I've always struggled with this for some reason, but say I have 5 images loading from XML. How would I make it so they would cross fade each other on an endless loop? I can make it so it gets to the end by loading them on top of each other and then fading each one out, but once I get to the end I'm lost.

I want to create an endless loop of images through a timer.On the fla I have an MovieClip �ImageClip� Yousing a timer I will repeat the call to imageArea.addChild() with the next image.My question is am I going to run out of memory as addChild() implies this.I want to replace the image not add more images to a collection.
View 5 RepliesThe images are loaded via XML and fadeIn in the order set in the XML file.At the moment a new image is required, it fades in. After the set time it gets deleted (setEndFlag) and the next image fades in.i guess i need to set a timer in order to fadeOut the "previous" image and fadeIn the "next" image. and after the "previous" image has run out of time it gets deleted.how could i include this in the script below? i really don't now how to do it anymore, since my as3 knowledge is not yet there where i'd like to be... and after hours trying to get my head around it i'm getting blind.[code]

I have three flv videos (video1.flv, video2.flv and video3.flv) and I want to play them one after the other (no controls, no skins). When video3.flv is finished I need the movie to restart playing video1.flv again and the rest after it, an endless loop.
How can I do that??
I've tried including the videos one after the other in the time line and in the last frame a gotoAndPlay(1); This works, but the final .swf weights almost 10mb. The project is web based so this is way too heavy.
Now I'm trying the flvPlayback component, but I'm getting quite lost here. I'm importing the three flv to the library. The video implementing wizard shows for each flv but finally I have only one FLVPlayback element in the library. Then I drag an instance on the stage but I don't know how to continue .. Am I doing it correctly? If so how can I continue? Will this method give me a lighter final .swf?
I have made a game, and now I'm putting in a highscore-function. Like the one below, who reads the highscore-list. Everything is working fine when testing from flash, but when I start the swf-file from the folder (or test it on the iPhone), it just loops throught every frame, why is this? If I cut out the code below, it works fine on both stand-alone sfw-file and on the iPhone. I've tried to only use the first line below, to test, and it loops.
ActionScript Code:
var file2:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("highscore.txt");
// Create a file stream to write stuff to the file.
var stream2:FileStream = new FileStream();

This script goes with "prev scroll button"
trace(_level0.imagestrip_mc.images._x+"before images");

View 1 RepliesHow do I make a smoothe and endless horizontal loop of five or six photos that seems seamless ? I think that this is an actionscript thing that I do not know. I just want five or so evenly spaced photos to scroll from right to left at the top of the stage.
View 1 RepliesI recently wrote a small script to display an endless scroll for 360 degree images. The image is loaded dinamically so I can use it as a viewer for all the 360 degree images in the site's gallery. It works fine, but I found one image that appears truncated even though everything else works as expected. I found this [URL] that says: The maximum image size of a Flash 2 movie is 2880 x 2880 pixels The image that is giving me this problem is larger than that and it seems to be cut at 2880px widht. Can anyone confirm this? And if so, is there any way to override it since I'm using pure as? Despite the years working with flash, I keep finding these nasty surprises. Last time I learned about the 16,000 frame limit when working on a cd presentation... I wonder what's next.

How can I keep this cross fading between the last frame of my scene and its first frame ? A simple gotoandplay(1) does not give me the expected result.The cross fading effect is lost.

The loops fades a random image, which works great the first time round, if I go to another page and then back the home page (which is where this code is on frame 1) the first image loads but the random image code does not continue. I think it has something to do with nextHolderBool.
var numbers:Array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20];
var numRemaining:Number;
var randomIndex:Number;
var currNumber:Number;
var nextHolderBool:Number = 1;

how to have say... 5 images fading from one to another, looping using action script. I found a tut which does it using tweening, that's simple enough but apparently action script will reduce the file size and make it smoother.

I�ve made this photo galery but i�d like to add some extra things but don�t know how to do it.
#1 - a preloader for the image loading,
#2 - make the image to show gradually like fading in in the box.
I'm current trying to create a slideshow with images loaded externally, and then crossfading between one another.I've achieved how to load the images one after another, but however I'm having problems with achieving a crossfade.Do I need to have 2 seperate image loaders? Because I do not want to have the first image fade out, showing the background for even a minute of a second before the second one fades in.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to do an animation in which 4 images will fade from one to the other. The problem is that they need to fade on a button command as opposed to a timed base. Meaning... there will be four buttons on top of the images, pretty much like onbut instead of the images going away and then having the new one come in, they have to fade from one to the other. Since the user can go from one to the next randomly, the image that's displaying has to fade out and the image whose number the user clicked has to fade in on top.

I'm currently working on this site, which was made on a linear timeline and just rewinds and fast fowards to the frame with each page on [URL]
This was done with limited Actionscript, but now I need to redo it almost entirely in AS
I figure I need to keep everything on one frame (separate vertical frames, but no animation horizontally) and create movieclips for each page's content and tell it to fade in the content of whatever page is clicked on the nav, and fade out the rest. I will also need to do the same, but with the background images in fullscreen. I also have a problem with the bottom nav. It adjusts to window height on resize, but I can't get it to adjust automatically.
So how do I
1. Tell the movieclips to fade in and out when a button is clicked
2. Get the background images to fit full screen, and also fade in/out for each page
3. Get a movieclip to adjust to screen size without using onResize

// Load the vars from the external Php file
myVars.load("Select.php")
myVars.onLoad = function(success) {

This seems to work ok. Now I want to fade the images in rather than have them just pop up. I think I'll need to put in some kind of pause to wait until the images are loaded before I try any fading but I don't know how to do that. What I need to do to fade my images in once they have loaded rather than just have them pop up?
got the fading working on an xml driven gallery i made, but after clicking the images a few times the fade effect gets faster and faster and eventually stops working.

I'm still an amateur at flash (more precisely, actionscript), how to do a simple gallery with static thumbnails which, when clicked, dynamically load an image into an empty movie clip, fading in and out (using actionscript)? By that I mean, click on a thumbnail, main image fades in, click on another thumbnail, loaded image fades out, image of clicked thumbnail fades in. Is it possible? I have successfully achieved thumbnails that load an image externally using both XML and using the ordinary loadMovie function, opting in the end for the loadMovie function and modifying AnaS' [URL] code (some of his comments are still in there). The reasons being that I'm not particularly concerned if I can't use XML for this, but I do want the images to load externally to save space.
I figure that the thumbnails are small enough in file size for me to afford to put them in, but just in case anyone think that XML is better for the job, I'm also including my XML file. On top of AnaS' code, I have added an if-else statement (lines 13-21) but, as I have said before, I'm an amateur, so I can get my head around the 'if' part of the statement, but haven't figured out the 'else' section (namely, the fade out). From what I have seen (I've been looking for the solution for a long time), most people just settle for fading the image either in or out, but rarely both. If there IS a gallery with both fades, it is usually done professionally and the code is either unavailable or goes over my head.
How to click on a thumbnail and load and unload the image using in and out fades. I have seen something which is almost what I need (both fade in and fade out are present) in the form of Kirupa's XML gallery, but I wanted to make mine just the bare essentials and really simple (i.e., no carousel/sliding effects). I just noticed that there is no tutorial for something like this. Kirupa has two very, very good tutorials (the XML portfolio, which is very simple, and the XML gallery with the slide, which is quite advanced) but not an 'in-between' one, such as the one I'm trying to create. [URL]. I have an empty movie clip ('loader') and three thumbnails ('thumb1', 'thumb2' and 'thumb3') on the stage.
My code:
this.onEnterFrame=function() {
if (loader._alpha <100) {
loader._alpha += 5;
} /*else {
if (loader._alpha > 0) {
loader._alpha -= 5;
