I have 24 movie clips on the stage: my_menu.image_holder_mc1 thru my_menu.image_holder_mc24. I want to load an image in each one. How do I identify the holder which to add a child.
The Code I have so far is....
Code:
for (var i:Number=1; i<=24;i++){
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
myLoader.name = "image_"+i;

I have a group of 16 images that I would like to load 1 of each into each movieclip. I want image1 to be inside of visual1, image 2 inside of visual2, and so on. the images are named like, 1960s_(1).png where the 1960 (year) part is coming from the rangeNum variable. The above gives me this error: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type int.
I have 50 images that need to be on stage, which will be embedded into 50 different movie clips. I named the movie clips image1-image50 and the images are in an external folder named 1-50. Every freaking article or tutorial I have found clearly explains how to upload one image, or just one at a time. I can do that, and spend 2 days renaming all the functions, but I do not want to do that. Is there a better way to just load all 50 images, place them accordingly?
View 3 RepliesI don't see why this doesn't work as intended. Only the second MovieClip - arro_nxt - shows.
//Load the arrow art:
var arrow_loader:Loader = new Loader();
arrow_loader.load(new URLRequest("assets/arrow_sm.gif"));
//place the arrows:
var arro_prev:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
arro_prev.addChild(arrow_loader);
arro_prev.x = 100;
arro_prev.y = 100;
arro_prev.rotation = 90;

I am trying to build a image-gallery-type picslider class. I have a playlist.xml whose architecture should be clear from the URLLoader stuff in my code. What I aim to do is to load 3 initial images into MoviClips and place the three in an array.Then, I'll manipulate the array to allow the user to flip left or right between images, while loading others offscreen.What I am hiving trouble with is loading multiple images into MCs using the Loader object inside a loop. When I run the code below, only the last image loaded appears inside a MC on the stage.Do I need to dynamically create loaders for each iteration?
Code:

Then, after loading a list of images from an XML file, I call a function that I called "createImages". This function then takes the list of images and creates a bunch of loaders:

So far, so good! I now have a bunch of loaders each with a different name "img1","img2","img3" etc.

View 4 Repliesi want to create and manage 2 movieclips inside a single class. i just wrote a simple setup for this and i ran into a problem:i create 2 movieclips and want them to be displayed on stage.but only the second movieclip is actually displayed and the first one is just not visible. when i switch the order in which the movieclips are created i see the one being created last. so i totally dont know what to do here. since i am very new to flash i might be missing out on something obvious.here is my class:

I've been doing a lot of thinking about how best to construct classes that load multiple images, e.g. photo galleries and such.
What is everyone's take (or the general agreement, if there is one) on how to load those images? The 2 ways I am thinking about are these (after you've already got all the filepaths or urls to be loaded):
1)Create a for loop [code]...
Here, you are creating anywhere from one to a billion loaders, depending on the number of photos in your gallery, but they will load simultaneously. Is that a terribly bad approach?
The only other way I know of doing it is to add an event listener that re-calls the loading function when the loading of one image completes.
I want to load multiple pictures using ActionScript. I can do it in AS2 easily. But AS3 is driving me nuts.
I am loading all the images, but I am seeing only the last one. [code]...
I have the basic XML which loads an image onto a page but how do I add 2 more next to it, in the actionscript?
I have tried everything that I could think of, including adding extra image[ii] nodes etc.
Below is the code I am using.
I have also created an instance of image2 and and instance of image3 which should hold the 2nd and third pic. So when clicking on the next button it would change out all three images from the images.xml file...or if there are 5 images it would just show the next 2 in the image and image2 movieclip holders...
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];

Anyway i want to try load multiple movieclips using a for loop and displaying them in different spots.
Code:
for(i = 1; i < 5; i++){
createEmptyMovieClip(["target"+i] , i);

First of all , how can i change that "stub1.swf" to change its value like stub1.swf, stub2.swf stub3.swf etc. Also, it doesnt seem to create multiple movieclips; it only makes the one.
i have been building a library that has thumbnails which you click to view the full image. i have built the application it works but i want to change the way the image on the actual thumbnail loads using code instead of manually adding the value to the url loader component.
var myX;var instanceN:String;trace(instanceN);var currentLoad:uint = 0;// current loader and image loadingvar thumbnailURL:String;//Thumbnail URLvar thumbReq:URLRequest;// Thumbnail url requestfor(var k:uint = 0;k < iL_btn.length; k++)[code].....
the loop runs fine without the last line of code which i've commented out.the make up of these thumbnails are a uiLoader component which are each inside there own movieClip.what i wanted this to do was every time the loop runs it currentLoad adds 1 to its value then that value is subbed into instanceN:String and thumbnailURL address that bit works the trace statements read correctly.but my issue is using the instanceN value as the instance name path which then loads the current thumbnailURL value which is the URL address for the thumbnail picture.when i try to load the url address using the commented out code above i got the error .TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.the trace statements correct values below
the first value is the currentLoad value.
the second value is the instance name path.
the third is is the URL address for the thumbnail.[code].....

View 12 RepliesI have a project to do and I'm not sure how to get it done. I have some experience using xml to load images into flash but that was one at a time. the project that i'm currently working on needs to work like something like this.
I need flash to load in three images at one time(from an xml file) and display them in a horizontal line, and then move across the stage from one side to the other.
i know how to load one image at a time but not multiple. and i don't know how to make the images slide across the stage in a line.
I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do something with xml in flash and don't even know where to begin.I'm building a flash piece for the header of a website that will contain six images and six captions. I plan on integrating the xml file with a cms so that the user can simply upload images and type in captions and the xml file will dynamically populate the swf.I know how to execute the back-end development with the cms and xml file, but I'm not quite sure how to tie the pieces I need from the xml to the flash file.

As far as I can tell, it's convinced that I'm trying to use the load() method from the scrollpane class (that's where the context help takes me). How do I specify that I want to use the loader class method?
If you load say 3 external images in AS3 and want to run a function "useImages()" only once all three images have loaded what is the best way of listening for them to complete loading.
EG;
loader1.addEventListener(Eveent.COMPLETE, incLoader)
loader2.addEventListener(Eveent.COMPLETE, incLoader)
loader2.addEventListener(Eveent.COMPLETE, incLoader)

Basically my aim is to use SharedObject to save the basically what I am doing is I have a list of buttons each has a name which when clicked the name is added to an array which is stored in a SharedObject. In another movie clip I am calling back the SharedObject and using the array information to display the images corresponding to the name in the array. And I got everything working except I don't know how I can load my images in. Because the same images are not always selected it means that I can't just load each image to a specific Loader because then I would end up with blank loaders.
