Flash :: Tutorial - Make Individual Pages Into Swf Pages So We Can Add Links In A Flip Book
Apr 28, 2009
Looking for a tutorial to make individual pages (jpg or gif) into swf pages so we can add links in an on-line flip book. I have flash, but have not learned as of yet.
creating a flip-book in flash (using AS3) . I've looked at the other flip-book programs and editors out there, and none really give the customization that my company wants.I have something working, but the page scoping seems to be off. The pages will turn back and forward with a button click but they flip out of order. However, it all runs fine with no error when the user clicks on the pages themselves. This is the code from the main timeline (where I'm getting an error).
I would like to add some more pages to the book (there are 8 MCs now) but I cannot figure out how to do it - which part of the AS is responsible for that? I am gazing at the code like a drunk cow but cannot find the solution.
I have played around with the pageflip tutorial on this site, i am having some issues adding more pages? {URL]. I seem to be able to increase the number in the variable, this creates more pages when I preview the project, but brings up some errors. Even when the pages are created, they are blank I'm not sure where i create the content for them? in their own movie? then where do i drop them?
I am new to the site and was wondering if there is some kind of actionscript that will automatically make the pages of a book turn like in castlevania lord of shadows opening.
i need to make several banners for individual pages of a web site. The banners will each contain different images that i want to have fade in the same way. Also, over the images will be the title of the page. I would like to load the images and text by xml.I was using the uiloader (loading images from a url) but could not figure out how use the xml file as source.Also, for the animation,is there anyway to apply a transition to the uiloader? Is the uiloader even the best way to load xml?
I've been away from Flash for a few years and I can't even do the most simple tasks now... :-/ Not being able to assign scripto buttons is really annoying. It makes thing neater to edit, but takes getting used to.I basically want to be able to flip between still pages of a virtual book. I have the pages, I added the stop(); command and two buttons. What code do I need to write to simply flip through the pages?
I was looking over the script from AS.org. for the page flip navigation.[URL]But see the thing with the script from AS.org is that it does not allow you to use images as the pages.
Ok I was looking over the script from AS.org. for the page flip navigation. Looks kinda like this awesome example. [URL]
But see the thing with the script from AS.org is that it does not allow you to use images as the pages. If anyone knows another open source or could lend a hand.
I basically want there to be a series of externally sourced pictures displayed like pages of a book, each viewed one at a time. I want to be able to move between them with the left and right arrow keys. I also would like a variety of different transitions but for now I'm just working on one. In short I have the following on my root frame:
ActionScript Code: //Declare page vars var currentpage = 1; var nextpage = (currentpage+1); var previouspage = (currentpage-1); [Code] .....
Then frame three plays through a tweened transition till frame 13 that simply contains: ActionScript Code: _root.transitions.gotoAndStop(2); From 14 to 22 is exactly the same but a transition for a page turn in the other direction. When it loads it just loads with page1 and then nothing works. (By the way, for those who look at the project file, I know the images aren't loading in the right places but I'm gonna get to that once I've got this problem sorted).
im close to finishing a project of mine, a page flip book in action script 3. i need a button to trigger the pages to flip however its throwing up 2 errors. I have uploaded my file to [URL]. note i have stripped alot of stuff out of this file to hide sensitive infomation however its still clear to see the button and what im trying to achieve.
There's a recent Apress book, Elst, Jacobs, Yard. "Object-Oriented ActionScript 3.0." Berkeley, CA, 2007. In it is this invocation of Transition classes laid out in prior pages of the book:
[Code]...
I've run the code, it's cool, I'd like to use the transition mechanism they created (beginning on page 411). In the middle of the code a .png is called up from the directory. But I have my own .jpg on the already on the stage, and I'd like to apply this book's code to that. I just want to fade out the button I already have on the stage. How can this code be rejiggered to do that? The code can be downloaded from the Apress site [URL]
I would like to have some dynamic content on the pages... I want to use it for a website. The problem is, when you click anywhere on the page, it reacts. I tried putting an MC over it to override it, I tried removing the Mouse listener temporarily... I'm not too advanced with AS, but I thought I'd give it a try... Well I just can't figure it out.
Is there any way that I could make it so that when the mouse is in a certain area and is clicked, the pages do not react like they should? With the dynamic content I'm going to need scrollbars and stuff and that just isn't going to work unless I can do this.
I am doing an animation using a parigrafika's page flip code. I have different pages being autoflipped at different speeds: Main timeline:
[Code]...
What I need to happen is if the user has ever clicked the mouse during the animation, don't run the code on the individual pages. How I have it now, it still executes when it gets to page 1,2, or 10.
[URL] On the left you will see a menu, it will be flash (actionscript MX 2004) and for the effect I want it will have to be flash. Now, heres the tricky part for me: I want those links to open up different pages inside the black center box either using frames or php. How could this be done? On the menu part, also, with the buttons, I need to make them movie clips for the effect I need for the rollover, but I want the movieclip to have a hitspace, how do I assign a movie clip a hit space.
I would like to know how to track my pages with google analytics to see which pages are getting the most clicks. My site is XML / Flash the menu is xml. Could I put the tracking code on each of the menu items in the xml file?
I have created two buttons from images, one to Facebook and one to LinkedIn.They both work perfectly in the test .swf file.When I upload them to my server, the Facebook button does not load correctlyThis is the actionscript I am using:
The thing I'm trying to do is make a list/combo drop down navigation, so that when the user drops down the box and selects that item they are taken to another .html page.
In my timeline I have different link hot spots, so that each product will link to a separate web page (externally).I don't think this is going to work:When I upload the Flash file to a server to test, the links show me the 'pointing finger' icon, but when clicked upon it does not even open another web page attempting to follow the link. - that tells me this doesn't work!I need to get this correct for when the final goes live. What am I missing? Should I try the extension? (product01.asp)
Here is my code for buttons(working)is there a way to add links to html pages to the buttons.// Catalogue Bottom Button//stop();//hide button on the stage
catBtmBut.visible = false; var catBtmmenu_label:Array = new Array("Visit: The Grange Kitchen","Visit: The Bergerie","Visit: Badens ");var catBtmtotal:Number = catBtmmenu_label.length;var catBtmpage:Number;var catBtmmain_menu:MovieClip = new MovieClip();catBtmmain_menu.x = 35;catBtmmain_menu.y = 231;stage.addChild(catBtmmain_menu);for (var catBtmi:int = 0; catBtmi < catBtmtotal; catBtmi++){ var
I was wondering how do I make a link to a new page from a page that has already been played onto the stage. The pages are made from movie clips, and the buttons are also movieclips. So for example, I click on about us from the menu bar, and the page animates on, and within that page is another link to go to another page. I just cannot get it to work. All the pages that I have are made from movie clips.
I'm using Adobe CS4 Professional flash to create the basis of the website, a photo background with an interactive menu overlay on top. Does anyone know any good tutorials for an interactive menu (roll you mouse over certain things and the sub-menu comes up which lead to other pages of the site etc.)
I'm trying out a page-flip program that tells me to create the pages as jpegs within a folder named "pages" in the Library. When I try to run it, it tells me it can't find the jpegs. I can get it to work locally by including the full URL (i.e., "...My Documentsedinnerpartiesimagesp3-large.jpg), but I know this isn't embedded in the swf file.
