Having a problem coding a mouse over small image to enlarge effect. I have a filmstrip of photos at the bottom of my page and want the user to be able to enlarge them slightly by rolling over them with the mouse. Id like this to happen as smoothly as possible. Having a real problem with something so simple.
View 2 RepliesI designed a header that has four photos sliding into place, one next to each other. After this loads, I would like to have the site visitor be able to see an enlarged photo popup on a mouseover for each individual photo. Would I have to code something in the flash (create a button for each...?), or can I map the flash like I would an image?
View 2 RepliesIn summary, I have an image scroller that loads a series of thumbnails defined in an XML file. All of the image load and begin scrolling. When I rollover the scroller, the scrolling stops then resumes again when I roll out.My problem: In addition to a mouseover pausing the scroller, I would like to be able to load text from another XML node based on which thumbnail the mouse is currently over.My question: How do I keep track of which thumbnail the mouse is over? Do I need to create an additional array to keep track of the thumbs or is there a simpler way to do this?
View 1 Repliesi want to make my thumbnails move opposite of where the mouse is.so for example, if i move the mouse up the thumbnail moves down, if i move the mouse left, the thumbnail goes right etc...im trying to google this but i dont even know what its called so im not getting good results, or rather TOO many varied results lol. i was told on another forum that its called parallax menu or something like that but when i research it, i get millions of pages refering to this type of effect (they have other that move vert/horiz too)
View 5 RepliesI am building a gallery which scroll the thumbs according to mouse position. It all works but I try to tell the scrolling to stop with the last thumb on each side, and there I am stuck. I attach the scroll function. The inner if statement is meant to stop the scrolling at a certain point (the 800 is just a number I try, I need to make it more flexible). It works when the mouse move to the right but does not work when it moves to the left.
View 3 RepliesI have an xml with following structure[code]...
i just learn the basics of creating movie clips and loading xml into flash etc..
but to complete my task i need more reference from you peoplethat is why i described the whole thing
basically i want an action to take place when my mouse is within a certain amount of pixels of the edge of the screen (or boundaries). I know the AS2 code, but need it in AS3.I realise that listeners are going to be needed, so if anyone is kind enough to help me out convert this code
heres the as2 code:
root.onEnterFrame = function
if(_root._xmouse<50){
instanceName.prevFrame();
}
I'm building my portfolio in as3 with a 3D panel effect with a class called panel taht i get as my main class in my the publish window. This class uses GS tweening class ton rotate on a 3D axis and to enlarge the pictures from my portfolio all this is working relatively well. Now i got an image to also turn 90 dergees for it is horizontal image nd the gallery has vertical thumbnails so i just coded this simple function to make it flip with GS of course
[Code]....
I have made a image-viewer. I've this AS for the viewer:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
function loadXML(loaded) {[code].....
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]...
Yes, 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 have designed a menu that When you mouse over it, a custom cursor appears. When you mouse down it disappears and when you mouse up it returns. If you happen to mouse down and then drag the mouse off of the menu (whilst in mouse down) and then mouse up outside the menu, the custom cursor disappears. All good. The only issue is: If you happen to mouse down on the menu and then drag the mouse off of the menu AND off of the stage, i.e the SWF (whilst in mouse down) and then mouse up completely off of the stage, the custom cursor appears at the point it left the menu. I have tried to fix this using MOUSE_LEAVE but this dosnt work when the mouse button is pressed down. I have attached an FLA, SWF and the AS below.
Code:
stop();
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I am working on a flash photogallery. It is pretty basic, just consists of thumbnails. The larger images are on another page all together. I didn't write this script myself, I'm still learning. So i grabbed a flashmo file. It is flashmo_067.Anyways, i changed some things around. I made the images scroll with the mouse and i took out alot of the extra stuff in the gallery. I also changed the document size and the thumbnail size.I created thumbnails to the exact size i made the holder in the flash file. Yet when i pull up the movie, the images are doubled in size and are overlapping. I have looked at the actionscript a bunch of times and still cant figure it out. I changed the size of the thumbnail to be smaller but it just blows it up and makes it very pixelated. I cant seem to figure it out.
View 5 RepliesWe bought this Flash template to save time:to make this siteI knew a template would limit us (especially since I only know HTML/a little CSS), but of course, we need a few tweeks. To save time (and if anyone is interested), I have uploaded the source files so you can see the structure here:The flash file is set up like this:Fla file for all the image souces & layoutIndex.html File has some sort of fancy javascriptText.html file is the editable file where non-flash-knowing dingbats like me can just edit the text and POOF! Magic!I know I have bastardized them from the original and some stuff is probably wonky.The biggest problem is that the "thumbnails" that you click on at the starpage are auto-generated, cropping the top left 100x100 square. I don't know why this is the case, and honestly, I think it looks awful.
Is there any way to manually set the thumbnail images, so they are cropped artistically rather than randomly? I asked the template tech support and they told me to "make my images 100x100". I did that for the first blue logo, and it looks like CRAP! Sure, I have the icon I would like, but when someone goes to browse the gallery, they get a 100x100 icon displaying instead of a lovely fullscreen pic.
I'm using an AS3 photoviewer from [URL] and I am trying to get the thumbnail images to pop out when rolled over.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to generate multiple thumbnails from a FLV using only as3? The flv is on the same server as the swf so I'm not using any dedicated streaming server. I'd imagine that as long as the flv has load the video you'd be able to pull bitmapdata from a specific time of the flv. My idea is to pull around 8 images from every flv, convert them to buttons and use them as links to specific chapters in the flv. If this is not possible, would it work better with a dedicated streaming server like red5?
Edit: I'd also like to know how to do it if it's possible :) The idea is to not use the server. The thumbnails will only be used within the swif, so no saving to another location.
i was wondering, how can i extract thumbnail from a flash-video file, then display it in a listbox.the listbox is suppose to have many videos which i need to extract thumbnails from programatically with actionscript.the flash-player is going to be on the web, and the extraction must happen when the swf file is loading, therefore, the method must not be too time-taking.
View 4 RepliesI have to make thumbnails from banners in swf file format (flash 9). I want to use php, but if that's not possible anything which work in a linux command line is fine by me.
I tried to open them with ffmpeg-php, but it says: Can't open movie file /where/the/file/is
The file is there and is readable by the user.
i have a grid of thumbnails (i loop through an xml file to create and display) this is working perfectly.I can trace out click commands on the MCs and load in an image just as you'd want to.I load the image into a thumbMC i created with some additional symbols in...Then i started thinking, it would be nice to have some kind of preloader for each image/thumbnail.I've implemented a MovieClipLoader and this is quite happily loading in the images and reporting when the load is complete, however i am completely unable to target my preloader symbols within this function, so am unable to either control the width of a loadbar, and also show/hide a loadLoop while the image loads.
View 0 RepliesI've been trying to crack this one for a while now, but no luck so far. Does anyone know how to make the thumbnails continously loop using the kirupa xml image gallery with thumbnails tutorial actionscript as a basis? I've searched the forum and found an open thread on this, but no conclusions.
View 2 RepliesI have thumbnails loaded through xml. I need a preloader for each thumbnail.
View 8 RepliesI'm making a picture gallery program and making it so that it takes images and resizes them to fit the proper thumbnail size, using onInit from the clip loader object and _xcale/_yscale. The problem is, the first time the thumbnail scrolls into the visible area, massive lag results; the app freezes for a solid half second until the thumbnail bar resumes scrolling. This does not happen with smaller pictures: apparently, Flash is being stupid and is reducing the size, but not the resolution, of the images. Is there a way to solve this problem other than
a) loading each thumbnail on the visible stage at first, then immediately repositioning into the bar (this would multiply load time substantially) or b) a server-side jpg resizer?
I am trying to create a video gallery with thumbnails, I referenced [URL].
its a great tutorial, Howevr my problem is that i want to stream flv files from http link, and for that I am putting null in the connection, i.e I am not making an rtmp connection as my files are not on my m/c.
now when i do this, im not able to grab the first frame of my stream.
ns.play(URL, 0 , 0), here 3rd parameter is len, which if 0 should play first frame..this will solve my purpose of thumbnail. but right now, its playing whole file in the thumbnail which i dont want.
get the first frame while playing flv from http url?
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 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:

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 have a page that I'm trying to build that has a scrolling image bar at the bottom but I want to also show the full size image in flash above the images that come up in the thumbnail array when you mouse over each image in the array. I found some code that makes the thumbnail array work but I have no idea how to display the second larger image on mouse over because its loading the images externally... what can I do? Feel free to email me back.
