I have been trying to get this site to work with rollovers and am frazzled. I finally was able to figure out how to make rollovers in flash, however, they roll to the right, which is where my movie loads into.URL...Is there a different code I should/can use to make it so that the links/rollovers appear on top of the movie that I'm loading in??

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load a bunch of image files for processing (to make a sprite sheet to be exact). Thusly, I need to make sure those files are loaded in order for processing (otherwise the animations become all wonky).

I'm currently doing up my flash gallery and there something bugging me.
I'm using XML to load my images dynamically and would like the images to appear in a horizontal manner.
image1 - image2 - image3 - image4 etc.
however, everytime i run the swf, the order of the images are randomized
Code:
var portraiture_images:XMLList;
var portraiture_total:Number;
var container_portraiture:MovieClip;
[Code].....
as my images are of different width, I made use of the imageWidth variable to keep track of where the X co-ordinate should be for the next image.
I am creating an order form for my flash site. I have never done this before in flash but I have in visual basic. I have a few questions:
1. Is assigning variable names to checkboxes and radio buttons the same as in visual basic? I mean i know that you probably assign them in the properties. ex..say i name a radio button 'radio1', to run a check in my actionscript whether radio1 was checked or not would it be something like if(radio1){}
2. After the person fills out the form I would like to have the results of the order sent to a pre-specified email adress in a certain format. What would be a good way to do this?
I'm a Flash novice and I can't seem to get this menu I'm working on to function just right.

The problem I'm having is when you mouse out from one diamond to another, the menu doesn't always go back to normal. I guess it's because of the way my movie clips are positioned... If one clip on top of the other, the rollOut function doesn't work on the bottom element. If that makes sense. Probably best to just download my Flash file to see how it's set up:

how to set this menu up so it always fades back to normal when a diamond has been moused out? I've tried setting up rollOut functions on different buttons and can't get it to work...
Im loading in tumbnails from an XML. Now they appear in a random order, i want them to be in the order they are in the XML file.

In AC2, I am trying to load .swf files in to a movie.
I know how to load them, and I can load them at random. But what I want to know is, if I have say 500 movies, named movie_0.swf movie_1.swf movie_2.swf etc...
is there a way I can load them ten at a time, in order of highest number to lowest number. In a specific location.
In other words, I want to be able to have many external swf movies, about 400px wide by 100px tall, and load 10 at a time in to a 800px wide by 1200px tall movie, 10 movies at a time, in order of highest to lowest movie name number. Each in a specific place, with a next and precious button to show the next 10 or last 10.
Im basically working on my first site, and want to use something like this so I can show my latest articles first when someone clicks on the articles section of the website.

PHP Code:
var loaderone:Loader = new Loader();
loaderone.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadedone);
loaderone.load(new URLRequest(prefix + totalfiles-- + ".swf"));
function loadedone(one:Event):void
[Code].....
I noticed something after executing my slideshow. The images aren't showing in the order they are in the XML (and that MUST be in order).[code]The problem resides in the fact that Event.COMPLETE when loading images add probably images in the order they are LOADED and not LOADING. Is there a method which will make them add in the order they are called?

I have one main stage in Flash 8 where I am loading different swf's into a main movie clip. And since some of swf's are bigger then others they are loading randomly. I would like to know is there a script that can put some of the swf's on hold and load them as the scipt tells in which order?
In my scenario i would like to place them to load in some order in my main movie clip.
I am relativley now to flash, but I have basic scills to do some basic stuff.
I try to load 4 pictures. Loading is fine but the order is reverse.This is the code:
function showThumbnail(id:String, xmllist:XMLList):void{
var pics:XMLList = xmllist.(@name == id).*;
for each(var i:XML in pics.pic){
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
[code]....
The "I" is the picture index. I think the order should be 1.png 2.png 3.png 4.png just like the order of the xml ~~This is the output:
I:1 mc.x:11 mc.y:27 file:///D|/works/Flash/thumbnails/4.png I:2 mc.x:11 mc.y:210 file:///D|/works/Flash/thumbnails/3.png I:3 mc.x:11 mc.y:393 file:///D|/works/Flash/thumbnails/2.png I:4 mc.x:11 mc.y:576 file:///D|/works/Flash/thumbnails/1.png
I have this script that is working fine.I have some some buttons which when clicked load a .txt file aswell as load an image into a picHolder.However i want it so when the page loads the home.txt is already loaded (at present i have to click the button)
ActionScript Code:
loadListener.onLoadInit = function(){
sizeListener.onResize();[code]..........
How do I stop the visible function coming before the one above it? Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
root.info2();
infomc.visible = false;
info2 is a function for a button which contains other functions which need to be performed before the button(infomc) becomes invisible. At the moment, it becomes invisible first before any of the functions on info2 begin.
I'm loading some images within a gallery but I have a trouble.. They appear backwards.. the last one on the xml is the first one shown.. I guess the problem is caused by onLoadInit.. which resizes each images and then place it on stage.. if i make a trace of "i" inside onLoadInit, always give me the last number of "i" (eg. "28"... 28 times)

I dont know if i have seen this somewhere or i imagined it but if you have a gallery of some sort and lets say your thumbnails are sequenced in one line from left side of the screen to right.
At the beginning, when you are loading the page first time, and all thumbs have to load one by one, with preloader or not -> is it possible to control thumb loading order, so that they load from left to right, and not appearing by some random sequence...
I dont know if i have described it well, but maybe somebody understood me
I want to play 4 external swf video files so that the first video (intro) plays only once and the rest 3 play in a loop after the first one. So this is the code i'm using in the swf loader file:

I'm building a an multimage gallery. Almost everything is working well but a malignant fate that is making the images load in a shuffled random order. Everytime that I click each gallery button it gives a new sequence. If I was a poet I would say that it has no order just like the unpredictable chaos of a party in a drunk anarchist's whorehouse. (and if I was a poet I would not write what I wrote. Whatever!) The array that store the images URLs is showing a proper order. So it makes me think that the problem is on the onClickButton function, but I'm not sure.

I have a movie on stage that acts as a button using the code. person_mc.buttonMode = true;
I load an image onto the stage from my library using addChild(holiday);
What happens is that the person_mc button I have on stage will not function anymore, because I am presuming it is underneath the holiday pic when I loaded it using addChild.
How do I load the holiday pic, so that it is underneath the person_mc?
I know I could do what I did with holiday using addChild for the person_mc, but I do not want to do it that way.
It's been 2 days and counting since I started to debug my code to make it work and It's eating up all my time and I don't think I'll hit my deadline If I don't start asking.
The gallery is working well, It can load the thumbnails smoothly without returning any error. However, the thumbnails doesn't load as expected, I think because the smallest file size gets to load first. So if thumbnail[3] is the smallest, it'll attach itself to thumbnail_container[0] which it should always be thumbnail[0] to thumbnail_container[0] and so on.

Currently I am trying to load 5 different swfs in order. Everytime a button is selected I want to move to the next swf. And once I reach 5 the next image should be 1 (again - loop). I started with a code like this on frame 1 in "scene 1":
Code:
gotoAndPlay(50);
Stage.align = "T";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.j = 1;
where "_root.j = 1" ----- "1" is the first swf loaded. But it was stuck on 1.
My newbie skills figured this out so to avoid zero, but it's random. And things repeat too closely.
Code:
gotoAndPlay(50);
Stage.align = "T";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.j = random(4)+1;
My Question: What can "_root.j" equal so that 1,2,3,4,5 cycles? I have to work within these parameters cause this template is deep.
We are trying to build a site with these features:
Our site will be built in Actionscript 3.
1. A navigation menu that, when a button is clicked, will scroll the site quickly to a specific Y position using swfaddress.
2. The entire site is controlled by a flash scroll bar, which will be scrolling a single movieclip. The movieclip will load multiple swfs one by one that correspond to the navigation, in order, making the site appear to be very tall.
**What we are in need of is understanding how to load multiple swf files into a movie clip, in a specific order, and having them scroll between one another through the navigation.
A great reference to this is the SWFC Shanghai site. If you google it and click on a link, you'll see this effect.
Current error: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method load.

Is it possible without looping to control which of 12 or so external swfs loads first when they all have to load on the same frame of the main movie? For example, we have a main movie which creates classes where the class is itself in an external movie. When we load locally, the movies all load fast enough that the classes are created correctly, however when we move to loading from the server some of the class movies are not loaded into their levels before the main movie tries to create the class with of course the result being the class is not generated and the movies do not function correctly.
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a portfolio site that I'm pretty much done with, but I'm having trouble with the loading order of the thumbnails on the site. The work in the portfolio is grouped into clients, and within each client, there are thumbnails that display the selected work. This will probably make more sense if you can see what I'm talking about: [URL]. (Only the first two clients are enabled at the moment). Specifically, when the page is first loaded (from a web server) the thumbnails show up in the wrong order. When the page is refreshed, the thumbnails are displayed in the correct order.
The thumbnails always display in the correct order when being viewed locally, or in the Flash Test Movie environment. I'm pulling in the data from an xml file into an array, and iterating through the elements of the array with a for...next loop, I'm loading the thumbnail images with a MovieClipLoader instance. Using the onLoadInit event, I then set the horizontal position of each thumbnail clip. As much as I'm looking for reasons why the order could be switching. I suspect it has to do with which thumbnail image finishes loading first - in which case, how to force the images to load in the correct order. Maybe I should use if...then and load the next thumbnail only when onLoadComplete fires?
i have been able to customize this tutorial to meet my needs but i have one remailing issue. The thumbnails are loading in reverse order from they way they are listed in the XML file or random order. Is there a way to force them to load in the order they are listed in the XML file?
