Srolling Background

Srolling Box
ok this is the situation. I am making a Flash site to host software and games. what i need is a scrolling box that contains a picture of the the program in the file, the description(possibly also scrolling) next to that and then a download button underneth the both of them. I would like it so I can keep adding more pictures, descriptions, and download buttons under that. So i guess I want the whole thing to scroll, so when you scroll down you will see the picture, description, and download button of the next program.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Srolling Map
I'm trying to create a scrolling map, the idea is to make the map move in relation to the mouse position. So when the cursor is placed on the right, de map moves to the left, revealing the right side. How closer to the edge how faster, but within a square around the centre there is no respons. So you'll have a border when the mouse get's there the map scrolls. also with a certain angle , like when you are in the upper right corner, the map moves diagonally down and to the left. I'm not a really good scripter, so if someone could help.

Srolling Images (with XML And AS)
Question
How do I stop the scrolling when the last image is reached?

Code I'm Using
Action Script on the intial frame

Code:
myPhoto = new XML();
myPhoto.ignoreWhite = true;
myPhoto.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;
numimages = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;
spacing = 70;
for (i=0; i<numimages; i++) {
picHolder = this.firstChild.childNodes[i];
thumbHolder = thumbnails.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail"+i, i);
thumbHolder._x = i*spacing;
thumbLoader = thumbholder.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail_image", 0);
thumbLoader.loadMovie(picHolder.attributes.thmb);
thumbHolder.title = picHolder.attributes.title;
thumbHolder.main = picHolder.attributes.main;
thumbHolder.onRelease = function() {
getURL(thumbHolder.main);
loader.loadMovie(this.main);
title_txt.text = this.title;
};
}
};
myPhoto.load("posters.xml");
//Left Button
left_btn.onRollOver = function(){
tellTarget ("left") {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}
};
left_btn.onRollOut = function() {
tellTarget ("left") {
gotoAndStop (1);
}
};
//Right Button
right_btn.onRollOver = function() {
tellTarget ("right") {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}
};
right_btn.onRollOut = function() {
tellTarget ("right") {
gotoAndStop (1);
}
};
Action Script on frame 2 of "left" mc

Code:
movespeed = 5;
if (_root.thumbnails._x>=1000) {
gotoAndStop (1);
} else {
_root.thumbnails._x += moveSpeed;
}
Note
The code only works as ActionScript1 and developed as Flash6. I don't know why. I found this code a long time ago and don't remember who developed it otherwise I would ask and credit that individual(s).

Srolling Banners
Hi guys! I was just wondering if someone could help me with this. It's driving me crazy but I bet it's something trivial. I am trying to create banners which would slide by themselves but also need to be controlled by 2 buttons (previous, next type of thing) to force it into position. Basically something like this example: http://flashsources.net/flash_compon...580-h-240.html I know how to create the sliding if I have separate button for each banner but if I need to scroll just via one or two I am lost in the ActionSript (what to put on the buttons). I tried everything like on release gotoAndPlay, NextFrame etc. stuff but it just does not do what I wanted it to do. Is it masking or maths or what? Can someone please help a beginner? Thank you :-)

Transparent Background/ XML Code To Change The Background Colour
Hi,

In a bit of a pickle here; I need a way to insert a swf file into any color background website, so it automatically matches up.

Now, can one make the swf files background transparent? And match the background of any given websites background?

Or, can one use some sort of XML file and simply change this xml file to match the background color of the website?

Now, what if the website uses a particulare pic background? How would one match this?

As usual folks, I am stuck between a rock and a hard place, so any help deeply apprecaiteed!

Kind Regards,

Boxing Boom

Printing A MC With White Background, Not Stage Background?
I’m trying to print a movieclip with a white background while keeping the stage background black. The movieclip, printResults_mc has a white rectangle in the bottom layer, 850 pixels x 1100 pixels. The following function scales printResults_mc to the printer’s printable area but because it’s impossible to predict the aspect ratio of the printable area some black background always leaks out. I tried making the white background 20 pixels larger than I need (870 x 1120) and then setting a crop rectangle in addPage of (10,10,850,1100), no luck, the black stage background just fills in the area outside the crop. A simple solution would be to temporarily set the stage background color property to white, print, then set it back to black, but I can’t find any such property. Anyone have some ideas?







Attach Code

function printResults(e:MouseEvent):void {
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var result:Boolean = myPrintJob.start();
var pageMargin:Number = 0;
if (result) {
prepPage();
var cropRect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(pageMargin,pageMargin,printResults_mc.width-pageMargin,printResults_mc.height-pageMargin);
printResults_mc.width = myPrintJob.pageWidth;
printResults_mc.scaleY = printResults_mc.scaleX
myPrintJob.addPage(printResults_mc,cropRect);
myPrintJob.send();
} else {
//User does not have printer or user canceled print action
};
}

alright, i guess im pretty new to flash but i was wondering, when you make a background image for a flash page, (in photoshop for me) what format do you save it as to get the best picture? ive tried .png and it comes out blurry and has a lot of miscolored pixels, .jpg comes out the same way, .gif was very bad, it was even distorted. i figured bitmap would be too big of a file size so i didnt try, but what does every use to get good quality pictures?
