IDE :: Get Flash To Keep Loading All The Images In The Array Until They're All Loaded?
Feb 26, 2009
So I've got an array of images,
Code:
pixArray = ["Images/Architecture/Hospitality/01.jpg", "Images/Architecture/Mixed/01.jpg", "Images/Architecture/Office/01.jpg", "Images/Architecture/Performing/01.jpg"];
It's part of a slide show, loading one image, waiting 4 seconds, then it loads another, etc etc. The problem is, between each image, it has to load.I'm trying to find a way to get flash to keep loading all the images in the array until they're all loaded, something to the effect of:
on the completion of the loading of the first image, start loading the second image in the array. On completion of loading that, load the third image, etc, until there are no more. I already have a variable that tells it how many items there are as well:
Code:
var total:Number = 4;

I am loading my images into an Array after my url is loaded
Code:
function urlLoaded(event:Event):void {
urlLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,urlLoaded);
xml=XML(event.target.data);
xmlList=xml.children();
[Code] ....
It is arrayThumb I am interested in, I wanted each each to be placed into a location within this Array. I then wanted to do
Code:
thumbArray[0].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, click_handler1);
function click_handler1(e:MouseEvent) {
trace("IMAGE CLICKED");
}
But when I try this, I get
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

Got another problem here I just try to load images from a small xml-list and put them into an array, but I only get a message like this: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at thumbHolder/placePics() It really tells me nothing! What am I doing wrong? the code is here. I put a comment where the problem is (I left out the imports & stuff):

I am using an array to store images that I load from xml. I have an enterframe event that transforms the image, it changes the width. I have used concat to make a "copy" of the array of images. When I try to access the first array of the "untouched" images the width is changed. How can I always have a "fresh" array of the images?

To test, download and unzip the .fla. Then create a folder "photos" in the same directory. The folder photos has to have at least 8 images called img0.jpg through img7.jpg.
Here is what I'm trying to do: The site is a gallery with several albums, and several sets of thumbnails. The idea is to externally load all the images, so that you can view img1 while img2 is still loading. After page 1 is finished loading, page 2 would then load, etc.
Everything works except the image doesn't load into the thumbnail movie clip. take a look at the code, I've been fighting it for days now...

I have a Gallery that loads thumbnails from an XML. I have added a pre-loader to each one of the thumbnails as it is being loaded from the XML. My problem is that I can't figure out how to remove the pre-loaders after it has called the Event.COMPLETE. With my curent code, As it completes loading the thumbnails, it throws an error and only removes the very last pre-loader. Thanks for any help you can provide.
Here is the code I am currently using.
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images.xml");
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I am trying to build a image-gallery-type picslider class. I have a playlist.xml whose architecture should be clear from the URLLoader stuff in my code. What I aim to do is to load 3 initial images into MoviClips and place the three in an array.Then, I'll manipulate the array to allow the user to flip left or right between images, while loading others offscreen.What I am hiving trouble with is loading multiple images into MCs using the Loader object inside a loop. When I run the code below, only the last image loaded appears inside a MC on the stage.Do I need to dynamically create loaders for each iteration?
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.*;[code]......

Right now I am working on a game where I need to have 19 pieces revolving with 19 different MCs in them. The code I have can accommodate the movement and 19 pieces, but how to get 19 different ones in there - just one with 19 duplicates.
I thought if I addressed them in an array, I could tell my emptyMovieClip to load them into itself with individual MCs. I'm sure I'm on the right path, but it's not working yet.
My array:
anames = new Array (mcAnniePiece,
mcAlbertPiece,

I know there are tons of tutorials out there about loading images from an xml file and creating a slide show. I can plug and play with those pretty good. However I would prefer it if I could start writing code myself. I am starting basic and each day working on adding code to a project.
Here is a made up app. Basically I have created three loaders that add an image to each one which I put into an array, cause why not. I have two event listeners one for an on stage click to load an image, and one a timer to load an image. The next thing I would like to try and do is load one image for a period of time, then load another etc.
So would I need a loop that loops through the array somehow connected with a timer?
public class array extends Sprite
{
//Create Loaders
private var imageOne:Loader= new Loader;

I am developing an advertising site and the site has three seperate flash areas. on the top of the page i have created a movie clip and successfully managed to get the images to load randomly. GReat...Here is my dillema in the other three areas that consist of seperate movie clips i want to load images that have been numbered sequentially like p1.jpg etc... what i want to do is to have the images load randomly, and be positioned in the movie clip where i want them to appear dynamically... then if the user clicks onto the next set of images, i need to be able to tell whether one of the previous images has been displayed, if it has, not to show it again.

I am trying, with this code, to first, shuffle the order of the images in the array so their loading sequence is never the same when the page is reloaded.Then, im trying to have the shuffled array open one at a time, image by image, at a set interval.

Array.prototype.shuffle = function() {

I'm trying to create something that will load a bunch of images into an array and then be displayed whenever needed via using the attachMovie() function.
Code:
for (var i=1; i<list.length; i++) { //list is an array full of urls to images
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("img"+i,i);
loadMovie(list[i], "_root.img"+i);
}
I dont think this is what I want because I don't actually want the images to appear right here (this is the loading part). What I want is each image to be in a separate symbol with a unique identifier so that I can create them dynamically during runtime.

I am loading images into a movie clip consecutively - the code has flash read through the XML nodes one by one and load in the images one after the other. I need flash to recognize when all the images have been loaded, and at that stage I want it to tween the movieClip containing the images. I have it all working, except I am getting this weird glitch where the movie clip jerks from left to right while the image are loading (at least i think its when the images are loading!) - it then settles down and runs normally. the code is below, so can see what i mean by 'jerks from left to right' if you check out the site: [URL]

I've constructed a dynamic slideshow using ActionScript 2.0 and PHP/MySQL. The reason for this, aside from update purposes, is that the slideshow will eventually display over 200 images. Thus, to save loading time and bandwidth, I decided to use PHP to pull ten images from an SQL database, formatting the output in XML. The slideshow itself works fine. Unfortunately, there are a couple of issues I need to address; my ActionScript is extremely rusty, so much of my work's patchy.
The code's displayed below:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myShowXML = new XML();
myShowXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myShowXML.load("getData.php");
[Code] .....
The code in red is my main focus. It's the loop which loads all images as movie clips using the XML information from an array. The loop loads all of the images, making them transparent before the presentation begins. What I would like to do instead, to save loading time, is to load the next image while the current one is displaying. The function "moveSlide" controls the transition of the images, so I'd imaging it'd be best to plade it in there.
There's already an incremental variable being used, with _root.target_mc, for removing transparency from the current slide. The code in blue is also nagging me quite severely. I retrieve the next chain of slides by simply contacting the PHP script again. The only way I could think of doing that was to refresh the slideshow (this is done COMPLETELY in ActionScript, with nothing on the stage). Unfortunately, I could only work out how to reload the whole video.

I have 2 different pieces of AS for my full flash homepage but i can't get them to work at the same time properly. This first piece is to load random images onto an array on my homepage.
Code:
var myImages = ["IMG_1318.jpg", "IMG_1316.jpg", "IMG_1317.jpg"];
var rand = random(myImages.length);
loadMovie(this.myImages[rand], container);
//trace("image loaded is "+this.myImages[rand]);
stop();
That part is currently working as intended. The problem is since the stop bit was added at the end my random image array works as intended but at the same time it also stops my clock. Here is the AS for my clock.
Code:
mytime = new Date();
s = mytime.getUTCSeconds();
m = mytime.getUTCMinutes();
h = mytime.getUTCHours();
[Code] .....
Is there something else simple I'm missing that will keep my clock working but not mess up my picture array?

function processXML(e:Event):void {
var my_xml:XML=new XML(e.target.data);

I want to have an AS3 app load images from url supplied by the user. But I don't want a malicious user to be able to load an SWF file in place of the image, such as with an altered extension "maliciousSwf.png". Well, not sure how big a security threat that is above and beyond the ability of the hacker to decompile swf, but I think that ideally such behavior should not be allowed.
So, is there any way to prevent this? When people allow users to load images in their Flash apps, do they somehow guard against loading of SWF? Or is this really absolutely no big deal?

How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.

I am loading images of different size and then images are scaled and border is drawn for each image as shown in below link,[URL]... I want that border of images to be of the same width and height and for that I need to find out the max width and height size image before loading all the images. Is there any way that I can know the width and height of an image before loading it completely?

In Flash, I can go into the properties of an image in the library and check 'allow smoothing' to enable resampling when the image is scaled or rotated.
How can I achieve the same effect for images loaded dynamically by the SWF from an external URL?
