View 1 Repliesi am trying to add extra images to the photo gallery attached. I would have thought it is easy and it seems so. I add an extra image to the gallery. I publish it. The html file shows the extra image in the gallery but the swf doesnt. driving me crazy, cant work it out?
View 14 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:
[Code]...
I found this really neat photo gallery on flashkit but there is no support or readme included. Hoping one of you actionscript gurus can sort through the AS and how to size this thing.. the AS code does have comments but I am not a coder. I'd like to make the image window smaller and the overall movie smaller. 325x325 or so.
View 10 RepliesI used the Photo Gallery using xml and Flash tutorial and created a nice gallery with thumbnails I increased the size to accommodate a 800x533px size picture however when the images are imported they are distorted to a size that looks to be around 900x400px I am using flash 8.
View 1 Replies[URL] how to make a Flash Thumbnail Photo Gallery. I am designing a bigger photo gellery based on this code how do I have the photo gallery to list 2 rows of thumbs 5 accross and 2 rows. This code is the code that designs the thumbnail movie clip.
function thumbnails_fn(k) { thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth()); tlistener = new Object(); tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) { target_mc._x = hit_left._x+(target_mc._width+5)*k; target_mc.pictureValue = k; target_mc.onRelease = function() { p = this.pictureValue-1; nextImage(); }; target_mc.onRollOver = function() { this._alpha = 50; thumbNailScroller(); }; target_mc.onRollOut = function() { this._alpha = 100; }; }; image_mcl = new MovieClipLoader(); image_mcl.addListener(tlistener); image_mcl.loadClip(thumbnails[k], "thumbnail_mc.t"+k); }
I learned from great kirupa tutorial and implemented the thumbnail gallery in my site.If I open the site in browser Opera or Firefox (FP 8.0.0.447) i see only 1 thumbnail image - is it bug in Player? In IE 6 I have FP 7.0.19.0 and I can see all thumbnails in the navigation bar - also correct.
View 8 Repliesits for a photo gallery that I downlowded,the images fades in and out, but only start that when you click a button(timer).I'm trying to founf out where in the script I can change this, so that the photo's start automatically,rather than, on a button click.I have pasted the script below, is that ok, or would people rather a zip file of the files?

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,
I'm doing photo gallery and like to enlarge an image when I click on it with some animation like it's in flash (the picture slowly expands first by x-axis and after by y-axis and the space around the picture dims), that it scales to it's largest possible size to fit in screen, but it can be any other animation. I found some topics about this, but I don't want to use any 3rd-party plugin (including flash, drupal...) to do it. Maybe it can be somehow done by jQuery...

i want each image that opens up from the scrolling thumbnails below to have another set buttons relating to the main image. for instance:
[Code]...
numbers = buttons linked to another set of external images that are related to the big image. the problem is i don't know what controls the thumbnail/main image when i click on the scroller (i'm kinda lost in the code). so right now i have only one set of numbers regardless of which big image opens up.
I've built a flash photo gallery that pulls image urls from an external XML file. The gallery has different image catagories that load their own set of images.The user decided which catatgory they'd like to view by clicking an HTML button in the flash movies parent page...using javascript, this button click sends a variable to the root level of the flash movies with the new XML location...
Trouble is, onces the initial XML file is loaded, the movie has no need to refresh (and read the newly sent variable) ...*Unfortunately the catagory buttons MUST be outside the movie on the page...
I was just wondering if it would be possible to show video files with some modifications in photo gallery?

View 10 RepliesI have an XML photo gallery, that when it starts it has a loader for the photos. It always starts with the XML file determined sequence, which is fine, but what happens is that the tabs on the right hand side of the photo loader go astray while it is loading the first photo. If the first photo was loaded instantly this wouldnt be an issue.Is there a way that I can preload that first photo, so that it is in memory when the swf file reads the XML file, allowing the first photo to be instantly loaded ?Amongst other things, I tried embedding the photo in the swf file, but it didnt work...obviously I have no idea what to script...I also created another scene, prior to the main scene, to preload the photo.. but it didnt work either, again probably used useless script...Going further in detail, this is the main script:
Code:
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;
ZigoEngine.simpleSetup(Shortcuts, PennerEasing);

I have been searching for a particular photo gallery, and haven't got far. Here is an example of what I am looking for.

View 2 RepliesHow can i fix the ImageHolder (Movie Clip size) that holds the images loaded into it. At the moment I have sized the photos to the size I want, but if a photo is not that "Specific" size it will overlap my text next to it... How can I fix the size of this movie clip to show the images without it blowing out my design? I have sized all the images to: 230px x145px If they are not this size the design will not work, I need to fix the window to 230px x145px

View 5 RepliesI've searched the forums as well as other areas of the internet to find a solution to this issue I'm having. I've managed to gather bits and pieces here and there and they have kind of came together to get me further than I expected. I've basically went about my own little way of trying to make a photo gallery using php and flash. So far I've made more progress than I figured I would, but I have ran into a few issues and I fear I may have to start over entirely.
What I've done is pieced together some php code to read the contents of a directory, it then writes them to a php file and assigns them each a variable name and finally assigns the number of photos in the directory to a variable name, it looks like this once the script is ran[code]...
I am using the XML and Flash photogallery that Kirupa has in the tutorials [url]. I was wondering how I can:
a. make a second caption
b. make a caption with a link on it.
i need to make a photo gallery were i can just duplicate the folder"vacation_photos" and then rename it something else and not have to change the path on every freakin photo and button.
View 1 RepliesI have done a photo gallery using the following code. However, I need the first picture to appear as the movieclip is loaded. What shall I introduce to this script? Or what would I have to change?

myPhoto.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;

I want to make a dynamic photo gallery. The layout will be a scrollable bar at the bottom with thumbnails and then when you click one, a big version of the picture in the main window. Pretty simple layout. But! I want it to be dynamic in the sense that follows;
I have a txt file that contains the number of photos in the folder (at the moment, there are 5). Flash reads that number, and inputs that into a for statement, which then gets the filename of each of the 5 files (p0, p1, p2, etc) and slaps a .jpg on the end. Its like this so that i can add files to the folder, change the number in the text file, and be done (no site maintenance required).
Now comes the problem. I want to be able to, within the for statement, load those files AND be able to resize them. What i'm doing now is putting an instance of the gallery itself on the stage (just an empty movie clip), and in the for statement I am adding a "thumb" movie clip into that gallery movie clip, and loading the image into that. Visually:
Gallery_mc
--->thumb_mc
------->loaded image file.
The problem is that I can't resize them. I've tried using the loadercontentinfo stuff, but when i do that, it messes up my for loop somehow. I could always make all of my thumbnail files that size anyways, but I am also hoping to maybe implement my creation here in the future so that I can give it to others who aren't tech savvy and having them be able to use it without any difficulty. Here is the code:
Code:
//Create the URLLOader instance
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
//the data will come as URL-encoded variables
[code]....
I took out the loaderinfo stuff because it didnt work. As it stands, this version actually does sucessfully load the images, but doesnt do anything to resize them.
Like ordinally photo gallery, there is a big picture with some thumbs.
big picture = MC named gWindow
thumbs holder = MC named pics
thumbs = MC named p1, p2, p3...

I made a flash website for a non-profit organization and it needs to have a photo gallery inside of it. It needs to have 3 categories with about 20 pictures in each category; the pictures are of different sizes.
I'd like to make a gallery like this one: [URL] but I'm not sure how to do so while also having it be inside the main flash website also.
i download and try to modify a xml photo gallery from kirupa in this pagemake the buttons for "next" "back".... and one button that control the slide show, but i cant find how to activate the slide show and desactivate it.
View 1 Repliesso i wanna make a custom photo gallery for my work, and ive seen some that i like. however, i want to MAKE it myself and not download somebody's program that does it or whatever. i know i have the necessary knowledge to be able to follow a tutorial on it but i dont know how to do it myself, you know? anyways heres one that i like, if anybody knows of a tutorial that i can do this in please let me know. [URL] the important parts are that it needs to be updated with xml and have a scroller at the bottom with buttons, not a scrollbar.
