How to make transition between multiple pages?
Looking for a tutorial to make individual pages (jpg or gif) into swf pages so we can add links in an on-line flip book. I have flash, but have not learned as of yet.
View 2 RepliesThere's a recent Apress book, Elst, Jacobs, Yard. "Object-Oriented ActionScript 3.0." Berkeley, CA, 2007. In it is this invocation of Transition classes laid out in prior pages of the book:
[Code]...
I've run the code, it's cool, I'd like to use the transition mechanism they created (beginning on page 411). In the middle of the code a .png is called up from the directory. But I have my own .jpg on the already on the stage, and I'd like to apply this book's
code to that. I just want to fade out the button I already have on the stage. How can this code be rejiggered to do that? The code can be downloaded from the Apress site [URL]
I have a flash movie with 3 buttons I am trying to link relativley to pages within my site, I have one working fine but can't get the others to link and when I try it makes the one that is working, work no more..

import flash.events.MouseEvent;var getIndex:URLRequest = new URLRequest("../index.html");

I was wondering if there is an easy way of navigating through a website without the use of multiple pages and eliminate the use of a navigation bar. My idea, which I'm sure has been done before because people are always coming up with new inventive ways to browse the internet, is to be able to allow the user to free roam the entire website on one page. I wouldn't be asking if I found it so I figured I could put my mind at ease and ask someone.url...In this map, it allows the user to free roam this map and find different cities. My idea is to have the user to browse a map of a website to different parts of what would normally be links to other pages. The whole web map would be one page and the user could just move their cursor up or down or left to right to each section of the website. Once they get to a section, they can click on certain parts. There is one website that is similar to my idea, but I want to eliminate the use of a navigation bar.I am new to flash but I love web design. I want to come up with a new way to navigate.
View 5 RepliesHow can I print multiple pages in Flash (based on dynamic HTML content that might vary in length)? For instance, how would I grab the text that is beyond the limits of that first page (the printJob.pageHeight)? I can get the text fields text height and subtract the printJob's page height but how would I grab 'the leftover' text.

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 am building a basic database website for my local community and everything is going fine until i try to add more script to control buttons on pages from the menu. The menu has 7 buttons which work, then on each of those pages is 6 more buttons. The first page works fine but when i add the code to the next page to control its buttons i get access of undefined prop. error and keeps playing through whole timeline. This is the code im using to control the buttons on pages from the menu.
View 9 RepliesI am trying to create a project with multiple pages. I stumbled across a tutorial demonstrating how to load and unload swf's. I used it and it works. way i could specify a btn or mc in the loaded swf that will specify the "click" area where the unload content takes place? Right now if i click anywhere on the loaded swf it unloads (i want that to be specified).
var myLoader:Loader=new Loader ();
page1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page1content);

I'm creating a interactive cd in Flash.In my flash file is a movieclip that consists 103 frames. Every frame is a different page.I'm using Indesign to create this pages because its the best way to work with so many different pages.When I export the pages to .jpg everything looks and goes wel. Only the quality becomes very low when putting the swf to fullscreen.I've tried exporting it as .swf but is it wisely to put 103 .swf in a flash file? I'd like to keep the text vector and readable on every screen size.

I have a button at the top right of the page that allows me to stop and start the music. The problem exists when I go to another page (the audio is playing), then click the home button again. This starts the audio track from the beginning again whilst the first track is still playing.How do I need to modify my code in order to stop this from happening?

I am trying to load an external swf with multiple pages so that I can print it in flash this is what I am doing:
Code:
function loadImage(url:String):void {
// Set properties on my Loader object
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(url));
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, imageLoading);

I use the loadImage() function to load a multiframed swf movie then I use the function below to print but only one page comes out what am I doing wrong? How do I get it to print all the pages of the external swf?
Code:
function printScore(mc:MovieClip):void{
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
if(myPrintJob.start()) {
var printOptions = new PrintJobOptions(false);
[Code] .....
//Fail no printer
This is hard to explain, so bear with me... I'm creating "pages" of draggable buttons so that I can reorder them according to their revised positions. Everything works great but I'm stumped as to how to drag the buttons forward or backward a page based on the current active page. If you look at the file you'll see exactly what I mean. I have a portion of the code commented out because that's the area I'm stuck on.
All the MC's are created on the initial load, with each additional page appearing "off the screen" by an adding 1000 pixels per page (in the X direction). Then I just reposition all the MC's as the pages are scrolled through.
What I really want to do is drag a button to the edge of the screen and have all the MC's move that represent the appropriate page. I think I need some sort of timer there or it just flies to the last page.
FYI, if you change the variable "TotalVBs" it will modify the number of displayed buttons. If you change the variable "myButtonScale" it will modify the scale of the buttons. Increasing either or both of these will add more pages to the program. [code]...
I'm kind of stuck on something and I haven't been able to find out how to get around this. I have a form that consists of 3 pages. User fills out the first page, then clicks continue, fills out second page, then clicks continue again, then fills out final page then submits. Usually when I build a form, it's just on one page so I just send all of the variables to a php file. In this situation, I'm not sure how I could jump from page to page.
View 1 RepliesI have placed each of these mc's on their own layer and placed them in the first frame of their layers. I used the _visible = true/false property to show them when needed.
I want a Fade transition to occur when the next mc is visible. So from mc1 to mc13 they will play in a linear fashion and Fade in-between visibility.
I cannot find how to have multiple mc's use the Fade transition and I can only get the transition to work with Fading IN or OUT not both. I would like to have the mc Fade IN then when the sound is complete, it would Fade OUT and the next mc would Fade IN and so on through out all 13 mc's.
I've got a flash move that has a movieclip off-stage that contains a textbox that stretches with the text I put in it.
I've got this code on a button to print the movieclip:

myPrint.start();

This correctly tagets the clip I want but only prints out one page. How do i get it to print multiple pages if the content is long enough?
I am currently accomplishing this by switching between two NetStream, NetConnection, VideoPlayer combinations. The problem is that it is considerably cumbersome. Is there a better (easier) way of doing this? I looked into the play2() method, but it doesn't seem to have any way of overlapping the streams to create a seemless fade-in/fade-out.
View 1 RepliesI have a printjob routine, that starts a new job, then handles the following in a loop for printing multiple pages: 1. update content for every page in a sprite. every loop it's the same sprite. the sprite is visible on stage 2. addPage to Printjob after that sends the printjob to the printer

View 1 RepliesIn "flash website templates" we see some amazing transition effects between the pages, I wonder how they do it? Are they made of flash? or those effects are created in some other application like "after-Effect"? or are there any special tween engine to make effects?I have been searching for a while...but still confused and looking for guidance.
View 2 Replies have three tabs, the rollout and rollover work perfect, I'm using this code to make transition from over and out smooth: On the button:
on (rollOver) {
portfolio.goBack = false;
portfolio.play();[code]....
MovieClip.prototype.rewind = function () { if (goBack && (_currentframe>1)) {gotoAndStop (_currentframe-1);}};
And on the movie clip:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this.rewind();
}
Inside the movie clip, has a bunch of tweens, and on frame one I declare the variable and get the y position of another movie clip (the one that is moving in the tweens) It's instance name is portfolio_graph.On frame 1:
var y_portfolio; // y position of the movie clip that I'm tweening
y_portfolio = portfolio_graph._y;
And on frame 51 is where it should go when it's pressed.
Y Starting point
hosting_graph._y = y_hosting;
// Y Ending point[code].....

hen I press, it disapears the first time. When I do move my mouse over another button ( each button affects the other two ) portfolio_graph moves to roughly -17 ( eye-balled it ).. actually looking at it again, it looks like its playing from halfway through the animation and in reverse.
i'm interested in creating sliding transition panels for menu items similar to those found on the below websites. My question is how these panels work from an actionscript point of view in terms of the very fast and clean motion dynamics and whether people think they are built into the main page or whether they load as part of the called swf
View 2 RepliesI'm just picking up flash and I am trying to make a new menu of buttons in the template and I will be changing the menu that is already there, but it isn't using conventional menu coding. This is the piece of code I am trying to use for my button to lead to a different movie clip to a different frame than the one the buttons are sitting in, a separate movie clip.
stop();
customhms_btn.addEventListener('click', function(e:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop('customhomes');
});
Of course there are more buttons, this is just one. Customhomes is the frame label, customhms_btn is the instance name. It tells me that customhms_btn is not defined. I have this code sitting in the movie clip that the buttons are in by itself in the first layer.
I would like to know how to make flash frames appear in the Library as pages.
