ActionScript 3.0 :: Scroll Pane For Multi Gallery Category Buttons
Aug 25, 2009
I am building a photo gallery in which the images are loaded into a frame_mc and the thumbs are loaded into a movieclip called thumbLoader. The gallery is going to have several categories, every category has its own button and is found on a separate keyframe on the main timeline. When I click the button of a specific category it goes to the appropriate category/gallery. I have a questions:I want to create a horizontal scroll pane for the category buttons but I really do not know the code. For a start, I know I'm going to make the buttons as movie clips, and the scroll pane has to scroll those movie clips. I want to have 2 direction buttons, one that scrolls the category buttons to the right, and the other one to the left.
I know you can use the mouse wheel to scroll through text in the flash componenet scroll pane, but is there a way to set it up to work with the code I have posted below?
fscommand("allowscale", "false"); bar.useHandCursor = dragger.useHandCursor=false; space = 5;[code].....
scroll pane loads scroll bars for the movie clip as soon as it loads the movie clip, so there is no scroll bars the movies height and width are one, but after its loaded it changes its size to bigger than the scroll pane, but the scroll bars dont show up because of the size of the movie clip when it was first loaded, can anyone help?
someone told me you cant have the page scroll up and down , but i just seen a template that has it URL...Any idea on how i would put that into my work? Is there a tutorial , or something im missing ?
I have a scroll pane component that I dynamically add movie clip objects too (Which are actually pictures).However when I dynamically add the movie clip objects to the scroll pane the scroll bars don't appear.I have both scroll bars set to auto and I even tried adding in an event listener to update the scroll pane...
Here is my code
Code:
public function Main() { scrollPane.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,updateScrollPane); }
[code]....
Like I said the scroll bars don't get updated and in fact the event for the scroll pane, IE updateScrollPane() never actually gets called!!!
I'm using Flash CS5 with AS2 .. I've a scrollpane with vertical scrollbars is there a way with which I can customize the design assets of this scrollbars?
I am looking to make a flash 'gallery' in which you would use buttons to scroll through the images, much like this: [URL] Only using buttons to scroll, instead of the mouse position.
I am trying to create a scroll pane for my movieclip which will hold 10 dynamic text fields.But unfortunately I am facing 2 problems.
1.I am unable to see the scroll bar for the scroll pane.
2. And also the scroll pane became transparent.
Here is my code
scrollPane = new ScrollPane(); scrollPane.source = myMovieclip; scrollPane.setSize = (200,200)//which is less than the height of my Movieclip addChild(scrollPane);
I have been looking for an app or something to make a scrollable window for a site I am working on and realised Flash CS4 has a Scroll Pane, Watched one to two tutorials and for some reason they are all CS3 but I think I can work round that but have one question. I am making the background transparent as all I want to display is scrollable text but can I colour the scroll bar itself? I don't want it the gray and white, I would like it coloured or better still semi transparent, glass effect looking.
Im trying to figure out if there is a way to manually scroll a scrollpane externally in flash. i have the scrollpane loading a long page of text and then have links to various parts in the text. for now i tried to change the y position of the movieclip being loaded but it just cuts off the top portion. is there a method to make it scroll to a certain spot?
I am making an application, where i have load all the thumnails at once and the by clicking on any of them will load a full image at right. I am done with all this, but i want the thumnails have vertical scroll bar, as the thumnails a large in numbers so i want them to scroll vertically. Now i don't know how to add a scroll bar to it, or either use it in scroll pane or list.
I have a movieclip that loads a scrollpane onto the stage. In that scroll pane I have some dynamic text boxes and some buttons. I cannot figure out how to reference those buttons or text boxes. For example, the instance name of the scroll pane is TAQ_Score then the content loaded into the scroll pane is TAQ_Score_Sheet. Then the instance name of the text box is TAQ_Score_Name.
So I assume the reference should be something like: TAQ_Score.TAQ_Score_Sheet.TAQ_Score_Name.text = MyVariable;This reference works fine outside of the scrollpane, but not when I put it into the scrollpane.
I used the ScrollPane Component feature and put in a movieclip inside. The movieclip has an icon (in this case I made it a moveclip). I want to drag this icon outside of it. But for some reason the ScrollPane has some time of mask on it so when I try to drag it stays within the constraints of my ScrollPane instance. Is there a way to dynamically drag/drop into another movie clip and have it permantly in that movie clip so I could play it in another location under the same instance?
I added a scroll pane or two via the components inspector for my flash website. I know how to add content to the scroll pane (rename contentpath to that of new movie). My question: Does that mean that scroll panes load dynamically ie. that they are only called for when you press a button to call that specific page which has the scroll pane and does that mean it would save you filesize on your.SWF?
Why is it that the scroller is on the right side when I use the component ScrollPane ? I want it on the left side -Much more logocal when the text is in english. How can I customize it? I cant use the UIScrollBar - makes problems when I load it from txt file and then load the SWF to anouther file so I decided to use the scrollPane.
I'm using a scroll pane component to contain a horizontally scrolling timeline. I'm also setting up a print function, which has worked fine for me in the past (i.e., sans scroll pane). However I find that with the scroll pane, it only wants to print the elements of the scroll pane and not the contents. Is there a simple workaround or other solution for this?
I am having a little trouble adding my pics to the scroll pane. I can get my captions to load, although they are all stacked on top of one another. Tracing the thumbPic variable gives for example: /gallery/trucks/tn/action_1.jpg but my attempts to add the image doesn't seem work.
I'm having trouble with the scroll pane component in flash...becuase my portfolio images are quite large I wanted to put them into a scrollpane to easily view the whole thing. the problem is that when I dynamically load them, there is a delay everytime I click on the "next" button to view the next image.
I'm searched and searched and tested this, but I can't seem to get a simple scroll pane to work correctly. I have a bare-bones file, with dummy text here:[URL]..
Can someone download this and put the dummy text inside a scrollpane for me (using the ruler guidelines as a guide)? I'll even send you $10 via PayPal if you can get the text to look right inside the scrollpane...
I can't believe I have to resort to this, but I'm about to pull my hair out,
I have implemented a scroll pane component and content of it is a layout of images which are buttons.Scroll pane name is "mc_pane2"Content class is "MyContent"And the button's instance name is "FloraLytell_btn" (It is essensially an mc with TweenLite code in it for roll over and roll out effects) am not able to figure out what would be a code to access a button inside the scroll pane. Below is what I have tried and it doesn't work.
mc_pane2.MyContent.FloraLytell_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_floralytellPopUp); function onClick_floralytellPopUp(event:MouseEvent) :void {
I am getting the following error message: "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at fl.containers::ScrollPane/endDrag()"
The problem occurs when I like this: I click a button on the Main Frame which takes me to frame #2. I go back to the Main Frame and then come back to the frame #2. When I go to Frame #2. I get the error message. I suspect the problem is occurring because I am not emptying the "scrollPane_1" component on exit. In the code below scrollPane_1 is a scroll pane component. This is occurring on all pages that I have the scroll pane on. Also the scroll pane component is on stage and has an instance name of "scrollPane_1".
This is an Air for iOS file. Here's the code. stop(); scrollPane_1.source= myText_1; scrollPane_1.setSize(600,585); bnt_home_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bnt_Goto_home_1); function bnt_Goto_home_1(event:MouseEvent):void { [Code] .....
I'm trying to populate a scroll pane dynamically with a moveclip but it isn't working. I can add an image with loadMovie, but attachMove isn't doing anything. The same thing works to a moveclip manually added to the workspace, but not on my dynamic scroll page.
ActionScript Code: for (var i = 0; i<clipArrowArray.length; ++i) { var clip:MovieClip = scrollpane.content.pane_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("clip"+i+"_mc", i);
