Actionscript 3 :: Preloader Simulation White Screen?
Dec 22, 2009
currently I'm having some problems with my preloader.I have an as3 class website with the following code:
public function Website() {
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, PreloaderStart);
}
private function PreloaderStart(e:Event):void {
var bt:int=loaderInfo.bytesTotal;
[code]...
I painted my stage black and when I simply run my flash file it traced "loaded" so everything is loaded well and it builds the UI. But when I simulate by pressing ctrl+ enter twice I get a white screen and after about 10 sec. (my swf is 1mb and it simulates at 100kbs) it displays the preloader instantly at 100% and loads my UI. So my text doesn't change from 0% -> 100% but I just get 100% when everything is loaded.
I followed a tutorial on gotoandlearn.com and followed it to a "T," yet cannot troubleshoot this myself. I built a simple preloader in AS2, but when I simulate the download for a Flash website in Adobe Flash CS4, all I see is a white screen, then it continues to the website. I previewed the bandwidth profile and I can see that it's working it's preloading magic; I just can't see the animation.
I looked through numerous forums and I am not using an components that are exported to the first frame -- at least that I know of. Has anyone experienced the same issue?
I'm trying to preload external swf files as needed and show the progress each time a file is being preloaded. It works exactly as intended when I simulate it on my desktop but not at all when uploaded on the web: first of all nothing happens up until 50% of the main movie is already loaded and then when the the attempt is being made to load additional content, some weird number displays (-214...%) instead of the percentage. Take a look: [URL]

I found a tutorial online to do a Image Slideshow. [URL]. But, I can not get anything to work. I am new to this and unfortunately do not have time to do any formal training right now. Probably when this project is done. When I "test movie" I just get a white screen w/ nothing on it. I should be getting a box 500x500 w/ a box that is 400x400 for my frame. I just finished step 3, and I do not get my frame box like a should.
Here is what my .xml document says: <slideshow width="400" height="400" speed="5"> <image url="images/1.jpg" /> <image url="images/2.jpg" /> <image url="images/3.jpg" /> .....
And here is the action script. var myShowXML = new XML(); myShowXML.ingoreWhite = true; myShowXML.load("slideshow.xml"); myShowXML.onLoad = function() { [Code] .....
Should bring up a login when you go to that site. However in Chrome It seems to be loading something and then I just get a blank white screen. Sometimes it loads but if you then hit refresh it will bring you to a blank white screen instead of reloading. Also interestingly if you are staring at the white screen, if you double click, click drag click around alot on the page it will come up kind of like its there but not being displayed. this problem only displayed in Chrome -- IE, Firefox, safarii etc. Perhaps my HTML is bad? I can't believe that because when I use the raw-HTML output from a publish in CS5 It is still giving me this behavior? Also others have had this problem with my site so it isn't just my browser/computer combo.
I have a slideshow that is set up to run on an LCD screen. The problem is the slideshow turns to a white screen when left running overnight. I would like the slideshow to continuously play without having to do a browser refresh each day. I am thinking there is some build up of memory that is causing the problem. I have a loop to continually check my xml file to see if anything has been updated.
I am working on a website right now and when I go to the html version of it, all it does is just sit there. A blank white screen for maybe a minute and hwen it finally loads the preloader only comes up for a half a second.
I just started working on a preloader screen that includes a preloader mask over a logo and a percentage dynamic text. I can get either or to work but not both at the same time. I notice that if I remove stop(); I can get the percentage to work but not the preloader image. With the stop(); embedded the image preloader works but the percentage doesn't.
I tried to create this preloader and test it but it seems not to work. I saw this tutorial, i tried to do it but unfortunately it doesn't work for me. I want to do it the easiest way possible. just : a loading bar ( white line) a background bar ( a blu background bigger line ) a AS ( which i am not able) i sent the file in attachments please look at the AS inside the symbol, an tell me where i'm wrong
have just built a website in Dreamweaver CS4 which has a different Flash banner on each page with a fade in/out text. My problem is that in Firefox the whole screen flashes white for a second when moving from page to page. It seems to work fine in IE. The link is [URL]
All my scripts are being loaded non-blocking, all are before except for one in but I tested removing it and the white flash is still happening on page loads.All my stylesheets are using link rel in the head. I'm out of ideas.
I was looking at making a site similar to this [URL]..The way the white frame scales into whatever the screen res is with no distortion and the center movie I have code to allow that to stay centered, but not sure how you restrict it from overlaying the frame thats on top of that.
Basically I was just seeing if anyone was able to replicate this exact movie, with out the graphics, and I can build the rest. If you need code that I have sourced already that is fine. I can send some of that.
I have the Netbook version of Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat and installed Google Chrome stable. I installed the latest version of Adobe Flash.Here is the behavior:1. YouTube videos appear as a white screen when embedded on the page in Chrome. I hear sound.2 The video is normal when I switch to full-screen mode.3. HTML5 videos display normally in Chrome4. Firefox displays YouTube videos without any problem.5. Ubuntu Lucid 10.4, with the same software components, displays YouTube video in Chrome without problems.Any thoughts on correcting this odd problem?
Not sure why this is happening but everytime I test a movie (CTRL+ENTER) in Flash movie it produces a blank white screen. I even created a new Flash file with a simple Shape but it still gives me that blank white screen when I run test movie. It does, however, run correctly when I click the *.swf that got generated. I'm not sure if my work recently upgraded me to a newer version of Flash Player.
I am making a website. Client's requirement is full browser will be flash but content will be fixed. There is a line in the header which will scale full browser.
Please check the attached rough layout. Red border will be removed. Now it is a guide of flash movie. I need to make white line in the header full screen and rest of the movie fixed size. Scrolling no problem.
my problem is about not being able to make a complete full scale website using flash. for testing I coded a colored square(no outliner), (made it a movie symbol and named BG) in flash to fit stage height/width;
If I open the swf directly I see that it is completely covering whole window (no matter how much I rescale the window). But when I open html, it is covering the window -2mm on all sides (those 2mm are left white)? and when i rescale the window that white areas are kept and the rest is covered with image. I tried to make
BG.x = -100; BG.Y = -100;
to check whether it would fill top left part, but still those areas are left white.
This issue is being tracked on the facebook-actionscript-api site here:url...What steps will reproduce the problem? Call FacebookMobile.login( APP_ ID, cbLogin) on an Android tablet.Enter Facebook account credentials and press "Login".What is the expected output? What do you see instead?The login window closes and returns to the screen that launched the login window. The callback function 'cbLogin' is called.The screen goes completely white, and has 'Success' in small black text in the >top left corner of the screen. The callback function 'cbLogin' is never called.What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
-Android v3.2 -facebook-actionscript-ap v1.7 -ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101
I've tested this on 2 Android phones, the HTC Incredible (Android v2.2) and the HTC Thunderbolt (Android v2.2.1), and it works fine on both.
I've looked high and low for an answer to this and I'm hoping someone has an answer, or at least a tip on how to avoid it.I'm loading a static HTML file into a container via the jQuery load() method. This static HTML file has a script which loads a swf. When I load that particular file, I get the white screen of death (WSOD) and the page explodes and everyone in the room dies a horrible death.I've had this happen also when using the jQuery wrap methods (wrap, wrapOuter, etc.) when a swf is present.It seems manipulating the DOM with a container that has a swf object causes this. Does anyone have a solution or a way that I can prevent it happening?
I'm trying to compress a video into an flv for my flash file. When I compress the video using flash video encoder the video shows up white but I can see the audio. The original version is compressed using H.264. I don't know enough about codecs to know why its not showing video.
I designed a website for a company recently, and had a preloader screen for it.Now that its uploaded,when I visit the website, the browser downloads all the data first before displaying it, alright.But the preloader screen doesnt appear. When I simulate download in the swf, it shows the preloader screen properly.The AS on the 1st frame is something like this:
I have a preloader in the fist frame of my movie. My movie has child movies (photo galleries). These are swf files that are linked to the main movie. When I simulate download, the preloader does not show up the fist 50% of the loading time. Then it shows up and works fine. I went to the loader in the Library. Under Linkage, I clicked EXPORT and uncheked "export in first frame". It didn't work. I have still the same problem. Can anyone help me. I am using Flash 3 Action Script 2 Additionally, when I simulate loading my photo galleries that are linked to the main movie don't show up. this is the code that I am using for the preloader: stop(); LoaderInt = setInterval (Lbar, 10); function Lbar (){ if(getBytesLoaded() >= getBytesTotal()){ play(); clearInterval(LoaderInt); } fill_MC._xscale = (getBytesLoaded()/getBytesTotal()*100); }
I got a movieclip named LoadingProgress (exported in first frame and class name LoadingProgress), inside it is a dynamic text box with instance name percentDisplay This is the code for LoadingProgress.as
I've been trying to get this preloader working for days! I finally got it working, and now when I upload it to my site and refresh the page, the .swf file is stuck at the preloader screen.
This is my code: //Stop Framestop(); //Create a listener to call the loading function as the movie loadsthis.loaderInfo.addEventListener (ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loading); //Runs when the loading progress has changedfunction loading(event:ProgressEvent):void{//Determine the percent loaded from bytesLoaded and bytesTotalvar percent:Number = event.bytesLoaded / event.bytesTotal * 100; //Stretch a progress barprogressBar.scaleX = percent / 100; //Set the progressText text box to the percent loadedprogressText.text = int(percent) + "%"; //When the load is finished, go to frame 2if(percent == 100){this.gotoAndStop(2);}}
i have my movie set up to load an external swf or image into an empty movieclip which allows the image to streach to the full size of the browser window.the question is that i want there to be a preloader on the transition between the images as they will be relatively large sizes, i want to recreate something similar to:...where the preloader takes up the whole window similar to how the images will be working
I have used this method before to make a preloader. But this time for some reason the screen is blank until the movie is finished loading. The bandwidth profiler says I am on frame 0.
[Code]...
I have been comparing this to another project (that uses the same code)and it loads fine in Simulate Download and BWProfiler says frame 1 while loading. There are no differences in the Public Settings, or any other settings I can see...
I have a small problem with a preloader in Flash MX. It seems to become stuck at "frame 0" instead of showing the preload bar, etc...and I didn't know there was a "frame 0"? When I test it with "show streaming", the screen is blank and the preloader doesn't show, then, when the movie is done loading, the preloader flashes up briefly. I have 2 frames on my main timeline. Frame 1 is the preloader, and frame 2 contains a clip which constitutes the main movie. Frame 2 has stop() and both are labelled correctly i.e. when the movie is finished loading gotoAndPlay("movie") (frame 2) is executed.
I want to create a preloader that is essentially a block of colour moving across the whole stage (610 x 300 pixels) - i don't want it to show the percentage loaded, just the colour will move across the screen and obviously when it reaches the other end, that will indicate that it has loaded all the external swfs and goes onto play them....
