Unknown Amt Of Dynamic Pics To Be Loaded And Shown In A Swf File
Hi,

ok, i would like to know first if this is at all possible:
i want to build at "news" section in a flash website for a customer of mine. i would build the template for it (where the text and pictures should go, etc) but my customer wants to be able to type up his own text and upload his own pictures. ok, i have the dynamic text going on (i know how to do that part) but how do i do the dynamic pictures part?


i want it so that i dont have to update the .swf that is supposed to load and show all these new pictures and all my customer has to do is upload whatever and who knows how many pictures he wants on to the server and it will be automatically called up into the .swf file when it is shown.

please let me know if this is at all possible and if it is, can you please help me in finding some kind of tutorial for that? ive been looking in the tutorial sections, but what i found on dynamic pictures is that they all knew how many pictures would be used, in my case i dont know how many pictures my customer wants to have on his news page.

thanks in advance!

Flash Is Not Shown In Safari Or Firefox 3 But Is Shown In Ie6
hello guys
I would appreciate if any of you could tell me any suggestion to fix this flash object I have on the top left square of this site www.arreglaordenador.com
It turns out that there is another bigger flash object which is gray and black and appears only at the presentation. This second flash object is shown well in ie6, safari and firefox. But why the other flash object, the one on the top left cornet of the page is just shown in ie6 but not in safari or firefox 3?
Thanks in advance

Jpg Are Not Shown In My Movie After I Put It Online
Hi,
i have made a Fotogallery and the Fotos are uploaded via loadmovie.
So, however everything is working fine on my local machine. But after putting it online everything is but the jpgs aren't shown, which makes my Fotogallery quite boring ;-).

Does anybody has an idea what the problem can be?

I havent a clue. Is there a way to use trace while it is online?

If somebody wants to have a look, here is the link...
Jans Fotogallery

Ok. I put a loader in to see if something is happening and the pics seem to load.

Thanks for any help.

MC Ploader %age Count Up Is Not Shown As Movie Loads Onto Another One....
xy100c.swf is loaded by means an empty (instance name is xy100c)
mc unto intro.swf which is loaded on level 10 over a basemovie.swf (this one level0);...


Quote:




loadMovie("swf/xy100c.swf","xy100c");




the test with bandwith profiler reveals xy100c.swf´s preloader is perfectly operational ;
however in the site as "xy100c.swf" loads the percentage counting up is not shown (there is a light movie clip to entertain during pre loading which works fine) ;
the question is , what´s amiss ??
Thank you all for the attention


PS:-
p loader code is the well known :


Quote:




totalK = getBytesTotal()/1000;
loadedK = getBytesLoaded()/1000;
remainingK = totalK-loadedK;
percentageK = Math.round((loadedK/totalK)*100);
if (loadedK>=totalK && totalK != 0) {
gotoAndPlay (3);
}

[F8] Can't Create Text Link After Flash Movie Is Shown
Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me out with this. I'm pretty new to flash so I barely even know anything there is to know about it. I've looked around on tutorials for this, but I can't seem to get anything to work.

What I want to do is show a movie clip for the introduction of my website and then when it is finished showing I want to show a link that will lead into my homepage. I've got a preloader working for it and the movie loads up just fine for it, but my problem is for when the movie is done. After the movie has finished, I can't add a Text Link to have it lead to my homepage.

When I put in a text link in the next frame, it stays on top of the movie the entire way through. I've tried to put a stop action on the frame of the movie, but then movie shows and stops when it is finished. I have no clue as to how to move the scene along to the next frame with the text link in it.

There's probably a really easy solution to this, but could someone please help me?

Problem With Filter : Shadow Is Shown To A Movie Clip But Not To Another One
drop shadow has been applied to 2 different mcs , with the 1st one the effect is shown perfectly , however with the 2nd mc (basically text that was converted to a movie clip just to apply a bit of shade) the effect is not visualized. Is there any reason for this problem to happen ?

Snow Effect Without The Mouse Effects Required [asdvanced Snow From Free Source]
Hi all.

Managed to find this really cool snow effect but trying to remove the mouse interaction, but in doing so the snow seems to stop or fade after five or ten seconds due to removing the mouse elements, however if they are in place without any hit with the mouse the snow still continues to fall regardless so in effect I need the snow to keep running without any effect from the mouse, here is the actionscript as below. Any help would be great.

cheers


ActionScript Code:
//var total = 0;//function setQuality(thisSpeed) {    if (thisSpeed == 1) {        total = 100;    } else if (thisSpeed == 2) {        total = 300;    } else {        total = 400;    }}setQuality(_global.speed);/////////////////////////////////////function createParticles() {    for (var i = 0; i<total; i++) {        this.ele.attachMovie("bit", "bit"+i, i++);        var clip = this.ele["bit"+i];        clip.force = 0;        clip.mn = 1+Math.random()*1.5;        clip.x = Math.random()*2-0.75;        clip.y = Math.random()*2;        clip._x = (Math.random()*this.frame_mc._width)+left;        clip._y = Math.random()*200-220;        clip._xscale = 70+Math.random()*290;        clip._yscale = 70+Math.random()*290;        clip.ct = Math.floor(Math.random()*60);        clip.c = 0;                clip.onEnterFrame = function() {            this.c++;            if (this._x<_x/*mouse*/) {                this.x -= this.force;            } else {                this.x += this.force;            }                                    if (this.force>0) {                this.c = 0;                this.force *= 0.6;                if (this.force<0.05) {                    this.force = 0;                }            }                        if (this.c>this.ct) {                this.x = Math.random()*5-1.5;                this.c = 0;                this.ct = Math.floor(Math.random()*60);            }                        this._y += (this.y+this.mn)-(this.force*9);            this._x += this.x;            if (this._x<left-5) {                this.x = Math.random()*5-1.5;                this.force = 0;                this._x = right+2;            }            if (this._x>right+5) {                this.x = Math.random()*5-1.5;                this.force = 0;                this._x = left-2;            }            if (this._y>_y/*mouse*/-25 && this._y<_y/*mouse*/+25 && this._x>_x/*mouse*/-35 && this._x<_x/*mouse*/+35) {                this.force += Math.random()*5;            } else if (this._y>=bottom+5) {                this.force = 0;                this.x = Math.random()*5-1.5;            }        };    }}///*function clearAll() {    for (var i = 1; i<=total; i++) {        removeMovieClip(this.ele["bit"+i]);    }}*///createParticles();//stop();

Get Value/source Of LoadMovie() After Loaded
OK... this is sort of weird and I'm sure people are going to be thinking "why would you ever want to do this" but just stick with it

I have a query flash set up and through it you specify different parameters for which to search though a database of pictures. Any picture matching the parameters are loaded in to flash using loadMovie(). I have a blank movie clip which I am duplicating for every result of the query.

At this point everything is working fine. Every picture is dragable and is set up to have the proper depth (reverse order). What I want to do is make a hot spot so that you can drag this picture to it and by releasing it on this hotspot, it will open something else. The hotspot/dragging/something else isnt the problem - it's determining which picture is released on this hotspot.

By looking at the code below, you may be able to get a better idea of what I need. _read[i] is a value like 1.jpg or 2.jpg. I have the database set up so that in one folder there are the fullsize images (380x285) and a subfolder of this with the thumbnails (100x75). What I want to do when releasing a picture on the hotspot is read this _read[i] value (basically the source of the picture) so that I can take this value and open a window and grab some new content according to what was released on the hotspot.


Code:
_read = read.split("|");
for(i = 0; i < _read.length; i++)
{
duplicateMovieClip("blank", "blank" + i, _read.length - i);
loadMovie(_read[i], "blank" + i);
setProperty("blank" + i, _x, random(450));
setProperty("blank" + i, _y, random(325));
}


That just takes a movie clip named "blank" and duplicates it once for every search result.

It's important to note that I cannot hardcode this because I don't know what the search results will be. If anybody is familiar with Classes in languages like C++, what I'm basically trying to do is create a data member inside each instance of the MC named "blank" and recall this data when releasing the MC on the hotspot.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Using A Loaded SWF For Which I Don't Have The Source File
Hi everyone,

Hopefully this is an easy one for you... I have a loaded SWF that plays through and stops at the end. Once it ends, I'd like the main timeline to proceed to the next scene, to continue with the demo.

Is there a way to do this without having to have access to the FLA for the loaded movie?

Thanks!

Formatting Text That's Loaded From External Source.
I have a news page which a client updates themselves by editing a txt file and uploading it. The problem with this is that the text is all in the same font / color / size.

Is there a way round this problem? Maybe using a html file instead of a txt file? (I'm not sure how I'd do that). What about using multiple variables? I don't know!? I'd be very grateful to anyone that can help.

thanks.

Note: I don't want to use any php / asp etc

Accessing Variables Loaded From An External Source
Hi,
I'm trying to load variables into flash from an external source and then, depending on whether the variable is true or false, make a movieclip do something.

so my external source is like this:

Quote:




&myVar=true&






and my loadVars is like this:

Quote:





var here = this;
my_lv = new LoadVars();
my_lv.load("external.txt");
my_lv.onLoad = function() {
booVar = this.myVar;
};





I have a text field on the main stage with a variable name of booVar and when the data is loaded in it displays 'true'

what i want to happen then is the movie clip on the stage to look at the variable 'booVar' and if its true, to start playing the movie clip

the code inside the movieclip is like this:

Quote:





stop();
if(_root.booVar == true) {
play();
}






am i just being dumb? can someone help me

Changing The Source Of A Movie Clip
I'm working on this game that I'm using a tutorial here to make. You can take a look at it here: http://www.underonescene.com/bens_fo...ninjagame.html

I wanted to know if anyone can tell me what the syntax would be to change the source of the movie clip to something else. I want to make it so that when you hit a certain key, it changes the source of the regular ninja to a crouched ninja, and then on release, back to normal. I can only think of the syntax that you would do this in JavaScript, but I don't know much actionscripting. I appreciate any suggestions.

Source For Movie & Sound Controls?
I'm starting to create Flash applications where I'll be importing many video clips and I need to find a source for a good control strip that has Play, Rewind, Pause, Stop, plus a slider that can slide forward/backward through the clip.

I also would like a Volume control slider as well. What I'm hoping to create is a good template or two that I can always use as a shell to place on the web for playing/controlling/choosing video clips.

I was able to create my own custom buttons for this in Flash, but isn't there a set of available control bars/strips all ready to go that can be inserted into a Flash project? I haven't seen anything like that though it must be available. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel if I don't have to!

Thanks for any suggestions!

Load Movie External Source
Hello I asked this question and someone replied with this below. I think they assumed I knew more than I do. If someone could provide a idiot-proof breakdown of this that would be great. As specific as can be please. (i.e, frame 1 i- 1 a= 103...what frame 1, on the scene, movie clip)
Each subject- does that mean each picture or each category on the site nav. as you can see I am wet as wet can be..behind the ears I mean I am male


I used something like that for my site. Each subject is a seperate .swf, jpg are loaded without using php or xml.

For example:

Code:



FRAME 1

i = 1
a = 103 // number of pictures

FRAME 2



MovieClip.prototype.loadPic = function(pic) {
this.loadMovie("subdir1/subdir2/image"+pic+".jpg");
};





containerMC.loadPic(i);
snr = i+"/"+a;
but1._visible=false;
but1.onRelease = function() {
if (i>1) {
i--;
containerMC.loadPic(i);
snr = i+"/"+a;
but2._visible=true;
}
if (i==1) {
but1._visible=false;
}
};
but2.onRelease = function() {
if (i<a) {
i++;
containerMC.loadPic(i);
snr = i+"/"+a;
but1._visible=true;
}
if (i==a) {
but2._visible=false;
}
};
stop();



LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
- create empty movieclip, place it in your scene, frame2, give it the instance name containerMC
- create two buttons, place them in your scene, frame2, give them the instance name but1 // but2
- upload your pictures to the directory you define (/pictures or /pict/fun)
- your pictures are named: image1.jpg, image10.jpg etc.etc.

View Source ActionScript Code From Any Flash Movie?
I received an invitation to a Flash MX seminar in my area and one the topics was "View ActionScript source code from any Flash movie." Whoa ... I didn't know Flash MX did that. Here is what the description said: Now we have made it easy for you to uncover exactly how any Flash movie was made. You will discover the secret techniques hidden in any Flash movie that inspires you.

You gain access to every hidden element of a Flash movie. This includes their coveted Action Script source code which you can cut and paste for use in your own movies.

Well I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand ... great !! Now I will be able to see how my favorite effects are created. But on the other hand ... bummer! I don't mind sharing most of the code I create, but some of it I don't want known.

Here are my questions: How is this done? And is there a way to not allow people to see certain ActionScript?

Also, what do others out there think about this feature?

Controlling Timeframe In A Flash Movie From External Source
Hi all

I've been mustering at this for a while now. All forums give you good advice (though novice) of controlling web pages from within FLASH: Obvious this is a no-brainer. But is there a possibility to do the contrary like controlling a flash in a frame from a hyperlink in another? If someone can shed light on this one for me, i personally hand you a free cocktail at my bar! (that's if you ever come over where i live)

Scale & Load Movie Problem . Source Attached
Hello,

Trying to figure the scaling and loading of movie clips. I'm a newbie when it comes to action script so I have limited knowledge.

I have 3 problems.

The first problem is when I click the first button it scales and loads the movie, but if I click the second button right away it just loads the other movie without scaling.

The second problem is I would like to have the menu included in the scaling movie (just attached)
I tried everything but it scales the buttons as well

The third and last problem I have is. How can I make it so it just scales the inside of the movie. I noticed the border scales from 1 pixel to 5-6 pixels. Any way it can keep the size or thickness?

Thank you for you help.

Picking The Destination Inside A Movie From External Source
I have a flash movie on the index page. When it is finished playing, the movie displays buttons that show additional text. The site is designed so once you leave the index page there isn’t much of a reason to return to it. Except to watch the movie again.

My dilemma is, my client wants the buttons in the index movie replaced with links to their other websites. So, once the user leaves the index page and decides to visit one of the other websites he/she will have to go back to the home page, reload the Flash movie and wait for the websites to be displayed again.

My question is, is there a way to send the user to the index movie and have the movie go to the frame that displays the websites, without playing the entire movie?

Scale & Load Movie Problem . Source Attached
Hello,

Trying to figure the scaling and loading of movie clips. I'm a newbie when it comes to action script so I have limited knowledge.

I have 3 problems.

The first problem is when I click the first button it scales and loads the movie, but if I click the second button right away it just loads the other movie without scaling.

The second problem is I would like to have the menu included in the scaling movie (just attached)
I tried everything but it scales the buttons as well

The third and last problem I have is. How can I make it so it just scales the inside of the movie. I noticed the border scales from 1 pixel to 5-6 pixels. Any way it can keep the size or thickness?

Thank you for you help.

Training From Source: Source Files..
Thought I'd try here.. I have the FlashMX2004 actionscript training from the source book and my cd cracked.

I have't been able to find a location yet where I can download all the code.

It's more a lazy thing I guess, but I also like to have the 'correct' stuff before I mess with it.

Does anybody know where I can download the code from? Or, is there anyway a nice fat zip could be sent to me? (kelly@thumbslinger.com)

I can prove ownership by any means necessary (other than a receipt as the book is old but still viable)

Thanks

Addressing Specific Frame In Flash Movie From Html Source
Hi there,

I have an external html text source, which is loaded via loadVariablesNum into flash movie "A" (this movie is located within html page "Andrew"). From this html text source I have to address a specific frame (i.e. "5") within a flash movie "B" (this movie is located within html page "Brian").

Since I have to adress the frame from within the html text source the addressing must be in html code.

But what the hey do I write into the html text source which is loaded into "Andrew"?

<A HREF="http://www.example.ch/brian" TARGET="_self">Brian</A>

But this doesn't get me to frame 5 ?!?!?

Or do I have to celebrate something with myfunction?

<a href="asfunction:myfunction999"><u>Brian</u><a/>

And in the flash movie I write:

function myfunc999(){
getURL("brian.html", "_self");
}

But then I'm still not at frame 5 in "Brian" (?!?)

Has somebody please some smart idea?

regards from
goldader

No Images Shown
We have accessed an icon flow like itunes. Everything works perfectly natively on my machine but the moment I test the object tag in a separate web page it all works and except the icons to do not show up. We have created a separate xml document for changes and it is being read but the artwork is not showing up.

Any thoughts?

Actionscript, PHP Shown
Well, I will try to explain.
First, the FORM: it consists of 9 areas of input. Household --input field next to it and there are input fields next to each of the others: Your Water Supply, Your Present Water Softner, Where do you get your bottled water from, Comments, Name/Business, Address, City-State-Zip, Phone, Email.
QUESTION: can one have that many areas, 9 areas for viewer to input?
The ACTIONSCRIPT for the FORM:
on (release) {
form.loadVariables("analysisformphp.php", "POST");
}
-------------------
SUBMIT BUTTON is on the form at bottom. (it is a movie clip with instance name button. It shows the icon for movie clip in Properties; however, it shows in Component Inspector with a button icon)

The ACTIONSCRIPT for the SUBMIT button:
on (release) {
form.loadVariables("analysisformphp.php", "POST");
}
----------------------

In the PHP file, the script is:

<?php

$sendTo = "art.design@comcast.net";
$subject = "Analysis form reply";

$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . "<" . $_POST["email"] .">
";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "
";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];
$message = $_POST["message"];

mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);

?>

XML Menu Not Shown
I posted this question yesterday but can't find it today, so weird? I have searched all posts/threads started by me.
I have a swf/fla which pulls data from xml to constuct a menu. All the menu items are shown probably on my development machine but they disappeared when I move the files (fla & xml) to the server. I suspect that it is an access authority issue on the xml file 'casue I can see everything (graphic and static text) except the xml driven part. I am using windows server 2003 and I have already granted full control right of the xml file to IUSR and NETWORK SERVICE but still doesn't work. Has anybody come across the same problem? Or anybody has a clue what the problem might be? Please help!!!! Appreciated.

Tweens Before Shown
Whenever I use Tweenlite or any programmatic tweening method it often tweens my items before they are ready to be tweened, if that makes sense.

For example, when I say tween box to x position 600 and publish my movie it will tween from some in-between value like it's too fast for its own good. Is there an easy fix to this?

Thanks

Sums Results Shown To 2 D.p.
If I add two variables that are numbers eg

number(varNum1) + number(varNum2)

if varNum1 = 1 and varNum2 = 0.1 is it possible to get the result to 2 d.p so that sums of currency look correct (in this case £1.10)

Thanks in advance

Making An Object Look 3d (example Shown)
Hi, I'm wondering how to do this..i'm rather new to flash but a fairly good programmer...

If you look at this flash movie...and click on the globe..you'll see the text rise up to 2d...(make sure to click the globe to see what i mean)
Rotating Globe

I can make mine look 2d...but don't know how in the world to get the text to "lay down" like the author has done here...I looked through the flash files and found no action script...So it must be just a regular motion tween? But what tool do you use to get it like that?

Thanks
