I want to add in a menu bar at the bottom of the gallery. Meaning to say, all the photos that load up from the XML will be behind the menu bar. I tried with creating a new layer on top of every other things (inserted a rectangle box for testing), but the photos for the gallery comes infront of my rectangle box.

I am building a full screen image gallery. I would like to have a thumbnail scroller menu at the bottom. As the user mouse overs a particular thumbnail, the image will appear fullscreen behind the thumbnail menu. I would like it so that the image appeared immediately as the user mouses over (i.e. the image is somehow already loaded in) as opposed to each image being loaded as the cursor is rolled over.
There are several images, so loading them all prior to running the application really isn;t an option. How could this be achieved? Are there any tips/tricks that can be used?
what i'm referring to is the way in which the thumbs and menu items stay at the bottom & top no matter what size the window is resized to.. and the its only the big images that are resized...

I am trying to make a photo gallery with a scrolling menu at the bottom. I have made both a photo gallery and a scrolling menu with tutorials but I can't figure out how to combine them so that they work. I've tried for quite a while now and I think that the problem comes from the scrolling menu which requires that I put all of the symbols I'm using into one symbol called panel. Is there any way to combine the code without completely rewriting it?
Here is the code for the photo gallery:
PHP Code:
this.onLoad=function(){
loadMovie("image1.jpg", images_mc);

I'm trying to make a Image Gallery for my website by myself. However, although I can read ActionScript rather well, when it comes to writing it myself I tend to hit massive walls. Anyway I've looked at many tutorials and guides and all kinds of stuff but I still can't figure out how to get the coding to do what I want it to do. It isn't a bug because I can't get the foundations of the code down.
What I am envisioning is a initial main menu with several different selections (I.E. 3D models, 2D drawings, doodles, ect. ect. ect.) and when you click one it changes to that specific gallery. The way I thought to do it was using OOP to make a base GalleryEngine class and then implement it for the Main Menu and Image Galleries. I realize that I could do all this in flash but I think if I can get the framework of the code down that it will be easier to modify and switch out images and whatnot.

I'm having an issue with using a hitTest to make a thumb menu from an image gallery I'm working with move up and down. Basically I need to use a hitTest because there is a conflict with the other rollover functions in the menu itself that prevents me from using a simple onRollOver function. All I want to do is hide the menu until the mouse rolls over it then I want it to pop up then on roll out hide itself again. The gallery is part of a larger site that loads the gallery into the index page and has a full screen function so it needs to stay at the absolute bottom of the page just above the footer at all times. Here is the code I'm working with but think I'm over complicating it.

I have created this site with a expanding / collapsin menu. When a user selects a menu e.g. "hammers" then the menu is loaded and show the submenues. When the users closes the menu by moving the mouse away from the area the menu collapses. If the user expands the menu again the menu should have remember the last visit menu and show the menu.

View 12 RepliesWhat I want to do is to make a gallery based on the tutorial gallery here (thumbs), but I want the user to be able to choose different galleries from within the movie. I figured that I could make a loop to cycle through the galleries, then nest another loop inside it to cycle through the pics, captions and thumbs. While I wrote, I constantly tested the output with trace commands, but when I tried nesting the loop I lost all output.. I'm pretty new to both Flash and Actionscript, so if theres an obvious solution I havent been able to see it.. This is my temp XML file:

View 14 RepliesI've made a gallery slideshow before but wasn't as intuitive looking back at it now and I want to start fresh on this new project. I would like to convert a jQuery lightbox style gallery into a flash XML based AS3 image gallery with categories. I don't want to code the FLA, I want separate AS files.
This is a school project for my website. I would use jQuery and I have more experience with it but this project needs a flash component. I'm just not sure where to start and looking for some advice on how and where I could find resources. I want it to be minimal as I can make it;
- 8 thumbnails to a "page/section" with more flowed into page 2 or 3 etc. (or a srcoller)
- a few buttons for categories
- images fading in full size with a description when hovered over and a close button
- preloader (simple bar)
Esentially something like this > http:[url].........works which is using http:[url].... for the thumbnails. That might be ambitious but I'd suffice with a simple fade effect.I've downloaded some galleries out there but most of the code is messy or outdated.http:[url]... this is alright, but all the code is done in the FLA. I might break it into AS files but it depends.
In my "actions" layer I have a function that loads a gallery of a external file called gallery.swf. The swf loads successfully but I cant remove that. The only way to remove is to call removeChild(mLoader.content); I noticed that the movies loads without addChild.
But sometimes also calling removeChild(mLoader.content) the content of mLoader is not removed and still appears in the stage.

I have a flash site that I'm working with that has an xml photo gallery as one of it's menu items. the photo gallery has three pages, all three containing thumbnail images that once clicked, load the larger image. The larger image dissolves in covering the page with the image. Once you click the larger image it dissolves out returning you to the gallery.
What I want to to do is to change the first page of this gallery to a video gallery, or player, leaving the other two galleries as image galleries. I tried simply replacing the images listed in the xml document to flv files and the flv file does not load. I simply want to know what it is I need to do in order to change this one page so that I can embed videos on it.
I've attached the Action script that loads the xml gallery in .txt format
i am trying to put some things together following the tutorials on this site. I did the tutorial 'Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash'and I followed it step by step and uploaded it with all the necessary files onto my remote server (xml file, Gallery folder, fla, swf, and html) - however, when I test the movie with flash, it seems to work fine (except the description test, my question to that later), but when I test it online it shows only the first image (but displays the correct number of images in the gallery); even when clicking the next button, it keeps loading the first image the first image. In other galleries (I use the structure for multiple galleries for my portfolio) the first image never loads at all.
Also, about the description text, in between the <caption> and </caption>, can I use <strong> and <em> and <br /> to change the appearance of my text? All it says is 'null'.If you want to look at what I mean check out my portfolio in the making. The problem with the first image displaying only is under 'paintings' and both the projects in 'design - packaging'. The second problem (no picture loading at all) is on some of the buttons in 'design - identity' (where I have not changed the description text of the tutorial yet).
Again,
Basically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:
<mx:Script>

have a question about loading new photos into a already populated image gallery.So I have my gallery set up so first loads my stage pics. What I would now like to do is load different set of images via the click of a button.So for example the loaded gallery already has all thumbs loaded and the user can click on them to view the full size image. next instead of the user having to close this gallery to allow a new gallery to open with a different set of pictures I would like to have a button. This button will unload the existing thumbs from the gallery and load in new ones.

View 2 RepliesThis has lost me already about 30 minutes of my work time. The panel decided to make itself extra tall, so I can't see the bottom of the panel. I see no way to vertically resize the panel. The only way that I think you can do that is to click and drag the bottom of the panel. The bottom of the panel is below the bottom of the screen even though I've dragged the panel up as high as it can go. How do I resize it?
