Actionscript 3 :: Create An Interactive Image Panning In Flash?
May 27, 2011
I'm kinda new in flash and as3 so this may not be as difficult as it looks right now.I've been trying to figure out how I can pan an image in flash (x and y). I have a movieclip and I want the user only to see a small part as he's panning with the mouse.
I've been looking for a Flash component/tutorial I can use to make an interactive map. Now I've found the tutorial Interactive Image Panning here at Kirupa.
In that tut you go with the mouse to the right, and the image floats to the left...but here's the problem/question: I also want to get the image float to the bottom/top, when the mouse goes to top/bottom...
Just downloaded the interactive image panning fla and am using the code to move swatches that are buttons...
it works only problem is that once a button is clicked it still pans the buttons around as it is a onMouseMove function.This can confuse the user as they may think it has not been clicked.So what i want is for that panning to stop once one of the panning buttons is clicked.yet still have that panning function if the original button clicked is the wrong one and the user wants to scroll through them again.
i have a problem with Interactive Image Panning & Alpha Channel Masking. without panning codes masking is working but with panning i can't see my masked area. code is below and icant find where i am wrong or what i am missing
Interactive Image Panning [URL]...Tutorial and the
Easing on Mouseclick [URL]... Now i tried to combine these 2 together and nothing happens , either 1 works or the other one works but never the 2 together.... [URL]...
I am building a flash based website and have a large rectangle mc that I am panning left to right that has buttons nested inside. I followed the kirupa tutorial called "interactive image panning" and everything seems to be working fine. My problem is this. I want this panned mc to be centered and framed by a black border that will also act as a mask hiding the ends of the rectangle that have not yet been panned to. When I add this black border the code thinks the stage dimensions are larger and the panning gets whacky. How can I contain this panned mc so it doesn't react to a change in the stage dimensions. it also does this when I open the published HTML in the browser. I basically want it to behave like the sample image on the first page of the "interactive image panning tutorial". There must be an easy solution.
I want to create a class that is interactive and can hold an image. I want it to be lighter then the Sprite class, so I was thinking about extending the bitMap class. If I extend the BitMap class. put a bitMap data in that class and at it to the stage. would it appear ?
im trying to make a interactive panning with the tutorial Interactive Image Panning, Page 1 but this swf loads in a main swf.. the code i am using for the panning swf is
just wanted to get some second opinions on something before I dive into a project.I would like to use the same effect executed in this website: http:[url]....how to go about doing that. I have a few ideas but am quite intermediate when it comes to code, so I was trying to search for some help topics and tutorials that might spark something.But I can't figure out what this sort of method is called! Where all the content slides like that as you click on different parts of the navigation.
* I should add that I am more proficient in AS2 but wouldn't mind learning how to do this in AS3.
I am looking to create a site (or part of a site) that is similar to the following links (which both contain panning movie clips with interactive elements within them). One of the keys to this is that it does not pan until you get to the extreme left or right portion of the screen, so that folks can have an effortless (and un-annoying) experience. Anyways...I have done a TON of research online and have found some stuff, but nothing that has really fit what I'm looking for. No more rambling. Here are the two sites.[URL]..."enter site" to see what I'm talking about)
I am trying to create an interactive image gallery for use on my GoDaddy.com site. The site is template based and will only accept a single standalone.swf file. As an example GoDaddy shows an image gallery created in Flash Slideshow Maker Pro. However, this is only for a PC platform and I'm on a Mac. I created an interactive image gallery using Jetphoto software. However, the Jetphoto software does not produce a single standalone .swf file. Instead it produces folders containing hi & lo jpgs, an html file, an xml file and a jetphotview.swf file. Does anyone know of a Mac based interactive slideshow program that is easy to use and will create a single .swf file? Or, although I don't know how to use it, I own a full version of Flash. Is there any way to convert the series of Jetphoto files to a single .swf file? When it is opened in Flash the save menus are grayed out. I tried to convert the .swf file back to an .fla file to bring into Flash and that doesn't work either.
I have an image panning to the left and right on mouse move. All this works fine but now I can't figure out how to stop the panning at the beginning and end of the image (it just goes on with the mouse move). Would be great if it would stop at the end and let the possibility to go back to the other end again. Here's my code:
Code: import flash.events.MouseEvent; var centreX:Number; var steps:Number;[code].....
I have an app in Flash CS5 that I am creating for iOS. I am loading an external image to a frame with the UILoader. I would like to be albe to use the two finger zoom and single finger up/down/left/right movements on the image I loaded with the UILoader.
I have this document in flash where I want an image to pan with mouse movement. When I test the movie it runs ok with any problem. But when I resize the window the position of the big image, it goes all wrong. I'm going crazy with this. Any help? I'll leave the link here so you can see the .fla document.

And here is the code (Actionscript 2.0)
var boundX:Number = bigPic._x+activator._x*(bigPic._width/activator._width); var diffX:Number = bigPic._width-activator._width; var easeSpeed:Number = 7;
I have modified the code from the Interactive Image Panning AS3 version (found here) and I have come to a standstill. If you look at my .fla (link) or the image (link) you can see its not a rectangle but has two of the top corners cut off. So it can't really be panned using the usual method because the corners need to be avoided.I have managed to trace 'white' or 'not white' when the areas i don't want panned are visible but I can't figure out how to get the scrolling to stop! My code is as follows:
I'm creating an interactive gauge in Flash. The gauge has two needles and these needles need to be controlled by two text input boxes. That way, whenever a number is typed into the box, the needles respond accordingly. var degree = (360/intRange)*Number(strValue); var hist = (360/intRange)*Number(strHist); var mneedle = needle_mc._rotation var mpointer = pointer_mc._rotation if (mneedle < 0){ mneedle = 360 + mneedle; [Code] ......
I have been asked to create an interactive flash project where the user would be able to click on a main image and depending on what part of the image they click on, a movie clip plays, then goes back to the main image.
I am sure this is basic, but I have been researching, watching tutorials, etc for a week now and can't seem to get it to work. I am by no means a Flash expert and have really never worked in it. I do more Photoshop and Illustrator-type work. So Actionscript is new to me and really the whole interface is as well.
Would you all be kind enough to help me out? I am going to need some detailed explaination.
I'm currently having an issue creating a set of buttons that are supposed to turn individual layers on and off. The layers I have are: fishing spots, facilities, trails, map elements, an aerial photo, and parking lots. It is giving error #s 1119 and 1120. Could anyone explain possible reasons I'm getting these errors.It might be worth mentioning that I used a tutorial made with Flash CS4, but I'm writing the code in CS5. Here is the exact code I'm using:
I would like to create a interactive map of a 3D town. The idea is somehow similar to Google Street View, in which users could use their mouse to move along street, and they can view the houses on the two sides of street at the perspective view.I can model a town with a few houses with 3D Max. However , I do not clearly understand the mechanism how we can add the interaction with the 3D model in Flash, somehow similar to Google Street view? Where should I start? Would someone give me an idea, or a tip so that I could start searching tutorials related to this new technique? Now I don't know exactly where I should start searching from.
I am pretty new to flash but I am kind of getting the hang of things. I am trying to create a interactive slideshow in flash that will not end up on the web. These are three quick questions I currently have. Thanks for any help you can provide
1. Let's say I have an icon of a person in my flash file, how can I make it so that when my moves rolls over the person a thinking bubble appears and when it rolls off the bubble disappears?
2. If I have a small image of a page version of a .pdf file in my flash file, how can I make it so that when the little .pdf page icon is click the .pdf file is launched?
3. I understand how to create a square button over text and mess with its up/down/over/click settings, but I am wondering how I can do something like change the color of the text when it is clicked or when the mouse is over it? Right now I only know how to change the color of the square button.
I would like to create an interactive diagram and somebody said I should use Flash to do it.
The idea is to create an organisational chart (like the ones you can produce in MS Word 2010). Each position will have its own box or button. When a user clicks on that box or button, a Word document or internet link will be activated and take the user to this other resource.
The reason why I am choosing Flash is because I would like to make alot of these diagrams and they have to go into Moodle. Apparently Flash is the only program I should use to import the diagram into Moodle.
I want to create interactive movies using flash technologies. Do I need to buy a program from adobe to be able to create my flash movies or there are some free software that I can use? I would prefer something for Linux (Ubuntu).
ADDED: I need to program in "actionscript" and I would like to know what programs can I use to compile my code.
I want to create an interactive animated flash music website that involves the user being able to wander around a rehersal room and interact with objects.recommend a good 3d tool to use along with Flash.Ideally something that I can use Illustrator tpo draw the room /objects, but not essential.
I do have an assignemnt, deadline os tommorow 4pm. In this assignment i should create interactive video in flash. I have choosen to create game like Mortal Kombat. I have one video with 28 cue points. I made buttons that take us to the right place in the video which are hidden at the beggining but are visable when video reaches first cue point. I have created life bar which in fact is made of 5 small MC`s and I thought that if user will press kick button then one small life bar will become hidden - I have no idea how to do this.
Second thing is that I want to put mp3 file but I want it to start at the same cue point as buttons.
third - I do want to dispaly random cue point of 2, so if user will press punch button he will be taken to piece where my character hits opponent or to the piece where opponent block the punch. And I want from time to time randomly display piece of the vide where my opponent hits the character[code]...
I'm trying to create a form box in flash, where I could create a list of states -- if a user types in one of the states on the list, he or she will see information about that state, if he or she types in a state or anything that isn't on the list -- he or she would see a 'information coming soon' default.
