so i have some thumbnails for a gallery and im trying to make them only appear if the user has loaded a thumbnail for it. i will let the code speak...
if (_root.mainarea.six.galleries[thumbnail].blank.myBytes <= 100) {
_root.mainarea.six.galleries[thumbnail]._visible = true;
} else {
[Code]....
i cant seem to get the operator or the measuring correct. is there some glaring error in the "<=" or something ?
I have an image gallery app that has a slider to control the width of the thumbnails that ranges from 80 to 1024. As you move the slider the thumbnails width changes to effectively scaling the image between 80px and 1024px. Below the thumbnail is some information about the image such as the name, size, dimensions, etc. There is also a set of icons that do various tasks (delete, edit, copy, etc). All of this information is located within a VBox.The problem I am having is I would like to have the VBox hide when the width of the thumbnail reaches 150 px or below. This I have been able to accomplish with the following code:
<mx:VBox visible = "{thumbnail.width > 150}">The issue is that while the information within the VBox is now not visible, the real estate it takes up is not released. In other words, there is now a blank space the exact size of the VBox. What I'd like to do is to be able to release this space. I know this is probably something simple that I'm overlooking, but today my brain is just not working,
I have pages of info I'm pulling from external files. I want my btn_next to not be visible when the last page loads and my btn_prev to not be visible when the first page loads. The btns are actually moviclips with instance names btn_next and btn_prev Here is my code:
//Stage Scale
Stage.scaleMode = "exactFit";
width_txt.text = Stage.width;

What I am trying to do I think is pretty simple.
Consider this code:
ActionScript Code:
var imageContainter:String;
var fileName:String;
[Code]....
This code appears to be working. I'm dynamically creating a bunch of movieclips that each contain an image. The also code stacks each clip on top of each other.
I'd like to be able to now set the alpha or visibility of all of those movieclips to 0 or false, except for the first one. I have other code that will set specific movieclips to display based on mouseEvents.
How do I refer to all of them? And should I be using arrays as well?
I haven't been using Flash long enough to know if I'm using Flash 8 Actionscript or Flash MX 2004 Actionscript, etc. I don't really know the difference or where to look so an explanation about that would also be helpful.I do know I'm using Actionscript 2, in CS4.Basically I'm needing help switching between sounds based on visibility of other items.I've got 15 buttons; buttons 1 to 5 making one of objects 1 to 5 visible and turning the others off, and buttons 6 to 10 and 11 to 15 doing the same for items 6 to 10 and 11 to 15 respectively.I'm trying to make three sounds play when a point on the timeline is met. Sound 1 is dependant on which of object 1 to 5 is visible, etc.Everything I've tried has either not worked or ended up with sounds overlapping/playing oddly. I can't find anything on the internet specific enough to help, so I thought I'd ask specifically.As I've said, I'm relatively new to Actionscript.
View 3 RepliesJust new to As3. I can't set visibility of movieclip inside another movieClip
ActionScript Code:
player.vidImage.visible = true;
trace(player.vidImage); // shows - [object SimpleButton]
tracing player.vidImage show [object SimpleButton]. But can't set visibility true.
VidImage is physically placed inside player MovieClip.
I have 3 text fields that display weather conditions from the Weather.com XML web service. The 3 text fields need to be visible only during a certain segment of the Flash Video that is set as the application's background. Do I use AS3 to specify visiblity? If so, how do I reference a certain range of frames in which the fields should be visible?
View 1 RepliesI have created a timeline with visibility button against each column. The timeline.swf is loaded into two empty movieclips to create a two-screen operation.

I have 8 dynamic text boxes in my scene. What I need to accomplish is setting the value of the text in the text boxes to "Ready". The number of dynamic text boxes that need to have their value set to "Ready" is based on the variable "myVar1". Which dynamic text box to begin with is based on the variable "myVar2". In the scenario below mytextbox4, mytextbox5, and mytextbox6 should all be displaying "Ready" when done.
Code:
var myVar1:Number = 3
var myVar2:Number = 4

There is one question, that is structured so there are two right answers, but when I add correct="true" to both answers I want as right only one is calculated correctly in the scoring.

My problem seems fairly simple, however, due to my limited experience with Flash I'm having some difficulty with it. Anyway, here is my problem: i'm trying to use a Photo Gallery written in Flash. The source files for it could be found in the link below:

it's just so strange that merely calling the .swf from the same directory in a different Flash project is totally making this application, useless. As I mentioned earlier, I'm a beginner or less, at Flash, so please bear with me if my problem seems dumb. Nevertheless, my deepest gratitude for anyone that can help me out with this problem.
So I downloaded this as3flvplayer script, but it hasn't been updated in over a year and has no documentation. It is based off loading the video from XML, but I would like to change it to where I can specify a URL parameter instead.

I have a main swf which has as3 code on the timeline. I have created a new small swf (a picture gallery) using external .as files (OOP) that works well on its own. I want to load the small swf (through a button on an array) into the main swf. When I click on my button in the main swf, it does not load the small swf (or I think, it cannot read the classes formed through OOP). I get the following error message:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at classes::Script()TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
