My slideshow works, but on my website it keeps getting stuck when the 1st image is fading out. But if you click the Next button, it will go to the next one, then the slideshow will cycle perfectly, even through the 1st image just fine. I'm attaching a zip file with my FLA and my XML file.
View 1 RepliesI 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.
In the tmbLoaded function all I had to do was place the if/else statement after photoBmp and photoBack creation and remove the tween inside the if/else statement. Also, I was advised to not use a global variable for TweenLite because I need not worry about garbage collection using TweenLite.
Original Issue
I'm working with an image gallery and the first image in the transition ends up stuck near the bottom of the file, but the remaining images fly right into place.
I have a sneaking suspicion it may have something to do with my positioning somewhere or with my tweening. I added a global variable thinking it may have something to do with garbage collection causing my tween to partially stop, but that didn't solve the problem. It's just that first image when it transitions onto the stage. After that, everything works perfectly. Even the click transition.
This is part of my final project and given that I get this fixed, everything will finally be working. Everything is built using as3, so you could just copy and paste it, if you'd like. Except, of course, for the xml (which I'll post in a comment), the url button which is imported from the library, and the text format which can be faked with any embedded font and exported as Myriad.
var fileNameArray = new Array();
var urlArray = new Array();
var targetArray:Array = new Array();

I'm aiming to get an image start 40 pixels in from the right edge (of the browser - using 100% width in css) and once clicked move to 40 pixels from the left edge. Now I've managed to (almost) do it fine in AS3, but, no problem with getting the image to glue to the right hand side, then tween to the left. It's when the user drags the browser to a nice size, the image jumps back over to the right! I almost need a bit of AS3 script that says 'once animation has completed, don't pay attention to the repositioning command!' if that makes sense! My coding is below; (ball_mc is my image)

Click on the top portfolio button and a portfolio section will slide in (load ext swf.)I've used the code from The problem is I need to specify where the left and right edges of my scrollable area is - right now it is scrolling with regards to X = 0 and Y = 0. and the scrolling is way off.Here's the As from the portfolio scrolling movie: ( I've got the AS pasted on to a hot spot so it only works in that window - but the X and Y values are messed as you'll see)

I have a movie which is serving as a button.When you rollover the image, it grows, and stops.When you rollOut, it shrinks, and stops.This code works fine. The Problem:When you scroll the mouse over quickly, the animation get stuck and doesn't execute the rollOut code.This is most likely because the first rollOver action hasn't yet completed.Here's my code:
thumb_test_4.onRollOver=function () {
this.gotoAndPlay(2);

I attempting to make a slideshow like the one on this page: [URL] But i was wondering if it is possible to change the code so that if you click on the main image, another image could come up next to it? (I'm making a portfolio site, and i want people to click on one of the main images to then see a detail image next to
it).
I'm fairly new to ActionScript 3.0 so forgive me if this question is easy, but I'm having issues with my portfolio slideshow. I have a few thumbnails and when you click on one the image slides in from the right. That part is fine. What I really want is for the user to click on a different random thumbnail and have the current image slide out as the new image slides in. My code so far:

I made a flash website with photo galleries using a component that I bought online. The component is loading the image in a thumbnail scroll bar via a XML file and the full size image display in a UILoader. So far nothing special. But when I reach a certain amount of pictures in the gallery, the scroll panel get stuck while loading and doesn't display the full size image. Then the thumbnails don't react at all.

I have been trying to use the XML image slideshow posted here and everything works but one thing. The images to load which have the same px dimensions as the mask for the container will keep scaling up for a reason I can�t find in the code. I have been trying to fix this all day without any luck and I am about to go mad here. I am using FCS3 but saving a F8 doc with AS2. Could anyone take a look to the file and tell me what the problem could be?
View 3 Repliesokay, I know most slideshows have more than one image, but when the slideshow only has one, it blinks on and off. The problem is I am using this in a cms tool that pulls the files dynamically so i will sometimes have more than one,but other times, only one.

I have made a random image loader for a slideshow, but the preloader does not work for it (I grabed the preloader from a previous website I made) Is there a way to preload the images or the slideshow and/or have the next image pre-load while the current image is playing. I have attached a zip file of the random image loader

View 6 RepliesI am wanting to make the Images in the XML Slideshow Tutorial a clickable link. So that a user can click on the actual image when it is displayed and be redirected to another page. It would be good if the URL that the images redirect to are also embedded in the XML file with the other image info. This would be similar to the News Ticker Tutorial where the URL for the News Text is in the XML.

this relates to the tutorial posted by kirupa on creating an image slideshow using xml with actionscript: [URL] this slideshow is great, but i'm wondering whether it is possible to start it in the middle of the sequence. so, for instance could one button load a swf file with code that would start the slideshow at, say, frame 5 out of 10? i understand how the actionscript for this works, but am running into deadends on how to get the xml more specific. oh, and i'm using flash 8 for this.

View 2 RepliesI found a tutorial online to do a Image Slideshow. [URL]. But, I can not get anything to work. I am new to this and unfortunately do not have time to do any formal training right now. Probably when this project is done. When I "test movie" I just get a white screen w/ nothing on it. I should be getting a box 500x500 w/ a box that is 400x400 for my frame. I just finished step 3, and I do not get my frame box like a should.
Here is what my .xml document says:
<slideshow width="400" height="400" speed="5">
<image url="images/1.jpg" />
<image url="images/2.jpg" />
<image url="images/3.jpg" /> .....

I have a XML banner slide show component that displays images and can also display .swf files. Each image displays for 3 seconds. It works like a charm with the images. But if I put a .swf file in the XML the .swf file will only display for 3 seconds as well. Which I understand why. The problem is if I want my .swf file to have a .flv that plays for 30 seconds it will only show for 3 seconds.
QUESTION:how to pull the length from a .swf file that contains a flv file so I can use that duration time to replace the 3 seconds variable? I just need the duration time of the .swf file. I know what else to do to replace the variables.
I have a nice as3 swf that reads and xml file, and loads images with transitionsfor a slide show on an html banner page.This works fine. There are some users that see white space (the stage) before thefirst image loads. Depending on the clients connection, etc this can take aslong as 2 or 3 sec.
I was thinking about placing a jpeg in the fla, and adding it to the stageas a symbol or graphic, so instead of white space (or a color other than white)the user sees an image on the page, and when the xml loader places the first image on the page, the user sees the image, and the slideshow, etc.
I create a web template in Dreamweaver 8; in this template I added a slide show (Image Viewer). This template is working fine in browsers and slide show also playing, but when I create the new web page from this template, and then the slide show not playing, there is an error message display.
"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? Yes or No"

I have a web page with an image slideshow. JQuery calls a Flex app with a list of jpg images to load and display. Can Flex load and display the first image and then continue loading the rest of the list or can Flex only do one thing at a time (i.e. load all the images and then start the slideshow)? There is a significant delay while all the images load and I need to sped up the slideshow.
