i have a weird issue....the flash file plays properly when i test it like enter+shift then all images load correctly.but same file if i stimulate download then it doesnt load the images.
View 2 RepliesI want to stimulate sea wave,but I have no idea about it. Is there an example code for it? I know as3 can make many good graphics and text effect, so I want to learn it eagerly,but I don't know which book should I read. Anyone could introduce a good book for me about as3 algorithm? More example code are better in the book.
View 3 RepliesI have a loop where I need to download certain number of images. This comes to the problem: each image loading process is a loader class instance. The COMPLETE event is triggered by event dispatcher while image loading is completed and as d.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete) is assigned to all instances we land with a single onComplete event handler for all downloaded images. That is fine, but not in case I need to treat them all differently.Normally, I would expect something like:
d.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete, arg)
what would allow to pass additional parameter to 'onComplete' event handler to let it know how to process given image. But (of course) that would ruin AS3 creator's sense of programmatic purity, so such an easy way is not provided. Having some research I learnt that actually I need to write my own "custome event" class. More - I even found some examples... but all written is such an Aesopian language that I failed to adapt them to my scenario
So I'm trying to make a photo portfolio, and I've decided on the following strategy:
1) create an XML file that has the URL of the external images contained in <IMAGE> tags.
2) upon a button click, load said XML file, and store xml_File.IMAGE as an XMLList (i.e. photoAlbum = XMLList(myXML.IMAGE))
3) using a loop that pays attention to photoBox.length(), sequentially load each URL and add them as children to a greater container (photoBox).
Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
// create generic URL loader for XML
var xmlLDR:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
// create a container for image URL's
[Code]....
In my application user has the option to download the images. But currently i need to download multiple images

If it is a question of settings on my local computer, my own example should works online.
If it is not a question of settings on my local computer, how could the other guy's example work and not mine?
I'm very confused. At this point, my only lead is the fact that I use cs3 and he uses cs4.
suppose i have 10 image variables like this
var image1:String = http://somewhere.com/image1.jpg
var image2:string = .....image2.jpg
var image3:string = .....image3.jpg
and so forth.........
i have a timer that displays each variable as an image one a time ....
how do i "buffer" the image and display them instead of going out each time the timer runs? im asking because sometimes the server could slow or some other reason. so what i want to do is to download all those images and then display them from the clients computer. some sort like @Embed ??
I am writing a script to upload and download images. I have a cancel btn that is giving me an error, undefined method.

var URLrequestUp:URLRequest = new URLRequest;
var URLrequestdown:URLRequest = new URLRequest;
// Assign the image types Filter

The app itself will require some data from an online database to be downloaded and stored locally, so that the kiosk can be safely disconnected from the internet while running, and reconnected later to update its data.I'm currently trying to figure out the best way to do this. I figured that the data's easily enough loaded from a server-side PHP script and saved to a local SQLite database for offline usage, but I haven't been able to find any solid method of downloading and saving images. At least, not without using a save dialog.
View 1 RepliesI've made an image gallery which loads images from an XML-specified folder. My function doGallery(urlPath); is using an URL-Path as an argument, which allows me to load new images and create a new gallery with these at runtime.The function will store loader objects in a gallery array, which is then cleared and overwritten once a new gallery with new images are made.So far so good. However it seems as if I have to re-download the same images as I have already once loaded, if I decide to go back to a previously visited gallery. I assume this is because I overwrite and clear the array which contains my previous loaders. Could anyone confirm this and possibly offer a solution? I hope I'm making myself clear enough for you to grasp my issue here.
View 0 Repliesif you can do with the files that were loaded through the Loader class (or another class) remain permanently on the computer of who uploaded the application. That is, even if the person closes the browser or shut down the computer, the files remain on your computer. So when the person is running the same application will not need to wait until the files have been loaded (via download).
The person will enter in the browser page where the application is already included and you can use this application, without waiting any time since the necessary files are not on the computer. If any new files later arose in the application, this would be the only file to be loaded (downloadable) for the computer, which already found the other files that have already been loaded at another time. I can do this in actionscript 3.0? Note: Do not bother with my English because I'm using the google translator.
I am building a video wall sort of thing. I am wondering whether to use a jpg to preview content of each video or load the video's directly with only loading the first 5 frames running a loop then killing the download on the rest of the movie till requested to start again by the user. Is this possible?

I am trying to load video in to flash. using progressive download... From what i googled It was said to follow the below procedure Import video -> select already deployed on a web server -> add video url it creates a FLVPlayback component Is this the right way? I have done video loading using NetStream a lot of time considering this method as streaming, though i am not sure if what this type of loading is called..

Then, after loading a list of images from an XML file, I call a function that I called "createImages". This function then takes the list of images and creates a bunch of loaders:

I have set the Progressive-Download video instead of Streaming-Video (because my webserver provider "aruba.it" doesn't offer streaming videos), in Flash CS4 Professional, and exported to Dreamweaver CS4. I have also inserted the HTML code in Dreamweaver CS4 to enable FullScreen Playback of Flash .flv Videos.Now I have a problem:
- When the webpage loads into Internet Explorer 7, it take much time to load all the videos at same time!
Thus I want this:
- I want that the videos start to load just when I press the Play button, individually, not at same time.- I don't not want that start the load immediately when the webpage opens in IE7. - I want that the videos start to load content in the same manner of YouTube videos, just when I press play.
How can I do? What is the HTML code that I should insert into DreamweaverCS4? I have seen this help page: [URL]
At Chapter "Public Methods" I have seen this "load" function:"Begins loading the FLV file and provides a shortcut for setting the autoPlay property to false and setting the source, totalTime, and isLive properties, if given..."
I am using actionscript 3. I can load an image in a class but how do Iload a number of images eg 4 images that animate.?These 4 images are a walking sequnce of a character. I am unclear after googling an loading multi images in as3( just love google).
Loading a single image I load this into a loader Once loaded I load the image into a bitmap and add to a sprite I then add the spite to the stage Q)Now for 4 related images I load 4 loader or 4 sprites or 4 bitmaps or do every thing 4 times?I want to do collisions eventually and I need bitmaps but bitmaps seem useless to use other than collisions.Googling for answers isnt helping me clarify this!

I'm new to Flex. Let's say we have a web application that needs to download several series of data (several thousand numbers) used by one screen.When the user leaves that screen and later returns to it (in the same session; that is, the user hasn't logged out then logged back in), should the application fetch the original downloaded data from cache or simply download it again? What are pros and cons of each and are there any general rules of thumb to follow when it comes to re-downloading data (e.g. again) versus simply getting it from cache? The goal would be to minimize user's wait time as long as there's no drawback.

So I basically have used the fileReference class to allow the user to download a determined file if he wants to.
I use the file.download(URL) function and it works well.
However, the file is downloaded and saved to the hard drive using only the flash player. The browser is not aware of the download, and thus, if I want to show the progress of the download I'd have to make some progress bar myself. I know how to do it, but it would become really tedious and take too much UI space.
Isn't there a damn way in Flash to "send" a determined file to the browser so that it prompts the user to download it? It's an image file, so navigateToURL doesn't cut it since it will just display the image, both if I use a new tab or the current one.

View 3 RepliesI generate a HTML page with VB.Net which stores several pinks to files. These links are formatted with JavaScript looking like the Windows-Explorer with folders and files. The problem: There are only download links for the files, not for Folders. A folder can contain Subfolders ,a List of Files or a combination of both. So if I want to download a folder, I have to click manually on every file-link. I have not the possibility to insert PHP or another Server-side language. my question now is: Is there a client side way to Download them by click on a Folder? I prefer Javascript but If it isn't possible Flash will be ok also.
View 2 RepliesI have successfully dynamically loaded Jpegs into my flash document(using PHP), but then I have another small problem.When I dynamically load the image (example: image_icon_bluesky.jpg) I then need to tell the MC that is holding the loaded image that it needs to do this...
on (release) {
_root.image_bluesky.alpha = 100;
}
SO basically every time a new image is loaded in my sort of "loop" script. I need to tell the image that it needs to put specific code onto the MC using specific "image" details for that specific image.
I hope this is clear. Basically what I'm trying to do.On my flash stage I already have MC's that have their alpha properties set to "0". Lets say there are 3 images. One MC is called Blue, other is called Red and the last one is called Yellow.Now using AS + PHP I have dynamically loaded 3 Jpeg's .

and so on for each image....I have tried to explain this as well as I possibly can. I just wanna know if this is possible or if there is a simple way of doing it
I have a few buttons rigged up for downloading word.doc, mp3 etc
Problem is its opening the file rather than giving a download this file option.
I've got a Flex/as3 application that is embedded into my webapp. Currently we're embedding images into the swf and loading them like:
Code:
[Embed(source="images/foo.png")]
[Bindable]
public var foo:Class;
There are two things I'm trying to accomplish. The first is the images in the swf are part of a pool of images that the whole web app uses. Currently i have 2 sets of images, one set are images that the rest of my app uses, and the other are duplicates that are used by the swf.
The reason for that is build related (ideally, we could fix this, but fixing the build process is something bigger than i want to tackle at this point in time) I have a ton of images to load up and instead of having a giant ugly if/else block, i was hoping to make a naming convention for the icons, so i could just build a string at runtime and use that to load an image. Is there a way to look up embedded images via a path, or image name? It seems that images/foo.png is floating somewhere around in the swf. Can i get to it without using foo?
Code:
myImage:Image = someMagicalFunction(foo.png);
Im currently making a flash website. and trying to make it as light as possible.so decided to load images dynamically.Im using UILoaders.I drag the UILoader from components into the main timeline and set the source as 1.jpg, because the image is in the same folder as the .fla file.and scale - false
Tested the movie but nothing shows up. i guess i need some coding? but i dont know where to add the codes. on the same frame? or in frame 1? i also need the image to fade-in.the end result im looking for is, as i click a button. 3 images show up at the same time, fading in.
I have about 20 images. And on click I need the images to load in to a MC. I've used this script to each frame. (shown are example scripts are placed in two frames.
