View 1 RepliesI've been trying yo convert Lee 3D carousel tut to AS3 and it pretty much there apart from one thing. I took Lee's as2 carousel 2 and applied what I know to convert it to AS3. I couldn't work out how to re-index each item properly. When the last item in the XML should appear under an item to it's left or right it does not due to numbers being rounded from the scaleX value being too close and causing the same number to be generated from more than one item therefore last item to be processed ending up on top. I've tried a few alternatives, but nothing has worked so far. Hopefully that makes to sense to someone.
If you download the files from Lee's tutorial http:[url].... open the fla, change the publish settings to Flash Player 9+ and AS3, remove all existing AS code, check the library item linkage as I've capitalized everything and add the following to the root timeline.The code causing the problem is this in the function mover:
Code: Select allvar index:int = Math.floor(mc.scaleX*10);
Code: Select allvar loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);[code].............
how do I stop the preloader to LOAD an item when I click in another item to load.. Is that possible? Here in my example the preloader runs perfect, but when I start another mouseevent CLICK the old loading still active (on BANDWIDTH PROFILER, but the Preloader Movie Clip is removed).. How Do I stop the event when another different loading starts?Not visual aspect but functional.
View 1 RepliesI have a tutorial-based carousel navigation item for my site built, and now new XML content (CDATA) for the carousel can be loaded dynamically into the carousel depending on pressing different language buttons (example attached). After a few fails and tries, all good!
What I am trying to do is apply a preloader for the whole thing. Attached are 3 FLAs:1) 'working' shows the different language buttons working as I have them - the tooltips and expanded icons will show different XML content depending on the language button selected (English, Polish, German, Dutch - haven't created content or translated yet, but you can see different identifiers!)
2) 'preloader' shows the preloader I would like to apply to the carousel item. The layers are moved to frame ten mostly, 'Export in Frame 1' has been un-checked in properties for the 'item' and 'tooltip' library items, and a new layer containing dummy 'item' and 'tooltip' instances in keyframe 5 have been added. The AS has also been changed, but it doesn't take into account the multi-XML change as in 1 above
3) 'bridging' is my sorry attempt to bridge the gap between 1 and 2 above. I think that a separate array will be needed - one for the multi-XML and another for the way in which the preloader works, but nothing that I have done so far can get this to work. I have been banging my head on this since Saturday, the 'bridging' actions layer only contains a slight variation on some of the bonkers theories I have been trying, I've rolled back most of the changes - all to no avail though....
Can anybody please have a look at what I am trying to do and let me know what it is that I am doing wrong, or give me some pointers? The 'problem' AS sits in the keyframe in frame 10 of the 'actions' layer.
how to create a image gallery that uses arrays from a text file rather than xml (this is because the project I have now generates alot of html coding and stores it within a DB, it doesn't have any set html pages so using flash and xml is out of the question as it needs to be relative to the html page).
I have got as far as including my own way to get captions to be displayed as well....but here comes the problem, no matter what loop i have tried the captions seem to stay on the 1st caption and not change as the different thumbnails are clicked..
here is my code
Code:
var locVar = new Array();
locVar = imgLoc.split(",");
var tmbVar = new Array();
[Code].....
i have this code below that i made using a tutorial....it loads vars from txt file splits it then puts it into an array....once in an array it the brings the pics in from the array to create thumbnails and a larger image. my problem is i have captions to go with it and when i try to load the captions nothing happens or can be seen to be happening. i dont know where i am going wrong as i have no output or compiled errors

I have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?

I want to know when the same item in a tileList has been clicked so I can remove that item. All the tutorials I've found use a Change event on the tileList which doesn't fire when the same item has been clicked again.

View 8 RepliesI am using the Casousel3 tutorial and getting some cool effects but would like to make some mods - but don't really have the knowledge it seems to do them. I have tried but only succeeded in creating a rather nice white screen. I would like to be able to bring in the images via xml at 75% their original size so that when i click them I can enlarge them too 100% (part where the text comes in - have sorted the enlarging) and not get any pixelisation appearing. I would also like to be able to preload the images as they are loading (with that swirl loading graphic if possible !?)

I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on how I can resize this carousel as in the canvas size and the images. The other thing is, what do I need to do to be able to add new images to the folder so they appear in the carousel? At the moment when I do this they don't appear.[code]

View 0 RepliesI made a carousel as "Creating 3D Carousels: Part 2" but with different images(11 images, 178x175 pixels). I integrate it in aspx page. When I run the page local(on my computer), the carousel it's working but when I run the page on the server isn't working, it displays only the flash background without images. I think it's happens something when the flash tries to load the images, maybe it don't have to much time to load its. I tried to put ,in first frame, a line code, to load the xml file and after 200 frames the rest of code, but nothing(I tried that because I thought the flash doesn't time to load the xml file).
View 1 RepliesSorry if this is a little n00b-ish. I'm working in AS3. I've got an array of 8 buttons. I'm currently hiding the button that is clicked using e.currentTarget. How can I tell flash to make all the buttons that aren't the currentTarget to become visible (i.e. if a button has been hidden by previously being clicked, how do I tell it to become visible again when another button is clicked?)

With a simple array, I'm putting 7 instances of a movieclip up on stage like this:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:uint = 0; i < 7; i++){
thing[i] = new Thing;
addChild(thing[i]);
etc;
}
This is all good. I'm essentially looking to capture which 'Thing' is clicked on in some sort of variable. Currently I am using getChildIndex to get a number:
thingClicked = getChildIndex(event.currentTarget as DisplayObject);
Which gives me a reference I can use later, but this is not ideal, as the number naturally changes whenever I add others stuff to the stage.
I made a drop down menu based on xml file and some simple summation after each click of the item. This drop down menu code is based on the xml driven menu. What I need is how to make every item can only be clicked once, so once clicked, it should not be able to be clicked any more.
View 2 RepliesI have a menu with about 5 items, they all work great with this code on each one:
Code:
on (release) {
if (_root.link<>1) {
_parent["b"+_root.link].play();
_root.link = 1;
_root.play();
}}
(The number 1 changes 2-5 depending on button)
Works great, now.. When I hover over a menu item is turns green, I click it, it takes me to the right page, but I want it to stay green. And when I click another page I want the other menu item to turn green and all other revert back to regular. How do I do this?
I have a Flash carousel on my website, and I wanted to change one of the images, and delete another icon altogether. I have uploaded the revised XML file, published the new .swf (just in case), and uploaded to my Joomla site.For some strange reason, its still showing the old icons in Firefox (even though I've deleted these images from the referenced folder), and its showing the new icons in IE, only without the one image I added. Very strange.I've refreshed, created a new .swf, made sure I've saved the XML file etc but no changeThis is probably one of those amateur mistakes I think, I've thought of everything but drawing a blank at the moment.Oh i should probably mentioned that the revised carousel has 4 icons, and the old one has 5. The new image I put in has an icon of a jigsaw.XML File is as follows
<icons>
<icon image="icon3.jpg" tooltip="Ramis Software" link="/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=57&Itemid=67"/>

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if it's possible to include an swf within a javascript carousel that currently just contains stagic images. What I'm looking to do is include a flash animation within the carousel. I guess I've got two main questions: Is it possible to cycle through flash files in the same way as an image? How would I get the javascript and flash to interact so the flash file would know when it had been selected?

I want a prev / next buttons that brings the one of the carousel images to the center of the stage. Then when clicked again, it moves to the next one.

I have my buttons in place and everything is working great except calling the next icon over.
