View 3 RepliesI want to incorporate a scrolling image banner into my website, and found a great tutorial on youtube which works well.I can't post a link unfortunately.It is a pretty basic image scroller that has a series of images scrolling across the screen in an infinite loop. Direction is controlled by mouse position (extreme left or right), and it will stop when the mouse is positioned over an image in the center area.Here's the code:
var myVar:Boolean;
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
function onEnterFrame(e:Event) :void[code]....
After trying to figure this out through forums such as this for days, it seems that my answer is to use XML (which I do not know, and which I think would require completely starting over).Is there any way to do this in AS3?
Again, I'm a novice user, but understand the basic animation tools of flash to feel comfortable using it as the platform to make this work. I'd like to be able to switch out images/links as necessary, and feel good about my ability to use flash to do that.

View 3 RepliesI'm pretty new to Flash, and having a few problems with a website I've had to design for my college ICT course.I built the site entirely in Flash, which went perfectly, then went on to build a scrolling image gallery banner for use on a gallery page of the site (assuming that it would be an easy task to chop the banner into the website).When I've tried importing the file to the stage/library it leaves all the images behind (as they are in the library of the first file) as well as the actionscript required to call the images; leaving me with just a new, blank layer.I've also tried copying the actionscript code into the website document and transferring the images from the gallery library to the website library, however, the gallery is written so that the stage is used in its entirety to show only a certain amount of images, meaning that the proportions of the banner are all wrong on the website file.Is there any way to integrate the flash file for the gallery into a confined area of the stage in the website document, or am I going to have to alter my designs so that the gallery goes entirely across the page (put up and shut up style).
Attatched are download links to the two files in question, sorry if they're a little on the large side.

I built a quick and dirty site header banner, with text masking a scrolling background of several images. The text is the mask, so the images show up inside the text. Viewing it works in Flash CS3, but when I publish it, I see the images scrolling from right to left, but they are not masked.

View 1 RepliesI have created a banner and wanted to randomize the URL that the user goes to. Basically the banner is of a product and it is sold a say 3 places. I wanted to randomize where the customer goes, but one of the three places it is sold. What is the easiest way to implement this? Generate a random number when the page loads and that determines the URL link?
View 1 RepliesI am new to Flash but am slowly teaching myself via [URL] etc I have an image that I have added to a website via a content management system and want to make certain areas of that image into links to other sites. I found this page that does the kind of thing I want to do, but it appears from looking at the source code that the person who has done this has cut the image up into several sections in order to fit it into a table: [URL] Is there a better way to achieve the same kind of effect using Flash by making ares of an image into links and keeping the image as a whole?

Otherwise it is working all good, but I'd like it to stay put at the start. Right now it immidiately starts scrolling to right unless I move the mouse on top to stop it. So ye, i need to have it sitting still and only scroll when the mouse is at the edges of the document.
i have created some flash banners with a url embedded in them, so when they are placed on a web page the banner links through to my website when clicked. Fairly simple.But, i tested them on a website on my server to link to another website on the server and they worked fine. When i gave them to a client to embed on their own website (the flash files are hosted on my server still), the links no longer work.
Is this a security issue to stop the links working? i also checked it in linux and the banners worked, but in windows they do not. I dont want the client to have their own local copy of the flash file, as i may update it in the future and dont want to chase up lots of different copies everywhere.
Flash noob here using cs3/as3. I'm trying to create a simple banner which fades between 2 images, looped. (This I can do!). What I'd like is to have each image link to a different url. I've tried changing the images to buttons with the following actionscript:
on (release) {
getURL('http://www.mysite.com', '_self');
}
but get the following error: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances even though they are buttons! I thought this would be really simple, but obviously not! Any ideas are gratefully received.
I have a banner that I'm creating, it has 5 images that rotate via motion tweening. I've created an invisibile button (and also attempted to create multiple buttons) so that when you click on a specific image it will bring you to that URL. So far I have only gotten it to work for the final URL. No matter which image I click on, it only brings up that last URL.
Here is my code:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler1);
function buttonClickHandler1(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.google.com"));
}

I'm working on a project for a client and I'm doing something I have never done in Flash. The Flash first loads four images that have been converted to buttons. Those four by itself link correctly, but when I add the code for the next two sets of images the code breaks and none of the links work. I'm not sure what to do. Here is the code for the first two sets of images:
The last two links cause a problem. I get Error 1120 access of undefined object. However, when I click the button and look in the properties box it says Instance of BTN_Adult01 and Instance of BTN_ModelFemale so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I tried to paste my source code but it won't let me because it contains links and I don't have enough posts, but I did attach the file.
What I am trying to to do with this ad is have two separate URLs to click on. I would seperate the ads but this is what my client wants and I can't figure it out for the life of me!!

View 1 RepliesI want to replace the cloud banner with a series of pictures of equal height, but each picture needs to link to a webpage when clicked upon.
Can this be done? I do not need to know all the details of the "how to"
So:
1. can this banner contain pictures that contain hyperlinks?
2. if yes, can you give me some hints on how to accomplish this?
I'm having a little trouble with my flash banner. When I click on my button, it opens the link I specified in a new window or new tab, like target _blank in HTML. I want it to open in the same window, so you're still navigating through the site. Here's my button's code: link_btn5.addEventListener(MouseEvent.... goToURL5); function goToURL5(e:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest ("/forums/index.php "));}
View 4 RepliesFor my college project I've created buttons were when you roll over images they are enlarged. The problem I have is when I roll over the images, the one next to the one I want shows in front of the image that I'm scrolling over with the mouse. I want it so that the image being rolled over is in front. For example when the magazine article on the far left is enlarged it goes behind the logos next to it instead of in front so you can see clearly what's being scrolled.
View 5 RepliesI need to create a Flash banner. Fairly straight-forward in terms of looks - a long list of services that scrolls from right to left and then loops continuously.
I'm using Flash MX 2004. So far I've created the text - it comes on from the right and leaves on the left. The problem I've got however is how to make this a continuous, seamless loop. When it goes off on the left I can't figure out how to make it come back on from the right.
I am trying to make a scrolling banner. I have succeeded so far in making it scroll from right to left and it loops. However my problem is this - I need for the looping to start when the graphic is at position X (x being a frame number).

View 2 RepliesI have this banner that needs to have a several rows worth of paragraph text animate horizontally through it. Ideally, the text should also be possible to update from outside of flash. As for the scrolling text, working with that much text as one long row of letters doesn't seem feasible, so I'm wondering is there a standard way in Flash CS5 of working with large amounts of animated text? Not the user editable kind like text fields and such, but presentational text.
Obviously it's not efficient to have one long string of text that extends several screens beyond the display, as is the case now. Editing just one letter can take several seconds of scrolling as the string is currently over 3000 px wide, and it's not even all the text that's going to be in the final animation. It'd be great if it was possible to type that text through some web based cms, and have it automatically transferred to the Flash banner,
I am currently creating a new rotating home page banner, on the second banner rotation it displays a youtube video, I've managed to load the video, position etc with out much drama, the issue comes with the actual rotation it self, i need the banner to stop once the user clicks play on the youtube video:Below is the code I'm currently using, is there an easy line of code I can use, to call the stop(); on press of the youtube video?[code]

View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a scrolling banner like the html <marquee> tag that loads text from a .txt file. Here is what I have so far:
Frame1
Code:
var formatObj = new TextFormat();
formatObj.size = 15;
formatObj.color = 0;
formatObj.font = "Comic Sans MS";
[code].....
For some reason it only works by using the stop(); command. The problem is that this causes the animation not to automatically start when placed into an html page. The result I want is for the text to automatically begin to scroll.
Is it possible to put pictures and buttons and links in a scroll box right alongside the scrolling text?
