I'm trying to achieve a thumbnail gallery which basically reduces it number of columns (and increases number of rows) when the stage is being resized down.The columns number as default 5, but after resizing down the stage this number is calculated like this:[code]My question is how can I reorder the the columns and rows from the onStageResize function.[code]
View 4 RepliesI really like the thumbnail gallery for its simplicity and beauty. But I would like to ad or vertical scroller (I'm unable to find it here too, maybe I'm blind, just I'm more at the end of my seeking options) or a make a grid thumbnails, that will show 2 columns of thumbs and 5 pictures in each columns, then under the 2 columns i would like to ad a sort of arrow or button that if my gallery have more then 10 pictures it will go on the next thumbnail list. I'm not looking for any extra fading effects or special movements. Just would love to have a single thumbnail grid on side, with option to have lists of thumbnails by 10 if there is more then 10 pictures or so.
View 14 RepliesIs it possible to control the properties of 'advancedgridcolumns' in 'advanceddatagrid' mxml tag. For e.g. suppose the grid data provider has 3 different fields. Out of these 3 fields, one field is 'to_be_decided'. This field should not be displayed initially. Only the remaining 2 columns should be displayed (visible true) and the third column (one with data field as 'to_be_decided', visible flag will be false here ) should be hidden. It will be visible when some event like a button click or something is fired.
We can do this in action script coding by accessing individual columns of grid and taking appropriate actions. But will it be possible to do so in mxml? Is there some default property in grid that can be used here ?In mxml I can not access them individually in the grid (under tag) and hence I can not set the visible attributes individually for each of them. To add them one by one in 'columns' tags I would be required to know the data field in array collection and that I dont know. Only data field known is 'to_be_decided', rest two fields will vary time to time. Therefore even if I addd this one gridcolumn in 'columns' tag what about the other two?
Something like this :
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumns dataField='to_be_decided' visible=false>
<!-- How to add other 2 columns here ? -->
</mx:columns>

View 1 Repliesi have a grid of thumbnails (i loop through an xml file to create and display) this is working perfectly.I can trace out click commands on the MCs and load in an image just as you'd want to.I load the image into a thumbMC i created with some additional symbols in...Then i started thinking, it would be nice to have some kind of preloader for each image/thumbnail.I've implemented a MovieClipLoader and this is quite happily loading in the images and reporting when the load is complete, however i am completely unable to target my preloader symbols within this function, so am unable to either control the width of a loadbar, and also show/hide a loadLoop while the image loads.

How would I do the same thing but using a grid of thumbnails instead of the scroller? Can this grid be made to appear dynamically?
I'm trying to add a new row to dynamically created thumbnail grid. So far I've copied and edited a BrainGiants PhotoDrop menu script and managed to add an new row there with a nested for loop, but the thumbnails on the new row won't show right. There's just one thumb showing, I guess the rest of the thumbs are beneath the one showing..I'm messing up the for loop somehow, but can't get a hold of it.. I know all the thumbs load fine cus I've tried to load them to just one row and all of them showed up properly.

I have a question regarding the following tutorial and an older (inactive?) forum thread based around it:
Adding Thumbnails Tutorial XML and Flash Photo gallery with thumbnails in a grid (2006 - 2009)
I have multiple pages, several with thumbnail galleries, and several without. On the pages with the galleries, everything appears to render correctly. However, when I go from a gallery page to a page without a gallery, the thumbnails don't disappear. Instead, they remain on top of that page's content.
How do I get rid of the thumbnail gallery on non-gallery pages?
Code for the galleries:
Code:
cliparray = [];
columns = 3;
spacex = 100;

I notice that Flash makes changes to a stage size to the right. Is there a way of making the change so it expands out from a central point, i suppose like photoshop and similar. This has caused me some problems in the past when a client has asked for the site to be increased or reduced in width for example, and it can take a considerable ammount of time to move everything accordinly
View 3 RepliesI am creating a site with lots of big scrollable text-boxes in it. Each text-box object contained some text, and two buttons to scroll up/down with. The scroll buttons each had an event listener so the text moved when you clicked them.
These text-boxes were stacked on-top of each other with all except one having an alpha of 0. If I wanted to change which text-box is active I move it to the front and call a small TweenLite animation.
To the left (outside of the text-box objects) I have an object similar to a menu. It also has about 12 or so event-listeners (one for every button). This turns out cause A LOT of lag an it's very troublesome for my laptop to run it. What I need help with doing is to reduce the number of event-listeners on the stage and also the amount of text-boxes.
What I was thinking was to add the text-boxes using AS so I only have 1 on the stage at a time but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I also thought it might be better to just use 1 big event-listeners and from mouseX and mouseY decide which button the user is trying to push.
how to create a xml photo gallery but somehow all of them doesn�t discuss what i need to know.

View 1 RepliesI was looking for a way to make different grid layouts for xml loaded jpg thumbs, so I read and applied a lot of the tutorials and posts about galleries, xml, thumbs and grids around here. Some of the script I used comes from Kirupa's adding thumbs tutorial. I also applied the concept in Creating Grids with Flash/AS. The result is attached here. A lot of the parameters, like row and column numbers and scaling of the thumbs,spacing, alpha, rotation, etc, can be changed easily in the script. Also, the idea is that you could write different prototype functions to get different grid layouts effects.

I am working on my very first flash application and have found these forums very helpful so I have decided to post here since I'm stuck. I have taken the thumbnail gallery ikim posted on this thread and im trying to tweak it to my needs. When the thumbnails are loaded i would like to implement an onrelease function to tween the image to the middle of the screen, then slide to the right and increase the size. I have written the actionscript that will move the image. However, my problem is, i need to have the thumbnail slide from its original position to the middle of the screen. I thought i could do this by passing the parameters of _x, _y in the function and setting the motion accordingly. Being a newbie to AS, I am having trouble with getting ikim's gallery to accomodate this functionality. I tried using getproperty to get the _x, _y coordinates but this only returns the coordinates for the beginning position of the image and i need the ending position coordinates. I assumed I need to call getproperty at a later time, but I am not sure how to reference the thumbnails since it appears to me that they are being dynamically named and created the same.

how the stage can be resized dynamically?....if i load a jpg into a movieclip the stage should resize itself to the size of the image file.
View 5 RepliesSo I made a listener that moves around MCs when the stage is resized and it works great. However the script doesn't work until the stage is resized . Below is the script and I would really appreciate it if you could show me how to get the script to work regardless if the browser is resized.

I am having a small drama with an animation by actionscript. I want a box (that has been externally loaded into a holder mc) to come from the bottom left of the screen and then stop in the centre of the screen. So far so good with the code below
[Code]...
But this is a fullscreen website, if you change the size of the stage and then load the swf with the box in it, the box no longer stops in the middle but flies to the opposite corner of the stage.
This code creates a two arbitrary sprites, box and circle, and puts them on the stage. The circle is the child of the box.The purpose of the code is to enable the sprites to resize when the stage is resized. But the sprites only change size when the stage is smaller than their original size. When the stage is big enough, the sprites don't get any bigger than their original size. Throughout, they maintain their proportions.[code]
View 10 RepliesI just resized my stage, and I get output errors and my movie does not render correctly.
1 - Original movie size was 500x440. I built my entire Flash movie around this. Everything's working fine.
2 - Now I've decided to make the Flash more into a widescreen format, like 800x400. I went to stage properties and changed the dimensions.
3 - Upon hitting ctrl+enter, the Flash does not render correctly anymore and I get a slew of these kinds of errors in the output log: ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable LogoMC_2 is not defined.
4 - As a test, I tried scaling a lot higher past my original dimensions (like 1000x1000), and also scaling a lot lower (like 50x50). It seems like regardless of how much or little of the stage is revealed with a resize, Flash is complaining and the movie will only work with the original dimensions (500x440) that I've put 100 hours of work into.Anyhow I was kind of hoping to see good resize/crop/trim/canvas features in CS4. Seems like a no-brainer needed feature.
