I have an XML document that lists url of images to be displayed. What I want to do is load the length of images in the XML doc into an Array. Then take that array and make movieclips for each one.
View 2 RepliesI 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:
package
{
import flash.display.*;[code]......
If I have a folder with a random number of images in it, how could I add each image to its own movieClip?
View 1 RepliesCan you addChild to a specific movieclip instance i.e. movieclip.name.addChild(movieclip).
I have built a 'for loop' to render a series of 'products'. The idea being to create a movieclip, load an image into this movieclip, assign a URL and later some text.[code]...
I have a flash file with about 32 empy MovieClips on the stage.Basically what I need to do is take an array of images and load them into these empty MovieClips. Hope this makes sense so far.This array will be dynamic and will come from a PHP file.The problem is I'm not sure how to do this? I don't know to take an array in flash and allocate the images to individual MovieClips.
View 1 RepliesI have 4 groups of movieclips all with different names.
Example:
Group1 contains dog_mc, cat_mc and bird_mc
Group2 contains shoe_mc, hat_mc and pants_mc
etc...
What I am trying to do is load a random group initially (either 1-4), then I want to play that group of movieclips. Once that group is completed playing all its movieclips, I want to move on to the next group and play all those movieclips. When all groups and movieclips have completed, I want to loop back to the start.
how to load movieclips from the library to an array or vector?
View 2 RepliesI have loaded some images through XML and attached into dynamically created MovieClips named mc0,mc1,mc2...etc.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to load 10 images through an array using a loop. I have the images loaded as movieclips and this set up but nothing is working. Any suggestions?
var picArray:Array = new Array[img1,img2,img3,img4,img5,img6,img7,img8,img9,img10];
for (var i:Number=0; i<10; i++) {
}
What I'm trying to do is to create a class loading three images as a pile into a movie clip and be able to switch from one image to another (with a fade effect) thanks to a method (setPic).
The problem I have is when I want to store my loaded image into my array( magnitude[i-1] = loader.content; ) it doesn't load anything, provoking the addchild(magnitude[i-1]); to return a null error. I know the file is properly loaded because if I addchild(loader.content) directly it does load the image (but I can't store it and access it later obviously).[code]...
I am trying to figure out how to load a folder of images into an array.
I'm not sure how to do this?
I don't want to have to reference each image, but just reference the folder, which will load in all the images to an array.
I'm going to show a bunch of images in a slideshow.Since everybody hate waiting for things to load, I thought it would be a good idea to load all the images in the background while the user is clicking on other things. - user enters page-- design and menues are loaded--- the page is showed to the user---- images used in other parts of the flash-site is loading "behind the scenes".When the user finally open the slideshow, he/she don't have to wait for the images to load.This is my code:
Code:
function downloadImages(i:uint = 0) {
trace("- Downloading portfolio images");

I've got a weird problem that could probably be easily fixed if I weren't such a novice coder. I'm loading external jpegs into movie clips that are within a movie clip which is within another movie clip (because they are animated as a whole within the other movie clips). The XML loads fine. The "Image" class I've made up is defined. The attributes from the XML load into the array of images.
However, I can't loop through the movieclips to actually load the images. But if I define manually the movie clip loads it loads perfectly. Here is the code that loads the images successfully, but not 100% dynamically:
ActionScript Code:
// Define the Images Array
var ImageArray:Array = new Array();

I've searched for ages on this and I can't see how it's done, I've got a set of images in my library and each one has been "exported for actionscript" with class names of stim1, stim2...stim12. Now, I have a bit of actionscript code that creates instances of these classes and will load the stimuli to the stage:

I have an array with 20 elements and a shuffle function applied. Now i need to screen only 4 elements from that, which then should be deleted from the array in order to avoid repetition (next play will pick other 4 images and so on) Anyone knows if there a class i can use?

function processXML(e:Event):void {
var my_xml:XML=new XML(e.target.data);

Is there a way using flash you can display images but each one selected randomly from say an array of different images?
View 4 RepliesI received help on this site on this info-graphic im doing and the solution was to use an "array" which im not familiar with at all. the person that helped me added the following code that worked:

since i dont know how to use arrays im stuck. i need to add at least 30 more cities to my info-graphic but don't know how to use the naming conventions of an array.Only one of the houses works (when you click on it a pop-up appears, is draggable and has an x to close the pop-up)

My problem is that I can't figure out how to decouple the loader from this loadNewRow function. Ideally, I'd like to figure out how to load all the swf's give them dynamic names... like thmb1loaded, thmb2loaded, thmb3loaded.. push into an a ("loaded") array and then have that be used to build the grid.Right now, its loading them every time the loadnewrow function fires. I'm sure its a simple matter of iterating a .name within a contentloaderinfo .onComplete when each swf is loaded...

I am using actionscript 3. I can load an image in a class but how do Iload a number of images eg 4 images that animate.?These 4 images are a walking sequnce of a character. I am unclear after googling an loading multi images in as3( just love google).
Loading a single image I load this into a loader Once loaded I load the image into a bitmap and add to a sprite I then add the spite to the stage Q)Now for 4 related images I load 4 loader or 4 sprites or 4 bitmaps or do every thing 4 times?I want to do collisions eventually and I need bitmaps but bitmaps seem useless to use other than collisions.Googling for answers isnt helping me clarify this!

I have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?

Loading in Movieclips instead of images
View 6 RepliesI am trying to load my images with xml and then turn them into movieclips and attach an eventlistener. With the code below this is the error I get.

I am trying to provide a reflection for the images(movieclips) that I loaded on the stage. For this purpose I am using a reflection class. The class can be used with action script 2. the reflection is working finely. Also after loading the image or movieclip, I tried to give tweening for that image or movieclips. Thus also it works finely. The reflection of that also moves along with the actual image. The problem comes with the resizing the actual image. If I resize the actual image, the reflection would not be seen under the actual image.Can anybody know why it may happening like that. After searching for a long time, I got this class.But unfortunately, the reflection would not be working when the image or moviclip resizes.
