Flash :: Tweening Image Container Mc Resizes Loaded Image.

Resize Loaded Image To The Size Of The Constantly Resized Container
Hi all!
Here's my problem:
I have a function that redraws the container clip every frame. While the function is running I need to download an image inside the container and to resize the image to the size of the container. The particular problem is that if the picture is bigger than the container, when it'll be downloaded the size of the container will be the same that of the picture.
Here's a simplified code:

Code:
var MCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var MCLL:Object = {};
MCLL.onLoadComplete = function(mc:MovieClip){
/*
When this is called, the mc's width and height are 0
*/
}
MCL.addListener(MCLL);
var container:MovieClip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 0);
container.h=5;
container.w=5;
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
container.clear();
container.beginFill(0, 100);
container.moveTo(0, 0);
container.lineTo(container.w, 0);
container.lineTo(container.w, container.h);
container.lineTo(0, container.h);
container.lineTo(0, 0);
container.endFill();
container.w+=5;
container.h+=5;
}
MCL.loadClip(container, "image.jpg");
Thank you for any help.

Change Externally Loaded Image's Size On Container Clip
greetigs...

i want to be able to load an external image file using:

loadMovie("myimage.jpg", container_mc)

i guess this is right, given that container_mc is the instance name of my container-placeholder clip.

i have read that upon loading another SWF/image on a container clip, ALL of it's inside content is lost. That's why we want it empty in the first place....

correct me if i am wrong please..

now, i want to reference the (dynamically loaded-external) image that is loaded inside the container clip and preferably change it's _width, _height properties (if they can be applied to the dynamically loaded image)...

anyone has any suggestions..???

thank u in advance...!

Tweening Image Once Loaded?
I have lots of images all loaded into my movie into their own dynamical containers. I made a little function that loads the images with parameters (name, position and parent container.)

Anyhow, that all works great, I'd just like a bit more sophistication for how they load in... but I'm not sure how to pass the loader reference to the an 'on complete' function.

Code:
var pictLdr:Loader = new Loader();
...stuff that places the picture correctly........
var faderIner:Tween = new Tween(pictLdr, "alpha", Strong.easeIn, 0, 1, 0.5, true);
That works. (I was surprised too). But the tween starts starts straight away, which seems bad form for those on slower connections.

Code:
pictLdr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, CompleteLoad);

function CompleteLoad(event:Event):void {
trace("COMPLETECOMPLETECOMPLETE");
trace (event.currentTarget);
var faderIner:Tween = new Tween(event.currentTarget, "alpha", Strong.easeIn, 0, 1, 0.5, true);
}
That doesn't work. I don't know how to send the pictLdr reference to the CompleteLoad function. I've tried adding extra parameters and nesting the function (that actually worked, but I must have had too many pictures loading, because sometimes it would get confused.) How do I reference the loader, or, better, the content it load's parent container?

Loaded External Image Question: Use Default Image If Loaded Image Not Found?
Hello,

I use the following code to load an external logo into a Flash Movie.

Quote:

var myRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest(logoPath);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(myRequest);
holder_mc.addChild(loader);

What if the logo file is not find? I wish that if the logo is not found, another default logo will be used, i.e.

if (logoPath is here) {
var myRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest(logoPath);
} else (logoPath is not here) {
var myRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("defaultlogo.png");
}

How can I do that?

Thanks and best regards

Image Viewer That Scales/resizes
Its a image viewer that scales to the dimensions of a loaded file. I've encountered a the following bugs:

1. if you click on forward/back btn to quickly, the file freezes.

2. Trying to have Border_MC resize, before the loadbar starts. (Created a function called getImageSize() and call it at load time- but right now it resizes after loadbar is complete)

I would appreciate any advice on the problems I'm running into on this file (attached).

Image Resizes Perfectly With Larger Monitor?

Background Image Resizes To Browser Window
Basically I want the background to resize but not my content on the page.

As you resize your browser window the background image resize proportionally. The content on the page does not resize however, it stays fixed. Also when you reach a certian size the background stops adjusting and the browser give you scroll bars.

I've seen this done at

http://www.lessrain.com/

Now I would like to know how it is done. I'm pretty new to flash so the more help the better!

Mx2004 Cuts Loaded Image Borders - Image Format Problem?
hi mates

i know i didnt post here quite a long time (wasnt programming quite a long time too), and since i know this forum to be very helpful, i am back with one irritating problem.

i have some jpgs, all contents seem to be ok, and wanna load and rescale them (rescaling would work, thats not the problem). it seems my pictures have some format error, but i cant find it

they dont seem to get displayed completely. or better, their contents dont. that means, the content is displayed in a certain area, but not outside of it, although the image is fully loaded (at least getBytesTotal tells me so). i made a small file to test the picture loading, and it shows the same error as my real clip does.

- no, theres no mask applied
- no, the jpgs are no progressive types
- yes, i tried using baseline optimization, standard baseline, and different compressions.
- yes, when displaying the jpgs with any other tool than
- when inserting one of the pics to the stage in developing and then exporting it being inside the swf, it is displayed correctly
- btw, the pics are quite big (about 3000*2000px/300-700kB) for being able to zoom.

another issue i am noticing is that some areas inside the displayed area of the jpg are not displayed instantly when the jpg is displayed, and fadein (alpha) effects of other clips in front of these areas cause much more cpu load than they should.

anyone ever seen this problem? or anyone having an idea how to solve this one?

thx for reading, greets

i have a series of duplicated MCs, each with an image, i want them to load 1 image at a time, and when that is 100% loaded tell the next movieclip to load its images and so on.

[F8] Xmca 0.3 Image Container Component Please Help
Hello flashters, is anyone familiar with the freeware xmca 0.3 components? It has a cool image container component. It looks great now I've adapted it and tweaked it for my page and it works when I preview the swf in flash, but when I try to upload it to my server instead of loading my pictures, it just loads a black image. Has anyone managed to get this working? If so, what do I need to upload/ change in the script or my site for it to work live?

FullScreen On Container Holding Image
Hi All,

Working on an important piece at present; I need to make the image wihtin a holder_mc go fullScreen, not the whole interface.

Heres my code thus far:

masker.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fullScreen);

function fullScreen(MouseEvent):void
{
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
}
masker.buttonMode = true;

Once I figure this out, I was thinking that I could then use a toggle on the masker to toggle FULL_SCREEN and NORMAL states.

Any help will be more than appreciated. ;)

XML Image Discription Doesn't Show Up When Loading SWF Into Container
Hello,

I'm building a portfolio for a company based on the Kirupa slideshow.
When I run de SWF everything works without a problem but when I load the SWF into my flash site the images DO show up but without the image description and image counter.

The files are to be loaded into a container which is inside a movieclip named: "portfolio.container"

The AS of my photogallery looks like this:

Code:
delay = 4000;
//-----------------------
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("xml/odysseeAdv.xml");

p = 0;
desc_txt.textColor = 0xF80000;
pos_txt.textColor = 0xFFFFFF;

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = picture.getBytesTotal();
loaded = picture.getBytesLoaded();
preloader._visible = true;
if (loaded != filesize) {
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*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];
picture_num();
slideshow();
}
}
}
function prevImage() {
if (p>0) {
p--;
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
}
}
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[0];
picture_num();
slideshow();
}
}
function picture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
}
function slideshow() {
myInterval = setInterval(pause_slideshow, delay);
function pause_slideshow() {
clearInterval(myInterval);
if (p == (total-1)) {
p = 0;
firstImage();
} else {
nextImage();
}
}
}
My xml file looks like this:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<images>
<pic>
<image>portfolio/odysseeAdvA.jpg</image>
<caption>Kresge</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>portfolio/odysseeAdvB.jpg</image>
<caption>Media Lab</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>portfolio/odysseeAdvD.jpg</image>
<caption>Stata Center</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>portfolio/odysseeAdvE.jpg</image>
<caption>Stata Lobby</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>portfolio/odysseeAdvC.jpg</image>
<caption>Construction</caption>
</pic>
</images>
Where and how do I change to code so the description and counter load correctly when loading the portfolio in the container?

thanx for helping me out.

Tweening A Dynamic JPG Image
Hi, not sure if this is possible but thought I'd ask anyway...

I have a load of thumbnail images I'd like to import into Flash (I'm using MX, but can use MX 2004 if needed) at runtime. I have a container mc that I'm doing an 'attachMovie' to (the movie is linked) x times, depending on how many JPG images there are to import. This was all quite easy, the problem occured when I wanted a rollover for each instantiated container movie. I'd like to be able to rollover the thumbnail and it slightlty enlarges to make it clear to the user that it is highlighted, and then shrink back to it's normal size once rolled off. I have a white square background (that the image sits on) that does tween correctly, but the image stays its same shape. Any ideas please?

Thanks for any help,
Richard.

Image Flickering When Tweening
Hello and thanks for your time,

Does anybody know how to get a linear movement
tweening on a JPG without the image flickering?

The one I made kinda' flickers and distortions the
images as they scroll, and I'd like them to be more
fluent and smooth. Check them out if you can
in the top right banner:

NOTE: the second image is the worst
http://www.e-vendorslist.com/host.html

I'm using a 25 FPS rate, and if I raise it,and add more frames
to keep it slow, it's a little bit better, but the images keep
distorting, like if there where hot water between the image
and your eye sight.

Please help !, thanks!

Image Distortion While Tweening
Hi, Its is a quite irritating problem i face when tweening images. Just when the tweening gets over for about a frame or so the image looks distorted before returning to normal. There is no sizing issues in the tween(fla). I even tried placing images at 0 axis both in graphic clips as well as the graphic clips in the actual animation(tweening). Can anybody help

Tweening Image Border
Hello,

I am trying to make one of those Resizing borders for an image gallery ...

Is there an Actionscript 2.0 function that whilst Loading in an external jpeg, Flash can be told the dimensions of the picture it is currently loading > before it has loaded it fully. .. ?

Thus, preparing the size of the border, whilst the image is loading.

Or, does it have to initiate that once the jpeg has loaded 100% ...

A lot of words for one question ...

Thanks if there is some help out there

Image Tweening (shape)
I've imported a JPG into my library. Put the image on my stage. transformed it down to 25%. placed it in the upper left corner. Put a key frame on frame 15. Moved the image to the center of the stage, transformed it to 75%.

created a motion tween and changed it from motion to shape. Broke both images apart so they are down to a shape.

When I play it. the image does move from upper left to center and the size changes. The problem is that as the smaller one is resized and moved, it TILES itself inside the available space of the shape. Once it reaches it's final position, it becomes the full image, minus the tiling.

Any suggestions or help is much appreciated.

Antialiasing Image Tweening
I have a png exported from photoshop and imported in flash. I broke appart this image in flash and made it a graphic with 99% alpha. Then i made a motion tween of this graphic i made...you can see it here:

www.dragos1230.as.ro/picture.fla

My problem is that an Anti aliasing effect is coming up in my tween...you can see it here (in the end of the animation it can be seen easily):
www.dragos1230.as.ro/picture.jpg

How can i fix this? ...it's really bothering me...what am i doing wrong?

Image Tweening And Sliders Project
Apols for being a bit dense but trying to do the following:
Want a create a flash simulation by using bitmapped grayscale image with ~6 objects that can have their intensity adjusted individually or in combination by using 4 sliders.

The sliders mimic changes in conditions from the +/- extremes and the norm. The - should have the intensities of all objects at zero. The norm should only reveal one object and when some of the sliders are at max all six objects should have maximum intensities.

I figure this would use tweening with ~6 or more images. Along with something like Colour_Slider found her on this site at http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Inter...v-60/index.php

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Enlarge An Image As A Tweening Effect
I want to design a tween effect which takes an image and enlarges it during the tweening process. I tried setting up the tween as both a motion and a shape tween, but I do not get the desired effect. Am I doing something wrong with the formatting of the image files, or do I need to do the tweening differently?

Looping Tweening Image(symbol)
I have a text (my company name) and I want it to start from the left and move to the right. I have set it up so it moves from left to right with only one problem. It keeps looping. I tried to change the tweening options so it only plays a single time but the option resets back to loop. The only way I could get around this was to change the text from a graphic to a movie clip in the instance behaviour which worked, it stopped looping, but when I preview in IE 6.0 it still loops constantly.

what gives?

[MX04] Shape Tweening An Image
Can anyone help/point in the right direction with this?

As a newbie, I've worked out how to do a shape tween, (fairly simple I know)

What I want to do now is a little more *****ious, (This is my first post, why can't I put in the word a-m-b-i-t-i-o-u-s, I did type it, not the sweary asterisk) I want a shape tween on an image(a .small .JPG).
I want it to start at 100 x 200 pixels, then I want it to grow to 200 x 400 pixels.

I have managed this after a fashion, I used 2 images, one twice the size of the other, not great! I cannot seem to control the order that the animation runs, I want the image to start at default size, then 'morph' to double size, then shrink back to default size.

Does n.e wun have any ideas, know where to point me for more reading?

Any suggestions (nearly any!) gratefully accepted.

Help With Shape Tweening Image Frames
Hello All,

I am looking to create a slideshow with different shaped images and I wanted to create a boarder around the image which will expand and contract around any image even if it is out of sequence. I can't find an example online at the minute eventhough I have seen the effect several times but this link has a similar effect when looking at the photos...

http://www.vikasshah.co.uk/

The bottom of the page moves up and down to accomodate the shape of the images. The difference is I want the whole image to be surrounded and the boarder to change vertically and horizontally.

I hope this is clear. Are there any tutorials I should look at? Is there a specific name for this effect which I could do a google search for a tutorial because I can't seem to find anything.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Dynamic Image Tweening And Player Performance
hi everyone..

just wanted peoples thoughts on whether or not dynamically
tweened animation over say 4-5 seconds would speed up the
player rather than slowing it down with traditional image
tweening.

the problem is that i have animation going off under a navigation system.. i am using a movieclip that is fairly long that contains the images (bitmaps) that are being alpha tweened together.. whilst the animation is working it slows down the workings of the navigation system.

i was just wondering that if i used actionscript to tween the images if the performance of the player would be better.

any help you could throw my way would be greatly appreciated....

thanks

Im looking at taking a sequence of pictures of someones head talking and using the tweening , kinda making it look like a morph...as if the person is talking.

the sample i like and im trying to emulate is at http://nikefootball.com/
under the site section "Player Profiles"

What im wondering is what is the right mixture of keyframes and opacity to timing (fps ?) to how many key frames between the pics.....

how i see it unfolding is
showing the pic and fading it out while on the next layer another pic starts at 0% opacity then gradually going to 100% and then back down to 0%.. when it goes down from 100% another pic is going from 0 - 50% - 100%

here is a sample i;ve got up for U.

and of course audio would be playing in the backgroung, with some quicktime player controls to pause and play and stop ...

thanks for your help..
