ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Create Preloader For Images On Menu

Sep 8, 2009

How to go about adding preloaders for images on a rotating menu. I am not after any kind of complex animation loader, just simple text that says 'Image Loading'. So I guess to simplify it, it could just be a peace of text that disappears when the image loads in....

1. Create moveclip with the words 'loading Images' some how load this in the background of main holder that loads images in so that when image loads it loads over the text 'Image loading' technically not a loader just text in the background.
2. Create moveclip with the words 'loading Images' that when image loads in the text is replaced by image that loaded in??

This is how I load my images in:
Code:
Select allvar holder:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
holder.addChild(loader);

So, I created a movie clip exported as 'preloader' and loaded it like this:
Code:
Select allvar preloader:Preloader = new Preloader();
holder.addChild(preloader);

Professional :: Create A Flash Program That Uses It's Own Code To Send And Create Images?

Sep 29, 2010

I'm trying to create a flash program that uses it's own code to send and create images. Each square has a colour and that colour gets added into the array. A black, then grey, then white is:

filecode = ["Bl", "Gr", "Wh"];

That works fine, but when I try to paste it into an Input text box it will only fill in the first part of the array.

filecode = ["Bl,Gr,Wh"];

So the program has NO idea what I want.The only ways I can think of fixing this is by putting in 402 text boxes to suit every box...But every one of them needs a Variable Name.Or by sending the information straight into the array. But this way you are just looking at what you just drew, and that is not at ALL practical.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Preloader To Existing Menu?

Oct 22, 2009

I am a newbie and been developing this menu that is XML driven and uses an External AS file for the script, so there is no AS on the timeline, it is all external. The Preloader. I found this preloader from here: [URL] which I have been trying to build into my movie, but with no joy! I don't understand how to add a preloader when you have external script, there is going to image directly on the stage, which is what the preloader would be loading.

Basically all I would like to do is add a simple percentage count for the preloader, a loading bar also would be great, but if not ,thats ok. The problem I have is when I put the preloader script into my existing menu all hell breaks loose. Below is a link to my menu files and also attached the AS script file, if that is better?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader & Color Change Of XML Thumbnail Menu?

Apr 22, 2010

I've created this thumbnail navigation bar that uses XML to get an external image, title, and link information. It then uses attachMovie() and a for loop to generate the listing. It all works like it's supposed to! However I am now having two problems. The first, since I am loading in an image I would like to have a preloader appear in all the thumbnail containers before the thumbnail image loads in. I have a simple circle preloader in each thumbnail module that I would like to hide it once the image loads in.

The second issues and perhaps the more important one is that the site is color coded meaning once you click on a navigation button the site color scheme changes to a different color. I put all the instance names of the site elements into an array and then created a color change function with a switch statement to had the color change. However I cant seen to include the newly attached thumbnails into this array so they don't change color along with everything else on the website. I'm completely suck on this and have no idea how to go about making thHere is my code:First this is how I loaded the XML data and attach the thumbnails:

ActionScript Code:
var linkItem:Array = new Array();
var instanceNames:Array = new Array();

ActionScript 2.0 :: Attach Sound To Menu Buttons And External Preloader?

I've attached a sound to menu buttons using AS. The sound worked perfectly until I created a external preloader file to load the swf into a container_mc. Now no button sound? If I load the swf without the preloader file the sound works?

Code: Select all//set up sound instance
var btnGrpAudio:Sound = new Sound(mcSoundHolder);
btnGrpAudio.attachSound("beaming");
btnGrpAudio.setVolume(60);

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader For Fullscreen Images

Oct 30, 2010

I am using images that are fullscreen and resize to fill the window as adjusted. So I want the prelader to also move across the window according to the bytes loaded. At the moment it is moving across the screen but not relevant to bytes loaded, it just zips straight across the screen and then you are left waiting for the image to load with no indication of how far it is away from appearing. Here is the code for the preloader:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloader For Loading External Images?

Sep 25, 2009

First of I'm using Flash CS4 and AS 3.0 I'm trying to make a photo gallery for my website. I have the gallery all setup and made and now I need a preloader for loading my images. Right now my gallery is setup like this:

-A list of clickable thumbnails. (20 thumbnails)

-A UILoader

-You click a thumbnail and it loads an external image into the UILoader.

Actionscript: I have an array with 20 images. I have 20 different event listeners for each thumbnail.

The eventlistener looks like this:
thumbs.thumbs1.t1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent. CLICK, loadP1);
The function looks like this:

[Code]....

The UILoader is inside 2 moveclips because of a transition effect I have. The buttons are also 2 movieclips deep because of motion tweens.specific reason.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloader For Multiple External Images At Once?

Apr 10, 2009

I am experimenting with AS3 and I created a page that loads around 35 images to the screen from XML and randomly scatters them on the stage. I know how to use the ProgressEvent to show the loading for each individual image, but I am trying to figure out a way to show it as a whole. The one think ive tried & acheived is to have total number of loaded images divided by total number of images. So when 15 of 30 images are loaded its 50 %, etc.... But Id like to have a more effcient preloader that shows the actually loading.

Professional :: Preloader For Portfolio - Stutters On All The Images

Jan 11, 2011

I have created a portfolio with flash using action script 2. But when I click on the button going to the portfolio Scene (containing pictures and tweens) it stutters on all the images when they are first clicked on. As the image increases in size, it is a smooth tween until the one from last frame which it stops then flashes on to the final frame. Is there a way I can preload all the images so that this will not happen? Or anything else I could do?
