Today I have a problem with loading pictures from a server that is not under my control. So I cannot use a policy file.
The Loader works fine actually.
Problems arise when I convert that loader.content into a Bitmap.
ActionScript Code:
var link = "http://mystatus.skype.com/smallclassic/martin.kruusement";
var bmp:Bitmap;
var loader = new Loader();

I have just been to a really nice website that has some really nice use of Flash on it.... I'm totally wowed by the resizing picture effect though? When each picture loads the loading frame resizes to the new picture size.

View 3 RepliesI want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:
on (release) {
thisframe =+1
}
[code]........
but it didn't work. I'm kind of new to any action script other than gotAndPlay, easy functions and all that.

View 2 RepliesOperating System - Windows 7, 64 bit Web Browsers - Mozilla Firefox, Version 3.6.6 Microsoft Internet Explorer, 32 bit, Version 8.0 Flash Player Version 10.1 For some reason, the new version of Skype is playing havoc with my Flash Player plugins for both Firefox and Internet Explorer.
I downloaded and installed the latest Skype software today and noticed immediate problems. Skype was not responding and the Flash Player plugins on both browsers began crashing. I uninstalled both Skype and the Flash Player plugins. I then restarted my computer and reinstalled the Flash plugins. Functionality was restored to the Flash plugins in my browsers. I then reinstalled Skype. It was immediately non-functional and my Flash plugins started crashing again.I am now at the point where I have reinstalled the Flash plugins again and functionality is restored. I know if I try to install Skype, the Flash plugins will crash again.
how can I save a picture from swf file without any server (php,asp,etc..) IS it so , with jpegencoder class and as3 and flashplayer 10
View 2 RepliesI am trying to upload image to the server so that i could load it into my flash app than. I'm sending the image via FileReference and listening to uploadCompleteData event. The problem is that the server side script does not returns the link to the image but it returns the image itself. In other words the PHP script doesn't save the file but send it back instead as a response.
So, after the file has been downloaded back to flash, the uploadCompleteData event is fired and the data property of this event is populated. But the data property is a String! And i need to get the byte array instead!
My question is: how should i convert the data to byte array? Or maybe the string i receiving is not the encoded image?

i made a pic gallery that loads pics from xml file.. when I open the gallerys .swf itself on my server it works fine.. when I open the website .swf file on my server it looks fine... but, when I open the flash-generated .html file and try to open my gallery on my web site it sometimes shows me only a couple of pictures... sometimes none. also, when I open it up on my computer, it works fine...
btw: the gallery is stand-alone and I load it in my flash web site through the code ->
Code:
var ldr = new Loader();
var url:String = "MY GALLERY.swf";
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

I used to work with CS3, but now I have CS4. I want to load jpg picture in movieclip. But it doesn't works. I have tried to load *.swf and it's works. This is my code:

loadMovie("small.jpg",_root.a);
there are no changes on stage.

I'm trying to learn how to load multiple images from an XML file, I have the XML file done with the image names and X,Y each one should be loaded on the screen, but I'm totally lost on the AS3 file.Here is the XML code: XML
ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;[code].....
The XML gallery I have has a pop-up window that appears after selecting a thumbnail. What I'm trying to accomplish is for the first picture in the gallery to load into the pop-up window, which is now always shown on the stage. I was able to make it so that the pop-up is always visible, but one thing I couldn't figure out is how to make it so that the first picture in the gallery loads into the pop-up box WITHOUT the user selecting the thumbnail first?I think it has to do with this code:
Code:
portfolio_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
var gallery = this.firstChild.childNodes[index];
galleryInfo.text = this.firstChild.childNodes[index].attributes.title;

I am creating a custom class called Image. When called from a SWF it constructs the box and text as it is supposed to, but I also need to call an image into the object but that isn't happening.

We are using FMS3.5 for VOD streaming. It's spotted that when we are using Flash Player Version = WIN 10.0.42.34/10,0,45,2, it is encountered that the video picture is hang but audio keeps playing after our commercial break point. we will first pause the video content and then use the same object to play the instream ad. After that, the video is resume when instream ad complete.
View 1 Replieshow to overlay a picture/watermark onto live stream published from a client? (like TV stations do).Can this be encoded into the stream in realtime by FMS so client could not record/view a clear stream? (for example overlay watermark for non-paid subscribers).I don't want to do this on client side because then someone can build custom app to play a stream without the overlay. Or is FMS4's SWF Verification so good, that I don't need to be worried?
View 3 RepliesI am building a web site and I have the main movie, which loads a picture gallery (another .swf file) using "loadMovie();" and then the problem comes in - my gallery movie has a preloader which after finishing is supposed to move on frame 2 of the gallery movie, but instead of that it moves to frame 2 of the main site...
This is the main movies button code loading the gallery:
on(release) {
gotoAndStop(5);
Gallery_Sub.loadMovie("../Flash/murals.swf");
Here is my preloaders code on the frame 100:
_level0.gotoAndPlay(2);
And at last my gallery movie's code on the preloader frame:
stop();
percent = Math.floor(getBytesLoaded()/getBytesTotal()*100);
if (percent == 100){
_level5.gotoAndPlay (2);
}else{
_preloader.gotoAndPlay(percent);
}
I tried using loadMovieNum(); but somehow it didn't work as well.
I just trying to learn basic flash programming skills, now I got a program that load an image from my local machine, and show it with uiloader component, code is something like:
var myImage:String = "picture.png"
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(myImage);
uiLoader.load(request);
It's working fine, but when dynamically change the picture, I notice a flicker while loading, there is any way to avoid this flicker? i mean, like double-buffering or so.
I know to load an swf, its like: loadMovie(yadayada); But is there a way similar to the way above but it loads a picture instead?

I've loaded data from an XML file and put it in an array that contains everything. I'm trying to get the drawing API to draw some shapes dynamically on the stage using this information. They drew fine before when I was using hard-coded test values, but now that it's dynamic it doesn't work, and I think that's because the shapes are trying to draw before they get their values to draw with. Is there any kind of like "on(something)" I can use to ensure everything's fully loaded before I begin drawing? (The XML file's already in an "onLoad" function.)
Secondly, I'm trying to adapt the dynamic XML image gallery Kirupa tutorial found HERE to work when a button is pressed, and have the images load into a container created with the drawing API. Does anybody have any tips on how this could be accomplished? For reference, here's the code I'm using to create the boxes to house the images (each box consists of a nested preloader bar, and the actual container for holding the loaded image):
Code:
//main box
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("pictureBox_mc", tempClip_mc.getNextHighestDepth() + 5);

I got suck on my little project of a pictures... I am trying to preload a picture. Since they are quite big, i want the user to know that it is loading.I am able to load a xml and calculate the totalbytes and bytesloaded, but cant with the JPG that i am trying to load.
View 2 RepliesI'm creating a picture viewer that dynamically loads the images from my site, and I'd like to be able to have flash determine how many images are in the folder when it runs. I know I could do this with an xml file, but I have a hunch that there's an easier way to script it.

I made a website that does it alright on the internet on my PC, and I haven't heard any complaints from my client either, but a few hours ago I visited a friend and on his PC the website didn't work exactly as it should. So I wanted to ask all who reads this, to please have a look at this and tell me if you have the same problem or not.
The website is here
When you're on the opening page you have to press the 1st button under the pics (the word = the link), then a centered flash pop-up appears with in the upper banner the buttons of the 4 different pages. In the Arabic "gate" there should always be a text scroller.
The problems were the following:
- - On some of the pages the text scroller didn't appear, or the scroller appeared but where the text should have been there was the word 'undefined'
- - On the "wat" page, there should be a horizontal picture slider behind that Arabic gate. On the PC of my friend only a few pictures appeared, making the gaps between the pics that were shown gigantic and with variable sizes (normally, with all the pics shown, the spaces between the pics are all the same width)
I am trying to write a class file for loading a movieclip but it is not working. I am not even getting any error message.
