Flash :: Scrolling Panel And Xml

Scrolling Panel
My scrolling thumbnail panel work great but I want to ad some extra functionality. I have two arrows above the panel. One for left and one for right.
Once the panel gets all the way to the left I want the left arrows alpha value to be set at 0 and once it begins to scroll right it needs to be visible again.

here is my attempt. Only the left arrows alpha is at 0 since beginning xPos is 0.

Attach Code

mouseX = _xmouse;
mouseY = _ymouse;
menuX = menu._x;
// -----------
function gotoURL(movieNum) {
getURL("javascript:flashURL("+movieNum+");");
}
// ------------
if (mouseX>314) {
diff = (mouseX-314)/40;
}
if (mouseX<313) {
diff = (313-mouseX)/40;
}
if (mouseX<=313 && mouseX>=10 && mouseY>=100 && mouseY<=575 && menuX<=0) {
setProperty("menu", _x, menuX+diff);
}
if (mouseX>=314 && mouseX<=617 && mouseY>=100 && mouseY<=575 && menuX>=-627) {
setProperty("menu", _x, menuX-diff);
}
if (menu._x>=0) {
menu._x = 0;
} else if (menu._x<=-627) {
menu._x = -627;
}
// ---------
gotoAndPlay(1);
// ----------
// Hide Arrows
menu.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (menuX<=0) {
lArrow._alpha = 0;
} else if (menuX>=625) {

I'm trying to convert Lee Brimelow's code for the scrolling panel to ActionScript 3.0, and I'm getting an error message. Quoted:

Scrolling Panel
Hi All.

I'm new to this forum and have been reading a lot of posts regarding the scrolling panel. However, i cant seem to find the answer I'm looking for. I am doing a complete flash site made up of various resources from the internet. (I got the main template from http://www.flashmo.com). On the products page, I have inserted the scrolling panel as shown in the tutorial by Lee. My main aim is that on the scrolling panel, if i click on a product, i would like it to go to a specific frame so that it shows the product information as stored on that frame. I have tried over and over, but i just cant seem to get it to work. I would be glad if someone would be able to assist me with this. (I have attached the .fla file and it was done using Adobe Flash CS3)

Another problem that i have with the panel is that the scroll is not smooth. Any ideas how i may be able to solve this?

Any assistance is highly appreciated.

/:currentPos = this._y;
if (/:downScoll == "1" && /:currentPos>/:maxPos) {
this._y += 1;
} else if (/:upScoll == "1" && /:currentPos</:minPos) {
this._y -= 1;
}
}

and this to the down scroll button..

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
I desperately trying to recreate the same kind of Scrolling Thumbnail Panel as described in this tutorial:

http://www.creativecow.net/articles/...ail_panel.html

I went trough this tutorial for several times. Once I even replicated the exactly same settings (the size, the number of thumbnails/buttons and etc). It is not working for me at all.
Please tell me that this tutorial was written for previous version of ActionScript or for previous version of Flash. And the scrolling Thumbnail panel from thiss tutorial simply won't work with latest Flash.
I would appreciate for ANY links to where I could locate another source for Scrolling Thumbnail Panel.
Thanns in advance!

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel...
I'm designing a flash app, which will enable the user to place items of clothing on a model, the items of clothing are movie clips, I have contained these movie clips in a scrolling thumbnail panel, I have used the exact same scrolling panel as in the tutorial on this site gotandlearn. I would just like to know what scripting would I use to get my clothing items (movie clips) within the scrolling panel when clicked on to be placed on my model, and how would I reset that action once done? so the items of clothing can be taken off. Here is the scripting I have used for the scrolling thumbnail panel.

panel.onRollOver = panelOver;

I have followed the instructions almost instantly but it won't work for me, can anyone help?

this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;
delete this.onRollOver;
}

var b = stroke.getBounds(_root);

function scrollPanel(){
if (_xmouse<b.xMin || _xmouse>b.xMax || _ymouse<b.yMin || _ymouse>b.yMax){

delete this.onEnterFrame;

Help With Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
Hi,

I am building a simple flash scrolling thumbnail panel. Which I have done with no problems thanks to gotoandlearn. My problem is that when I click on a button id like it to go to a certain frame in the time line. IÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢ve been working on this for two days lol and thought I should ask someone who has more experience in Flash.

Thank you so much (in advance)

Ok so this is my code,

panel.onRollOver = panelOver;

function panelOver( ) {
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;
delete this.onRollOver;
}

var b = stroke.getBounds (_root);

function scrollPanel () {
if(_xmouse<b.xMin || _xmouse>b.xMax || _ÃƒÂ¯Ã‚Â½Ã¢â€žÂ¢mouse<b.yMin || _ymouse>b.yMax) {
this.onRollOver = panelOver;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
if(panel._x >=25.9) {
panel._x = 25.9;
}

if(panel._x <=-4143.4) {
panel._x = -4143.4;
}
var xdist = _xmouse - 250;

panel._x += -xdist /3
;
}
stop();

my button has an instance name of 1_btn. IÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢m just not sure how to add in the actionscript to tell that button to go to a certain frame on the timeline. Also, IÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢m not sure where to put in the codeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦

Sorry IÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢m very new to flash.

Thank You!!!

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
I'm sure this has been discussed before, but how would you get the scrolling thumbnail panel to retrieve images from an XML file?

XML Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
Hello Everyone,

This is my very first gotoAndLearn() Forum post!

Just wondering if anyone had attempted to use Lee's existing Scrolling Thumbnail Panel Tutorial and load the images dynamically via XML??

I was playing around with it but couldn't seem to get it working properly.

Any help with this would be great!

About The Scrolling Panel Tutorial
About this tutorial, can someone help me how to add easing when the panel reaches its end and eases too when you rollOut the stage. Maybe combining with the Tween Class tutorial would be great. Thanks

Code:

panel.onRollOver = PanelOver;

function PanelOver() {
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;
delete this.onRollOver;
}

var b = stroke.getBounds(_root);

function scrollPanel() {
if(_xmouse<b.xMin || _xmouse>b.xMax || _ymouse<b.yMin || _ymouse>b.yMax){
   this.onRollOver = PanelOver;
   delete this.onEnterFrame;
}

if (panel._x >= 215) {
   panel._x = 215;
}

if (panel._x <= 20) {
   panel._x = 20;
}

var xdist = _xmouse - 300;
panel._x += -xdist / 7;
}

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
sorry to trouble you guys but im having a problem with a code im using for autoscroll. I've seen Lees tutorial on this but somehow something is wrong with mine. Im fairly new to flash and i'd really appreciate any help i get.

The Problem is I cant delete an on RollOver event for a movieclip to access my buttons below it. It scrolls fine but the buttons dont seem to work. attached below is the code.

panel_mc.onRollOver = panelOver;
panel_mc.onRollOut = panelStop;

function panelOver () {
delete panel_mc.onRollOver;
panel_mc.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;}

//start scroll\
function scrollPanel () {
panel_mc._y += -(_ymouse-200)/7;
if (panel_mc._y<=-590) {//bottom limti\
panel_mc._y = -590;
}
if (panel_mc._y>=11) {//top limit\
panel_mc._y = 11;
}
}

//stop scroll\
function panelStop () {
delete panel_mc.onEnterFrame;
panel_mc.onRollOver = panelOver;
}

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel And XML?
Hi guys,

Does anybody know how i integrate the Scrolling Thumbnail Panel from the tutorials menu with XML?

Scrolling Panel Question
Ok, here comes stupid question, but it seems I'm just unable to work this out by myself:
I followed Lee's tutorial on Scrolling thumbnail panel. It works fine, but jeez, how to make the thumbnails/buttons work?
I need it to load some movieclip but it just doesn't react to anything.
Does anybody have some general tip for this?
Thanks a lot!

Code:

panel.onRollOver = panelOver;

function panelOver() {
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;
delete this.onRollOver;
}

var b = stroke.getBounds(_root);

function scrollPanel() {
if(_xmouse<b.xMin || _xmouse>b.xMax || _ymouse<b.yMin || _ymouse>b.yMax) {
   this.onRollOver = panelOver;
   delete this.onEnterFrame;
}

if(panel._x >= 128) {
   panel._x = 128;
}

if(panel._x <= -554) {
   panel._x = -554;
}

var xdist = _xmouse - 300;

panel._x += -xdist / 7;
}

and let's say the buttons within this panel are called b01, b02, b03 etc.

Help...Scrolling Panel Tutorial
Hey

I need some help with the scrolling panel tutorial from this site, or that used to be available on this site. I had everything working fine with the scrolling panel, but when i tried to load the panel into a _level of a different movie it began acting very strangely.

I'm thinking the problem i am having has to do with the relative position of the scrolling panel movie in respect to the main movie, as far as _xmouse and _ymouse, but not sure.

If you need more information please let me know, btw this is pretty urgent, need to get this working soon.

Thanks in advance

Pop Up Windows From Scrolling Panel
I am still pretty new to all this stuff, so apologies if this question is obvious.

I have just completed Lee's tutorial on scrolling panels, and it works brilliantly. Now what I want to do is to be able to click on the images and go to larger images in a pop-up window.

I've seen this all over the place, so I'm sure it can be done....

... I just have no idea how :?

Scrolling Panel (loop)
Hello,

I am trying to use the Scrolling Panel tutorial to create an effect like... http://eu.lee.com/ when you open the page right-click or cntrl-click on the funky lady and select "Summer Collection". You will see a looping set of images. What we like about this is the fact that the bg moves at a different pace than the midground and the mid at a different pace than the foreground.

Issues I have been having. I can get it to loop I can get it to move at different rates. What I am not able to do is get it to loop so that the different areas have returned to their original positions. What i mean by that is if you look closely the fore/mid/bg always begin at the same spot without a strange jump. Also, they don't ever move too far apart. they don't just keep going they are constricted to a specific distance.

If you need clarification on anything I wrote let me know.

[F8] Continuously Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
Hey all,

I am pretty new to actionscript and just finished up a scrolling thumbnail panel using a tutorial. I'm very happy with it except that I would like the images to scroll continuously when the mouse is not over the panel. I don't know enough actionscript to accomplish this by myself. Could someone point me in the right direction? I have attached my flash file.

Thanks

Controlling A Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
hi

i have a scrolling thumbnail panel that is controlled by mouseovers. i would like a button outside of the panel to be able to scroll it to a certain point when the button is released and also reduce the amount of the panel that can be scrolled, at least temporarily. this would allow only a few specific thumbnails to be accessed after the button is released. i'm not sure how to go about this, any help would be greatly appreciated.

code for the scrolling panel as it is now:

Code:
/////////scroll panel

panel.onRollOver = panelOver;

function panelOver() {
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;
delete this.onRollOver;
}

var b = stroke.getBounds(_root);

function scrollPanel() {
if(_xmouse<b.xMin || _xmouse>b.xMax || _ymouse<b.yMin || _ymouse>b.yMax) {
this.onRollOver = panelOver;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}

if(panel._x >= 407) {
panel._x = 407;
}

if(panel._x <= -166.5) {
panel._x = -166.5;
}

var xdist = _xmouse - 575;

panel._x += Math.round(-xdist / 7);
}

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel Problem
Hi,

I made a vertical scrolling thumbnail panel but i have a problem i can't identify. From the index.swf i load gallery.swf inside a holder movie clip (which is in index.swf) and in gallery.swf is scrolling thumnail panel. Problem is that scrolling panel works just fine if you publish gallery.swf separately from index.swf, everything works smoothly like it should but if you publish index.swf then scrolling panel loaded inside it scroll's slowly with halts and not the way it should. I attached source files and i would really appreciate if someone can take a look at this and help me find the problem?

thank you

Dynamic Images Into A Scrolling Panel
Hello

I am trying to create a site for a photogrpaher friend of mine, which features a list of thumbnails of his images which you can scroll along, and when you click on one it loads a bigger image. Kinda like this: (but without the automatic scrolling - this will be controlled by buttons as opposed to mouse position)

http://www.owerko.com/detected.html

I would like to be able to do this with dynamic images so that he can add more images as he takes them. I have read up on loading dynamic images from an xml file etc, but this project is a bit beyond anything I have done before, so dont really know where to start with things like positioning the dynamic image in the scroll etc.

If anyone can offer any help or pointers on this subject it would be much appreciated!

Cheers
Matt

Scrolling Thumbnail Panel Problems
I'm creating a personal portfolio website in flash. the address is

http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~motiv8/AlexBimpson/AlexBimpson%20New/

On the "photo" page, by clicking on view portfolio a scrolling humbnail gallery appears, however as you can see it moves extremely jerkily.

This seems to be because the "photo" page is a seperate flash movie loaded into the main navigation page, a parent swf file, hence you see the loading animations when you switch pages on the website.

If you access the photo swf file alone the scrollbar seems to work fine. its address is

http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~motiv8/AlexBimpson/AlexBimpson%20New/flash/photo/photo.swf

the coding for the panel is taken from a video tutorial, and seems to work fine. i have displayed this below

panel.onRollOver = panelOver;

function panelOver() {
this.onEnterFrame = scrollPanel;
delete this.onRollOver;
}

var b = stroke.getBounds(_root);

function scrollPanel() {
if (_xmouse<b.xMin || _xmouse>b.xMax || _ymouse<b.yMin || _ymouse>b.yMax) {
this.onRollOver = panelOver;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}

if(panel._x >= 214) {
panel._x = 214;
}

if(panel._x <= -1272) {
panel._x = -1272;
}

var xdist = _xmouse - 384;

panel._x += -xdist / 8;
}

where 'panel' is the mask object used to create the bounding area for the thumbnail panel and 'stroke' is a surrounding outline, hidden as white colour.

Is anyone able to tell me why loading one movie into another is having this effect, and how I go about overcoming this problem?

I've noticed that the panel seems 2 work with the mouse below the thumbnail panel in the parent site, so it all seems a little buggy - im guessing there's something that needs changing in the referencing for the stroke and panel, but as of yet I havent found a solution.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks very much

alex

Problem With Scrolling Thumbnail Panel
Hi

I'm using the scrolling thumbnail panel that Lee did in ones of his tuts a while back. Now the swf that contains this panel is being called into a main swf. All is working OK apart from this:-

Whenever I have the stroke around the panel (the stroke is a separate movie clip that tells the panel to stop when the user rolls out of it) present the panel stutters and stops working, if I make this stroke movie clip a guide layer then it works fine but the only problem is that the panel doesn't stop scrolling when you roll off the panel strip.

Is there a way of preventing this, or is there a way of stopping the panel from scrolling without using the stroke. I would also like to know why this is happening. It only happens when the swf is called into the main swf, if I run the swf with the panel and stroke on its own its fne.

Thanks
