Professional :: Poor JPEG Quality When Loaded Externally In Flash Via .xml

Jul 26, 2011

I have a movie that loads images from an external source based on paths contained within an .xml. As far as I can see, there is no restriction to the size of the loaded image, which are are JPEGs, hence flash will not have these images resized. The images look fine when loaded in Photoshop or viewed separately, but the quality is just awful when loaded within the movie.
 
I've tried the usual hints like increasing JPEG quality in Publish Settings, but understand that since these images are not imporated into Flash CS5 before compiling, but are instead loaded when the .swf is run, these settings would not have any effect.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Resizing Externally Loaded Swf/xml/jpeg

Jan 24, 2009

I was wondering, after looking into loading external images via xml- how you would control the size of those images on resize and on first loading.

Do you define the size of the container mc?

Can you apply the same or similar onresize code as you would when applying it too images on the stage?

Flash - Load Images Dynamically From Library Not Externally?

Sep 7, 2010

Trying to load images dynamically from library NOT externally since i want these images to be loaded when the site is launched. Basically i have several buttons, each button returns an event that throws a specific image name to grab. Here is the function;

function sendDisplayData(e:MouseEvent){
display_mc.displayName.text = e.currentTarget.parent.menuItemName.text; //name of image eg. "myImageName" in the library;
//create the image object

[code]....

So how can i make this function dynamic by using a String and then grabbing the image related to that string from the library.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make The Site Load Faster Is To Load In Swf's Externally

Mar 16, 2011

I'm pretty new/bad at actionscript (3) for web. I have a site up for a client/friend [URL], but it takes FOREVER to load. I'm under the impression that a good way to make the site load faster is to load in swf's externally. Right now, the site, in its entirety, is one big movieclip. I have large images (movieclips) for background images. If you look at the site and are kind enough to wait for it to load (aprox. 45 seconds or so) you will notice how the background image changes when you click to go to each section.

I am trying to find a way to load in the background as external .swf's to cut down on the initial load time. I'm also open to any other ideas. Below is the as3 code for my buttons/how they direct the site. I'm hoping to use a similar/generic style to load the background images. I'm hoping to load the movieclips underneath the rest of the site, and use the same naming scheme (e.g. homeBTN.swf) to keep it organized.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Making A Slideshow - Doesn't Work If I Test It In A Browser

Aug 2, 2009

I'm working on a slideshow using a class that I wrote that builds the slideshow and an XML file that points to the images. I plan on improving it later but for now I just want it to cycle through a set of images, resize them if they're too big or small, and show a loading bar while the image is loading. It works fine if I test it in the Flash IDE or standalone Flash Player, but if I drag the SWF into Firefox or Safari, the loading bar refuses to show up. I also tried publishing to an HTML file and that didn't work either. I figured there could only be two different reasons why it wasn't showing up - either it wasn't being added to the stage, it wasn't being made visible after it's initially set to invisible. I decided to comment out the part of the code that make it invisible to begin with the loading bar showed up, but it wasn't showing how much of the image had been loaded when it changed to a new picture. Here's my code:

[Code]...

For some reason the pictureLoading function isn't being called when I test it in any browser. I've seen the loading bar randomly pop up a few in times in Safari 4 but then I try closing the window and testing it again and I get nothing. Can anyone help me figure this out? About:plugins in Firefox says I have Flash Player 10.0.22 installed, and I'm using Flash CS3 in OS X.

ActionScript 3.0 :: CS4 Load Each Jpeg In Array Into New Loader

Apr 8, 2009

I'm new to AS3-What I need to do is load each jpeg in an array into a new Loader, then find the image's dimensions before attempting to load the next one. A Loader makes its info available through the LoaderInfo class. Loader has a property, contentLoaderInfo, that itself is an instance of LoaderInfo. When information about the Loader's requested file become available, it broadcasts Event.INIT. The AS3 language reference gives the following example for handling an Event.INIT event broadcast by a flash.display.Loader's contentLoaderInfo property, which itself is an instance of flash.display.LoaderInfo:[code]The AS3 reference says that neither Loader nor LoaderInfo accept any parameters in their constructor.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Check On External Jpeg?

Sep 10, 2009

I�m making an image gallery. I want to load the large jpeg images externally. I wanted thumbnails at the bottom to fade up as the images load up, then when they are ready to be displayed, they are actually fully loaded and ready to be displayed and don�t take any more than a couple of frames to become visable, but this is eluding me.

I'm currently using Flash 10.0, and the mx.controls.loader from the flash components to load the images into, which works fine other than getting to it before the images are loaded. An Actionscript 2.0 that creates a loop over a few frames until the external image is loaded then moves on should enable me to get it done, but no luck so far.

I thought this would work:

if (this.getBytesLoaded()>=this.getBytesTotal()) {
gotoAndPlay("the label name on the next frame");
} else {
gotoAndPlay("the label name on the previous frame");
}

but it continues on the timeline even when the external image is not fully loaded yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Load 10 Jpeg Thumbnails?

Feb 10, 2009

Suppose I want to dyanamically load 10 jpeg thumbnails. I have given them files names "image0.jpg", "image1.jpg", "image2.jpg", image3.jpg" and so on.Now, I might write out the code to do it ten times, like this:

var image0:loader = new Loader ();
image0.load(new URLRequest ("images/image0.jpg);
var image1:loader = new Loader ();
image1.load(new URLRequest ("images/image1.jpg");

But it would be much better if I could write out it out in a loop, and have the actionScript assign names to the variables. I don't know actionscript so well, but I feel I want to have something like this:

var [name+i] :loader = new Loader();
[name+i].load(new URLRequest ("images/"+[name+i]+".jpg");

Now I've just made that code up, but there is some logic in it, which I hope makes my question clearer.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Better Way To Present A Lot Of Information In Flash?

Jul 9, 2008

I have a file full of text; if this were html, I'd just make an iframe and in the frame, I'd have the text page with "back to top" links throughout. But since this is flash, I'm loading an external text file, and I'd like some "back to the top" links within it. I know how to do a "back to the top" in html, but it doesn't seem to work in a loaded text file in flash. Or is there a better way to present a lot of information in flash?
