IDE :: Xml Gallery Fading Out?
Mar 25, 2009
I'm trying to mix the simple photo gallery code with the xml gallery. i'm trying to get the images to fade in and out like the simple gallery, yet have all the features of the xml gallery. I'd like to do this without making two different movie clips/xml files, like the simple gallery. Again, any help would be terrific. I'll post the two codes.
simple gallery:
loadMovie(this.pathToPics+this.pArray[0], _root.photo);
MovieClip.prototype.changePhoto = function(d) {
// make sure pIndex falls within pArray.length
this.pIndex = (this.pIndex+d)%this.pArray.length;
[code]....

Ive made myself an xml gallery already, i just wanted to put a fade on the thumbnails and main images after they are fully loaded, so they appear gradually. thought it would be simple using the onLoadStart, onLoadProgress and onLoadComplete functions that are envoked by my movieClipLoader, but having soe problems with the images and thumbs disappearing a short time after fading. a link to what ive got so far is here, have a look and wait a while and youll see the thumbs, mains disappearing [URL] my code for the gallery is such (all contained in one frame, no buttons involved):

The images are loaded via XML and fadeIn in the order set in the XML file.At the moment a new image is required, it fades in. After the set time it gets deleted (setEndFlag) and the next image fades in.i guess i need to set a timer in order to fadeOut the "previous" image and fadeIn the "next" image. and after the "previous" image has run out of time it gets deleted.how could i include this in the script below? i really don't now how to do it anymore, since my as3 knowledge is not yet there where i'd like to be... and after hours trying to get my head around it i'm getting blind.[code]

I'm creating flash image galleries for a local design firm's site. Their pages are long, vertically scrolling, with large image galleries spaced down the page (about 900x400px each). Each of these shows an initial image, and then has buttons above to select image 1-9, or pre/next image. The images will need to dissolve from one to the next.Because there are so many of these galleries, I want to put each in a folder, name all of the images Image1.jpg, Image2.jpg, etc. and include a txt file to tell my navigation button how many images are in the gallery (this part works).
OK, but I just can't get the thing going now. Here's how I've approached it:
Each Gallery image is a MC that has an alpha in/out animation, with a stop action in between that also swaps it to a certain level (just so I can identify it using getInstanceAtDepth when I need to fade it out).Image_1 is attached to an empty container on stage at the start. I want to define a function that will be called by my gallery buttons that will 1) tell the clip currently onstage to fade out (that works), 2) attach the appropriate clip to my container clip at a particular level (this does not).
Code:
_global.galleryFader = function(clickVar) {
// "clickVar" is returned when the gallery number buttons are pressed

I have a gallery that I built from a tutorial I found online--it has an empty mc with a border around it, and when you click on a thumbnail an image is loaded into the mc and it fades in when it loads in and out.Ofcourse it works fine offline, but when I test it online the image will load in off-center, if you click the thumbnail again (after it has loaded the first time) it loads in the position it should be in. Here is the code I have on the first frame:
spacing = 1;
containerMC._alpha = 0;
MovieClip.prototype.loadPic = function(pic){

i have an xml driven photogallery with thumbs and the slideshow starts automatically and is cross fading and it has a next/play/pause/for buttons. Everything is fine but i don't like the way the thumbs scroller operates, it's way to mechanical and i would love to add an easing effect to it. How do i do that? this is the code of the whole gallery:

I can't work out why - but when I try to fade out some text (by calling fadeoutSecondText), the text fades out, and then immediately fades back in. Fading in and out struggle against each other, resulting in rapidly flashing text!

What 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:

I've made a gallery slideshow before but wasn't as intuitive looking back at it now and I want to start fresh on this new project. I would like to convert a jQuery lightbox style gallery into a flash XML based AS3 image gallery with categories. I don't want to code the FLA, I want separate AS files.
This is a school project for my website. I would use jQuery and I have more experience with it but this project needs a flash component. I'm just not sure where to start and looking for some advice on how and where I could find resources. I want it to be minimal as I can make it;
- 8 thumbnails to a "page/section" with more flowed into page 2 or 3 etc. (or a srcoller)
- a few buttons for categories
- images fading in full size with a description when hovered over and a close button
- preloader (simple bar)
Esentially something like this > http:[url].........works which is using http:[url].... for the thumbnails. That might be ambitious but I'd suffice with a simple fade effect.I've downloaded some galleries out there but most of the code is messy or outdated.http:[url]... this is alright, but all the code is done in the FLA. I might break it into AS files but it depends.

In my "actions" layer I have a function that loads a gallery of a external file called gallery.swf. The swf loads successfully but I cant remove that. The only way to remove is to call removeChild(mLoader.content); I noticed that the movies loads without addChild.
But sometimes also calling removeChild(mLoader.content) the content of mLoader is not removed and still appears in the stage.

I have a flash site that I'm working with that has an xml photo gallery as one of it's menu items. the photo gallery has three pages, all three containing thumbnail images that once clicked, load the larger image. The larger image dissolves in covering the page with the image. Once you click the larger image it dissolves out returning you to the gallery.
What I want to to do is to change the first page of this gallery to a video gallery, or player, leaving the other two galleries as image galleries. I tried simply replacing the images listed in the xml document to flv files and the flv file does not load. I simply want to know what it is I need to do in order to change this one page so that I can embed videos on it.
I've attached the Action script that loads the xml gallery in .txt format

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,

so I have this scene in Flash where a song plays. However, once everything is done on the scene, the screen fades and it goes to the next one. I put a layer in the next one that stops the music, but it just suddenly stops without fade. Also it doesn't matter if I select FadeOut because it will still suddenly stop. If I put Event instead of Stop, the song just keeps playing.

i am basically half way home, but I can't quite figure out how to make my movieclip gradually fade out. What I want is an arrow to appear and dissappear when the user is around some buttons. Here is my code:
stop();
speed = 5;
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
greenArrow._x += (_xmouse-greenArrow._x)/speed;
if (_xmouse > 0 && _xmouse < 340 && _ymouse > 0 && _ymouse < 60) {
greenArrow._alpha += 10;

have a question about loading new photos into a already populated image gallery.So I have my gallery set up so first loads my stage pics. What I would now like to do is load different set of images via the click of a button.So for example the loaded gallery already has all thumbs loaded and the user can click on them to view the full size image. next instead of the user having to close this gallery to allow a new gallery to open with a different set of pictures I would like to have a button. This button will unload the existing thumbs from the gallery and load in new ones.

I have a few movieclips that I am fading out alpha with actionscript
The problem is the MC is not a solid shape, it has layered shapes in it, so you can see all the shapes within it fading indivually
Is there a way of fading an MC as if it were a solid (bitmap?)
Is there an easy way of converting a vector mc into a bitmap in actionscript?

I've got two SWF files where one control what happens in the other using LocalConnect and would like to use opacity changes to make a nice transition between two movieclips in the receiving file. I want the two movieclips to fade nicely so I can't animate it because that would make a brake just as i hit the button.
This is the code in the SWF that sends the information.
Code:
btn01.onRelease = function() {
var sending_lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
sending_lc.send("lc_name", "methodToExecute", {targetName:"mc01", action:"play01"});
};

I created a slideshow where the images fade out and in using a motion tween from 0% alpha to 100% alpha in 15 frames. The fading doesn't look right to me it is very jagged. Is there a better way to do this. My files are too big to upload even when I tried to limit them to 3 images.

So I have a button (currently loading a movieclip) and on the main stage there is a piece of music playing constantly while the user looks around the available options on the flash.
What I want to know, is there a way to fade out the music when the button is clicked?
Im using ActionScript 2.0 also :-)

I have text that wraps around an image on a page and I want the text to fade in from top to bottom. I would have just made a gradient in Photoshop and then tweened it over the text. But the text wraps around an image and the gradient would cover the image.
