I have 8 sprites and I want to load png for my buttons but I don't want to have to type all that loader stuff 8 times, so i wanted to try to create a loop with it.
Hopefully that makes sense, This is me trying to do it with just two but the plan is to have 8 buttons.[code]...
I'm making a highscore table in flash using AS3, I have successfully got working code that displays the names and the scores but also part of my high score table it needs to display the users country flag. The images for the flags are stored on a remote server.
Now I know how to load in a single image and add it to my movie clip but things get very complicated when I want to load in 20+ by iterating through a loop. I've looked at many examples and just cant adopt the sample code to work for me. Anyway without a further a do here is what I have so far.

I 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++) {
}
Is there a way to load multiple images with a loop and an array... i mean without using xml as said all forums that i've already read... i have 15 images and i want to know if it's possible to load all of them without a loader and a URLRequest for each one... there is the position problem too.[code]...
View 9 RepliesI am trying to load multiple images by iterating through a for loop. For each image I instantiate a loader and send a loader request. I want to stop the iteration of the loop and cancel all loader requests sent, in case a user navigates out of the screen. How can I do this?
View 2 RepliesI'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'm trying to create a slideshow which loads images dynamically from a folder on my server. The number of images in the folder will change on a daily basis, so I'm guessing that this needs some kind of array to predetermine the contents of the folder. The files will not have a regimented naming structure.
Basically, I need to display all of the images in the folder one by one and then loop back to the start.
Has anyone managed to do this before?
I'm loading in a bunch of images with a for loop. The images do appear on stage so that part works, however, spacing them is the problem. this is what the following code traces out:

I 'm checking to see if an image file exist but I don't think the code checks but the last iteration in the loop. Here's my code:

fix this or if you know a better way to check if an image file exist could you let me know.
why with this code i only get a request to ?ip=192.168.1.5 and not for all? what is it wrong? any problem with the load() function in a for loop?

Q: How to convert this to load images sequentially (one after another)?
Not supposed to send the linkage class as a string in the function call.
I can load an image in from the library with code by
1) creating a new object of the linkage class,
2) creating a new bitmap object using the new object, then
3) sticking it into a Sprite, but when I try to make it into a function it doesn't work.
ActionScript Code:
//linkage name, width, height, string for .name property
container.addChild( crtLibImg("PNGlinkageName",100,50,"myPNGname") );
function crtLibImg(thisPng,w,h,mName)

If you place a for loop in a recursive function with the function call within the loop... will the loop finnish or does it stop working untill the last recursion?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to use a loadMovie function inside a loop to load external PNG files when my game is loaded. Unfortunately, I can't get even a single loadMovie to work correctly, much less execute a bunch of them.The code is on the root time line, and is targetting an empty movie clip that is nested inside about 3 levels. There is a button, with a movie clip on it, and the empty clip I'm trying to load into on that.so the full target path is myBox_00.smallBox.myLogo(myBox_00 is the button, smallBox is the movie clip, and myLogo is the empty)[code].I even tried using a JPG image instead of a PNG and still no luck. The best I could do was number 4; and that didn't work, all it did was SOMETHING instead of NOTHING... unfortunately that something was to make the button (myBox_00) disappear entirely T_T.I've never had much luck with loading external images. What am I missing here?
View 9 RepliesHi I am trying to create an image scroller that just scrolls images from point a to point b on load horizontally in an infinite loop. I just used a code snippet to move it horizontally but don't how to get it to stop and at point b and loop again from a.

game1.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_AnimateHorizontally_3);
function fl_AnimateHorizontally_3(event:Event)

I'm making a XML photogallery. Im using a MovieClipLoader to load multiple images on the screen at the same time. I've assigned variable path to hold image
[Code]....
i couldn't find a tutorial on this matter so i sorta started making my own hypothesis... what i'm trying to do is: have a gallery of images automatically scrolling horizontally while having the set of images loop. like at[URL]..
here are a couple of my theories and questions for AS commands to have this work:
1) display a range of pixels of an image at certain positions, i.e. if gallery is scrolling to the left, leftmost image when its parts are disappearing out of the viewing area, they become visible at the right.
2) have two instances of each image and when an image is disappearing on left, the second instance of that image comes visible on the right. this I imagine would take up more HD space.
i guess what i was wondering more about is how jager did their gallery where there's only enough images are in a set to be viewed in the viewing area.
I have a variable in a loop that i want to access in a function outside of the loop. However the variable gets deleted when the loop is closed so no longer exists when i call in the function.here is the code; i'm trying to access the variable picHeight from within the scroll function
Code:
pauseTime = 3000;
xmlImages = new XML();

I am trying to load multiple images into a scene and then cycle through the images one at a time.So, here are the essentials what I've put together in AS3:First I set up a counter and a Loader
[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:
[code]....
So far, so good! I now have a bunch of loaders each with a different name "img1","img2","img3" etc.
I have a photo gallery that loads many images using a for loop (image data is from XML file). Simplified code looks like this:
Code:
var photos_xml = new XML();
photos_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

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 am stumped. I have tried to load a comboBox with a for-loop to load k school names and can not get it to load dynamically. Here is what works:schools_cb.addItem({label:varLoad.data.school1});It manages to paste the name of school1 into the comboBox k times.Then, when I try:schools_cb.addItem({label:this["varLoad.data.school" + k]});orschools_cb.addItem({label:this.getChildByName("var Load.data.school" + k)});it brings up k blank entries in the comboBox.I am a poor teacher trying to make a signup page for our school's math contest
View 5 RepliesI 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?

I am working on a Digital Signage-type application. I am attempting to change the script below so that the slideshow loads using the variables set in the slides.xml file, plays 3 times and then reloads the slides.xml to pick up any changes to it.
The script below is a sample file supplied by Cisco. It loads the slides.xml once and loops the slides indefinitely. I am attempting to modify it to allow it to pick up new slides that are added throughout the day. I know I need a loop, but not sure where to put it so it works correctly.

I am making a character walk. This code will make him wobble to the right and when thats done it will trigger him to wobble to the left and then call the function again to continue the loop.I can get the loop to work fine by calling the function but how do I STOP the function? Also I want to call it later on. Is there a way to start and stop a function?
function wobble()

I have successfully dynamically loaded Jpegs into my flash document(using PHP), but then I have another small problem.When I dynamically load the image (example: image_icon_bluesky.jpg) I then need to tell the MC that is holding the loaded image that it needs to do this...
on (release) {
_root.image_bluesky.alpha = 100;
}
SO basically every time a new image is loaded in my sort of "loop" script. I need to tell the image that it needs to put specific code onto the MC using specific "image" details for that specific image.
I hope this is clear. Basically what I'm trying to do.On my flash stage I already have MC's that have their alpha properties set to "0". Lets say there are 3 images. One MC is called Blue, other is called Red and the last one is called Yellow.Now using AS + PHP I have dynamically loaded 3 Jpeg's .
