I need to develop a scrolling image bar, I have never ever used a 'scroll bar' in flash. What it needs to do is have around 10 thumbnail images, that you can scroll left to right to, then when you click the image enlarges?
View 1 RepliesI have this project. It is an image gallery with scrolling thumbnails that when you click them will load the larger images. However, I can not get that part to work. The thumbnails load and scroll, but when I click them I get an error message.
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

This is the AS3 for the thumbnail image.
Code:
var fader:MovieClip;
var photos:MovieClip;
var loaderThumbThree:Loader;
function loadImageThumbThree(url:String):void{
//Set properties for this loader
loaderThumbThree = new Loader();

i want each image that opens up from the scrolling thumbnails below to have another set buttons relating to the main image. for instance:
[Code]...
numbers = buttons linked to another set of external images that are related to the big image. the problem is i don't know what controls the thumbnail/main image when i click on the scroller (i'm kinda lost in the code). so right now i have only one set of numbers regardless of which big image opens up.
Haven't been here for a while and I'm really rusty using Flash. I looking for a tutorial or some information on how to scroll thumbnails by scrolling the mouse left or right over the thumbnails.

I'm building a site with flash (obviously) and it has multiple pages, now on one of these pages i wanted a scrolling menu with thumbnails that when you click them they take you to another page, but I'm not quite sure how to go about it. The methods I already tried haven't worked.
View 9 Repliesjust watched Lee Brimelow's how to create a scrolling panel of thumbnails. I have no questions regarding the panel, but, rather, how do I add a link to each image of the scroll; so, when the user clicks one, a popup or new page opens showing not the thumbnail he clicked, but the real size image?
View 1 RepliesI followed a tutorial over at [URL] regarding scrolling thumbnails with the mouse pointer. Everything is working fine except the thumbnails are not stopping at the left and right x position that I have set. I'm tracing the x position of the thumbnail MC and it's showing that it's not changing, but the MC is definitely still moving. The code I'm using is:
Code:
panel.onRollOver = panelOver;
function panelOver(){
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;

flash and actionscript but am a computer science student so code is ok. that said I wanna build a xml based scrolling thumbnails in an horizontal bar. each pic should have some effect when the mouse is over it + the scrolling bar should scrol left or right depending on the mouse pos+ the bar stops when am over a pic (with some conditions) I think this i all PS: I have only two days to do it

in that there is a xml phot gallery, i jus need the images to scroll within that panel.
I've created a two strips of Scrolling/Sliding Thumbnails, now one bar works, but the second keeps scrolling in a loop.I changed the instances names so that i can communicate with the Actionscript but, I placed both image bars on the main timeline, but i really have no idea what the actionscript means. I searched on the internet and i think i need to change the _root? into something else? [code]My second bar is called imgBar2, do i need to change the Var, aswell? to maybe myVar2?
View 3 RepliesI saw the xml gallery with vertical scroll and It kicks ***, since then, I�ve been trying to make it scroll horizontal but with no succes.
how to make the thumbnails in the gallery scroll horizontal instead of vertical?
I'm creating a gallery page for my site, and I need a side scrolling thumbnail display.
Basically it would have several thumbnails that would keep scrolling for ever (some how duplicating the content in a mask).
I have a photo browser that I am building, and so far itlooks good. It loads in however many images are listed in an XMLdocument to thumbnails, and then opens a larger window when youclick on them. The program basically stacks the thumbnails on topof one another in a movieClip, and you scroll through with a scrollbar or by dragging the thumbnails up and down directly. My issueis, once that movieClip gets to a certain size, Flash doesn't dealwith it well. Let's say I have 100 images I want to scroll through.If I stack them all up, and they are 150 pixels high with 25 pixelspadding each side, that's a 20,000 pixels high movieClip, and thatdoesn't fly. I thought about using a list component, but I need itto scroll smoothly, and not only a cell at a time.
Do folks have any ideas on how to do this? It's really keythat it scrolls smoothly, and that it can scroll by dragging photosdirectly up and down in the viewer. It's easy now because I canhave the dragging behavior attached to the thumbnail scroll, andnot each individual image, and I can move that one movieClip,rather than tracking the position of all the images
this is my code so far:

I am trying to build a slideshow with scrolling thumbnails and mouse control. I am fallowing a you tube tutorial. [URL] I have done everything that he says to do and I can not get it to scroll. He builds this in AS2 and I have changed my publish settings to AS2. The thing that confuses me is that he is able to get it to scroll before he puts the code in.

I made a Photo Gallery using flex builder 3. I am having a MAJOR MAJOR issue though. Currently I have thumbnails scrolling by, when clicked the fullsize image shows up in the canvas above. Unfortunately I cannot get the thumbnails to loop around. Here is my current movement code.

public function defaultMovement(e:Event):void {
e.target.x += 1;

I followed a tutorial at [URL]. I used this tutorial because I was interested in a continuously scrolling panel of Thumbnails instead of one that stops when you reach the end. Perhaps people know of another tutorial that accomplishes this and I can just use that one instead? While I can accomplish what he accomplishes, there was (I thought) an easy change. Instead of continuously scrolling I want the thumbnails to only scroll when the mouse is hovering over the thumbnails. You can see the current state of things at: [URL]. And the offending AS is below. I thought I could begin by telling the scrollbar to stop if myVar was equal to false, but I don't even know how to word that.
ActionScript Code:
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(_root._ymouse<400 and _root._ymouse>480){
myVar=false;
} if(_root._ymouse>400 and _root._ymouse<480){
myVar=true;

I am trying to make the bar in the Simple Flash XML Photogallery [URL] continuously loop and having a hard time. I don't really care if the mouse would control the thumbnails, just trying to have the thunbnails move left continuously. I have put two tutorials together and made the mouse control the thumbnails. I used the "Simple Flash XML Photogallery" and the "Scrolling Thumbnail Panel" from [URL] and came up with the file below. How to make this continuously loop or scroll. [URL]
View 1 RepliesI used the scrolling thumbnails to make a buttons that use attachMovie to load movieclips from the library to the stage. I think i have put it together correctly but nothing is loading into the holder.
i was doing testing on the first 2 thumbnails the first 2 chairs in the scrolling thumbnails
I wanted it to load movieclips from the library to the stage in a designated holder

I have added a movieclip "thumbTxt" to the library with a dynamic text field "tipText" in it.

I have googled and can't find a solution that works for me. I have a feeling it is something simple that I am just not seeing.

View 2 RepliesI'm just beginning to learn AS3 and I'm trying to build a website in Flash. This is a photography website so it will have various image galleries. I'm able to have the images display. But I'm stuck when I try to add thumbnails to the movieclip. I've been using a for loop to loop through the total number of photo URLs in the XML, and add them to a thumbnail container. But either this will display, or only the image gallery will display. They will not display at the same time. Ideally, the thumbnail container will appear on top of the large image, so I guess I will also need to z-sort them.
Here's the code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import flash.display.Sprite;
var my_speed:Number;

I would like to make a simple flash file where I have one image on top with multiple thumbnails underneath it. The only thing I need to do is get the main image to change to another when I click another thumbnail. The result would be a basic thumbnail driven image gallery.
View 1 RepliesI am building a website with an image gallery using XML to load thumbnails and images.
Firstly, I was going to try to make the thumbnails act like buttons, so the mouse cursor would change to a little pointing finger like it does in buttonmode but i could not get this to work.
Secondly, I also wanted the alpha properties of the other buttons to reduce to about 0.75 to highlight the selected thumnail that would stay at its full alpha value of 1. Yet again i could not get this to work either.Can you build this type of functionality into the imported xml data or am I just kidding myself here?
I've finally finished my flash xml gallery, and have tested it to my complete satisfaction using dreamweaver. When I do a preview from dreamweaver, or just open up the gallery html file from explorer the swf loads the xml file and all the images flawlessly, everything works. However when I move the site for testing on my mac laptop it loads the xml file but not the images. When I upload it to my test website it doesn't even load the xml file. I just copied the root folder over in all cases I dont understand why it wont work. You can see it here: [URL]
Could this be some export setting I am using incorrectly? Why would it work locally on a windows machine, and not locally on a mac or online on either. I tried re exporting the swf after saving it as CS3 from CS4 and changing the local playback security to only allow network. So now it loads the xml data online but not locally. Thumbnails still aren't showing up online though.
