I made a photo gallery website. Now I built a simple preloader in the first frame. When getBytesTotal=getBytesLoaded, then gotoAndPlay(2). There are NO library items exported in first frame (but there are items exported for Actionscript), BUT the preloader only appears when already 60% is loaded!Anyone any ideas what the MC does load before entering the first frame?
View 7 RepliesI added a simple preloader to my website in the 1st frame. When all is loaded, the movie continues to the 2nd frame. I had a few library items exported as actionscript and exported in first frame. I unchecked ALL export in first frame checkboxes. BUT (although my movie now misses a few MCs), my preloader still only appears when already over 60% of the movie is loaded. What is still being loaded before the movie enters 1st frame?
View 4 RepliesI'm in the middle of optimising a site, to which end I've constructed a preloader / welcome screen. My problem is that although the preloader apparently works (as in the bar moves and a numerical "percentage loaded" value is displayed), it only appears once the rest of the site is 80-90% loaded, i.e defeating its purpose.....?

It seens perfct but I can't see it work. The funny thing is that the custom currentBubble - with a dot after you see the code hints but a dot after pb100 - you see no code hints. Well not normal.

I've concluded that I have to use several Loaders. At first I was thinking "oh well I just use sixteen loaders", but do I have to? Maybe I should create only eigth of them? Then I found this tutorial. If I'm correct I just have to create eight Loaders, then addChild to correct img1/img2?
View 1 RepliesSo I created an animation with a preloader and a button. Whenever I view the animation in CS4, I get some null object reference errors- however, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why.
I decided to open the document in CS5.5 on my school computer- the animation worked perfectly! No errors anywhere. I exported the .swf file and opened it again on my laptop with CS4.
I have a project of slideshow of images, it this with some defects, example, I have 10 pulled images being, but in the first time that I bring up to date one f5 in the HTML or Ctrl+enter in the flash, it alone he shows to 9 images it to me does not show the second image, and he finishes it is blank, does not appear nothing, but if I to leave it twirling, in the second time it shows the second image but he finishes it continues blank, acontence always, exactly if in param of the HTML I to only place 3 images, happens the same thing, follows the action.

how to make text acting as a preloader so that its color changes as preloader percentage. i dont mean how to apply the math, i mean how to mask it or whatever action to achieve that effect?
like for example imagine the red is constantly growing to the right letter by letter (actually pixel by pixel:
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.

View 2 RepliesI'm just wondering if it's possible to have a page of text that is 'invisible' (for want of a better word) and when you move your mouse over the page, the text appears in a circle (of whatever radius) around the mouse point.The text would be clearest and darkest at the mouse point, and fade out towards the outer circle, and 'appear' smoothly as the mouse is dragged around the white page.

Is there some undocumented feature about what characters can't be used in instances and button/movie definitions?

Im really stumped here the test site is at[URL]..where when you go to services, then the second button in the dropdown when you click on it loads an empty movie clip, but then for the "services" dropdown its behind the empty clip now and I cannot access anything else within that dropdown.
I have everything on my index in layers with the navigation bar section on layer 3 then the picture with the bird on layer 2. The navigation bar(layer 3) is a set of dropdowns which are movie clips, "services, logistics, etc" with buttons within each for the dropdown selections. I have the actionscript for each dropdown on the 20th fram of the movie clip(it goes from frame 1 to frame 20 on rollover of each movie clip). The script then is this on frame 20

I'm building a portfolio section of our website where we have several sections for example: TVC, DigiFX, Audio, etc.I have one xml file controlling that part which works a treat. The script reads the xml and places (depending on how many nodes are in the xml) x number of tv screens in a carousel style layout where the user can select a category. Now this is where things go pearshaped... When a user selects a 'TV' a variable is set to tell which category was selected and loads the appropate xml for that section.
I have a few traces which gives me this output:
SelectedTV = _level0.TV0
Current XML playlist= portfolio/TVC_playlist.xml
videos Array =
videos Array 0 = undefined
flvTitle 0 = undefined

...and I have 7 <video url="" flvtitle="" desc="" client=""/>
P.S. This was done with CS3 but using AS2, since i first started the project with F8 and don't have the time at the moment to convert it to AS3.
these are dynamic textfields, and everything is tweened from alpha 0 to 1 at inital loadand this screenshot is taken like one second before second one; look at the first picture, the text is all nice and crisp:now look at the second one, when it tweens to alpha 1, it looks like there is a "second pass" of text over the inital one it looks like it doubled itself:
View 2 Repliesi want that a MC appears randomly on the stage but with the time...like 1 second, and then after 1 second, it randomly appears somewhere else on the stage (800x600).
View 6 RepliesI am wondering how to make the MC "bonus" appear at random times onto the stage and stay until the MC has stopped playing or it has been clicked on.
I.e
- after 5 seconds, "bonus" appears on stage.
- the 20 frames inside the MC play and then it disappears.
When i use the command
menus.setDepth (2)
I get another instance of the same movie appearing over top of the original on the specified depth of 2. Both are visible.Is this the way its supposed to work or is there a way to get rid of the old instance on its original depth?

i tried the tutorial that teaches you how to create a preloader....i followed the instructions and it still doesnt work! what's wrg?[code]on my first frame actions....i put the "gotoAndPlay (36)" cause i tried a previous preloader that took more than 1 frame and didnt want to change my button's "goTo" frames...but i figured it wont change anything..anyways, i put that line of code as my first frame action....by double clicking the timeline..then i create a symbol for that frame 1 and created an animation.

View 1 RepliesI have a complex workflow movie that is almost entirely loaded with dynamic text populated by XML files. The problem is that when I view the movie the dynamic text doesn't always appear on some frames. If I click back out of the frame and then click back into it the dynamic text appears.
To simply what I am talking about:Frame 1 has a button on it that opens frame 2.The button on frame 1 is clicked and frame 2 opens however no text is displayed.The 'back' button on frame 2 is clicked returning the movie to frame 1The button on frame 1 is clicked and frame 2 opens again, but this time all the text displays as it should.The coder bangs his head on the table and exclaims 'WTF?'

I'm building a portfolio site for myself. When I load the Thumbnails class directly into the FLA, it works flawlessly. But when I load it into another class as an instance or through extends, nothing shows up. could post the code but there's a lot of it. There must be a very common explanation for this sort of no-show problem, right?this.addChild(thumb);for every dynamic instance loaded and it pulls a trace, but doesn't appear.
