I am having an issue with my photo gallery thumbs not showing up.When you first land on the page the thumnails do not appear with the flash photo gallery. However, if you refresh the page, they show up.
XML loading code frame 1
Code:
photo_filename = new Array();
photo_thumbnail = new Array();
photo_description = new Array();

I was working with the XML Photo Gallery Thumbnail Tutorial on this site: http:[url]....
And I modified it for my own usage, making it a vertical gallery instead, and had no problems until I came upon the thumbnail images. When I replaced the original thumbs with my new thumbs (that I sized based on width, as it is a vertical gallery) it got all screwed up. The images are of all different shapes. So when it loads up, some of them had huge gaps in between them, and others were even overlapping. So I fixed it by making the heights of all the images the same, resulting in a working thumb gallery, but now half my thumbs are cropped off by the mask. I'm looking for a way to fix it where I still have the same spacing between the images, and that they are all the same width, but can vary in their height. Here's the section of the code I am using:
function thumbNailScroller() {
// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);[code]....
I'm also trouble figuring something out from the same tutorial, that I want to change. The tutorial uses these "Next" and "Previous" buttons. On the far right hand side, the half-circle buttons are what I assigned this to, but I don't really want them to have that function. I would rather have them function just like how the mouse functions when it rolls over the thumb gallery, except they scroll the thumbs up and down when clicked.
What I want to do is to make a gallery based on the tutorial gallery here (thumbs), but I want the user to be able to choose different galleries from within the movie. I figured that I could make a loop to cycle through the galleries, then nest another loop inside it to cycle through the pics, captions and thumbs. While I wrote, I constantly tested the output with trace commands, but when I tried nesting the loop I lost all output.. I'm pretty new to both Flash and Actionscript, so if theres an obvious solution I havent been able to see it.. This is my temp XML file:

I've downloaded and slightly modified the Photo Gallery with Thumbnails .fla file. It works fine, except when you mouse over the right side, it keeps scrolling until all of the thumbnails are off the screen. Going to the left, it works fine, stopping when you reach the first thumbnail. On the original, it works as it should.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a site with a photogallery that has sliding thumbs in the bottom corner ("slidingOut_mc"). I've got them sliding from right to left with a simple tween that is infinite. The problem is that I have a left arrow and right arrow that I want to slide the thumbs in reverse (left arrow i.e. "back_btn") or at double speed (right arrow i.e. "forward_btn") on a roll over of the button. I used the ENTER_FRAME thing to get the mc to reverse with prevFrame when rolling over the "back_btn" but I can't get it to stop when I roll out.
This is what I have so far...
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, backF);
function backF(event:MouseEvent):void{
slidingOut_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, everyFrame);
function everyFrame(event:Event):void{
slidingOut_mc.prevFrame();
[Code] .....
It tells me the "everyFrame" is an undefined property. I think and hope the problem should be obvious to those who know more than me. Do I need some sort of import at the very start of it all?

I've built an xml gallery with thumbnails only, layed out in a grid, and am trying to link each thumb to a centered popup. I'm getting a centered popup when clicking the image, but instead of the page loading inside, I'm getting an error message: Not Found. The requested URL /tas-dp_new/undefined was not found on this server.Here is my actionscript:
Code:
cliparray = [];
columns = 6;[code].....
i cannot seem to find any tutorial around this... when i click the next button, a new photo begins preloading (showing a loadbar or similar) *WHILE* the current photo is still in sight... after loading is complete loadbar and current photo fade out and the new photo fades-in in glorious color... something like the one used in [URL]
View 1 RepliesJust trying to make a flash photo gallery that displays all the image files in a certain directory with the usual photo gallery functionality.
View 1 Repliesits for a photo gallery that I downlowded,the images fades in and out, but only start that when you click a button(timer).I'm trying to founf out where in the script I can change this, so that the photo's start automatically,rather than, on a button click.I have pasted the script below, is that ok, or would people rather a zip file of the files?

I'm using the code below to create a simple gallery of thumbs in a line with space between each thumbnail.[code]I have a rollover/out function that scales up/down the thumb outwards from the centre of the thumb.I was expecting the scaling thumbnail to "push" the other thumbnails left and right as it scaled...but it only shifts the thumbs to the right of it and the thumbs to the left do not move.I need code to allow a scaling thumbnail to push aside the other thumbs in every direction.

Imagine a 3 thumbnails in a horizontal line, I want the middle thumbnail (thumbnail 2) to scale from the centre and push thumbnail 1 to the left and thumbnail 3 to the right. But obviously I want this to work for x amount of thumbs.
I need to get more control over the thumbnails.
gallXML.ignoreWhite = true;
gallXML.onLoad = gallery;
gallXML.load ("gallery.xml");[code]....
this has to be an array, so that I can give all thumbnails together an order. I thought this was an array, but I can't get control over this. When I trace 'thumbHolder', I get back only the last thumb. If I trace 'this', than I get the right one. i.e:
_level0.thumbnails.thumbnail4) */
thumbHolder._y = i * spacing;
thumbHolder.title = picHolder.attributes.title;[code].....
I have an XML photo gallery, that when it starts it has a loader for the photos. It always starts with the XML file determined sequence, which is fine, but what happens is that the tabs on the right hand side of the photo loader go astray while it is loading the first photo. If the first photo was loaded instantly this wouldnt be an issue.Is there a way that I can preload that first photo, so that it is in memory when the swf file reads the XML file, allowing the first photo to be instantly loaded ?Amongst other things, I tried embedding the photo in the swf file, but it didnt work...obviously I have no idea what to script...I also created another scene, prior to the main scene, to preload the photo.. but it didnt work either, again probably used useless script...Going further in detail, this is the main script:
Code:
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;
ZigoEngine.simpleSetup(Shortcuts, PennerEasing);

I have been searching for a particular photo gallery, and haven't got far. Here is an example of what I am looking for.

i'm currently re-using a code snippet of xml gallery with scrolling thumbs, but i got a problem : my mask is stagewidth and my pictures holder width depend of thumbs numbers, sometimes after resizing windows browser, while scrolling to the browser sides limit i cannot see the end of the last pic or the start of the first pic, how to fix that ?
tha'ts part of a bigger project, but i've isolated the bug in this source : [URL]
the fix i would like :
-seeing the whole first pic and whole last pic when scrolling to the border left and right
-placing the first pic at x:70 at start, and enter fullscreen
if someone may have a look on this , that's only a 2 mn fix for a skilled as3 programmer, but for me a headache
i am trying to add extra images to the photo gallery attached. I would have thought it is easy and it seems so. I add an extra image to the gallery. I publish it. The html file shows the extra image in the gallery but the swf doesnt. driving me crazy, cant work it out?
View 14 RepliesI am creating an image gallery and it has a set of scrolling thumbs at the bottom and when clicked it opens an image that is the large version of it. What i would like to do is have the scrolling thumbs inside a black stroked box using the drawing API and when clicked it opens that image larger with another black box around that image. I know you have to use the drawing API but I have no idea on how to implement it at all. Also is there any chance each image could have a preloader on it.[code]...
View 3 RepliesI'm making a dynamic gallery that loads images from an xml file, first load the thumbs of each collection and click on the thumb will display the corresponding collection. I want to make that the thumbs are a little animation in the rollover, I have tried several ways and can't do it, referenceThe code has many comments that are evidence I've been doing.

First of all I've only registered recently but read a lot of the pages on this forum. It's great!I've been working with the xml gallery with thumbs to get to a cool flash gallery. A lot worked out for me and I think I came very far. There's just one thing. I want a popup in it. BUT, not just a regular popup; i figured that out as well. I would like a popup in "Thickbox" style. Don't know if you know it.
With Thickbox [URL] you can open a new window with content that seems to float.I've been trying to get this working with my Flash gallery. Normally you just add a class=thickbox attribute to the link, but in this case it's in actionscript. And that;s the prob. I can't seem to get this to work.
I have a flash site that I'm working with that has an xml photo gallery as one of it's menu items. the photo gallery has three pages, all three containing thumbnail images that once clicked, load the larger image. The larger image dissolves in covering the page with the image. Once you click the larger image it dissolves out returning you to the gallery.
What I want to to do is to change the first page of this gallery to a video gallery, or player, leaving the other two galleries as image galleries. I tried simply replacing the images listed in the xml document to flv files and the flv file does not load. I simply want to know what it is I need to do in order to change this one page so that I can embed videos on it.
I've attached the Action script that loads the xml gallery in .txt format
i am trying to put some things together following the tutorials on this site. I did the tutorial 'Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash'and I followed it step by step and uploaded it with all the necessary files onto my remote server (xml file, Gallery folder, fla, swf, and html) - however, when I test the movie with flash, it seems to work fine (except the description test, my question to that later), but when I test it online it shows only the first image (but displays the correct number of images in the gallery); even when clicking the next button, it keeps loading the first image the first image. In other galleries (I use the structure for multiple galleries for my portfolio) the first image never loads at all.
Also, about the description text, in between the <caption> and </caption>, can I use <strong> and <em> and <br /> to change the appearance of my text? All it says is 'null'.If you want to look at what I mean check out my portfolio in the making. The problem with the first image displaying only is under 'paintings' and both the projects in 'design - packaging'. The second problem (no picture loading at all) is on some of the buttons in 'design - identity' (where I have not changed the description text of the tutorial yet).
Again,
how to make image gallery with thumbs and horizontal scrollbar. if images are more that three scrollbar is shown otherwise it will hide.
View 2 Repliesi have an xml driven photogallery with thumbs and the slideshow starts automatically and is cross fading and it has a next/play/pause/for buttons. Everything is fine but i don't like the way the thumbs scroller operates, it's way to mechanical and i would love to add an easing effect to it. How do i do that? this is the code of the whole gallery:

I am loading thumbs from an xml file and placing them into one container (sprite), which i later use for scrolling based on mouse position with this formula:
[Code]...
what im doing is showing different photo sets on the same timeline for my site. so i thought i would have each photoset on a frame and each frame has the stop function on it to keep it from playing them all. so i have a button saying "set 1" and when you click that its supposed to play frame 5. code on the button:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(7);
}
(set one is on frame 7) but this doesnt work i dont get it. whats wrong? is there a better way to do this?
I need help with page "Thumbs" (as first frame), page "List" (as second frame) and Image gallery (as third and base). So, every frame have one own XML file...When you choose some thumb or list line, you must came to this image in the gallery. Easy, sure.. but i don't know what Function exactly i need to use.It's one flash move, hence it doesn't work with getURL or loadMovie...Some exemple with 3 separate pages here: yuri.fr
