I am looking to create an area on my homepage that swaps images every 5 seconds and also has a play/pause and next feature for the view to choose if they want to click through or pause on an image. I am looking to create swaping images just like the following link under 'Top Stories'I am using Flash CS4.

I have 2 different pieces of AS for my full flash homepage but i can't get them to work at the same time properly. This first piece is to load random images onto an array on my homepage.
Code:
var myImages = ["IMG_1318.jpg", "IMG_1316.jpg", "IMG_1317.jpg"];
var rand = random(myImages.length);
loadMovie(this.myImages[rand], container);
//trace("image loaded is "+this.myImages[rand]);
stop();
That part is currently working as intended. The problem is since the stop bit was added at the end my random image array works as intended but at the same time it also stops my clock. Here is the AS for my clock.
Code:
mytime = new Date();
s = mytime.getUTCSeconds();
m = mytime.getUTCMinutes();
h = mytime.getUTCHours();
[Code] .....
Is there something else simple I'm missing that will keep my clock working but not mess up my picture array?
I am using AS3.0.I have created simple forward naviagtion from my homepage to my second screen using the code below and a simple button (click1)
//handle events for buttons...
click1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1);
function clickSection1(evtObj:MouseEvent){[code].......
Slightly modified code is used on consequent pages to navigate forward through my site.I have also created a home button that navigates me back to my first screen (called screen2) using the following code...
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickhome1);
function clickhome1(e:MouseEvent):void
{gotoAndStop("screen2")
}
However, when I return to the homepage and click forward, instead of taking me to the next page and the next page, it jumps me forward directly to the 5th. screen.
I want to swap images using actionscript. I've got some thumbnails and the main big image will change depending on the thumbnail clicked. (it's a little complicated than that but that's what I'm trying to achieve in a nutshell!) [code]...
View 0 Repliesi downloaded a free of use gallery from (this gallery) and i'm trying to load it in my flash site .. now, the gallery works if i open it directly (i open the swf file)when i try to load the external swf file into my siteloadMovie("image_gallery.swf", box);then the movie loads .. the gallery is displayed the message "loading xml file" displays and then when the xml is loaded the message "loading image 1/7" displays and only the first image loads.
once the first image is loaded it will not be displayed (it remains outside of my swf file .. i can see it when i resize the window) and no other images will be loaded.if i open the gallery.sfw file again everything works fine .. the problem is only if i try to load the gallery.swf in another swf ..something must be wrong ..i tryed to opern the gallery.fla file and copt everything directly in my site and the problem remains the same .. only 1 image loaded and not displayed in the gallery

View 6 RepliesI have an FLA with a section in it where I need to swap between images (one over the other and so on, which I have done using swap depth) what I want to know is if there is a way to make the transition from one pic to the other smoother by using alpha from 100% to zero, thus revealing the picture beneath.

View 1 RepliesWhen Flash starts up, the default color picker looks like this: I have accidentally somehow made mine look like this:And I have no idea how I did this, how to do it again, or how to get it back to the default.
All my web searches come up with a lot of stuff about coding my own color pickers or importing new ones and stuff. I just want to switch between these two modes: I would like mine back to the default, and my coworker would like hers (stuck on the default!) to look like mine.
I can select one symbol and swap it with another, but why can't I swap multiple instances of the same symbol?
View 6 RepliesI have a VERY big animation, with a huge amount of keyframes, and I like to swap a symbol in this animation with another one. If I just use the swap button on the first frame, Flash only swaps the symbol for the first tween, whereas I have hundreds of tweens in my file... So how do I do this for every keyframe in every tween ?
I'm looking for a plugin or command so I can swap all the colors in a selected symbol. the find and search thing doesnt quite do it well. It needs to affect anything in a group within that symbol. I was also wondering if there was a way to convert fills back to lines or if there is a plugin for that too. Ineed it for flash pro 8, I know its old.

View 3 RepliesI have 170 images that I need to place on the same place on the left side of the stage and and have them move across the stage one at a time, increase in size and then fade out after 10 sec. The sequence then continues for all 169 images. My initial thoughts are to animate the first image inside a movie clip, duplicate it and swap the image. When I tried this it worked fine until the image had shape tweened to the larger size (at this point the image displays for 10 sec and fades out). At the key frame at this point the image changed back to the original one. What do I need to do to make the new image visible throughout the whole movie clip when I swap the image like this? Is there a better way to produce this type of animation? I am using Flash Professional 8 and quite new to the world of Flash and Action Script.
View 14 RepliesThis is to be exported into a movie, so not an Actionscript question. I'm making a parody of a fighter-game scenario. One character looks like Subzero and the other like Scorpion. They're the same models but one should be colored differently. They're comprised of symbols such as arms and legs to make a larger overall character animation. There are several animations of them, for kicks, punches, bobbing, etc. Now, I know that if I went in and edited the colors, that all instances would change accordingly. Duplicating the symbol doesn't work because they share the same inner symbols. Is there a method for "deep" duplication? A tint doesn't work because essentially I only want to change the color of some of the components.

been looking around for a while for this, searched for it here at as.org, scanning every article and archive I could find from the last 10 years. It just seems like how to do it right is not currently out there. Assuming coding has improved, and all of us are much smarter and more experienced than we were last decade, I bring it up once more.
View 7 RepliesI just built a carousel using Actionscript 2.0 in CS4 via an awesome tutorial on this site. I've added this carousel to an existing site and works beautifully on the home page but the problem is, when I click on a button to go to a new page, the carousel appears there as well obstructing the page content. Also, when I click back to home the carousel multiplies. My question is, how do I get the carousel to appear on the homepage ONLY and not multiply each time I click back to the home page? I'm a new Flash user.
View 1 RepliesI've got a question/request concerning my first flash website.If you look at my site you will see 4 .swf's loaded in from the sides. This effect is made possible by Jquery script. But because of lack of compatibility with Opera & Internetexplorer. I have to integrate this all in one swf. But I've got not a clue what kind of code I need to make this effect working.So to be clear what I want is Containing 4 swf's 25% height & 100% width. The slide in function is something I also would like to have (but maybe that's asking for just to much). If you want to see the code of the actionscript from the swf''s you can check it out at the included zip
