ActionScript 2.0 :: Using External Jpgs - Call Up A Different Image Each Time
Dec 1, 2003
Is it possible to have external jpg files that can be imported if and when you want them? For example, say you have a spot set aside in your flash to display a 100x80px poster image, and you want the ability to call up a different image each time, can you have jpgs files in a directory, each set to 100x80px size, ready to be called up? I can do it with the images set up as little flash files, but I wanted to know if you do it with raw jpgs.

I'm trying to go through a for loop, create a movieclip for each database entry, add the image by url stored. The problem is the code I have only does the last image. I know it's because something is not incrementing and they all have the same name. Do I need to increment the name of my loader?[code]...

I wondering if with flash would be able to load in an external jpg file and then export the pixel data into a php application to rebuild the image?My concern is when an application loads an external resource it is just that, external and not local and therefore when I come to grab the pixel data will it grab the external resource in this case the image I've placed inside a movie clip?

I am building a portfolio disk with the awesome photo gallery AS from here. This will be run from a cd and I want to preload the images in the arrays to keep everything smoooooth. I am building on current machine. When I tested a disc image on an older machine the transitions were slooooow. I figure preloading would defeat this. Is there AS to accomplish this or is it something simple like hiding the images somewhere on the timeline and using a normal preloader?

I have 100 mc's loading external thumbnail jpgs via loadMovie(). I need a preloader of some sort to show the status of the thumbnails. The problem is that each of the mc's are loading JPG individually and I am not sure of how to combine their loading statuses into a preloader. The other option I had planned to use was to make one thumbnail larger in file size than the others so that it would load last and therefore I could use some onload function for this particular thumbnail, but I do not know what would be best to use in this case.

I have created a small image gallery for use in a CBT Program.What I am looking to do is, each image in the slide when clicked needs to go to a separate html page.I currently have it working as far as being able to execute a single External Call to go to a HTML Page, but it is working for the entire gallery not individual pictures.I am thinking of separating the way the MC are loading into the container, then tying External Calls Specific to the individual clips.
below is the current code.

I'm working on a basic flash gallery, when the user clicks a thumbnail, the large image above it will load (using loadMovie ("whatever.jpg")...that's all working fine, but I want to have the image center on a frame once it's fully loaded since I have some portrait and some landscape images. What I'm wondering is, is there a simple way to check if a jpg has been completely loaded, similar to an xml.onLoad = function()? I've tried the getBytesLoaded and getBytesTotal thing as well as an onEnterFrame that checks the width but these have both had issues, maybe there's just some really simple way to check?

I'm trying to create a slideshow that loads pics (jpg) from an external folder ("pics/") into dynamically created MCs.What I want is for the script to detect how many pics are in the folder (for future changes), create as many instances of the MC, and load the pics into each one. The MCs will need to take the W and H of the pics, and line up next to each other. This last part is not as important, I'm just wondering how to determine the number of pics in the folder. Do I need XML or will AS 1.0 or 2.0 do this?

I have an app that "loadmovies" a slideshow.swf in a sub-folder. THis sub-folder also contains an xml file and numbered jpgs.But when I run the main app, and click on the button to load the sub SWF files, the images do not appear. I assume it is a directory issue.
But if I run the slideshow.swf directly from it's folder, the images appear fine.I am using the xml_photogallery from this site for the main actionscript, is there something I can change here to point to the jpgs path?

I have designed a homepage that has 4 boxes on the right hand side that are of different size. I would like to have a movie loader that loads .jpgs randomly from a specified folder into each box. At the same time I don't want any repeats in any of the 4 boxes. Also is it possible to resize the images according to the box size without having to resize them outside of flash? I can have all the images in the external folder the same size, but then if I can just shrink them with whichever image falls into the box the random script assigns.

I am having trouble with classes and loading external files, specifically .jpgs.I have a simple class, that looks like this,
Code:
dynamic class test extends MovieClip {
var nn;
function test() {[code]....
I have it attached to the stage, it traces nn repetitively until i load the jpg, when i load the jpg into it, it loses all of it class properties it seems...it stops the onEnterFrame and the nn is no longer there.

I'm creating an interactive tour (pretty much a controllable slideshow) and I have multiple pictures now that, if in the correct order, will walk you around my school. You can turn left or right at doors (the picture that you're stopped at will wait for input from either the up, left, or right button and when clicked will take you to the corrisponding picture) and will eventually lead you out another entrance of the school and take you back to the main map.
My problem lies in the pictures... I have hundreds of pictures each one needing to be referanced. The only thing I have figured out is that I need to use arrays to organize these pictures and make them easier to access. I have considered using XML to organize the lists of pictures but I cannot spend hours typing out all the names of the pictures.access my pictures from outside my flash AS3 project.

I'm currently doing a script in which I have to preload some external resources (jpgs) at the begining of the animation.I dynamicaly create my MCs in which I do my loadmovies. Classical.Now the thing is, a few frames later, I need to reuse the images I have preloaded in other MCs.The thing is there seems to be a problem in using dynamicaly created MCs, here is why this is weird :
- I import a MC from the library : I can duplicate it, and I *see* it on the animation
- the MC that I have created, that I *see* on the animation, doesn't want to be duplicated : by that I mean that when I duplicate it, it can't be seen.
Now if there is a simple explanation for that, I have another question : I have an empty MC in which I want to *copy* one of the very MCs that I have dynamicaly created at the beginingn what is the best method ? attachMovie ? doesn't seem to work, but yet again, all this might be related.

Essentially, I've got a MC container that's created dynamically based off an XML file (basically for every <title></title> I've got, it makes a new "card"). Now within the context of each <title></title> grouping I've got <imgs></imgs> in which I specify the path to images that are related.All of that works perfectly, save for the external jpg files actually appearing on the stage. The MC I add them to does, but the external image doesn't.My problem is- I can't add the external images until they're completely loaded (or so it appears). The thumbnail BG I use is blank. So I know for a fact that the thumbnail BG isn't occluding the loaded thumbnails.

I am using in AS3 "External Interface ". When I call the JS function that is on the same page as swf everything works fine.
I added a link in the html page to an external JS file, when I move the JS function to the external JS file the website crushes.
I would prefer to have all my JS functions on an external file so I can use them in the future in other project and it also makes it easier for me to update the site.
how to call a JS function that is on an external file from AS3?

I have a function that calls another function once every 30 seconds. Each time it calls the function it updates the variables each time. My problem is that it only wants to call the function one time. All the variables are correct but it wont call it again.

newLevel = function(e_freq, s_freq, current_level){

I have a piece of code, and in that function i call to another function that has 3 parameters.now i've decided that i want that last function to be called after a couple of secs, instead of immedietly. I can't simply use a timer, and addEventlistener, because then i cant give parameters.

In the AS3 there is a remark, that a Class Constructor is just a method of the class, that is executed when an object of that class is created. So, since the constructor is just a method of a class, how can I call it directly from the other class methods?
