I'm creating a moodboard application where the user can dynamically load an image onto the stage by pressing a thumb of the image in a menu item. I have most of that working but what I would like to know is that, if there is a way the user can interactively scale/transform the image when it is on the stage in the swf file?
View 2 RepliesI'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 been working on a Flash movie that loads variable data from an external XML file and dynamically displays the item names in a menu which may then be clicked to display other dynamically-loaded content that corresponds to the menu item that was clicked. I have now come to a standstill in the project as there is something I'd like to achieve but simply cannot work out how. This is my first attempt at working with XML in Flash and one of my early attempts at using variables. What I'm trying to achieve is; once the user has viewed the item's content, they can simply click "next" and "previous" buttons to display all of the content for the next or previous items in the XML document.
I know it probably sounds simple and I'm sure some of you could achieve this in 5 minutes (!) but I can't get my head around some of the coding. I assume previousSibling and nextSibling would come into play here as well as some sort of functions which access arrays of data for the previous and next items, but I'm just not sure how to correctly put these things to use. Rather than post my code and example images of the stage up here on the forums, I've created an html page here: [URL]
I have a custom item renderer that displays images:
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{friends.friend}" id="friendsGrid" width="240" rowCount="3" variableRowHeight="true" headerHeight="0"
horizontalCenter="true" backgroundAlpha="0" borderThickness="0"

I have a menu that is driven by AS3 and XML, I am trying to simply put a background image behind the menu but when I import a jpg and place onto the stage the background is always in front of the menu? The menu is an external AS file and is not on the timeline. What I can do to get the image to sir behind the menu?

View 1 RepliesI have an image (.jpg file) in the library and I want to instantiate it dynamically through timeline code and then add it to stage.

View 9 Repliesi have a menu which has 10 items. there are sub menus for each of them. the submenus total to 40 items. and when i click on ech of these submenus, then i need an image to appear on a part of the stage. Now, I need the same effect for ech of the image. Say when i click on the 1st submenu of the 1st main menu, the image of an apple comes from the bottom the stage to the centre of the stage.
Now when I click on any other submenu - say 1st submenu of the 3rd main menu, this apple image should go off the stage from the top and an image of mango should appear from the bottom of the stage to the centre of the stage (same as how apple image appeared). So, basically, i need any image to come from the bottom of the stage to centre of the screen and whn a diff image is calld, the image on the screen shld go off frm centre to the top.

View 2 Repliesa) scrollable menu where my multiple image of png will load into
b) multiple (could also be one image) of png images that will gradually appear into the same folder where my .fla file is.
c) a layer of frame (more of a window, it's scrollable upwards & downwards) - the place for my original sized png image to appear
d) dropdown menu - that will contain form1, form2, form3 [form1, form2, form 3 will represent which part of the png image willl be shown in (b): form1 = top, form2 = middle, form3 = bottom]
1) a png image (possible that the png image will come in multiple) will load into my flash movie automatically, specifically all of them will load on a scrollable menu one after another, side by side with the png image size reduced to fit into the menu.
2) once i click one of the png image on the menu, the image will appear beneath its [like what i've explained in (c)]. this image is scrollable only upwards & downwards within the windowframe, and it should be the original size (not the reduced one to be fit into the menu)
3)below, there's a dropdown menu [i've explained in (d)] that will be chosen from, let's say form1 is chosen. the window where the scrollable png image is, will show the part where i set form1 is for.
The thumbs load on a grid and when I click on the thumb they load in the loader. Now I am having trouble removing them. The tutorial has the remove function on the loaded large image so when you click that it removes itself. I would like so that when you click on the a thumb the current image will unload and the thumb that is clicked on will load but can't figure out how to get it to do that. I figured I'd just add a CLICK listener for the "removeFull" function to the "callFull" function but I think it cancels itself out.
Here is the code I am using: (the code to load and unload is toward the bottom)
Code:
var columns:Number = 2;
var my_x:Number = 25;
var my_y:Number = 75;
var my_thumb_width:Number = 65;

I found some code to create an XML based Flash gallery (I have lots of XML experience, not so much flash!) and modified it some to make the images show up exactly where I want them to on the stage. The problem I can't figure out is how to make the current image unload and the thumb that is clicked on load. Right now, the images just stack up on top of one another. I've searched all over to find a solution, but so far nothing I tried has worked. I haven't even gotten around to adding tweens to the gallery yet!

I have to load image dynamicly using actionscript 3.0, PHP and Mysql. I have the image path in the database. Now i have to show the image in flash.
View 3 RepliesI wanted to load image from a folder. I wanted to load the last 30 images to the stage. How can I do it?
ActionScript Code:
var l:Loader;
var r:URLRequest;
var loc:String = 'cards/card%.png';
function loadCardNum(n:int):void {
l = new Loader();
r = new URLRequest(loc.replace('%',n));
trace("Will load card from: "+loc.replace('%',n));
Currently the code I'm using can only load picture with the file name starting from 0. And it will stop loading the image if there is any image missing between the 30 images. How can I make it load from the last 30 images uploaded and enable to continue load in the images if there is any image missing in between? I have the limit of 30 set on somewhere else. Where it will stop loading after it reached 30.

I'm all done working on my gallery for my website.I have one last question: Now that I have a working thumb gallery, when I look at my scene there is no main image that pops up until you click on one of the thumbs.Is there a simple action script I can add so that when the person opens or load the page the very first image of my thumbs can pop up automatically?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a picture gallery.. I can arrange the thumbs in the screen and when I click to one of them, it shows the bigger picture. But the problem is, I want the thumb to do something when the mouse is over it.

When I use that tweenmax.to(this.....) part, all the thumbs act like one. I tried to change this to thumbs but I didn't work. How to convert all the thumbs to an individual image?
I'm looking to do a sliding image menu like this one: [URL]. I can do this using tweening but it is not as smooth as using actionscript.

View 2 RepliesI am implementing drag and drop from a DataGrid onto a List in a Flex 3 AIR application. I would like to have the drag image be a photo (jpg) referenced by a String field in the data grid item, named 'imagePath'. I'm having trouble getting the image to show up during dragging. I have triple checked that it is not because of an invalid path to the image. I have tried Image's source() and load() methods in every way I can think of. I am calling this method 'dragCurrentToList(event)' on a mouseDown event.[code]This works perfectly if I set the image source to the following bindable variable but I don't want to hardcode the image name.[code]

I am attempting to load a dynamically generated image into flash (AS 2.0) using loadMovie.
The image is being generated by a php script on the server in real time using the following php code:
[Code]......
If I call the php script directly, the image displays correctly. If I embed it in html via an image tag it also works correctly. However I can't get flash to load it.
I am wondering if it is because the url I am trying to load has a .php in it. I am wondering if flash thinks it is a .php page, instead of an image.
(btw, I have fully debugged everything else I can think of. The above actionscript works if I replace the url with the url of a static image. I also traced out the url being generated and tested to make sure that the url that the script is generating is correct)
