Photo Gallery Code Problems

Profishent Way To Code A Photo Gallery?
say I wanted to have like 20 or more thumbnails..
with an image preview on them..

that loaded the bigger jpg file into an empty movie clip on the statge

would I just target 20 lil movie clips to load a thumbnail jpg?


ActionScript Code:
myMCL.loadClip("thumb1.jpg", "thumbMC1");
myMCL.loadClip("thumb2.jpg", "thumbMC2");
myMCL.loadClip("thumb3.jpg", "thumbMC3");
myMCL.loadClip("thumb4.jpg", "thumbMC4");

thumbMC1.onRelease = function() {
myMCL.loadClip(image1.jpg", "viewerMC");
}

or would there be a better, smarter way to do this?
seems like it would be alot of repetative coding


Also.. what can I use to batch rename files?
Ive been just using windows to do it till now.. anything better?

Photo Gallery (code By Sbeener)
Hi

I am currently working on a flash website (only just started really!!) for a carpentry shop. The main section of the site is a photo gallery showing sample pictures of built furniture, so that the customer can have a feel of the work quality, etc...

Now I have been to the tutorial section and I have seen a great photo gallery Fla by sbeener. The thing is, I need to customize the code but im not sure how!!!

This is what I need:

Currently, the images to be loaded are specified within the fla file, but I want to change this so that I specify them in a txt file. Because its easier to edit the txt file instead of the fla file, every time I add another image to the gallery.

How can I do this?

Any help would be appriciated. I have attached the fla

Sbeener Photo Gallery Code Error
Can someone please help me out?

I used sbeener's code posted to create a photo gallery, and everything is almost working, except one thing, when I test my movie the photos aren't appearing in the rectangle as instructed to create in the tutorial but they are appearing through the center/bottom area of the movie. Any suggestions as to why this might be happening?

Help On Creating Photo Gallery Using Sbeener Code
I've been trying to create a photo gallery using the code by sbeener and the tutorial by kirupa but I'm having problems in visualizing the photos. They don't get resized to the movieclip dimensions. Do I have do resize all photos in a image editing program? The photos I pretend to show in the photo gallery have differente sizes (for example 784x581, 510x557, etc) and I want to show them on a movie clip with 370x240, so they have to be scaled to that size, but that's what I don't know how to do. Need some help . Thnks

Trouble Customizing Sbeener Photo Gallery Code
Not sure if this problem has been sorted out already in an earlier post if so, please direct me to where it is. Tnx.

Basically my photos wont show up on the final swf, even after i've customized the this.pathToPics and this.pArray codes. The pics are in a subfolder where the swf itself is saved. Directing the this.pathToPics to this subfolder and listing the pics on the this.pArray should do the trick right? Or is there something else? Anything else i need to change in the code? Please help!

Repurposing Photo Gallery Code For Page Transistions?
Hi,
I am using Flash MX and was wondering if anyone knew how I could use portions of the code from the Kirupa Photo Gallery tutorial (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm) for page transistions?

The specific script that I was looking at from the photo gallery tutorial is this:

MovieClip.prototype.fadeOut = function() {
if (this.photo._alpha>this.fadeSpeed) {
this.photo._alpha -= this.fadeSpeed;
} else {
this.loadPhoto();
}
};

I am designing a website that has 7 pages of content each designed on 7 seperate individual frames and the the static background/navigation is layered at the bottom (7 frames long). Any ideas how to implement this code to make transitions between those frames/pages? I would need the movie clip to transition to black when the navigation button is released and then gotoandPlay the next designated frame (which could have a manual movie clip animation fade in). The tricky part for me is the fade out and then navigating to the right page.
Thanks for your help.

Using The Photo Gallery Thumbnail Scroll Code For Independent Movieclips
I'm using the xml gallery vertical scrolling thumbnails code for my portfolio site. But, I have another section in the site that is separate from the gallery section where I want a movieclip to scroll the same way the thumbnails are scrolling (speed, same hit test, etc.) but I'm not sure how to alter the code to simply make a movie clip move the same way. I tried just changing the movieclip name, but it didn't work. Am I over-thinking it?
This is the code that is being used for the gallery.


Code:
function thumbNailScroller() {
// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);
scroll_speed = 10;
tscroller.onEnterFrame = function() {
if ((_root._xmouse>=thumbnail_mc._x) && (_root._xmouse<=thumbnail_mc._x+thumbnail_mc._width)) {
if ((_root._ymouse>=(hit_right._y-40)) && (thumbnail_mc.hitTest(hit_right))) {
thumbnail_mc._y -= scroll_speed;
} else if ((_root._ymouse<=(hit_left._y+40)) && (thumbnail_mc.hitTest(hit_left))) {
thumbnail_mc._y += scroll_speed;
}
} else {
delete tscroller.onEnterFrame;
}
};

Code Needed: Generate A Pop-up Window From A Flash Photo Gallery
Hi! I know the basics for flash, but really not familiar with Action Scripting. I have a gallery that I purchased from iStock; it has thumbnails and a main image chosen from the thumbnail. It has an xml doc where I can change/add or delet images. I want to be able to click on whatever main image that has currently been selected and have a pop-up window appear with additional photos on the item selected.
I know that the action code needs to be done in the main gallery - just not sure of what that code would be. I also know that I will need an xml doc that will call out the variables; again not that familiar with xml.
Can anyone help? Please?
Thanks

[MX04] Scoping Help On A Piece Of Code-XML Driven Photo Gallery Loaded Into MC
I have a xml driven dynamic photo gallery. What I am trying to do is load this gallery into a MC on the main timeline so that I can control where the playback happens. The gallery works as a SWF but when I load it into a MC, it breaks and only a part loads up. Is this perhaps a scoping problem?

It does work if I let it load into a level but then it is in the wrong location. I'm guessing the MC adds a level to the scoping that I am not understanding. Help anyone?

the xml-driven gallery is a two frame FLA. The first frame has some variables and the start_mc that after loading, moves it to frame two.

Code on frame one of the XMLPhoto.FLA:


Code:
_global.a_th = 80;
_global.columns = 1;
_global.lines = 4;
var PhotoAlbum = {thumbs:[]};
photo_xml = new XML();
photo_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
stop();
code on frame two:


Code:
//QH_th is a holder MC with the same instance name
//QH_photo is a holder MC with the same instance name

photo_xml.onLoad = function() {
QH_th.html = true;
QH_th.htmlText = "<p align="center"></p>";
Photos_QuietHero(0);
};
_global.Photos_QuietHero = function(container) {
var photos = photo_xml.firstChild.childNodes;
var p_thumbs = photo_xml.firstChild.attributes.thumbs, p_photos = photo_xml.firstChild.attributes.QuietHero;
var i = container;
for (var l = 0; l<lines; l++) {
for (var c = 0; c<columns && i<photos.length; c++, i++) {
var thumb = QH_th.createEmptyMovieClip("thumb_"+i, i);
PhotoAlbum.thumbs.push(t);
thumb._y = l*a_th;
thumb.createEmptyMovieClip("photos", 1);
thumb.photos.loadMovie(p_thumbs+"/"+photos[i].attributes.thumb);
thumb.dimensions = photos[i].attributes;
thumb.onRelease = function() {
QH_photo._parent.alvo.unloadMovie();
QH_photo.dimensions = this.dimensions;
QH_photo.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._width += (this.dimensions.pixwidth-this._width)/3;
this._height += (this.dimensions.pixheight-this._height)/3;
QH_th._x = this._x+(this._width/2)+5;
QH_th._y = this._y-(this._height/2);
if (Math.round(this._width) == Math.round(this.dimensions.pixwidth) && Math.round(this._height) == Math.round(this.dimensions.pixheight)) {
this._width = this.dimensions.pixwidth;
this._height = this.dimensions.pixheight;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
this._parent.createEmptyMovieClip("alvo", 1);
this._parent.alvo._x = this._x-(this._width/2);
this._parent.alvo._y = this._y-(this._height/2);
this._parent.alvo.loadMovie(p_photos+"/"+this.dimensions.model_1);
}
};
};
}
}
};
photo_xml.load("photos.xml");
stop();
Can anyone help me with why this gallery won't load/work into a MC but does work if I load it into a level? Paths wrong, scoping wrong once it resides in a MC? Something else? Using Flash mx04/player7

XML Photo Gallery W/Thumbs - Code For Loading SWFs Instead Of JPGs For Thumbs?
Hi, all,

I'm using Flash CS3 and have built a slide show using the excellent XML Photo Gallery tutorial, as well as adding sound thanks to another post in this forum. It's all working like a charm. The only bad thing is: I want to place .swfs files where the dynamic text is right now, and can't figure out how to do it.

What I really want is one large image/JPG on each slide, and below that, instead of the dynamic text shown in the tutorial example, a smaller .swf file should appear. (For this project, the text itself needs to be animated, and I can't do that with the <caption>/dynamic text option; I need to insert an SWF.) I'd really like to do this using XML since that's working so nicely otherwise.

Can anyone provide me with the actionscript code to use in the context of this photo gallery? I'm not advanced enough yet to know where or how to place code that doesn't fall into this gallery/AS format.

(I'm not being lazy: I have looked all over these forums for hours, read through about 60 pages of tutorials, went through the whole XML Photo Gallery with Thumbnails hoping I could somehow alter that to meet this project's needs... no dice. I had gotten far enough in that tutorial to be able to insert an empty movie clip where I want it, but could only figure out how to fill it with JPGs from the XML, not SWFs... and in any case the images did not then work correctly while advancing the slides.)

Here is my current Actionscripit code:

************************************************** *****

function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
audio = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
audio[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("infant_images.xml");
/////////////////////////////////////

};
/////////////////////////////////////

if (loaded != filesize) {

} else {
preloader._visible = false;
if (picture._alpha<100) {
picture._alpha += 10;
}
}
};
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
sound = new Sound();
sound.loadSound(audio[p],true)
}
}
}
function prevImage() {
if (p>0) {
p--;
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
sound = new Sound();
sound.loadSound(audio[p],true);
}

createEmptyMovieClip("sound_mc",2);
sound_mc.sound_obj = new Sound();
sound_mc.sound_obj.loadSound( sound[p], true);
sound_mc.sound_obj.play();
}
}

(It's not showing the preloader and is missing the counter AS on purpose; I don't need those items for this project...)

Thank you for any help you can give!!

Photo Gallery Tutorial Turned Into Photo Carousel
i've taken the tutorial on this site on how to create an flash photo gallery that loads the content from an xml file. i'd like to alter the output of this fine tutorial and would appreciate any help in doing so.

i would like to create gallery, but instead of only showing one picture at a time, i would like to have a carousel effect where more than one picture is shown at a time, and the buttons control the turn of the carousel. i'm thinking in order to do this i'll need to have the as create a movie clip for each picture (maybe during the for loop). each mc instance would have to have a unique name, and then the buttons could play with the properties of each created mc instance.

here's the code from the tutorial on this. any help would be much appreciated....

function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("images.xml");

listen = new Object();

Photo Gallery Help - Increase Height Of Main Photo
I have downloaded and walked through the steps in creating the Photo Gallery and have it working properly for my Horizontal shots. However, I am having trouble with displaying my Vertical shots (Height-300 x Width-200). How can I extend the flash in height to display my vertical pics properly?

Also, is there any cody that I can enter between the <Caption> </Caption> that would eliminate any caption being displayed? If it is left blank, it auto inserts undefined.

Thanks!

Photo Gallery - Only Loading Every Other Photo [urgent]
I've made a photo gallery from the MX tutoial, modifying it a bit for my needs. When I was using local images they would load fine and every one of them would display. I altered the XML to load images using URLS and now only every other displays (I've checked the urls are correct) - though because of the sequence I can see every image.

There are 7 images and my prev/next buttons loop, so the sequence I get is...

1,3,5,7,2,4,6

Any ideas?

Merge Photo Slideshow With Photo Gallery
I am currently working on a website to display photos and have found kirupa's tutorial using the slideshow method very helpful. But I want the added user flexibility to stop the slideshow or skip to another image in the slide-show sequence at any time. So, if you can envision entering the site, a portfolio of images starts to cycle while the user can see what image number he/she is on and skip to or pause the slideshow. I'm not very code savvy and would love some help/ideas where to find help!

Photoshop CS2: Web Photo Gallery: Flash - Gallery 1
I'm interested to know the code that Adobe Uses with one of their Web Photo Gallery (Photoshop CS2) - it's the one called "Flash - Gallery 1".

Here's a sample of it:

http://www.newrisedesigns.com/charlie/060416/

What I'm interested in, is how to do the thumbnails...when you roll over them - they move all of the other thumbnails around - and also show the name of the external jpg file.

Anyone know or have the source code to do that? What about any kind of tutorial out there that can do this?

Help please?

Photo Spacing For XML Photo Gallery
Im new to this forum and Im also fairly new to action script. I have some questions regarding the Photo Gallery using XML and Flash. I'm only using the thumbnail portion of this tutorial.

I've attached my .fla file and my .xml file. PLEASE HELP. Im pretty sure the problem is my action script but I dont know where to go. Thanks.

Project Gallery...not Just Photo Gallery
Project gallery...not just photo gallery
Hello, I'm looking for a project gallery. The projects could be for example, websites.

I want the list of projects down the left side. When you click one an image of the project pops up to the right AND below the image would be the description of the project, which pops up at the same time.

I've see photo galleries that kind of do this, but not a project gallery. Emphasis is on both the photo and description.


Any demos available or thoughts?

Thanks.

Help: Photo Gallery
Hi guys,

I'm a big newbie to Flash, but I've tried it once or twice and I get the general concept of the program, so that's about it. Today, I'm here to seek some expert help.

Recently, I suggested to my friend that at his wedding he should give away cd-roms with studio taken pictures of him and his wife. The general idea I had in my head was just a simple picture gallery with maybe a nice background and music playing (to make it even more slick, the music should be selectable from a list, or at least have foward and back functions). The gallery should be pretty simple ie. the pictures could be scrolled through by using foward and back buttons or by selecting a thumbnail. And seeing that I'm his best buddy and all, he enlisted me to take care of this job. Lucky me .

I don't know much about Flash, and basically the only idea I have is to embed the swf file into a webpage and just let it go from there. Just thinking generally in terms of the use of file directories and file accessing commands (although I can't say I know any) it seems simple enough, but in my dire attempts to "wing it" so far I haven't able to figure out much yet.

ANY help, suggestions or feedback would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Thanks!!

XML Photo Gallery - How?
Hi Guys I'm pretty new to this so plz be gentle! Okay I would like to make a site a little similar to the following...

http://www.simonladefoged.com

Yet what I would like to do is have the 'gallery' images being displayed via xml (therefore I could just add new images at say 320x320 anytime to the image folder and update the xml file and the site would be updated?)

My problem is that I don’t know how to incorporate the xml into flash and would like to still use an alpha transition effect between the images and I don't know how this can be done?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Devs.

P.S. If anyone knows of any fla’s or components that do a similar thing could they plz let me know about them? I’ve found this one yet its not quite right ;(

Photo Gallery Bug Help
I posted this problem last month and went through all of the fixesd everyone suggested and I still havent gotten this photo gallery to work properly.

To hit the bug, start the photo gallery and in the first 4 or 5 seonds of loading click the last thumbnails. The wrong pic animation loads. This only happens for the first few seconds and only happens to the last few buttons. I cannot for the life figure out what is wrong. This site is now live and we are getting complaints about this. Any ideas would be great!

The file is too big to load her. You can goto this link and download the fla or see the gallery swf.

Photo Gallery
Hello all,
I am trying to create a photo gallery with the thumb nails of the images on the layout. When the thumb is clicked it will pull the image from the server and load it into the movie. I want the images to come in using some sort of effect i.e. fade in - fade out or any other cool effect.

Also: Is there a script to make sure the image loads at a specific size and location?


So far all i did was create 1 frame with the thumbs and 1 movie clip.
the script for the button is as follows:

on (release) {
loadMovie("http://www.albundy.net/other_pics/disguise/disguise2.jpg", square);
}


very rough sample of the idea... layout

Thanks in advance...

Can anyone help me? i have this photo gallery and you can click on the numbers and load the photos into a MC and you can click on the arrows and go to the next photo but if you click a number and then click the arrow it loads the next photo after the last one selected by the arrow, not the next photo after the one currently in the MC. I need to have these work together so if you click on number 5 and then click the arrow it loads photo number 6.

Good Day All!
I came across this button setup:

and am curious to figure out how they made the movie play forward or backward depending on the button pressed. Did they us IF and Else statements? I am fairly new and would love to learn how to do this. Any direction would be appreciated.

Thanks

Photo Gallery Help
ok. I tried posting my .fla and asking for help. I got no response. I know everyone is busy here and I should ask questions instead of having you look at my .fla. however, I don't know what the probalem is so I don't know what to ask. So here is my best try.

This is the code for the first photo. When you click the button the photo blink every 2 seconds. You probably will have no clue without loking how I set up the project. Also I now it is probably a poor way to do the code for loading a picture but I don't know how else I can make a photo gallery with my type of movie.

Code:
on (release) {
unloadMovie(_root.show1);
_root.box.gotoAndStop(2);
function waitMove() {
_root.box._x = 200
_root.box._y = 50
_root.n._x = 525
_root.n._y = 75
ClearInterval(ID);
}
_root.varX = 448;
_root.varY = 325;
maintxt.play();
function swfWait() {
loadMovie("photo1.swf", _root.p);
clearInterval(SW1);
}
SW1 = setInterval(swfWait, 2000);
this.attachMovie("my_mc", "Newmy_mc", "0");
ID = setInterval(waitMove, 2000);
}

Photo Gallery
I want to build a photo gallery (slide show) something to display pictures in a series but I dont want it sucking up tons of bandwidth to pull up the images. what is a good way of going about it.

I read somethings about XML, or would there be a ActionScript, or PHP. etc. way.

Also as a note the whole site is built in flash so want to show the images in the flash form.

Thanks for your time,
Cheers.

JT

Note: I'm using Flash MX
