ActionScript 2.0 :: Incorporate In A Xml Based Slideshow(slideshow.zip) To Show Image Loading Process?
Feb 6, 2008
I 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 am working on an xml based slideshow. Random images loading (only ones and no repeated image) and fade in-out effect. That's working fine, but the problem is that when animation starts it does it on white screen and then fades in to the first image. How can I keep my slideshow working the same way but starting with the first image already on stage (without fade in)?

Does anyone have any info on creating a slideshow that loads external images? I only want to load about 10 and then for it to end on a final frame... just not sure how to do it.
Hello All, I have made a photo slideshow following exactly the following page:[URL]..It works very fine in my local computer. But, after I uploaded the files (SWF, XML, JPGs) to server it does not work well. Some photos are loaded, some not. There is no problem in path settings in XML. All images are in the same folder. Moreover, the photos are not same which loads sometimes, sometimes not. For example, I can see that photo no. 1, 3, 5, 9 are loaded and rest are not loaded. Again, if I visit the page/slideshow after some times, photo no. 1, 4, 6, 8 are loaded, rest not.
Is there any way to force the SWF to load all the images one by one and not to skip an image.
Even, if I visit the tutorial page [URL].._slideshow.htm I can see that the example SWF file given at the starting of the tutorial is doing the same behavior as that of mine. For example, right now I can see that the slideshow in this page is stopped at the image "Boston" (image no. 8/10) and it skipped the image "Dome" (image no. 6/10). Sometimes, it will stop at another image and may be, skip another image.
i have a question about text in a slideshow. i know how to make a basic photo slideshow with external images. but now what i want to do is add 4-5 paragraphs of text next to each photo (with possible scrolling). the text will be different on each photo.
I'm building a portfolio website for my wife and I. I've basically taken Kirupa's tutorial (XML photo gallery) and have tried to use it. I have several sections, or galleries, that I would like to show after clicking the "portfolio" button. But the problem right now is that only the first image from each gallery gets loaded into the main viewing area, even though the thumbnails themselves seem to work fine. Here is our site as it stands now.
The thing is, the site works locally on my computer, but once I upload it to the server, it doesn't work.I have removed some of the extraneous code from the original tutorial which I wasn't using, mainly so that it would be easier for me to read and work with. And I've checked and double checked to make sure I didn't delete something necessary. As I said, the site works locally on my computer.
I thought the problem had to do with relative or absolute paths, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I think what's happening is that the arrays for each of the galleries, for some reason beyond my understanding, are not being set-up correctly. The first image for each gallery shows up fine, but subsequent images do not.In my main movie, I placed an empty movieclip called "myHolder" on the stage. When a user clicks one of the sections "advertising," "design," etc. under the main "portfolio" button, one of the five gallery movieclips from the library is attached to the myHolder movieclip. Inside each of those library movieclips is the slideshow set-up with the code as I've altered it. Within the code is an xmlData.load("Some.xml") pointer that points to one of five different xml files that contain the appropriate linkage for each gallery.

I'm currently trying to beef up one of the websites I run, and make a better image slideshow for the gallery page. Currently... I have this page for my own website, with the lightbox effect installed correctly. The effect is very nice:When you click on an image, it loads it into focus on top of the page. This is also possible using flash.. using lightbox++. I hope one of you knows of this My question to you is... I want a page that loads the pictures via an xml file, and have the thumbs loaded, and each of those thumbs setup to load the full size version when you click on it.
I'd like to create a banner for my website using a slidshow but I'd like for the photo's that are displayed to be daylight images during the daytime and nightime images during the evening hours from the viewers perspective. These images will, of course, be outdoor pictures, but I cannot seem to figure out how to select the picture elements to display based on the users time shown on their computer.
I am making a website in flash for my business that consists of several elements. For example I have one menu on top with the usual "contact", "resume", "about" and so on, and so far this is not the problem as I only need some text to show up when the button is clicked. But on the left i have another menu with different sections called "animations", "layouts", "illustrations" and so on, and the point is that each link is supposed to start a slideshow with my artwork depending on the category. How to make the buttons show content, and I even created a simple slideshow (with prev and next buttons).
I used the following code for the slideshow: stop(); right.onRelease = function() { if (_root._currentframe == 5) { gotoAndStop(1); [Code] .....
Now the only thing left to do is to actually make the different buttons show the slideshows. I have tried to embed the swf of the slideshow in the frame of my content layer that is dedicated to the layout button. I've had to try a few things. at first the slideshow didn't do what I previously programmed it to: instead of me having to click next or prev, it just flipped through all the images continuously. That I fixed, but now the only thing that still doesn't work are the buttons. they seem active when I test the movie, but they don't take me anywhere- they're just stuck on the first image.
I have downloaded an excellent slide show tutorial from Slideshow.as[URL] and being new to As3 I very basically attached and removed the downloaded slide show on and off the stage with a simple button which fired the following code: addChild(); to make the slides appear and a removeChild(); to remove them. This worked fine until I quickly realised that each time the slide show was re added it had doubled in speed until after a few re loads it was wizzing through
I attempting to make a slideshow like the one on this page: [URL] But i was wondering if it is possible to change the code so that if you click on the main image, another image could come up next to it? (I'm making a portfolio site, and i want people to click on one of the main images to then see a detail image next to it).
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. What I really want is for the user to click on a different random thumbnail and have the current image slide out as the new image slides in. My code so far:
Ive just completed the Kirupa XML Slideshow today and have it all working well. But i cant figure out how to fade out the previous image as the next image fades in.
I am loading the XML slideshow which is done in as2 (the tutorial Leed did) into AS3 swf. The swf loads fine and it even loads the first image from the xml but the left and right buttons do not work.
I have been trying to use the XML image slideshow posted here and everything works but one thing. The images to load which have the same px dimensions as the mask for the container will keep scaling up for a reason I can�t find in the code. I have been trying to fix this all day without any luck and I am about to go mad here. I am using FCS3 but saving a F8 doc with AS2. Could anyone take a look to the file and tell me what the problem could be?
okay, I know most slideshows have more than one image, but when the slideshow only has one, it blinks on and off. The problem is I am using this in a cms tool that pulls the files dynamically so i will sometimes have more than one,but other times, only one.
i am using a slideshow template that I purchased and I wanted to get the images to load randomly, I contacted the author but he wants me to pay him extra for this and I have no money left for this project.basically, I'm looking to add a line to this as2 file that would make the images load randomly without repeating and then start over when the cycle completes. I tried putting in an array but it caused all kinds of errors.
I'm writing a flash site for my wive's photography site.translation.I'm not getting paid. I wrote a slideshow that works great except that the images load all at once. It seems to me they should load one at a time, but they don't and I don't know why. It really slows down the loading of the page. [code]...
I have a website with a portfolio showcase. In this showcase I am trying to use xml to load external.swf's that are also loaded through xml...
I have two swf's. The 'showcase.swf' is the website, and the 'gallery.swf' is one movie which is a slideshow using xml to load external images. I want to load the external 'gallery.swf' into the 'main.swf'. The "gallery.swf" and its xml file is in a folder of its own, and every time I try to load "gallery.swf" from "showcase.swf" flash is search for the xml in the "showcase" folder and not search for it in "gallery" folder.
People have recommend to use "_lockroot = true", but its not working for me.
I'm building a slideshow using only ActionScript, but the computer running it will only have access to the files when the show is first started. So I need to somehow load all the images initially, and call on them from within the file itself from then on.
I have made a random image loader for a slideshow, but the preloader does not work for it (I grabed the preloader from a previous website I made) Is there a way to preload the images or the slideshow and/or have the next image pre-load while the current image is playing. I have attached a zip file of the random image loader
I am trying to create a "slideshow" in flash CS4 and I have set it to fade out one image is it fades in another (using alpha) for about 10 - 15 images.However, I want to add a "border" to my slideshow, that stays there throughout the entire process without it fading in and out along with the pictures.
