make it a global variable it only takes the "text for image one" because it thinks the <br>'s are tags. flash the turns the above code into:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="uft-8"?><imageText><text><text1>text for image one <br> line 1 <br> line 2 <br> line 3</br></br></br></text1></text></imageText>
i need this tag to be in there to show that its a new line.

View 5 RepliesI would like to see a line of a text file on the frame that I want (and view it in a dynamic text). This is my text file:
Foo
Candy
Bar
Dog
This is my code in the first frame:
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
firstLine.wordWrap=true;
firstLine.autoSize=TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {

With this I can see "Foo" in the first frame. How could I see "Candy"? a second frame. Is it repeated all this code again? Is there any way to just invoke the Lines array:
Array = e.target.data.split (/ n /)
And obtain the desired Item?

Would anyone have an idea why some images (being pulled into a FLA file via a UI loader) would show up in my SWF file (on my harddrive) BUT, will not show up when I upload the SWF/Images to the ftp/web??
It works perfectly fine on my local harddrive. The UI loader has the correct AS coded, and it successfully brings in the images when I look at the SWF file on my computer. However, when I upload the SWF file to the web, it will not show the images being brought in by the UI loader?
I made double sure that the images were actually uploaded to the website, and they were. I even took the WHOLE site down, and reuploaded it, again, making sure the images I am referring to are up on the web. It all looks correct to me.
I'm creating a web site using adobe flash cs4. I need to insert an images slideshow but i have a problem and I cannot understand what is the solution.

View 5 RepliesI have what I'm sure is a very basic flash question. I have a flash movie (swf) and the accompanying fla file. I can open the fla file, and see all the images used in the file (symbols in the library), but how can I export or save one of these images separately from flash?
View 3 RepliesI have a project in AS3 which has 20 different images, I have animated these instances images (mouseOver), at present all images are in the library (movieclip), but now every time that I want to change an image I have to change the whole FLASH file.
Can some one tell me how I can use a separate folder on my host site called (images) and use a XML file to pull each image from that folder rather than I use the actually image in the actual flash? This way I can easily change the images.
Also how can I add stroke to the image (a little white border around my images).
