I am trying to make gallery of images located on server(local folder currently). I put pics in loader or grid. But I wouldlike to make action script which with on button click will takepics names as array from this folder and will great gallery. Thisfolder will be updated very often.
View 1 RepliesI downloaded a flash spread gallery [URL]which uses a xml file to designate the pics to be used. It is very cool but it is kind of a pain as I have to manually type each pic name in the xml file. Is there a way that I can modify either the xml or the fla to just pull the pics from a folder? Maybe two folders one for the pics and one for the thumbs?
I would like to just dump a bunch of pics in a folder and their thumbs in another and have it automatically just post them.Attached is the fla and the xml (and a .js file) zipped.flashmo_185_spread_gallery.flaflashmo_185_photo_list.zip
I have 12 pictures I need to load and then make accessible as buttons or - when the user presses on the picture it initializes a function.
What is the best way to do this? I went the loading a picture through URLRequest and URLLoader route but I need to load 12, place them on the stage, make them move upon NextBnt press and and then when the user selects the picture., the view goes to another screen. does that make sense?
I am trying to develop a way to load and unload pictures and zoom in to them in a dynamically way. This is done with the idea to save space in memory for further use. I was helped by Dawsonk a while ago and we came to this code:

I want to make an application that loads some images with a Loader by making URLRequests to a local folder. Can I build the application and include somehow this folder so when I send it from a server to a client the URLRequests operate normally on clients side? Also if this is possible, the folder may be not viewable/accessible by the client but only from the Flash application that comes with it? So for example, this piece of code that runs nicely, locally, to my machine, if i send it to a client will continue to run to its machine. Can somehow send the folder and the SWF as one object?
private function clothesOn( outfit:String ) {
var clothier:Loader = new Loader();
var item:String = "clothes/" + outfit + ".gif";
var getItem:URLRequest = new URLRequest( item );
clothier.load( getItem );
this.addChild( clothier );
}
Can I do this in AS3?

View 2 RepliesI 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.
An array of different pictures that I call in from a local folder. I have a method to mix up the array to make it random. I then want to display the first picture in the array and then when I press a next button I want it to go to the next item in the array and stop when there is no more items left in the array.

I'm creating the action script for a VRC/LRC Program [URL] The program is made up of a 5x5 matrix of input text boxes which is limited to only one character which can be either one or zero. The rows and columns will be XORed.The last column and the last row will show the results. The results will depend if the user wants and even or an odd parity.. I have trouble in XORing the textboxes.

I have a movieClip called "button" within another movieClip called "movie1_mc" I want the "button" movieclip, which also loads XML on frame 12 of "movie1_mc to vanish on or after frame 13
This is the code I have in place but, "button" movieClip isn't disappearing. This is my first time using XML and Flash
//Code to "button movieClip disappear//
if (_root._currentframe == 13) {var linkname:Array = [_visible=false];}
Can I make an array of movieclips, and then make all of them visible? some-thing like:
ActionScript Code:
myArray[1] = new MovieClip();
myArray.visible = true;

Is there a way to make a new array like an old one but have it not be a reference?
View 2 RepliesI got an array with much information (just numbers). I don't want the SWFDecompiler to read this array, so how can I deceive it? The array looks like this (not exacly, but):
[[[1,2,32,4,54,6,74],[19,2,23,44,5,3,7]],[[0,4,42,49,9,5,14],[19,2,8,64,1,3,1]]];
But it's way longer than that. Anyway, like I said before, how can I deceive the decompiler so it can't read my array?

View 3 RepliesI have an object called MenuButton that extends MoveClip.I want to arrange 8 MenuButton objects in a cirle. The easiest way to do this would be to use a for loop and an array of MenuButton objects.The problem is, I'm not exactly sure how to make an array of objects. I've seen some code online, appears to be AS2 and I need 3. It's also not very clear if it does what I need it to.It would also be cool if I was able to name the buttons sequentially, i.e.: button1, button2, etc. I've seen AS2 code for that, but again it's not too clear if that'll work the same in AS3 and if the code I've seen will do what I need it to.
View 2 RepliesI am new to flash CS5 and I am having a problem creating a character with multiple parts.My problem is. I created the character parts in PS: CS5 and save it individually as PNG with transparent background, but when I Imported it to Flash CS5 and applied a bone on it and test the bone. The image is messed up and as I realize that the individual png transparent image has a background.That's why the imae pic is distorted, messed up.I know it's hard to imagine so I post a pic.As what I have said. It is only an example screen cap of the problem.When I apply a bone and test that is the result.I am unable to draw in Flash cause it's different from PS which where I draw the chars, parts, and everything.

View 0 RepliesConsider this for a second:
Code:
theState.stateGrowth = 0;
globalVariablesArray.push(theState.stateGrowth);
trace(globalVariablesArray[0]); // traces 0
theState.stateGrowth--;
trace(globalVariablesArray[0]); // still traces 0
Is there anyway to make it so that globalVariablesArray[0] always contains the 'new' value of theState.stateGrowth, even if it changes? In other words, store the property itself in the array, not just the value of it?
I wanted a sprite to move round on the screen when a play button was pushed. I have a left and a right button which store strings "left" or "right" into the next positions of an empty array called history.
When i push the play button i want i want the sprite to move either left or right according to what commands are in the array. My code just seems to play one single command and then stops when i hit play again it just repeats the same command.
Is there any way to make it play through all commands in the array one after another?
Here's the loop that i was trying to use.
