ActionScript 2.0 :: Merge The Photos On The Slideshow?
Aug 24, 2005
I keep battling the slideshow, and now I have some other doubts. I tried to find the answer to this on other threads on this forum, but couldnïż½t find anything. So, here it goes:I now have a photo slideshow where one photo fades out, and the next one follows, fading in.Between the fade out and fade in, there is a short interval of white, the background of the flash animation. I have to replace this white interval, with the fadeout of the previous image, so that the first and the next image sort of merge. How can I do this?lso, on the very last image of the presentation, there is a jump back to the first image, without the fadeout. How can the loop be made so that the last image fades out too, and not simply disappear?Here is the code Im using right now:
I am building a simple photo slideshow and I need to create a way for the client to remove and add photos to it (w/o opening and editing the .fla). Can this be done with XML? Where I use a small line of script to call a series of photos according to the numbers appended to the photo file names.
The photographer at this site [URL] wants me to modify the slideshow on the home page. He wants to replace some of the old photos with new ones. Can I do this with Adobe Flash CS3? If so, please point me to tutorials that will get me up to speed. Or maybe it's too difficult for a Flash newbie?

I am very new to flash CS4. I am preparing to develop a simple photo slideshow, set to music (3 minute song), with three buttons containing pull down menus which will link to pdf files. This is a project I have taken on to develop an informational CD for the High School I work at.
Here is my question: When building a photo slidshow with 35-40 photos what is the best practice? Is it to place them all on one layer, or each on its own layer? Also I did see the set interval method from tutvid placing the photos in frames next to each other.
I used the script below for a slideshow in Macromedia Flash MX2004. The images are in the folder images.xml (and believe me, I checked the names many times). But now the problem: when I load this slideshow, it shows only 3 photos, whereas there are 10 in my folder which I need to show. After the 4th photo I get only black.... it doesn't continue.
Here is the script: // set random # variables - each must be 0 for first 'while' loop below var randomNum = 0; var randomNumLast = 0; // parent container var container_mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("container",0); [Code] .....

I cannot figure out what the problem is! Anyone who is more clever out there?

I am designing a slideshow comprised of photos, video and some animations. I decided to use Flash because I thought it would offer me more flexibility than other options and because I have some experience coding in ActionScript 2.0 (though oddly very little experience designing swf's).
Here's the thing. In frame 1 I want a video to play. I can make that happen using this code, copied straight from the help:
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.
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 have a slideshow and photogallery that I want to put on a CD and give out at tradeshows. The user can manually view the photos in each section or "play all". Right now all of the photos and text are listed in an XML file on a server. I don't want the info to be pulled from my server when someone plays the CD. Does the XML in the actionscript have to be a direct path [URL]? or can I store the XML files on my cd have have the info pulled from there?
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 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 tring to merge two nice effects file into one .fla file.I've tried in several ways but the result was very poor.Is there someone able to do it ?My goal is to have the changing aurora as background and have the possibility to see the mouse effects over.
Basically i have 2 flv movie clips. i want to put them both together (i can do)
But what i want is for the 1st one to pause at the end and the 2nd one to start coming in but the music first for a few seconds then it fade into the 2nd ones visuals.
Is there any way to merge cells (vertically and/or horizontally) in a datagrid? At least, for example, is there a way to show that certain datagridcolumns belong to one group. For example, I'll take three columns: column1, column2, column3. All these three should be grouped to the Category cell with a rowspan of 3 -- a "super header" if you will.
I am looking for a solution to this issue but I have not yet found anything conclusive. I would love to get some input. What I need to do is basically to take two or more individual PDF-files and merge them into one. Nothing fancy just sticking one after the other and ending up with one file.
I have found AlivePDF and purePDF but those libs both seem to be focused towards generating PDF's from scratch.
I have an application w/ 2 side-by-side pages of text. I have the VDivided box set up so the user can drag it to make one of the documents bigger or smaller.Is there a way to get the look of a VDivided box & the functionality of an Accordian, so that when the user clicks the VDivided box (or double clicks, I haven't decided) one of the documents will be hidden? (For instance, double clicking on the right-most side of the divider will hide the left document, and vice-versa)
In addition, if the user wanted to drag the divider, then they can do that as well. I don't have much, but here it is so far:
I am having 2 separate container and each container has one separate movie clip.If i select those two container using mouse drag then the two container should convert as single one.
What is the best way to merge two alpha channels? What I want to do is, given channel values, use the value which is greater.
I tried using .merge(), but it appears to only blend channels with a linear value between current and destination value.
I looked into .draw(), which would work well using a blendmode like LIGHTEN, but it doesn't allow drawing per channel so I can't target the alpha channel only. The ALPHA blendmode didn't seem to do anything when used with .draw(), and ERASE gives an unwanted hard edge.
I also looked into .copyChannel(), but it doesn't allow any blending logic, merely copying a rectangular region from one BitmapData to another.
I have an ARRAY which contains single symbols and DICTIONARY in where every symbol in array is attached to unique string, what I want to do - is to merge ARRAY and DICTIONARY together, and as a result receive RESULT_ARRAY where order of elements is equal to ARRAY but elements are replaced according to a DICTIONARY.
Code: //for example //this is what we have - var originalA:Array = new Array (); originalA[0]="y";
I'm working to create an interactive snow globe in AS3. The user would have a choice of dropping several items into the globe - a house, a candy cane, a fir tree, etc. - and, when done, hit a shake button. The globe and items would shake together, then the snow would appear.I've got the drag and drop and snow functionality (using Flint particles). However, I'm not sure how to get the globe and the items to move together once the user hits play.[code]I'm at a loss as to how to get them both to work together. A DisplayObject, perhaps?
So I wanna merge a string and a variable to get another variable. I tried this syntax, but I get "undefined" as output. What am I doing wrong? Code: var temp_1 = "testing"; var temp_2 = 1; trace(_root["temp_" + temp_2]);
