I have downloaded free version of itunesViewer and working on it. I found it was extensively using onEnterFrame which is taking lots of CPU, slowing the system.there's function 'controlTheObject' which contains onEnterFrame code. eliminate the use of onEnterFrame. Can there be other alternatives??
View 0 RepliesSomething that is similar to the Cover Flow in iTunes.
I can use Adobe Flash, Flex, or pure html/javascript.
HOWEVER, I need a pointed to production ready code. I've looked at plenty of examples in both Flex and HTML that aren't ready for prime time. No demo code needed.
Here's my requirements for production ready:
1) Memory leaks are under control.
2) Works like a river with larger data sets, paging in sub-sets in some set number. The component/code needs to be able to handle 100+ items to flow through, preferable up to 500.
I've got 4 button images that drop in when the movie starts, and when you click on an image it loads in an XML image flow. Problem is, when I click the "go back" button, it goes to frame 2 to start over, but the XML gallery/image-flow won't leave the stage. Link is below, code is attached.I've been pulling my hair out for a few days now

View 1 RepliesI have this world map (.swf file) that I want on my home page(black background). It's up and working fine, but it flashes a white blank map for about 2 seconds when it first loads and then it goes away. It looks very ugly on a black background and gives off a sense of "cheapness". Anyway, it has got to go. I purchased the world map and they don't offer access to the original .fla file. So basically I want to know how to cover up the first few seconds of the video with black and then have the black cover disappear and let the flash file do its thing.

View 1 RepliesI'm making a flash game for practice and I have my stage set up so there are 9 boxes. When the game is started, one of the boxes is randomized as the one with the start underneath, if you pick the box with the star underneath, you win.
The randomizing code is
var star = 1 + Math.Round(Math.Random()*8.0)//generate a number between 1 and 9
What i dont know is how to attach this code so that it assigns the star to one of my 9 boxes made as buttons. How can I hide the star underneath the box as a cover.
I'm trying to embed this player to a web page:

It's working fine, but I would like to remove the album cover from the player so it looks like on this page:

I looked at the documentation and also the source of this page
i really like this effect and i was wondering if anybody could point me to a tutorial that does something similar to this: i deleted the link because the site is not working anymore
View 2 RepliesI have a Youtube video on my homepage, and now I need a modal to display on certain events.For some reason, even when adding <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> to the Flash object, it still covers the HTML elements (with higher z-index too).I've got it on JSfiddle.I figured maybe an iframe could solve this, but that would require me to make a new page just to put the video on.

View 1 RepliesSpecifically, I have a demo of a flash game (sort of super mario style). In it I have two types of weapon - a simple fire and big fireball. I reviewed the code in order to learn flash better [I am very new - since around monday this week].
I saw that the program has a variable that keeps track of the number of uses I have left in each weapon. I tried to review all the places this variable was used but I couldn't find where it affects the drawing onto the screen.
I even tried removing the variable declaration and then testing it - so I may find all references to the variable -- By the way any convinient way of finding all references to a variable/method/class [I am using ADOBE FLASH CS5.5]?
Also, I tried changing the variables starting value to "12" and I noticed that when I test the game, the weapon has 12 uses indeed.
So my problem:1. It seems that this variable is somehow affecting the drawing. Yet, I don't know how it does so since all the code I have found that uses this variable has nothing to do with drawing. It is all, logic, like
if(var <= 0){
var--;
} else{
return false;
}
Where is this influence coming from?get all references to a variable[like in eclipse ctrl+shift+g]?
I am trying to create a zoom/pan effect for an image gallery. The thing is that i dont have any idea on how to do it so I've started to play with it. I created a zoom button that basically make the image bigger and a mask for the image so no matter how big you going to scale it its going to show the masked area only and if I want to pan all I have to do is move the image inside of the mask.
But my problem is that I use a MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN event on the zoom in button and the function scale it up and position it in the center only once. What I want to do is as long as the user have is mouse down the image will zoom and when the user releases the mouse it's going to stop. Thats the effect that im trying to achieve [URL]. But the cool thing about this gallery is that when you zoom in or out it actually ease out or in and stop and it run's really smooth.
maybe someone can explain how this image effect in the gallery was made?[URL]..
View 6 RepliesSo basically what I want is to have all my photos kind of scattered on the page like they`re just lieing there kind of. When you click one, that single photo zooms up to almost fill the page and rotates to go from crooked to straight. And then a button would appear saying Back to have it zoom back out to it`s place. kind of like this one click Woodward on the left, then click The Camp)

Click on the first and second thumbnail a few times so that everything is loaded (I didn't use preloaders etc for now).Notice the wipe when you click the thumbnail? I spent already a long time to create this :-)But now I want it to wipe out if you click another button, then wipe in again to show that new image etc... (like it is now, you have a white flash, really annoying).Here's my code that is on frame 1 of the timeline (I only have 1 frame in the timeline)
[Code]...
'navi' is the MC with all the buttons in it. 'vol01' and 'vol02' are instance names of the first two buttons. 'container' is an empty movieclip. 'wiper' is a white MC of which I change the width with actionscript = wiping effect.For now I load .swf files instead of jpg's, because when I put ("pic_01.jpg") instead of ("pic_01.swf"), it doesn't work. (edit: I found it, my jpgs were progressive...)
So basically what I want when the first pic is shown and you click on thumbnail2:
-wipe out image currently displayed
-load new image (pic_02)
-AFTER new image is fully loaded, wipe in to show this image and so on
What would be cool also is the following:
when you click button 2, load image 2 while image 1 is still displayed. When loading is finished, a white line goes from left to right, wiping out image 1 and at the same time wiping in image2.Note that there will be 4 of these galleries with +-80 thumbnails each...I read the transitions between external swf's tutorial, but I want to load a bunch of jpg's, and not make 4*80 swf's with each only 1 jpg in it...
My goal is to shoot a bullet everytime I click on ship. What happens, in fact, is that If I click on it once, the bullet is shot, but if I click on it twice before the first bullet is off the screen, the first bullet literally stops(it does not disappear, only stops) and the second bullet is shot.
public var ship:Ship = new Ship();
public var bullet:Bullet = new Bullet();
stage.addChild(ship);[code]...

View 1 RepliesI have build a gallery but its very simple. It takes images from xml file. I have attached all files in zip. First when I press next button it goes to next image but with no effect. It just displays next image. I want to incorporate a sliding effect when the image is changed to another. And second I want to use autoplay feature. As soon as swf starts the images came one by one with difference of few seconds.

I am trying to make an image gallery with pan and zoom effect on mouse over. Now what I want is exactly like this website [URL].
View 2 RepliesI followed the tutorial concerning the "Photo Gallery using XML and Flash", and everything works great. The only problem is that I have to make some alterations in the initial code, and I just can't get it right.
Here's what I have to do:
1. Introduce a fade out that intertwines with the fade in of the nextImage;
2. Add a link to the xml, so that when the user clicks the images, each leads to a different page.
To achieve this, I've tried to play around with the alpha values on prevImage, slideshow, and nextImage functions, but as for the results either the pictures don't appear, or simply flash intermittently when they do. As for the Link part, I've trying to introduce a <link> line on the xml file, and put a 'href' value on the <image> line. None worked.
I am new in the marvelous world of flash 8. I am building now my photo galley that I will then include in my Web site. Here are my 2 questions : My pics are featured in a big display with a thumb gallery under it. Until now I managed to create a mouse rollover effect on the thumbnails so that a big image of the thumbnail appear in the big display when I roll my mouse over its thumb. Codes are ok everything work perfectly. I want now to create 2 things :
1 : I want my images to appear in the big display by fading and
2 : I want a bigger preview window of my thumb when I roll over my mouse on each of them ( the preview window appear more or less like a tooltip and strech)
Here is the code I basically use for the gallery I achieved till now.
btn1_btn.onRollOver= function(){
myScreen_mc.gotoAndStop(1); };
btn1_btn.onPress = function() {
getURL("04big.jpg"); };
btn2_btn.onRollOver= function(){
myScreen_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
} btn2_btn.onPress = function() {
getURL("06big.jpg"); };
I'm looking for a way to setup a slideshow of pictures that I can control with Actionscript. I've come up with something using setInterval, but I'm having problems with that, so I'm looking for an alternative method. I have maybe 5 photos. Starting with the first photo I'd like to have it slowly fade on, when it reaches an alpha of 99 or higher, it will wait a certain amount of seconds and then the next picture will fade in. I'd like to do this automatically through actionscript, don't want to use keyframes or animations.
View 1 RepliesI'm looking to simply append the following text to an existing spark.components.TextArea's text flow:
<b>something</b>: hello world
I have attempted to do this using the following code, but nothing happens:
this.textarea.textFlow.addChild(TextConverter.importToFlow(
"<b>something</b>: hello world",
TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT));
How can I accomplish this? I know in the old mx.controls.TextArea component, I could simply do:
this.textarea.htmlText += "<b>something</b>: hello world";
How can I do this with the new TLF/FTE API expressed in the spark.components.TextArea component?

I may have missed some threads. is there an actionscript that can do all of the above without having to resize an MC?
