Create A Vertical Slider Bar That Will Return A Ratio Between 0 And 1?
Apr 2, 2009
I am new to Flash and trying to create a vertical slider bar that will return a ratio between 0 and 1, change color while doing so, and display the resulting ratio on the side of the slider as you drag. Everything works except for the dynamic text box displaying the "ratio." I want the text box to be invisible until you drag, then display at about 70% alpha when you drag, and go back to invisible when you release (because of the 70% alpha I have decided not to use the "visible" property).
I have attempted to use the _alpha command to accomplish the above, but the actionscript appears to ignore and just display the text box at 100% alpha. I have put the dynamic textbox in a movie clip, but still can't make it work. Could I accomplish this with a rollover button covering the entire slider?
I have posted the .fla file here for your review; can anyone let me know where I'm going wrong?[URL]..
I need a vertical volume slider, but flash is crazy and instead of increasing volume as you drag it up it decreases it instead because of the origin point. the entire slider device is dragable too, so that is another dillema.
This is what i'm trying to do , get the Ratio 4:3 9:16 etc from an mp4 movie (h264) so when ill open it in fullscreen using a flash player / action script 3 it will still keep the ratio.
I would like to create a mass of images which doesn't have the same size/ratio. The images cannot overlap, but they should be placed as close to each other as possible, so you get a big picture created by a lot of small ones.
How to create vertical gradient in flex. What i currently have is a horizontal color gradient. And its working fine.

I am creating a custom video player based on some of the components provided by Flash. I would like to create a volume bar that appears on hover similar to how Youtube does it. can anyone provide me with info on how to do this or point me toward a tutorial?
I am trying to create Vertical scrolling images. I found a tutorial using AS 3.0, used that, but made a couple of alterations - like I did not want the images centered on the stage and I added more images than what the tutorial showed. As a result I have several errors in the Actionscript.
I'm trying to create a Vertical scrolling xml menu. This menu is based on [URL] "Creating 3D Carousels tutorial"
This is my code Select all var Items:Number; var xml:XML = new XML (); xml.onLoad = function () { _root.createEmptyMovieClip ("mc_Control", this.getNextHighestDepth ()); mc_Control._x = 0; mc_Control._y = 0; [Code] ......
My problem is when I add a new item in the xml file, I can't see it in the .swf file. My xml file have 37 items. I only see 24 buttons! in the .swf file and I' m stuck at this point my buttons have 26 px (_height).
I've tried to use the "Simple Custom Scrollbar" tutorial to create a horizontal scrollbar instead of the vertical. I've changed the defenitions like this:
scrolling = function () { var scrollWidth:Number = scrollTrack._Width; var contentWidth:Number = contentMain._Width;
[Code]....
I put the "Width" instead of the "height", and "x" instead of "y". What I've got is when I push on the "scrollFace" button it slides but disappears immidietly, and the the image (which is "movieclip" as well) beneath the masked area freezes.
* In addition - I have to make this scrollbar move from right to left - Is there any additional defenitions I must concern?
I was wondering if anyone knew or could point me in the direction of a tutorial that will allow me to achieve this slider effect - but without using xml The effect is exactly what I need but on the particular network I need to upload to it doesn't seem to be able to load the images, I have tested it on other sites so know it is not a error.s there a way to achieve the same effect with the images already embeded in flash?
But this is only for 1 movieclip. And I need the entire stage and everything of whats in it (except for the layer with the background image) to be moved this way. But how?Also want the scroll to be restricted to a max y-position of 860px even if the entire stage goes as far as a height of 1508px.
Any tutorial for a simple vertical navigation menu with a submenu. Like a drop down menu but vertical where the main links are on the left and the submenues come out the right side of the menu. I don't need any bells and whistles and I am just learning so it doesn't need anything but a button link when rolled over more link options appear to the right. Is there a tutorial that is not a place trying to sell me this capability and actually works (CS3), no errors, broken links etc...just a how to for a simple menu with submenus.
I need to create a custom y-axis in a columnChart that resembles a tall / skinny VBox (sorry can't post pictures) and has the axis labels (20, 40, 60, 80, 100) inside the axis.By default, the y-axis is a line and I have found methods of making the line thicker but I need the labels inside the axis.I have tried using the AxisRenderer class but can not find any good examples on the proper use.
I was going to attempt to create a vertical accordion menu with a genie effect this week.So it'll be like your normal text based accordion menu but the entries will shrink and grow depending on where your mouse is.I've never ever seen this specific type of menu before and I'd quite like to get a look at one to visualize how it should behave.

I have an animation of someone dancing, frame by frame over several frames, if I slide the timeline back and forth I can change the rhythm and speed he dances and make him dance in time to whatever is playing on the radio! I would like to make this sliding timeline an interactive element, so I want the viewer to be able to slide the position of the timeline for the dancing frames so they can make up there own routines, so they are essentially sliding through the different frames back and forth how they choose, can you point me in the direction of a tutorial for this type of thing or is this something you have done before? I guess what I am trying to achieve is similar to a rewind/fast forward slider?
Direct me to a volume slider tutorial that works for actionscript 3.0? there are some out there but they are all outdated.
I did one that enables me to mouse over an item and move it all over the screen, but I need to get it to scroll along an axis. thats where Im getting hung up.
I actually have a really cool project. an online studio that enables you to rehearse individual parts of songs that I prerecord.
I'm trying to create a slider/scroll bar similar to the one at this site: kurtnoble.com. If you'll notice, the scroll bar can "bounce" of its perimeters. I'm not very experienced with actionscript at all. so any guidance, help, etc.
I am trying to create a slider bar that also has arrows. Basically the same thing youd see on the right border of most browsers or document editors.
Everything works fine except for the following: as soon as I use the "dragger", the up/down arrows break.I've poured over this code for several hours and just cant see why. I have a distinct feeling its something to do with the nested onEnterFrame in dragger.onPress.... this.startDrag().
Anyway, here's the code:
/// -------------------------------------------------------- var ratio = 0 var spd = 7; var scroll = 0;

how to have 4 or 5 images continuing or looping at the top of a web page, no thumb nails just the images changing. This is the site I'm working on [URL], you better see what I'm trying to do.
I searched the internet and this forum but can't seem to find a logical answer to how to best set this up.
So inside my sliderMC clip I have the sliderScrubber.
Inside the sliderMC, I also have 4 mcs labeled "mc1", "mc2", "mc3", "mc4".
I have noted down the x position of each mc, but am not really sure how to use it in code? Also, how would I be able to calculate "sliderScrubber" to snap to the closest x value to each mc upon release?
How would I go about being able to slide along the x and perform the above functions?
i want to create a slider that controls 2 images and when you move the slider to half 50% it will have to show 50% of one image and 50% of another image . when i'm at 70% i want to show 70% of one image 30 of the other.the problem is that i coudn't find a way to show just half of image , i don't want to move the image to the left and animate it , simply i want to cut the image in half.
