I am building a web site and I have the main movie, which loads a picture gallery (another .swf file) using "loadMovie();" and then the problem comes in - my gallery movie has a preloader which after finishing is supposed to move on frame 2 of the gallery movie, but instead of that it moves to frame 2 of the main site...
This is the main movies button code loading the gallery:
on(release) {
gotoAndStop(5);
Gallery_Sub.loadMovie("../Flash/murals.swf");
Here is my preloaders code on the frame 100:
_level0.gotoAndPlay(2);
And at last my gallery movie's code on the preloader frame:
stop();
percent = Math.floor(getBytesLoaded()/getBytesTotal()*100);
if (percent == 100){
_level5.gotoAndPlay (2);
}else{
_preloader.gotoAndPlay(percent);
}
I tried using loadMovieNum(); but somehow it didn't work as well.
I have just been to a really nice website that has some really nice use of Flash on it.... I'm totally wowed by the resizing picture effect though? When each picture loads the loading frame resizes to the new picture size.

I want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:
on (release) { thisframe =+1 } [code]........
but it didn't work. I'm kind of new to any action script other than gotAndPlay, easy functions and all that.
The XML gallery I have has a pop-up window that appears after selecting a thumbnail. What I'm trying to accomplish is for the first picture in the gallery to load into the pop-up window, which is now always shown on the stage. I was able to make it so that the pop-up is always visible, but one thing I couldn't figure out is how to make it so that the first picture in the gallery loads into the pop-up box WITHOUT the user selecting the thumbnail first?I think it has to do with this code:
Code: portfolio_xml.onLoad = function(success) { if (success) { var gallery = this.firstChild.childNodes[index]; galleryInfo.text = this.firstChild.childNodes[index].attributes.title;
i've got all the xml coded and ready to go, now what i struggle is to implement my existing preloader to make it load each image. This is a work done by my friend and i am just continuing his final works so it took me quite a long time to digest these codes too.
this is my frame 1 actionscripts with a preloader.
i am loading all thumbs and images in a container on a single frame using action script..but the size of the swf becomes 1.2 mb so i want to add a loader to it. the loader i am trying to add counts the frames but my file has just one frame so the loader doesnot show up..
here is the script of my gallery..and the timeline has just one frame...
I am trying to build a site that would give users the ability to upload a picture to a picture frame on my site. I would like AS3 to dynamically re-size, and upload the file from an upload bar under the frame.
I am trying to figure out how to add a preloader to my source, but i have an issue everything i have written is loaded externally through actionscript on frame 2, but it still shows everything loading on frame 1.
Here is what the bandwidth meter shows... it is showing everything on frame 1.
I need the preloader to load on frame1, and its not working. Instead the preloader loads with the rest of the site, and dissapears right away.
I'm trying to make it so that the first 99 frames of a 198 frame preloader run even when the swf is loaded into the cache. I have the script looping the second 99 frames of the preloader while the movie is loading, but when it's already loaded, I only want the first 99. Right now, when the movie is already loaded, I'm only able to skip over the preloader altogether and go right to the movie OR I can see a loop that starts at the beginning of the preloader and then cycles through the second 99 frames indefinitely and never goes on to the movie that's loaded.
At first I was using two separate movie clips, one for the first 99 frames and another for the second 99, but since that didn't work, I combined the files to see if that would work, but it didn't. Is it even possible to use a conditional with the onComplete function that's supposed to run when the loading is done, so that onComplete only happens if the current frame of the preloader is greater than 99? Here's my script for frame 1 of my movie. The movie proper starts on frame 2, and preloader is the 198 frame movie clip in the library. The result of this script is an endless cycling of the preloader even when the movie's loaded.
stop(); preloader.play(); function everyFrame(event:Event):void { if (preloader.currentFrame == 198) { preloader.gotoAndPlay(100); [Code] .....
I want to create a picture gallery in Flash. I want small thumbnail images all around the edges of the canvass (canvass will be a rectangle). When the user clicks on the thumbnail I want the image to be displayed in the centre of the rectangle in its full size. How do I create such a picture gallery? Is there a simple tutorial? Or simple template I can use anywhere?
I have a movieclip that when click call function moveW()The function work if I didn't add the command to change frame, but when I add command to change frame the function move to different frame before removing the pics. Does anyone know how I can fix this?this is the function:
function moveW(event:MouseEvent){ var i:int = 0; for (i=0; i<=count; i++) scene.removeChild(arr[i]); arr=[]; count=0;
I just tried to do a picture gallery.But It has to have around 21 pictures.In 3 sections(this is around 7 pictures per section)
I would like to look like file 1. It must have 21 buttons (on which when you click to see the picture bigger) on the same window,now there are only 13.[url]...
So i have created an XML Picture gallery in AS3. Everything is made in two files:
1) The main file Gallery.fla that has only one layer and has just a stage color applied to it 2) and Gallery.as taht contains all the code and functions.
And now that it all is created i would like to create a preloader, but i am having problems doing it. Have been solving this issue for a week, reading lots of tutorials etc. no luck so far. I even tried creating a seperate .fla file that contained only a preloader, that simply loads an .swf movie - which was my Gallery.swf but no good - it is not working like that because i am using an XML file in that Gallery.swf .
I have created a gallery with pictures that is generated from an XML file. When I look at it on Flash, it works perfectly; However when I upload it to a web server, the images don't appear. The files I have uploaded includes the XML file, the pictures folders, the html and the swf file as well as a swfobject.js.
Working on a picture gallery with multiple pages. The basic idea of what I'm trying to do is I get a list of all thumbs, separate the list in groups of 20 and then add all the groups to a MC that slides left and right when the user presses a left or right button.This is the code I've written:
I have a website that I would like to make a little improvement. The website is functioning quite well except one little small thing. The xml gallery image is not centering. At the moment it is aligned to the top left corner. I would like to center all images no matter what size they are, but I don't know where to find the action script that centers the content in XML. Here is the website, so you can see what I am talking about: [URL] how to make a pop up window that you can see the image even larger and go up and down to see the details?
Is there a simple way to create a picture gallery on flash?I literally want to have an image in the middle of the screen and use buttons on the left and right to scroll through the pictures?
I have added 3 staggered backgrounds behind each picture that act as a tri-color border around the image, named borderOuter, borderMiddle, borderInner. When i click on the thumbnail, i would like the border to disappear. [code]...
i'm making a photo gallery in flash AS3. I have two buttons, prev and next, what i want is when you are at the last image end press next, you jump to the first image. I have tried to google it and searched for an answer, but cant find anything. This is my code so far.
I am editing a template made with as2, flash8 and its controlled externally by a html file. I want to add a gallery when the end-user clicks on a picture. The main problem is the structure of the template. Its like that: There is a symbol named "pages" and in that there are 6 frames which one represents a page of the website except the main menu which is in another symbol. In the 4th layer 3rd frame there are 6 movie clips which are instances of another symbol named "p1_3 copy 2" which is a button and an instance of another button named "but_picts". One of those movie clips i want to make it a link for my gallery. So we there is the movie clips with the following actionscript attached:
Here's the situation: I'm making a script that will dynamically load JPG's from a file and will eventually display each JPG's thumbnail them side by side. I've got the code going and would like to know any suggestions for corrections.
I'am searching for a gallery with thumbnails which will load from xml file, and each thumb will open pop-up window with big picture. Does anoyone have fla for something like that or tutorial ? I had searched ultrashock and this forum, but every gallery is much more complicated than that what i'am searching for.
i made a pic gallery that loads pics from xml file.. when I open the gallerys .swf itself on my server it works fine.. when I open the website .swf file on my server it looks fine... but, when I open the flash-generated .html file and try to open my gallery on my web site it sometimes shows me only a couple of pictures... sometimes none. also, when I open it up on my computer, it works fine...
btw: the gallery is stand-alone and I load it in my flash web site through the code ->
Code: var ldr = new Loader(); var url:String = "MY GALLERY.swf"; var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
I have made a dynamic picture album with the following code:
[Code]...
mainPicContainer.loadMovie("portfolio/pic0.jpg"); The problem I have is that the preloader isn't working for the initial picture (code in red) because i'm calling it outside the function, but when I place it inside the function, it isn't loading at all. What should I change in my code to make the preloader also work for the initial picture?
i am creating a flash website, i have a preloader at the start of the site. My problem is that when i view it as it would be seen on a browser the preloader doesn't appear straight away. i have an image with the preloader (site logo) and is 182kb file size and am guessing that this picture needs to load first for the next action to happen. if htis is so, other then reducing the file size is there anyway to make the preloader appear straight away.
