Professional :: Adding Text And A Slideshow Instance Skews SWF Off Screen

Jul 15, 2010

I have a third party slideshow instance (SlideShowPro (SSP)) and have used the following code to allow SSP to resize to screen:

import net.slideshowpro.slideshowpro.*;
import flashx.textLayout.formats.BlockProgression;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;

[Code]....

It all works fine.  However, I am trying to put in links on the stage outside of SSP (i.e., Home, Gallery, About, etc.) as shown in this example website [URL].  When I do, the stage is truncated and part of SSP is skewed off the page.
 
How do I make sure that my stage containing text and SSP is captured as the SWF?

Professional :: Slideshow - Adding Button To Apply Fade Effect

Jan 6, 2010

I was able to take an existing Flash file created in '06 and make a simple slideshow. See it at: [URL]. Now I've been asked to add buttons and make the slides fade instead of slide into each other. They want it like this: [URL]. So I created a very simple mock up: [URL]. I just can't get the buttons to work like the prosolassociates one above. I have attached the FLA here for review.

Professional :: Instance Name When Adding From Library?

Nov 11, 2010

When addressing nested movieclips like so: _root.movieclip.movieclip.variable they need to have an instance name set, otherwise they count as undefined. So I can set that in the properties no problem, but when deleting it from the stage and then readding (manually or by actionscript) the instance name is gone thus I can not address nested clips by action script.
 
I don't understand how this will work then, since every time I add a clip by code it will have no instance name. The only alternative for me so far was keeping the clip on the stage the whole time, just out of bounds or invisible so I can still do stuff like _root.movieclip.movieclip.variable or _root.movieclip.movieclip.gotoAndStop(2).

Actionscript 3 :: Constructor To Assign Instance Name From Super Constant When Adding Instance In Flash IDE?

Jun 17, 2010

I have a library object (SomethingMC) which extends a custom class (Something). Something, in turn, extends MovieClip.If adding SomethingMC to the stage within Flash CS3 IDE, is it possible for it's super class (Something) to assign an instance name from a class constant (Something.THE_CONSTANT)?

package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code].....

The above does not work. It throws Error #2078: The name property of a Timeline-placed object cannot be modified. if the instance is assigned a name in the IDE, and it just doesn't work if no name is assigned in the IDE.

Professional :: Text Input In Full Screen Works?

Jun 8, 2011

I made a trivia game app that lets me enter text into input fields when the app is fullscreen on my trivia laptop. When I try running the swf on my home laptop, sometimes it lets me enter text, sometimes it doesn't. I can't remember what I did on my trivia laptop to allow text entry under full screen. Can someone please shed some light on under what conditions Flash allows it?  I'm wondering if I set up the trivia laptop to run swfs using a debugging version of Flash or something, but I can't remember.  As far as I can tell, it's just using the Flash player.

Professional :: Create A Flash Animation In Which A Text Title Fades In To The Screen

Feb 3, 2010

I am trying to create a flash animation in which a text title fades in to the screen. I created the text, converted it to a symbol, then tried to create a motion tween in which I could tweak the alpha values of the text object. However when I try to create the keyframe, the popup that comes up has the Color option greyed out (which is where I believe the alpha setting lives).

ActionScript 1/2 :: Image Slideshow - Getting White Screen?

Apr 8, 2009

I found a tutorial online to do a Image Slideshow. [URL]. But, I can not get anything to work. I am new to this and unfortunately do not have time to do any formal training right now. Probably when this project is done. When I "test movie" I just get a white screen w/ nothing on it. I should be getting a box 500x500 w/ a box that is 400x400 for my frame. I just finished step 3, and I do not get my frame box like a should.

Here is what my .xml document says:
<slideshow width="400" height="400" speed="5">
<image url="images/1.jpg" />
<image url="images/2.jpg" />
<image url="images/3.jpg" /> .....

And here is the action script.
var myShowXML = new XML();
myShowXML.ingoreWhite = true;
myShowXML.load("slideshow.xml");
myShowXML.onLoad = function() {

I have a slideshow that is set up to run on an LCD screen. The problem is the slideshow turns to a white screen when left running overnight. I would like the slideshow to continuously play without having to do a browser refresh each day. I am thinking there is some build up of memory that is causing the problem. I have a loop to continually check my xml file to see if anything has been updated.

Professional :: Adding A Progress Loader To A Dynamic Text Field / ScrollPane

Apr 28, 2011

I have a dynamic text field which is loading images from an external html.  This text is named scrollPaneImage and is a child of a movieClip called scrollPaneContent.  I then load scrollPaneContent into a scroll pane named scrollPane
 
When the user interacts with my swf different images are loaded into scrollPaneImage. Since some of the images take a few seconds to load, I'd like there to be a progress loader displayed in the scrollpane.
 
I have tried adding the progress event listner to the dynamic text, the movie clip and the scrollpane and cannot get it to respond or track the loading.

scrollPaneContent.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,reportProgress);
function reportProgress(e:ProgressEvent):void {
trace(e.bytesLoaded + " loaded out of " + e.bytesTotal);
trace("LOADED");
}

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Navigation Buttons To Slideshow?

Mar 18, 2010

I followed a tutorial to build a click-thru photo gallery that is linked to an XML file. The tutorial set up the navigation as being controlled by clicking the images, but I wanted to add some more obvious navigation prompts for viewers on my website. The "next" button was easy to do as I just copied the actions for clicking the images on the main section of the stage, but when it came to building the "previous" button, the code was not working. I want the button to take the audience to the image before the image they are on when clicked.
 
I've pasted what I have below and highlighted the sections that I have altered. If you could please tell me what I'm doing wrong, that would be great.

Adding Particular Transition Effect Between Images In Slideshow

I've been asked to incorporate a slideshow into a website that I'm working on, which is fine, except they have seen a particular tranition effect that is used between images, this can be seen on these two sites...[URL]. Its kind of a bleach effect? Which I presume is achieved using some sort of tween engine like Tweenmax or the Fusekit? The Honda site also has a nice second transition effect which is pretty cool, where dots kind of fall away? Has this just been done on the timeline?

The even trickier part is when someone clicks on the smaller images, their larger image should come up.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Adding Border Around Thumbnails In Photo Slideshow Using XML And Flash

I have been using the tutorial on the Photo Slideshow Using XML and Flash, and think it is fantastic. It is really clear and easy to follow. However I have encoutered three things with it. Firstly I would love to be able to add a border around each thumbnail accross the bottom, that would change color when the user rolls over the thumbnail.I would also like to be able to highlight which thumbnail is currently being shown as the top image.The third issue I have had is when a user moves the mouse to the right of the first image, it scrolls about 5 pixels to the right even though there is no other image before it.
