Convert Movieclip Scroller To Dynamic Text Scroller
I have code I borrowed that is set up to scroll a movie clip image. However, it doesn't work well if I replace the graphics with a text box as the scrolling becomes "jerky" as I think there is too much information for it to process with the complexity of the text. So I was hoping to change the scrolling content from a movie clip image with text to a dynamic textbox. But it will not function when I do that change. In this currrent setup, the movieclip instance name is "contentmain". I tried naming the instance of the dynamic textbox with that name, but no text shows up next to the scroller when I play the movie.

Here's the code:
scrolling = function () {

var scrollHeight:Number = scrollTrac._height;
var contentHeight:Number = contentMain._height;
var scrollFaceHeight:Number = scrollFace._height;
var maskHeight:Number = maskedView._height;
var initPosition:Number = scrollFace._y=scrollTrac._y;
var initContentPos:Number = contentMain._y;
var finalContentPos:Number = maskHeight-contentHeight+initContentPos;
var left:Number = scrollTrac._x;
var top:Number = scrollTrac._y;
var right:Number = scrollTrac._x;
var bottom:Number = scrollTrac._height-scrollFaceHeight+scrollTrac._y;
var dy:Number = 0;
var speed:Number = 10;
var moveVal:Number = (contentHeight-maskHeight)/(scrollHeight-scrollFaceHeight);

// Setup easing event
contentMain.desiredX = contentMain._y;
contentMain.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._y -= (this._y - this.desiredX) / 3;
};

scrollFace.onPress = function() {
var currPos:Number = this._y;
startDrag(this, false, left, top, right, bottom);
this.onMouseMove = function() {
dy = Math.abs(initPosition-this._y);
contentMain.desiredX = Math.round(dy*-1*moveVal+initContentPos);
};
};
scrollFace.onMouseUp = function() {
stopDrag();
delete this.onMouseMove;
};

btnUp.onPress = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (contentMain._x+speed<maskedView._x) {
if (scrollFace._x<=left) {
scrollFace._x = left;
} else {
scrollFace._x -= speed/moveVal;
}
contentMain._x += speed;
} else {
scrollFace._x = left;
contentMain._x = maskedView._x;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};
btnUp.onDragOut = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
btnUp.onRelease = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
btnDown.onPress = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (contentMain._x-speed>finalContentPos) {
if (scrollFace._x>=right) {
scrollFace._x = right;
} else {
scrollFace._x += speed/moveVal;
}
contentMain._x -= speed;
} else {
scrollFace._x = right;
contentMain._x = finalContentPos;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};
btnDown.onRelease = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
btnDown.onDragOut = function() {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};

if (contentHeight<maskHeight) {
scrollFace._visible = false;
btnUp.enabled = false;
btnDown.enabled = false;
} else {
scrollFace._visible = true;
btnUp.enabled = true;
btnDown.enabled = true;
}
};
scrolling();

Any ideas?

How Do I Make A Scroller Like This?
I've downloaded a mizillion scroller .swfs and for some reason, can't make one simple like this.

Here's the example:

http://www.thewreckers.com/site/index.html

the news scroller on left. It's real nice!

what keeps happening is when I replace the middle part of "slider", the part that scrolls up and down, it stretches my image to fill the entire area of the scrollbar, depending on how much text is in the field. I understand why it does this, because it's normally just a rect w/color in here, so stretching it won't look bad.

any help will be much appreciated....thanks.

How Do You Make A Smooth Scroller?
Hi guys... I've got a quick question. Is there a good tutorial site where I can make my own, smooth scroller? The way it works is when you click on the bar and drag down the content it should move smoothly unlike the regular flash built in scrollbar. Another question is how could I incorporate pictures into that?

Thank you.

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/thumbnails.htm
I am currently using Flash MX. Ive had a hard time opening the source file so I tried to go back to the previous tutorial listed below: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx20...otogallery.htm and use it as the source file to work on this tutorial.

Make An Thumbnail Scroller Loop?
I have this scroller of thumbnail images, but it stops scrolling when the images run out!

is there a way to make it so it loops around and around???

here is the code i used to make it scroll,

Code:
function thumbNailScroller() {
// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);
scroll_speed = 10;
tscroller.onEnterFrame = function() {
if ((_root._ymouse>=thumbnail_mc._y) && (_root._ymouse<=thumbnail_mc._y+thumbnail_mc._height)) {
if ((_root._xmouse>=(hit_right._x-40)) && (thumbnail_mc.hitTest(hit_right))) {
thumbnail_mc._x -= scroll_speed;
} else if ((_root._xmouse<=(hit_left._x+40)) && (thumbnail_mc.hitTest(hit_left))) {
thumbnail_mc._x += scroll_speed;
}
} else {
delete tscroller.onEnterFrame;
}
};
}
function thumbnails_fn(k) {
thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
tlistener = new Object();
tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) {
target_mc._x = hit_left._x+(target_mc._width+5)*k;
target_mc.pictureValue = k;
target_mc.onRelease = function() {
p = this.pictureValue-1;

HELP- Need To Make Xml Scroller Appear Visible On MouseOver
Hi,

I have used the xml gallery tutorial and have images scrolling at the bottom and playing at the top.

Does any1 know how to make the bottom scroller visible only when the mouse is over? I tried this code:
/////////////////////////////////////////////
scroller.container._visible = true;
scroller.container.onRollOver = function()
{
scroller.container._visible = true;
}
scroller.onRollOut = function()
{
scroller.container._visible = false;
}
/////////////////////////////////////////////

When the file loads, the scroller images still come up but when I put my mouse over, they dissappear.

I am trying to make the scroller be invisible when the file loads and only when my mouse is over it appears.

I think because on the Kirupa tutorial, the scroller already has a function which maybe causing the problem. I am not sure.

Can any1 help? please????

How To Make Scroller Stop When Menu Is Active
hi,

in my flash file i use a movieclip that scrolls images controlled by the mouse. there is a variable speed, and if it set to 0, the scroller is stopped.

so far it works fine.
but i also have a dropdown menu which overlaps the scroll area when it is unfolded. and so, if i want to navigate, the images keep quickly scrolling around, which is rather annoying.
the menu is inside a movie clip.

i think i'll have to set the speed variable to 0 when the mouse rolls over the space that the menu occupies.

can you tell me if it works that way and how i have to actionscript that?

thanks a lot

[CS3] Trying Make Flash Scroller That Reads From XML Work
I've attached the code for download.

Essentially what I am trying to create is a flash program that will read from an XML file AND automatically scroll downward. Once it hits the bottom it will repeat from the top of it seamlessly.

It does read the XML so YAY on that...

I Need To Make This Txt Scroller Move Onmouseover, Not Onclick - Help Needed
I have a text scroll box that is moved by an up and down arrow, but you have to actually click it for it to scroll. I'm wanting to set it up to where you just mouse over the arrow and it scrolls automatically. I just downloaded this text scroller, so I'm not sure what to edit in the script. This is what the buttons currently say:

up arrow:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_parent.lPressed=="1") {
_parent.gotoAndStop(_parent._currentframe-1);
}
}

down arrow:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_parent.lPressed=="true") {
_parent.gotoAndStop(_parent._currentframe+1);
}
}

any suggestions?

It's static text that is moving as well as a layer of graphics. Here's a screenshot of the scrolling movieclip if that helps at all: http://www.nlgraphics.com/screenshot.jpg

Can I modify the code that I currently have in place, or would something totally different have to be put together?

Any help is appreciated.

How Do I Make A Xml Driven Thumbnail Scroller Repeat(loop)
Hey guys -

Please see the attached files to figure this one out-

I am creating a thumbnail scroller and I have everything set to work. The last final issue I'm having is this:

The scroller displays 25 items.
8 at a time.

When you page left/page right it scrolls to the next(or previous) 8 thumbs in the list.

This is what we want to happen:
Once the final (25th) thumb is reached it starts over on the first thumb again and we are back at 1. So that it becomes an endless loop.

// What I've Tried ///////////////////////////////
I tried duplicateMovieClip() so that I could have a second one at the end and then continue to exchange x values but it won't work because I have MCs that are being attached dynamically

///////////////////////////////////////////

Notes: I have included the xml document as a txt so that I could upload it. please convert back to xml when testing.

Make A Standard Thumb Scroller / Scroll Infinitely
I've got a standard horizontal thumbnail scroller and want to have it scroll infinitely. So when it reaches the last one in the list from the xml it continues to show thumbnails starting over with the first... alternately when it starts and a user chooses to scroll in the other direction it shows the last one and progresses toward the first...

hopefully that makes sense.

I load the thumbs via xml here:

PHP Code:

function urlLoaded(event:Event):void { xml = XML(event.target.data); xmlList = xml.children(); for (var i:int=0; i < xmlList.length(); i++) { var thumb:Thumbnail = new Thumbnail(xmlList[i].url); arrayThumb.push(thumb); thumbNail.push(arrayThumb); arrayThumb[i].y = 0; arrayThumb[i].x = 10+(150*i); photoContainer.addChild(thumb); }}

then when one of my arrows to navigate left or right, i check to see if reaches the end and if it does I bounce it back to 0. which is what the onComplete event calls to and passes the max positions, in the checkPos function if the argument is true it Tweens all back to 0, but I'd rather just continue looping on through...

PHP Code:

function moveRight(e:MouseEvent):void{ var maxRight:Number = - photoContainer.width + stage.stageWidth; if(photoContainer.x < maxRight){ // do nada }else{ Tweener.addTween(photoContainer,{x:photoContainer.x-300, transition:"easeInOutBack", time:1.5, onComplete:checkPos, onCompleteParams:[maxLeft,maxRight]}); }}

any suggestions

Image Scroller That Doesn't Make You Motion Sick
Hi there, I hope someone can help me and my flash handicapp...so I'm trying to make a portfolio website and I want to have a dynamic horizontal image scroller that is stationary until you click on an image. The image that is clicked goes to the center and with another click enlarges. When the enlarged picture is clicked it goes back into the image scroller.
I was inspired by the website at: www.sorenhald.com,

I really don't like the tutorials that I've found and I need some serious help getting started. Please if anyone knows what I'm talking about, can you help direct me or give me some insight. Thank you!

Make Xml Infinite Scroller Load/unload Images In And Out As Needed
I have a xml infinite scroller that currently loads all images all at the same time. It works great but I will need to load about 20 to 30 images that will scroll by and that will cause processing problems.

I am wondering if it would be possible to make the xml infinite scroller only load the images that are in view and then unload them in and out as the scoll by? I have no idea if this is possible but I think many flashers could make use of it.

TEXT CHANGING, When I Copy And Paste Text Scroller, And Add New Text......?
here's the problem:

I have a text scroller I took from a fla. file on here.
on my site, I wanted to just change the text. in the text scroller, and
place it in diffrent sections of my site a number of times with diffrent text.

I do not have a problem, copying and pasting the scroller.
But when I change the text from one section, to the next, it will make all the text the same.

If I copy the scroller and paste it somewhere else, swap the text it will change all to that last text I entered.

I tried, typing one section's text. Then copy/pasting the scroller, and putting new text, and converting that text to a symbol (graphic). Hoping it would work but had no LUCK.

This is huge and i need help, considering I am a newbie, there has got to be away this can be accomplished so I dont have to build seperate text holders/scroller, for all 15 sections of my site.

Let me know..and thank you all so much.

Loss Of Text Formatting When Using Dynamic Text Field & Scroller
Hi all,

Using MX...

Another small problemo im having is when i format text in my dynamic text field and attch the scroller component to it, in preview mode i lose all the text format and it goes to the first text format it encounters and uses that for everything else in the dynamic text box.

Im not actually loading any text into the dynamic text box, im just using it with static text, so i can use the scroller component.(as i understand it, you can only attach the scroller component to a dynamic text box ??)

Why am i losing my text format AND is there a better way to have a scrolling text field when i just want to use static text...???

Thanks guys..hope thats not too confusing

Cheers

Dynamic Text Scroller (text Crawler?) NOT WORKING?
Hi, I am trying to make a movie that gets text from an external text file, and then scrolls it horizontally across the screen. I made a function that takes the object (movie clip with text) and moves it across the screen. it works fine except if the text is more than the width of the text field, i get this nasty trailing effect. it really sucks!

does anyone know a good way to do this? i would also like to be able to have mulitple texts, following eachother, and then looping to start over.

any info would be greatly appriciated!

Text Scroller - Adjusting Scollbar As Text Changes
I've created a simple dynamic text scroller and have a question relating to the scrollbar - the files for this can be downloaded at:

http://www.weazelweb.co.uk/dump/dyntextmx.fla
http://www.weazelweb.co.uk/dump/text1.txt
http://www.weazelweb.co.uk/dump/text2.txt

and the SWF file can be viewed online at

http://www.weazelweb.co.uk/dump/dyntextmx.html

The movie is dead simple, when you reach a certain point in the timeline, the text changes.

Unfortunately, in my second text file the content is much shorter but the scrollbar does not adjust to the size of the new text - it just remains the size of the first one. Even though the text doesnt move, the scrollbar can still be pulled up and down.

If I change the text files around so that the smaller one opens first, then I get no scrollbar at all for either.

Any suggestions as to sorting this problem out - puh-lease.... thanks.

How Do I Make A Text Scroller?
