I don't know why, but this has always been a problem for me. What is the best way to cross fade images in an array? Say I have 10 image and I want them to fade over each other and just loop through the array indefinitely (also taking the preload into consideration).
View 2 RepliesWhat I've done is taken a Cross Fade and tried to mix in some dynamic image loading using some script posted by Claudio elsewhere on this forum (Cheers!!).However, nothing seems to happen????take a look at the script and offer a fix??

I am trying to do simultaneous cross fade of images in a slideshow. The script here seems to have a very elegant method for cross-fading movieclips: [URL] However, I cannot get this script to work for images Anyone have a clue as to how to make this work with images? Let's say I have done: this.createEmptyMovieClip("photo", 200) and done a loadmovie of an iamge into the the MC. Here is the actionscript that I want to alter so that it will cross fade the iamges...

I'm current trying to create a slideshow with images loaded externally, and then crossfading between one another.I've achieved how to load the images one after another, but however I'm having problems with achieving a crossfade.Do I need to have 2 seperate image loaders? Because I do not want to have the first image fade out, showing the background for even a minute of a second before the second one fades in.
View 2 RepliesI have a loader with the array function. When you click on different buttons on top of the loader, images and text load into the loaders. I would like the images and text to fade in and out instead of just flashing.

I'm trying to cross fade between two frames using action script. I can fade a frame out with the following script but I can't figure out the cross fade part.
/* Fade Out Movie Clip
Fades out the symbol instance by decreasing its alpha property within an ENTER_FRAME event until it is invisible.
Instructions:
1. To change the speed at which the symbol instance fades out, change the 0.01 value below (valid values are in the range 0.0 - 1.0). Higher values cause faster fade out.
2. The '-=' operator is a shortcut to typing 'Spread1.alpha = Spread1.alpha - 0.1'.
3. Because the animation uses an ENTER_FRAME event, it progresses only when the playhead moves to a new frame, and the speed of the animation is also affected by the frame rate of the FLA file.
Spread1.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_FadeSymbolOut);
Spread1.alpha = 1;
function fl_FadeSymbolOut(event:Event)

The AS3 script below is a cross-fade that is time-based with no user control. How do I keep the cross fade and control it with the "before" and "after" buttons? And with the API opening in its "before" state? And for users to be able to click and/or hover between the two. The link to what I'm trying to set up is:
http:[url].....The code is:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;[code].....
I am trying to edit the code from o that the effect will look more like a cross-fade. So what I am trying to do is have the next image pre-load, the previous image alpha fade from 100-0, while the new one fades from 0-100

As you can see, right now when you click each button the respective background image comes up. Now what i need is for them to crossfade, not switch. And preferably at a variable speed. Here is the (simple and obvious) actionscript so far:
stop();
button1.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(1);
}

Each button is labeled button1, button2 etc. and each image has an instance name of simply "1", "2" etc....Can anyone help me and let me know what the actionscript would be for them to crossfade ? keeping in mind that the user might click button 1 then 4 then 2 then 5, meaning they cannot simply crossfade in order.
I'm trying to do a simple image gallery with a previous and next button. I have it working nicely with a little crossfade, however I know that I need to remove old instances of my class after they are done being used - I just don't know how to do it. Especially because I want to wait until the top image/instance is fully faded in before deleting the one below it and what if someone clicks the next/previous button before the image is fully faded in?
Here is my main movie:
[AS]
function nextImage(evt:Event):void{
currentImage ++;
currentImage = (currentImage < imageTotal) ? currentImage : 0;
addImage();
}function prevImage(evt:Event):void{

I'm trying to do a cross-fade effect for my gallery. To do that, I'm using two movieclips, one that holds the image currently displayed, and another one that holds the image that should be displayed next. When the coming image is loaded, the cross-fade effect should happen, the container that holds the image that was on stage should be cleared out, then the image in the other container should be displaced to the former container.
Here's my code so far:
function loadFirstImage():void {
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addFirstImage);
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(myImages[0].url));
currentImage = new MovieClip();

how to use if/else and setInterval statements on the cross fade slideshow. I am trying to edit the code to have the xml slideshow loop back to the first image and play continuously. I am ok following existing code, not great at writing/editing my own. I thought I needed to work within the nextImage function, and add a slideshow (); function. I haven't been able to get it right. Here is the code minus the xml loading part:

Im working on a project and I dont know how to even think through the problem, as I've only worked through Flash through AS3, and the following needs to be done completely in AS too.
I have two pieces of content - some flash video, and an mp3, both loaded dynamically with loaders etc. All this I think I have fairly well in hand. What I'd like to do make the 'hick-up' as these tracks loop, disappear by cross fading the video and mp3 across it self in the loop - if that makes any sense at all. I suspect that I'll have to delve into the timeline, but perhaps strangely, never done so.
is it possible to modify this script to make images load like a fade in/fade out slideshow. It works with buttons to action the transition I want, but I want a similar script to play a simple slideshow with same transitions.
stop();
this.pathToPics = "images/";
this.pArray = ["home1.jpg", "home2.jpg", "home3.jpg", "home4.jpg", "home5.jpg" ];

I would like to create a flash movie that loops through 11 dynamic images continually with a fade-in, fade-out each image.

View 44 RepliesI am looking for script to load images from a folder to the stage and have the images fade in then fade out. As the first one fades out I want the second one to fade in. My students currently have done this in the timeline using tweening, however they have multiple images and this gets to be very long and tedious. If it is possible to have a script to say "go get image 1 out of folder and fade it in then get image 2 out of folder and as image one fades out image 2 fades in.
If this has to be accomplished by making movie clips out of the impages and have the script get them from the library that is fine also. However my students need the effect now. I am an instructor at a college and I like to be able to show the students how to do what their designs support.
I have 2 images that need to fade in and fade out so after 5 seconds image1 slowly begins to fade out while image2 slowly begins to fade in. My first image does not fade in because on the start of the flash movie I want to directly see the first image. But when image2 is done (so the whole movie is almost done) and it's start fading out.... I get to see the background (just a black empty background) while I actually want to begin fading in image1 (so looping the 2 image constantly).
So how can I immediately see an image on the start of the movie and still getting a fading in effect of the first image when the movie is almost on its end (so during the fading out of the last image)?
I've always struggled with this for some reason, but say I have 5 images loading from XML. How would I make it so they would cross fade each other on an endless loop? I can make it so it gets to the end by loading them on top of each other and then fading each one out, but once I get to the end I'm lost.
View 1 RepliesI have a set of 50 PNG image slices (cross sections) of a brain that I would like to stack together to re-create a 3D object (the whole brain) that can be rotated, zoomed inside a webpage. I will need to create the 3D object? Can I use Adobe? What will the file format be for the completed 3D object, does it need to be .3DS? And what web programming language do i need to display this 3D object once I create it? Can I use javascript to code the webpage interactivity part (zoom, rotate in 3 axes)?

View 2 RepliesI am using Flash 8 - trying to get started by simply fading in/out using Alpha. I totally get on the first layer converting image to movie, inserting key frame and motion tween, selecting clip and changing alphato 0%. Where I am absolutely lost - is when it comes the second, third, fourth and fifth image. I have tried inserting new layers and repeating the steps - but for some reason 2-5 images do not transition like image one.
View 2 Repliesi need to do another one, exactly the same, but it will have a rolling picture (4) when 1 button is rolled over.
I can set it up to fade in when the mouse rolls over, but i am just wandering how to set it that i can make 4 images fade in after eachother after a space of about 3 seconds. If you need code i am more then happy to give what i have at the moment. i am assuming i will need a timer in there but i am not very good at AS3.0 so i do not know how to write it
so far using actionscript and xml a rotating banner of images what I am having trouble with is keeping one image as static so it shows up throughout the whole banner rotation of images. I need it to never disappear and be seen throughtout the fade in and out of images.
View 9 RepliesI have 5 pictures that I want to randomly fade in and out on a loop, the problem with this is that there's not really anything to trigger this action. An animated intro comes in on load (all done on the timeline) and on a frame named "home" it stops, this is when I want to run this piece of Actionscript. When a button is triggered here, the images are going to fade, and it goes to several full page menus (laid out on the timeline), when clicked again it goes back to "home".This is the closest I've gotten so far:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
