I'm having trouble figuring out how to get this image slideshow to have separate links for each picture. I've researched online and I can't seem to make sense of what I've found in relation to the code I have.
ActionScript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

I'm new to action script coding and i had found a tutorial to create a flash slideshow which worked great, but now i'm trying to add links to each slide[code]...
View 1 Repliesi created a flash slideshow with pictures of events and link each picture with its own event (ie. each pictures has its own links to the website). I created the fade in and fade out effect using the class motion tween. With the link, I created a layer with a button that has alpha= 0 (so the user don't see it) and then I used code snippet to make another layer with the action script "click to go to url."
When the slideshow goes to the last picture I made it fade out and the first picture of the slideshow would show up and then the slideshow would replay itself (by default?). My goal is to make a continuous slideshow.
When I tested the swf file, the first time it runs, everything is right. The urls and the pictures are in correct order. However when the slideshow replays itself automatically, I notice that the links are incorrect. In the first play, when I click the picture of the event it would open the url of that event.However when the sldieshow replays, clicking the pictures would only open the url of the first event picture. When I click on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.pictures the browser opens only the link of the first picture of the slideshow.
Ok the fourth page of the website is a portfolio page with 16 thumbnails (4 across 4 down) which opens a larger pic on the same page to the right.
I can't figure out what to change. The first and third thumb down seem to be linked and open the same image. Same with two and two down from that and so on. I want to separate them so each open their own image. If I edit it in PS both thumbs change...
I click several times and well thumb one and the third one down is:
onClipEvent (load) {
i = 1;
}

I have kind of a follow up question what would the procedure be if I had like a slide show and each slide when you clicked on it there would be multiple links this is the code I have so far: My slideshow instance names are pic_000_mc to pic_004_mc
[Code]....
I know there is a better and more efficient way to do this then to have all five different functions and listeners.
I want to create an animated introduction movie which will then go to my main site. Is it better to create two separate movies (that links) or one big movie?
View 3 RepliesI'm making a picture-slideshow with xml and Flash AS2. The thing is, i really want a play and pause button in it, and iv tried to do that with setInterval.[code]Now, the weird thing is, the trace does work, and gives me the good output: 10, 11, 12, 13 etc. etc. but the external images dont go further... (i do have the first image, but it doesnt go to the next images)When i remove the var Interval, so that it doesnt repeat, it does work I also attached the .fla file.
View 7 RepliesI have created a pie preloader(preloader.zip) which is working fine. Same preloader I am trying to incorporate in a xml based slideshow(slideshow.zip) to show image loading process but some how I got stuck. I am new to flash. Suggestions are welcome.
1. How to solve the problem of preloader2. Is it possible to integrate everything in a movie clip (including AS). I mean no AS on main time line but inside the movie clip. It would be much easier then to to create multiple slideshows by duplicating mc and changing the xml file.
I'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've migrated from AS1 to AS3, and boy, a lot has changed... Anyhow, to learn and understand AS3, I'm modifying a slideshow I found through thetechlabs. I want it to play SWF as well as JPG. These files are passed through an XML file. I added an element called <delaytime> to the XML file that replaces the standard time a photo is shown in the slideshow.
I modified the onSlideFadeIn() function as follows:
function onSlideFadeIn():void { slideTimer.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, nextSlide); slideTimer = new Timer(xmlSlideshow..file[intCurrentSlide].@time); slideTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, nextSlide); if(bolPlaying && !slideTimer.running) slideTimer.start();}
However, when I run it, I get this error message:
## [Tweener] Error: [object Sprite] raised an error while executing the 'onComplete'handler. TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.at slideshow_fla::MainTimeline/onSlideFadeIn()at Function/http://adobe.com/AS3/2006/builtin::apply()at caurina.transitions::Tweener$/::updateTweenByIndex()at caurina.transitions::Tweener$/::updateTweens()at caurina.transitions::Tweener$/onEnterFrame()
It stops at the first picture of my slideshow. When I push the 'next' button it displays the next pic, but I get the same error message again.When I comment out this line:
slideTimer = new Timer(xmlSlideshow..file[intCurrentSlide].@time);
the slideshow runs OK, but without the delaytime specified in the XML file.

this fullscreen slideshow with random pictures which will be the background of a client's web-site. I have everything working, the preloader, the imaging loading and transitions.There's one thing however that's happening and I don't know how to fix it. What's happening - naturally - is that the previous image is still there, in the background, and I would like that to be removed, I would like to have the previous loader, or just the holder movieclip to get off stage, but I really don't know how to add that to my code.What I was thinking was something in the lines of a for loop. Something like creating the picture's holder inside that for loop so each will be like, picHolder1, picHolder2, picHolder3...and so on. And with that, on completion of the preloader I would remove something like "picHolder -

I've made my slideshow and 'next' and 'previous' buttons to navigate through them. But as I have 89 images I want to be able to jump to a specific number. I.e. In a box I type '50' and that will jump to image number 50 and saves me having to click 50 times.I haven't seen this be done on any tutorials and not sure on how to go about it. The images are in a seperate folder and an XML files is used to call them in. So is it just a question of assigning a value to each entry and calling that when the relevant number has been clicked?
View 5 RepliesI am new to flash and I created a gallery that loads the pictures from an xml file. I was wondering how I could create the links to each picture dynamically from the xml sheet in a seperate movieClip named "menu_mc".
View 5 RepliesI am wondering how to make a movie clip that contains automatic vertical scrolling dynamic text(from an external .txt file) I dont want to press buttons to scroll text, I need it to be constantly scrolling, then loop once the text has been read from the external txt file.
I also require each line of the dynamic text to be clickable links that will take each line of text to a specific link. Ive uploaded a zip file containing fla and swf i found which shows vertical scrolling text. However if i move any of the graphics and text field clips around the stage the text cannot be seen anymore. why is this? can you put all of the items on the main stage in a movie clip so i can resize and move the scroller around the stage?? I tried this but again the text disapeared when i exported the movie? Is this due to the x + y co ordinates in the scripting?
How can you adjust the size of this scroller without this happening? Can the scrolling text be taken from an external file and each line of text be a seperate hyperlink? Follow this link (copy and paste it into your browser window, DONT click on it): [URL]..
Forgetting about my last post: This code currently makes it so each picture will fade from white. What I'm trying to do is make the slideshow so that each picture transitions into each other, instead of from white.
p = 0;this.onEnterFrame = function() { filesize = picture.getBytesTotal(); loaded = picture.getBytesLoaded(); if (picture._alpha<100) { picture._alpha += 10; }};[code].....
I am wondering if anybody can tell me how to create a picture PUSH. I have three images that I wish to work with. By pushing I mean having an image come in from the left (or right) and place itself on top of the other (or pushing the other out of view). Like a slide show of three images scrolling along but one stops for a brief period before the other image comes into view.

View 1 RepliesI managed to get the swf to load fine on this page (www.diamondraindesign.com) until I added a full-screen invisible button that goes over the slides. It uses the same counter to sync with them so that whenever someone clicks on it they go to the proper page. Unfortunately, now only the link works to the first page item, and sometimes I can't even see the slides 'loading' text, just a white background. If I take the link button out, the slides are fine. Why is the link interferring, and how do I get it to sync and not stop the slides?

How would someone go about getting the actionscript to look for another field in the xml file that had a Url link to a webpage for each image that would be activated by clicking on that particular image.
I want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:

I'm fairly new to ActionScript 3.0 so forgive me if this question is easy, but I'm having issues with my portfolio slideshow. I have a few thumbnails and when you click on one the image slides in from the right. That part is fine.

I'm now writing a simple socket application for my own learning purposes. It will be a really simple BlackJack application.I was thinking for ways to manage 52 different cards in my app. I could make those 52 cards, as 52 images and then, maybe load them into movieclips at runtime. Or, I could take one big image with all of the cards on it, and create a masked movieclip, and then, shift and slide the image's position, so that the correct graphic of the card shows.y question is: which way is faster? Will flash be better with handling 52 small images, lets say 20x40 (in reality, i will only load like 6 of them in the display list, since black jack almost never deals with huge amount of cards). Or would it be faster, if I had a big image with all the cards (~160x160 maybe) and just reused that with different masking, calculated on runtime?

I'm building a gallery on a website with lots of different size images. I've got all my buttons set out in one swf and placed on the page and I want to put a seperate swf on the page to display the images. The only problem is I can't work out the script to put on the button to open the image in the 2nd swf.
