Where I can find a tutorial creating a Floating AS3 Flash banner? My understanding is that you have to use wmode and div layers, and I don't know what those are? Do you have to use Javascript to open and close the banner? I thought you could use AS3 visible or load to do this? I found this: Sliding flash ad over html content [URL].
View 2 RepliesI'm interested in learning more about Rich Media banners (floating, expandable, banners with video, and so on...).I've researched everywhere, and wondered if anyone knows how to pull this stuff off without using things like eyeblaster and dart motif. I know every site kind of has their own requirements, but where do you start?
1. I know I could design and create something that would function using transparency, but what about when you hand the banners off to the website you're advertising on? Do they just know how to implement an expandable or floating banner just by giving them an SWF file?
2. What about video? Most sites have like 20-30k file size limits. Do you have to host the videos on a different server and just pull the video in separately?
I have done a lot of research and havn't found not much how to do create a floating banner in FLash.

Having a problem with a little animation involving balloons floating in and then floating out again when a condition is met. There are two ways they can float in or out: from left to right, or completely randomly. I actually like it as coming in (left to right) and going out (random) but it's essentially up to the user.
Since I moved my Array sort code into the function that basically deals with telling the balloons to float off though, I've been having problems. Sometimes one or a couple of the balloons will not float off and I'm kind of boggled as to why. Because it works fine IF the Array sort part is outside this function, I'm wondering whether, when the for loop at the bottom starts running, the Array is still being sorted and that's why some balloons get left behind.

I have been trying to create a gif web banner using flash. Everything look great in flash, flash player and quicktime but when I export or publish as a gif my background image is grainy and pixelated. My document is saved as 500X90. My background image was saved out of photoshop as 72 dpi. 500X90. I tried saving the image as .tif, .png, .jpg, all with the same result.
I'm not sure if this is the problem or not as I'm a freshman user but I have the background image running on its own timeline that runs the length of the movie. Also the animated text/symbols created in flash look perfect when I save it as a gif the only thing effected is the background image. I'm stuck, I have looked all over the web for the answer. On a side note I'm using a Mac running os x 10.4.11

View 1 RepliesI have a custom TextInput-based component for date and time with certain restrictions on what's considered "within range". But it's still fine to insert dates that are outside the range. When a user types in a date, on valueCommit, I'd like to be able to display a hovering notification to the user, to inform/warn them that the date is outside the accepted range.
I'm thinking of notifications ala the Validators, but I'd rather not use the Validator mechanism because it's really not validation, just notification. Something like a tooltip, but it will only appear if the user changed the value. Maybe an effect of some sort?

I need to create a Flash banner. Fairly straight-forward in terms of looks - a long list of services that scrolls from right to left and then loops continuously.
I'm using Flash MX 2004. So far I've created the text - it comes on from the right and leaves on the left. The problem I've got however is how to make this a continuous, seamless loop. When it goes off on the left I can't figure out how to make it come back on from the right.
I am trying to create an expandable banner ad for my work, but I am not sure how they even work. What size do I make the canvas, the expandable size or the original banner size?

View 0 RepliesI come across this free tools of making GIF banner at this site :[URL] As far as I could guess, the creator made it in Flash, I m trying to make an equivalent Flex application, and here some problems I encountered : -When press Generate Text button, I guess this application should make a new movieclip ( in Flash ) addEventListener to it,so it could be drag&drop, inside the movie clip was a Child of TextLabel with the fontFamily,fontSize,color depends on the combo boxes ==> So in my Flex application I tried to use the RichTextEditor Components, it worked great ( provide text/font/size/color selection ) but when I make a new button, say "Create Text" , I make a new label, but problem is that in programmatic API, Label wont have property such as fontFamily, fontColor, etc to be set with, so I only get the text by myLabel.text = richTextEditor.text, is there a work around ?
- When I use AS to change the rotation of the label, the label did rotate, but the label.text no longer display, =/, button reacts the same when I change the rotation, the frame would rotate without text inside the button frame, like always =)), is there a work around for it ?P.S : Is it possible to export from flex application a canvas to a GIF ? I mean, I made a canvas inside my Flex application, I loaded a picture in it, I drag&drop some text inside the canvas, and in the end, could I export the canvas's contents as a GIF/JPG/PNG file ? P.S: Talk about the RichTextEditor components, after choose font,size,color, I have the disire Text with font/color/bold/italic... just by typed in the text box, but how to get that Text ( full properties ) as another component and add drag & drop to it ?
