Professional :: Graphic Overlays ScrollPane On Initial View?
Nov 2, 2011
The first time visiting a page containing a ScrollPane, the graphic (a .jpg containing text paragraphs) overflows the ScrollPane. If I click another link on the page and revisit the first link, it works fine. Problem occurs on 3 separate links on the page that have a graphic longer than the ScrollPane.The three links are on the "about" page.I'm using CS5.5, publishing in Flash Player 10.2, ActionScript 2.0. Problem occurs in IE7.0, IE8.0, and Mozilla browse
I want to load an initial component to be displayed in my flex app, depending on whether a value in the SharedObject is set (first launch). How do I accomplish that?
I am pretty new to AS3. Basically I have a photo gallery that runs in a container, which is added to the stage like so: import com.xmlphotoalbum.*; var gallery:XmlPhotoAlbum = new XmlPhotoAlbum(); gallery_container.addChild(gallery);
I want to have it set up so when you click on a "gallery" button, it reloads/refreshes the gallery to its initial state, because the "internal" navigation of the gallery isn't very intuitive...and so the only thing I can think of is essentially to remove the gallery and re-add it, so that whenever "gallery" button is clicked, it resets the gallery to its initial thumbnail view. I've tried fumbling around with removeChild, addChild, if statements, and I'm pretty lost.
I am using a ScrollPane in my application(viz., instance name is: myScrollPane). When I view the contents of the ScrollPane, it shows them perfectly. My issue is: When I try to view data present inside the ScrollPane, if I move the Vertical-ScrollBar of the ScrollPane to middle(or somewhere from top to down) and then click on Submit button(viz., instance name is: submit_btn), then its Vertical ScrollPosition must be reset from middle(or any position where we leave it before) to top(or initial position). Hence, I need to move the Vertical ScrollPosition of ScrollPane to top (or) initial position. Everytime, I need to refresh the VerticalScrollBar Position when I click on the submit button. How to do it?
I am using Flash CS4 AS3.. When I open my browser "Internet Explorer 7" it opens normal. But When I open a link using the following Flash code it opens half in length and half in width. I need to click on "Maximise" button to view in full. How to solve the problem? It is our Intranet link.
When I use the play option under "control" menu every thing runs perfectly. When I try to test movie under control menu, play as exported .swf, or debug movie, etc. the animation is stuck at the initial screen.
I have a Flash animation that loads a quick animation and then on a button click loads and external swf while at the same time moves the playhead on the timeline to frame 2 so that it has a blank stage to play on. The external swf then loads and plays. At the end of the external swf's animation I would like it to unload and then return to frame one of the containing movie. I am assuming that on the last frame of the external swf I should be putting some actionscript that will unload the movie and then talk to the initial containing flash telling it to return to frame 1.
The main swf button that loads the external swf is using a code snippet from the AS3 CS5 library and looks like this...
[Code]....
It is also using gotoAndStop(2); for the same button.
So to unload the external swf and return would I use something like... this.unload(gotoAndStop(1));
I would like to create a div overlay over videos in a html page. (Google Ads in YouTube). The videos could be embedded YouTube videos, or from any other source. Any ideas on how to do this? I have done a similar task of overlaying divs on images but never did for videos.
I don't have quite a good enough grasp on AS3 just yet, but I'm getting there.I have a movie that has an intro to it. It also has buttons that take them to subsequent pages.Once they go back, I'd like the intro portion of the movie to not play. In other words, I'd like it to start at a particular frame after the initial visit to it.I think this can be done with Local Shared Objects,
Facebook Connect uses JS/CSS overlays/popups for user interaction. I have sites with Flash elements, and no matter how I set the z-indices, the Flash always seems to go to the topI have a similar and likely related problem with a div with display:fixed at the top of the screen, where it gets covered by the Flash when you start scrolling.
Is there a generic way, preferably in Javascript but flash would be okay, I guess, to put an overlay on top of full-screen flash video without editing the video player?The particular use case is that I'd like to add growl-like notifications to some live streaming stuff without writing a lot of AS that ties me to a specific player. It seems that most of the players would not allow this anyway.
I have a Google Map with overlays.Is it possible to add EventListener to those overlays so that they trigger a function?The API reference leaves me clueless.
I have a MovieClip inside a ScrollPane. Inside this MovieClip i have buttons. What i want to know is: how to click a button inside a Movie Clip, that is inside a scrollpane, and make it load a swf outside the scrollpane?
I've got some moveieClips in container in a scrollpane component.The movieClips are draggable.I'd like to add extra functionality where if an item is dragged and touches the bottom of the scrollpane, it automatically scrolls up, and the reverse if you touch the top with a dragged object.I tried the scrollDrag, but I only want it to scroll once the dragged item touches the bottom or top.So I wrote this and put it in the drag function:[code].... It needs a bit of work, and I think I can get it working, but the one thing I'm stumped on is how to make the scrollbar move too.Is there a way to communicate with the component using code (I created this component from the component inspector)?
I'm trying to use a scrollbar in flash cs5. The problem is that I tried the ScrollPane, but I want to be able to contact the content in it. The way I have learned, ScrollPane just links to a moveclip in your library, and the content itself is never actually placed on the stage. So, how can I call up the content in my ScrollPane? I tried to give the ScrollPane the instance name "scroll" and refer to the content in it, like this: scroll.content1.content But since the content never is placed on stage I can't contact it.
I'm having trouble calling up the content in my scrollpane in a simple quiz application. I'm a graphic designer so I'm not real proficient with AS3 yet. I created a scrollpane object called Scroller1 and I'm trying to scroll a movie object called Movie1 inside the scrollpane. The code I used from the Adobe site calls up an external file, but I want to call up an internal movie so I changed the Scroller1.source = to the movie name, but it doesn't work.
[Code]...
Is there some other way I need to call this up? The movie is a contents list that has buttons to take you to various frames in the application and it's too long for one page.
I'm using a scrollpane and when you release the mouse outside the flash area when scrolling it doesn't register the MOUSE_UP and gets stuck in its scrolling state. You then have to click inside the scrollpane to disable the scrolling. I'd like to use a MOUSE_LEAVE event to remove the focus from the scrollbar so this doesn't happen. What is the best way to disable the scrollbar when the user is outside the flash window?
...only if its a top tier movie clip. If the movie clip is embedded in a slide show, it doesn't work properly. It works only when I turn the scrollwheel and move the mouse in the same direction at the same time. Kinda strange, isn't it? Is there a fix?
Is there anything a graphic symbol can do, that a movie clip can't? So many tutorials I look at, use Movie Clips for so many things, including one frame objects, and buttons etc...So, is there any benefit to ever using a graphic symbol over a movie clip?
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right area or even able to describe clearly what I'm trying to accomplish.I want to create a graphic (as an example, let's say a Christmas tree) where stars can be purchased as a donation via PayPal to light up the tree. Once the donation is made, PayPal needs to return to the Flash graphic with the new star and message attached to it I'd like to do this for various holidays (Valentines, Easter, etc.)
I'm importing two swfs - one goes into a scrollpane called menuPagePane, the other just where it is.I get a "cannot access the property or method of a null oblject reference" - menuPagePane.addChild(loader); error.
If I only try to import one of either swfs, they work fine. If I take off the menuPagePane reference (so as to import it directly to the stage, not the scrollpane), the swfs load, but I get a second instance of the first one loading on top of the second one.
I need to use a ScrollPane in my site to show several photos.My site is set up to load MC's to the MainStage using attachMovie.One of my MC's is named Photos. If I add a ScrollPane to Photos with content called Pics (another MC containing all the photos.) it won't scroll What is the proper method of adding a ScrollPane to a MC called with attachMovie?
I was experimenting and finally got my "scrolling picture" test going. That is, a picture that can be scrolled around. I used the ScrollPane, also set the ScrollDrag to TRUE so you can drag the picture around, but no matter what I do, I can't get the Horizontal Scroll Bar, without the drag, people will no be able to scroll left to right and vise-versa. How can I include or make the Horizontal Scroll Bar to work / show? Also, is the a way to set the starting position of the picture ? For example, the initial display set to the center of the picture.
I'm more of a Flex than Flash developer so I'm hopeful this is something easy. Short story, I have a scrollpane in a flash-created swf. In my pure AS3 project I dynamically create menuitems within a new movieclip.
Is the forum-specific search broken? I get 0 hits on the keywords scrollbar and scrollpane, but what's more curious is I get 0 hits on the word movieClip.
I created a scrollpane which contains several different buttons. Each button does a simple timeline navigation, but won't function inside of the scrollpane. I just need each button to 'gotoframeandstop'. How can I make these buttons work in a scrollpane?
I want to make a MC that holds various Data such as textfields images maybe a video, ect just basic content, so i want to put that into a MC and be able to scroll it. But i cant figure out how to do this, no tutorials on the internet. And i dont want to use the UIScroller and Scrollpane components as they are highly unnatractive.. It is for a touch enabled device so maybe a gesture could be used? But im sure a Mouse Event would work,
I created a scrollpane in as3 and set its source to another object, which contains several rows of icons. The scrollbar in the scrollpane is getting the right length, which means the object was loaded as expected, but the contant is not showing correctly.
I created a Thumbnail class for this file to load and make each individual thumbnail. Here is my code, the red text is where each thumbnail is loaded:
import fl.containers.UILoader;import caurina.transitions.*;import flash.events.Event;import fl.containers.ScrollPane; var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("pics.xml");var urlLoader:URLLoader =
