I've been away from Flash for a few years and I can't even do the most simple tasks now... :-/ Not being able to assign scripto buttons is really annoying. It makes thing neater to edit, but takes getting used to.I basically want to be able to flip between still pages of a virtual book. I have the pages, I added the stop(); command and two buttons. What code do I need to write to simply flip through the pages?
View 3 RepliesI am new to the site and was wondering if there is some kind of actionscript that will automatically make the pages of a book turn like in castlevania lord of shadows opening.

View 3 RepliesLooking for a tutorial to make individual pages (jpg or gif) into swf pages so we can add links in an on-line flip book. I have flash, but have not learned as of yet.
View 2 RepliesI am using one of those pageflipping books from page-flip.com's website. The free version is available here: [URL]. The file "flippingbook.swf" references a js file which points to a jpeg which is then displayed on the book's page. The jpeg can be substituted for a swf file. I would like to create a table of contents swf file (lets call it "table.swf") I would like to click a button on "table.swf" that would make "flippingbook.swf" go from page 1 to page 4, etc.
View 3 RepliesI am a graphic designer with many years of experience in Creative Suite Design Standard software. However I'm just beginning to get into Flash and have a project where I need to create a simple page-flipping brochure. My client has a 3-fold borchure in both SWF and JPEG formats which she wants to turn into a Flash flipping book to post on her website. I have the CS3 Web Premium package but I want to know if I need a third-party page flip plug-in or does my version of Flash (9.0) include the page flip engine?

I have a flipping book component. It come with the basic page turning function where the user can turn each page manually. Because there are many chapters,I created buttons under the pages so that the user can navigate directly to specific pages. I can not find and create the codeto attach to each button to make the pages flip directly to the indicated page? The component uses AS2,Here is main code that appears at frame 1.
import mx.containers.Window;
// Popup size
popup_width = 900;
[code]......
I would like to add some more pages to the book (there are 8 MCs now) but I cannot figure out how to do it - which part of the AS is responsible for that? I am gazing at the code like a drunk cow but cannot find the solution.
View 4 RepliesI have played around with the pageflip tutorial on this site, i am having some issues adding more pages? {URL]. I seem to be able to increase the number in the variable, this creates more pages when I preview the project, but brings up some errors. Even when the pages are created, they are blank I'm not sure where i create the content for them? in their own movie? then where do i drop them?
View 1 RepliesI was looking over the script from AS.org. for the page flip navigation.[URL]But see the thing with the script from AS.org is that it does not allow you to use images as the pages.
View 3 RepliesOk I was looking over the script from AS.org. for the page flip navigation. Looks kinda like this awesome example. [URL]
But see the thing with the script from AS.org is that it does not allow you to use images as the pages. If anyone knows another open source or could lend a hand.
I basically want there to be a series of externally sourced pictures displayed like pages of a book, each viewed one at a time. I want to be able to move between them with the left and right arrow keys. I also would like a variety of different transitions but for now I'm just working on one. In short I have the following on my root frame:
ActionScript Code:
//Declare page vars
var currentpage = 1;
var nextpage = (currentpage+1);
var previouspage = (currentpage-1);
[Code] .....
Then frame three plays through a tweened transition till frame 13 that simply contains:
ActionScript Code:
_root.transitions.gotoAndStop(2);
From 14 to 22 is exactly the same but a transition for a page turn in the other direction. When it loads it just loads with page1 and then nothing works. (By the way, for those who look at the project file, I know the images aren't loading in the right places but I'm gonna get to that once I've got this problem sorted).
There's a recent Apress book, Elst, Jacobs, Yard. "Object-Oriented ActionScript 3.0." Berkeley, CA, 2007. In it is this invocation of Transition classes laid out in prior pages of the book:
[Code]...
I've run the code, it's cool, I'd like to use the transition mechanism they created (beginning on page 411). In the middle of the code a .png is called up from the directory. But I have my own .jpg on the already on the stage, and I'd like to apply this book's
code to that. I just want to fade out the button I already have on the stage. How can this code be rejiggered to do that? The code can be downloaded from the Apress site [URL]
creating a flip-book in flash (using AS3) . I've looked at the other flip-book programs and editors out there, and none really give the customization that my company wants.I have something working, but the page scoping seems to be off. The pages will turn back and forward with a button click but they flip out of order. However, it all runs fine with no error when the user clicks on the pages themselves. This is the code from the main timeline (where I'm getting an error).

View 5 RepliesI'm trying out a page-flip program that tells me to create the pages as jpegs within a folder named "pages" in the Library. When I try to run it, it tells me it can't find the jpegs. I can get it to work locally by including the full URL (i.e., "...My Documentsedinnerpartiesimagesp3-large.jpg), but I know this isn't embedded in the swf file.
View 1 RepliesActually, I'm struggling with a flipping swf. I did lots of research, and know about flash component. Now I can make a simple swf flipping book like this. [URL]. However, I wanna add more functions in it. Like this. [URL]. This example is a html..contains css, javascript..etc...
just wanna know, is it possible to do the same thing in swf version?
That means..I want to make a flipping swf that i can:
- flip like a digital magazine
- double click to zoom in/out and drag
- also have buttons to control

I created some text, converted into a movie clip and I have three keyframes - 1,5,15.at 1 the text is as it is, at 5 i flip it horizontally, using the transform tool [q key] and at 15 i flip it horizontally it again, so it's normal again And I've put motion tween between both the places. Now when I preview the swf, from 1 to 5 the text animates as it is supposed to clockwise but from 5 to 15 it rotates clockwise
So it covers 1/2 revolution and then traces the same half back to become normal again.What must I do in order to make it swivel in clockwise sense only ?
Any tut for this number flipping effect? [URL]
View 2 RepliesI have a sprite element that i need flipped around 360 degrees, in it's position. I am looking to flip it forward, (similar to a dial in the casino machine, spins on the z axis).I would like it to look as if it was flipping forward, and then back to it's spot. The rotation would have to be on the z axis. I would prefer not to use the Enter_Frame event.
_testSprite = new Sprite();
_testSprite.graphics.beginFill(0xFF);
testSprite.graphics.moveTo(0, 0);

View 3 RepliesIn my intializeChar function i've got it so that when you move left it turns your char left by doing _root.grid.char._xscale *= -1; But that makes it so that every frame that your going left it will switch from looking left to looking right. What I want is to have the char face left while moving left and afterwards keep it looking left. And when going right it's the opposite, how do I do that?
function initializeChar() {
game.speed = 3;
game.path.char.swapDepths(10000);
game.char = {startx:1, starty:1, clip:game.path.char};

I have been experementing a little with the tween class and there is this one effect that I have been trying to create but with no luck. Is it possible to use the tween class with easing to have a mc flip into position? Here's an example of what I mean.

im just starting to learn action script here and i'm trying to get an image flipped so when i move to the left, the character is facing left and other way around, normally i would do this easily on director using rotation + skew property which is not available in flash:p
my question is how you could flip an image using action script, i tried using the _xscales but it doesn't work properly because the flash is flipping my image with registration point on the left edge. making the image flipped but also changed its _x
can someone give me some help with this? like using script to center out the registration point ?
