ActionScript 3.0 :: UIloader With Autoresize Is Pixelating Loaded Images On Different Resolutions?
Jul 1, 2010
My publish settings are Flash Player 9 with Bottom up Load order, and the Size of the stage has been set to 900x561.The HTML is published to load the SWF file as 100%x100% Additionally I added the following to the HTML Headers to disable scrollbars:
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
<!--
body {overflow:hidden}
-->
</STYLE>
I writing the movie with AS3, and I am building a 4 image, gallery.I have 4 Adobe UIloader components that are side by side and have arrows that allow you to browse the images back and forth. The UIloader is configured to auto-resize the images that it loads.The UI Loader Size Is:
W: 175.0
H: 264.0
I am using an XML file to hold image info and I use an URLLoader to import the data into an array which is then feed to the UIloader to load via URLRequest().
Here is my AS:
// Stop the timeline
stop();
// Import functions
[code]....
I first created an image that is the exact dimensions of the URLLoader and it looks OK but somewhat pixelated 1024x768 but on larger resolutions the images are very pixelated. So I created a picture that was 1024 x 1542 and again this looks OK on larger resolutions but is horrible on smaller resolutions.

Please help I've been researching this topic for like 2 days straight and it is driving me insane because I can't seem to find a specific answer for what I'm trying to achieve and I know it can be done because I've seen end results on the web. Here is what I'm doing:
1. I created a simple museum gallery with 3 portraits hanging on the wall
2. Inside the museum portraits I created 3 different uiLoaders with a black background
3. I gave all 3 uiLoaders their own unique movieClip names
3. Inside each uiLoader will be a loaded external image via a URL
4. I DO NOT want to resize the uiLoaders - I want to scale the external images proportionately to fit inside the entire contents of the uiLoaders and still remain centered
URL...As you can see currently the 3 random external images are loaded perfectly inside the uiLoaders but you see black background and I want the photos to fit the entire contents of the uiLoaders yet still remain proportionate.[code]

I am building a site in Flash cs4 and I'm a the part where i want to add my photos so I have inserted a UIloader to load my images and I have set the UIloader to pull from the images folder and it just keeps giving me an error message cant find images which I cant understand why cause the Fla file is in the same folder as the images,here's the part I really cant understand if I rename the images without numbers then it finds a couple of them???? I have always done it this way in the older versions and I know it works in the new version I have spent hours trying to find out why and have asked many people and they cant tell me why.

I've got a flash page where a uiloader uses 10 different images. Wondering if I can assign a url to each image so that when they load, the viewer could click to follow the link.

I am using ActionScript 3 in Flash to load images into a UILoader. There is a bay of thumbnail images, which are all movie clips. When one of these movie clips is clicked, AS3 calls a larger image to display in the UILoader. All of these images are narrower than the UILoader, some very much so, and they all have different widths for the most part.I would very much like for these images to be centered within the UILoader and (obviously) am unsure of how to go about doing it. If it would be possible for them to be both horizontally and vertically centered, that would be ideal, as they are also of varying heights.

I'm working in flash Cs4 and I just learned cash and I'm wondering if there's a way to use the Uiloader to load multiple images and have them change every couple of secondes like msn or actionvillage. This is my code so far:
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
var imageNumber:Number = 1
function checkNumber():void
[code]....
I have buttons below my uiloader that changes the images when you click on the manually but when you don't click on the arrows I would like the images to change automatically.

I am creating a very simple gallery in Flash CS5 (I'm not sure which AS, possibly 3.0? how do I check this?) and everything works great in Flash when I test the movie. The gallery has six thumbnails that when clicked bring up a larger image above. However, when I import this into Dreamweaver, the thumbnails appear and have the invisible buttons but the larger image does not come up when the thumbnails are clicked on.
As I mentioned before, I have a very brief knowledge of Flash. I was wondering if this is a naming error on my part? Or if it possibly had to do with the trace statement (I'm not exactly sure of the purpose of these besides showing up in the output panel--). I have a feeling that the tutorial I was watching to create this did not provide all of the information needed, but then again, how would I know?
I've included my AS, but I wasn't sure how to attach my .fla file--I saw other people including links, but wasn't sure how that was done.

I have UILoader that loads images 427x240, then I thought to load an external swf dimensions 427x273. So I resized UILoader to height 273, now the images on load are positioned vertical middle, gap top and bottom, i need this to be absolute Top. How do I set UILoader loaded content to position Top?

I am trying to make a xml based portfolio in Flash CS5. I want to use a UILoader to load external images, but I want the images to have a drop shadow when displayed. I tried saving the image with a drop shadow in Photoshop with a .png format. When it was uploaded the image didn't show the drop shadow and had jaggy edges. Normally I use a filter in Flash but the option isn't available for the UILoader object. if there is a way my images can be displayed with a drop shadow, otherwise I will do without.

I have a UI loader that loads images (arabic file names) from folder based on some user input. The images loads fine when i'm opening the SWF file, but when it's on an HTML page, the files' names are encoded some how and then not loaded. When I write the full path of an image in the browser's address bar, the image opens fine. Is there away I can keep the file names in arabic, and make them load when the swf object in an HTML page?

I'm currently developing a Flash website that incorporates an flv player. The controls on the player's skin are all vectors. I've set it up so that when you hit fullscreen on the player controls a fullScreenSourceRect is created which is working great. However when the the player is full screen, the once crisp vectors are now pixelated as if they were a bitmap.

I want to fade in a background with a alpha tween after it's loaded in by an UILoader. Everything seems to be working great when I do a Test Movie (in Flash) or view it in IE. However, I encounter a problem when viewing in Firefox. Somehow the alpha does'nt come up to 1(100%). Sometimes my background image is barely visable and sometimes it's at ~90%. It seems to be completely random.
Quote:
//load random background (1 to 10)
var randomNumber:Number=Math.ceil(Math.random()*10);
trace(randomNumber);
[code]....
I've tried increasing the final value (Regular.easeOut,0,1,2,true) and this will change something but doesn't solve the problem. I've also tried instead of fading in the background to fade out a overlaying vectorshape, but same result.Is it possible it has something to do with other script/my background img size/??.

I have 3 buttons (and 3 .swf videos).Each button makes the main timeline go to a specific frame and stop.Each Frame tells the UILoader to load a different assigned .swf video (source parameter).
Problem: when playing the project's .swf in the Flash Player, "VISUALLY" the videos properly switch,but the Audio continues, so the Audio for all 3 videos are playing simultaneously.How do I get the current video's Audio to stop when the new video is loaded ?I experimented with enabled = false;"(and other methods) between the changing videos .
switch(eventMLR.target.name) ...

I'm building videochat functionality for a site, using Wowza as the streaming server. I've noticed that when I use the chat on a page hosted on another machine (EC2 in this case) it pixelates, but when I just view a local html file referencing a local copy of the player, there's no problem. I'm not sure why, because even the local copy of the player is sending an outgoing video stream and reading another stream from the streaming server. The only differences between the perfect quality/annoyingly pixelated versions are:
The actual page is hosted locally/nonlocally The .swf file is hosted locally/nonlocally. Does anyone know if downloading the flash player degrades the streams that play in it? And if so, is there any way to get around this?

I've recently started developing a big project in flash. I'm trying to tackle the resolution issue at the start, but not sure what to do. The way I see it, the only way to go is to make something for default resolutions such as 1028*768. Other then that there isn't much to do.
A browser stats site showed that something like 50-60% have that res, but other users have different resolutions. I dont want my users to see the game as too big or too small.

I'm trying to make my movie look good on all screen resolutions and when the browser is resized. I want to center my movie, and have it stay in the center when resizing the browser, and I can do this to an extent. I usually use the liquid center template in Dreamweaver, like so - [URL]. However, this time I want a big movie to stay in the center like this - [URL], I've ended up with this - [URL].

I searched forums and googled and not found anything on how to detect the Webcam supported resolutions in flash.The whole issue stems from the issue when I use Camera.getCamera() (only have one attached to my laptop) I'm always getting different values for camera.height and camera.width. Also some 720p cams have different aspect ratio then the old cameras.Is there possible to detect somehow what's the largets resolution is supported by a webcam? Or all possible resolutions supported?

A Flex project exported as a Projector, showing fullscreen. The project has a background and several dots which each represent a "Location". These locations are fetched from an XML file and have their position set in percentages. The location in pixels is calculated (this works as it should) by the width and height of the Application. The dots are placed correctly. The background is a JPG with a resolution of 1280*1024. At this moment, the background is set on a Canvas with backgroundSize = auto. This places the image in the center without stretching it. Stretching results in ugly, pixelated images and tears the proportions apart.
Problem When we view the project on 2 different resolutions (1 = 1280*1024; 2 = 1024*768), the dots are in the good position, the background image is sharp. But - because of the background having the same resolution as 1, the background isn't fully shown in resolution 2 (because it isn't stretched. A logic result. That's why I tried stretching the background. The results:

I am trying to make a product demo in flash. I have 3 products with a few screenshots for each that link to 30 sec flash recordings of that particular product's features.I used WINK for recording these 30 second clips. I want to call them from a MAIN flash file as external swfs to cut down the load time. Wink renders them very very small. Does anyone know how I can make them a certain size once brought into my MAIN flash demo? Say 600px X 400px.

who has ever messed around with this part of AS3 I've run into an issue with detecting the resolution of the webcams hooked up to the individual machines.
Now while the documentation on the Camera-class says that camera.height and camera.width are readable properties of that camera and also uses them as a way to find the camera's resolution in the examples, it just doesn't work that way on my end. No matter what webcam and what PC I try to use for this, it always tells me that my webcam has the dimensions of 160x120 pixels.
This is very frustrating to me since it forces me to impose a dialogbox onto the - possibly not too tech-savvy - user where they can chose a resolution that is closest to their webcam's native resolution.
I've looked around for a solution to this and came up totally dry. As IQAndreas approached me regarding this because of a twitteruser asking for the same thing, I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one having this issue.

I have made a 1000 x 600 (px) swf movie for a web and I embedded it in HTML. Now the problem is for some screen resolutions above 1024 x 768, the web is aligned to top left. I tried to put it in a div which aligned to center, then scrolling happens.
