I am trying to use Actionscript and movie clips. I get my script to work but my thumbnail does not enlarge when clicked. It stays the same size. Here is the script that I am using:
[Code]...
The thumbnail moves where it is supposed but does not get any larger. I have been working on this for 2 days now and have almost lost my mind!
I am in desperate need of some assistance (again). I have created some thumbnail images (as buttons) that need to open to larger images once clicked.
Currently I have it set up to open a new browser window but this is not what I want.
Herewith existing code:
thumb1.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, goto_thumb1 );
function goto_thumb1(e:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL( new URLRequest( "thumb1.swf" ), "_blank" );
}
I need the larger pic display to be restrained to the size 600x400 and preferably to load in front to the main website (like a popup).
i am building a digital portfolio and i have managed to get the thumbnails on a horizontal scrollbar but i want to be able to click on one to load the full image. I dont know where to start though. The code i have so far is:
Code:
package {
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.URLRequest
[Code].....
I followed Senocular's XML portfolio tutorial and everything is working fine, except I want for each thumbnail when you click, for it to open the larger pic in a javascript window. I got it working, almost, the strange thing it's opening the same large pic no matter which thumb I click on. It seems to be loading the same javascript window also, with the adress being the html file where the swf file is. The code in the html file is this:

I have flash CS4 and some time ago made a simple movieclip in an older version of flash.I now want to make a simple gallery with thumbnails that show a larger image once you hover over the thumbnail.[URL]I forgot most of the workings in flash, so it's difficult to make what I want.
View 2 RepliesI'm working on creating a gallery for my portfolio site. I have thumbnails of all my work. I've turned them into button and made it so when you rollover it, a larger preview of it appears with a description of the piece, off to the side in a designated area. Instead of making my stage larger or creating more pages to contain all my thumbnails, I made a vertical scrollbar. The scrollbar works just fine. The problem is when the thumbnail is moved, the rollover that would be moves in relation to it.how can I absolutely make sure that any rollover I create with a button is where I want it to be, no matter where the thumbnail moves to?
View 10 RepliesTo start things off, I use Flash CS3.moving menu that moves on its own when the mouse moves around it. Like the menu moves up when the mouse moves down.[URL]i have found similar tutorials for what i wanted.. but they are AS2 or older versions of flash..and what i needed is more along the lines of AS3 as that's what my class is learning and using.Does anyone know of an AS3 or anything that works with Flash CS3 tutorial thats what I'm asking?

Now i would like to make a loop for the thumbnails so they don't have a beginning or end(Now when i scroll to the right the thumbnails stop at the last thumbnail, i want it to begin at the first thumb again).I'm also trying to make that the middle thumbnail represents the photo in target_mc.
I am making a gallery, which you can view here:[URL]ok, firstly, when you click a thumbnail, you cannot scroll them until you roll off the click thumbnail, and I'm not sure why. is it just a movieclip thing? or can I put some code in to re-get focus of something? ok, now for the two general questions:
1. When you roll over the thumbs, they go up, sometimes they flick back down though, even though you are rolled over them still. is this just because they are moving?
2. Does anyone know why when I add this:

Im trying to create via xml and a for() loop a thumbnails wiewer and each thumbnail have a simple onrelease function.....but my probleme is that my 'container' movieClip and 'BT' movieClip dont show when I export the movie...also when i trace()them the output is empty. maybe is because they are inside x.onLoad(xml){} function ? At the end of the script you can remove // before the trace() function for ckecking in the output panel. here is my code:
xml file: TumbLoader.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><slideshow><photos thumbnail="thumbnail/1.jpg" /><photos thumbnail="thumbnail/2.jpg" /><photos thumbnail="thumbnail/3.jpg" /><photos[code]...
I am trying to get input from my Arduino to Flash, Flash gets signals like this: [where each number seperated by a - at the end, stands for the input of a sensor]
mux0array: 0-0-0-0-0-400-0-0-0-20-0-0-0-0-0-65-
mux1array: 0-0-800-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
mux2array: 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-10-0-0-0-0-0-50-0-
Code to convert this text to values in an array, using regular expressions [totally new for me] that would convert the data to:
0: 0,0,0,0,0,400,0,0,0,20,0,0,0,0,0,65
1: 0,0,800,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
2: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,100,0,0,0,0,50,0
which is traced by this line: trace(dataId + ': ' + dataArray);
So dataId can change from 0 to 2, and dataArray contains multiple (integer) values
Friday, this worked perfect. But for some weird reason, it stopped working properly: it looks like it merges lines when it shouldn't:
1: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,02: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,01: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 ,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,21: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
As you can see, the first line, is working fine: 16 values
the 2nd line contains 33 values: the 16 values supposed to come after the 2:, but after that 16th value, a linebreak is missing, and the 0: is displayed as a 0, and adding his 16 values behind it. The same goes for line 3: 1: 16 values,2,16 values,0,16 values
the next line only merges 1: and 2:
This is the used script:
// accumulates data coming from arduinovar sensorData:String = "";
// connects to arduino boardvar arduino:SerialPort = new SerialPort();
arduino.addEventListener(DataEvent.DATA, onArduinoData );
arduino.connect( "127.0.0.1", 5331 );
function onArduinoData( event:DataEvent ):void{

When an embedded font is used for a label it looks correct, but when the same font is used for a combobox, the selected item font looks different from the dropdown and label font.[code]Why would these look different (besides the size and color)?

View 3 Repliesthe last key frame of layer AboutBtn does NOT have a line before the black circle.I had trouble changing the image when I insert a new key frame AFTER that key frame.What does this mean?Isn't the tweening supposed to stop at the last key frame?What could be the possible action that caused this to happen?
View 3 RepliesI'm new to AS3 and Flash as a whole, but a decent programmer in Java and C,C#. The problem I have is this: No matter what I do, that "IF" statement ALWAYS executes, even if it shouldn't, and musn't, as said by the trace(isfirst), which outputs a 0, which means the IF is not supposed to execute. AKA: It displays first! and 0 every time it gets to frame 61, thus bringing me to the home page no matter what.

I'm creating game in which user is given a map and five flags. User must drag flags, one by one to the countries, so after creating MovieClips that represent flags, I started creating code for them. That worked for France, but after I copied it to Germany and changed everything using CTRL+F ('france' to 'germany' and 'France' to 'Germany') it didn't. Well, actually it did, but there is some error. That's funny, coz German flag does absolutely everything it should, and still there is an error in the output. Here, that's the code:

I'm very close to achieving the desired effect, however, i have been stopped dead in my tracks. I Used Pom's Real/Fake Mask Drag tutorial, so I have that set, however, my problem is getting the ripples to mask...
I have the background, and then I have the other movieclip that is supposed to mask the background (ripple).However, it either does not mask, or it only masks the first frame of the "ripple" mc...
(oh, btw...the ripple MC is dragged by the mouse, so the ripples follow the mouse. I saw an effect like this, a looooong time ago, probly in the days of Flash 3, and i was curious how to go about it, so I have been trying for the last few weeks...)
I know that a movie clip is supposed to loop by default, but mine seems to only go through the code once. Here is my code:

This code is supposed to check server time every second and once the server time passes the end time (stored in a global variable) it should go to a different frame. I've created a variable cd_time for testing purposes which displays current server time on the screen. I would expect it to change every second, but it only displays current time when it loads and does not refresh after.
I'm working with a Sprite in AS3. Initially, width,height are 0,0 as expected.
After this:
var tf : TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.font = "Arial";
tf.size = 48;

A simple piece of code that should trace [code] and I get something completely far away from that,[code]Is the trace function that bad? that slow? is it the fact that passing an argument to the function take so much time compare to the other one?is there something I can do to avoid this type of weirdness ?(For the record, my project is not to trace {rien, done and test}... I have 15k lines of codes that react completely differently if I compile them with "Omit trace statements" or not.
View 2 Repliesive recently created an actionscript 2 product gallery that has five sections for the types of product with navigation buttons that goto a new scene containing that sections products in each 'product' scene ive got left and right buttons that gotoandStop at either nextFrame or prevFrame so far so good this works fine even tho its simple [code]however when i originally tested it i had just one range of products so when it got to the end (ie furthest product right or left) it stopped however as ive added more scenes (i do this because i hate really long timelines) if the user clicks 'right button' at the end of the scene it displays the next scenes picture any ideas on how i can get it to understand where it is in the program and stop?just need to say I really dont get programming at all..i only managed that code by butchering a gotoAndStop that i added using the behaviours panel so the simpler the better lol
View 5 RepliesI encountered a rather irritating problem yesterday. I wrote a class. The class has got 1 variable of the type :Array. its a public variable.On the scene i have 2 movieclips which are connected to my class through its linkage in the library.My problem is that even though the instance-variable (the array) is supposed to be unique for the instance only it gets overwritten for every new instance i create.for example. if i assign the first instance's array 2 values (1, 1)and the do the same with the second but here i change the values to (2,2) then when i check my first instance it has got the same values as the second instance...that is (2,2).

View 2 RepliesI am using a nested template by following the normal practice of creating a template, which I will call "core" and then creating a page from that template and saving it as a "nested" template. So far so good, except, when I update the "core" template, it only updates the .dwt template files that I created from the core template. It doesn't update any of my content pages that were created from the "nested" templates, that were of course based on the core template. I can go into each nested template and then it updates the corresponding pages, but it just seems like updating the core should do all associated nested templates. Is this the way it is supposed to work?

I have assembled a preloader using the method from this site, everything seem to work except for one problem My site supposed to start from a black background and the image fading in. However once I placed the preloader the image dose not fade in but appears right away to the full strength after the preloader gone to 100% Looks like it jumps to a few frames after the first frame of the main swf file. Please take a look at [URL] If you reload again you will see how the image fade in.

View 3 RepliesYes, I'm making a photo gallery like everyone else. I'm making it so people can order pics from the site. There are going to be about 500 photos per album in 5 different categories. The photos can be shrunk down to about 60kb a piece. If I use the actual pictures as thumbnails, just scaled down, the total size of all the pics will be about 30mb. I know this is a lot.
Either way, the people looking at the album will most likely look at nearly all the pics so they will be using up bandwidth either way. Plus, if I use the actual pics as thumbs the user will not have to wait to see actual pic when it's clicked on because it's already loaded. A preloader is annoying to me. I do realize a preloader would be wise when loading the thumbs. Just dislike them after you click one for the big picture.
So is using shrunken thumbs a necessity or if the big pic is under a certain size it shouldn't matter if I use it for a thumb also?
I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?
