it's not about the computer man, it's about the version of flash you are using.

theres tons of different flash versions, and alot of people save preloaders as Flash CS4 lets say, and you cannot open that in flash 8!

is there any way to use a function like say in C?

i have

function clicked(eventObject:MouseEvent) {
if(page !== "contact"){
		TweenLite.to(stageMask, 0.25, {alpha:1, onComplete: loadmovie});
		setChildIndex(stageMask,numChildren-1);
		page = "contact";
	}
}

ra ra ra

and basically i have it duplicating like 8 times, just page is different..

is there anyway to do a

clicked(contact);

OR

clicked(about);

instead of creating the code 8 times for 8 different pages?

I followed an XML / AS tutorial that set out the XML feed like:

<images>
<image big="images/image2.jpg" src="images/image2thumb.jpg" desc="Yeah, so.. probably going to be a website or something?"/>
<image big="images/image2.jpg" src="images/image2thumb.jpg" desc="Yeah, so.. probably going to be a website or something?"/>
</images>

but I want it to be:

<images>
	<image>
		<big>images/image3.jpg</big>
		<src>images/image3thumb.jpg</src>
		<desc>pretty sweet</desc>
	</image>
	<image>
		<big>images/image3.jpg</big>
		<src>images/image3thumb.jpg</src>
	<desc>pretty sweet</desc>
</image>
</images>

What do I need to change in the AS3 to make this happen? 'cause at the moment the images don't load..

I have this:

thisOne2.addEventListener(Event.ADDED, resizemc2);

thisOne2 is a dynamically loaded image.

in resizemc2 i did a test trace("hi"), and it traces it like 2 times..

why is it that it does 'resizemc2' like 2 times? the image only gets added once, so why should it do it two times?

/confused

so you work out the distance from a movieclip to the mouse and increase its size depending?

are the circles on the outer ring MASSIVE? lol

I need some help, big time.

I have this dynamically loaded image list. Now if the list is longer than 456px in height I want 'something' to happen.

Now when this list is 456, the variable 'totalImages' will be 10. (cause 10 images in height togeter=456). The total length of the image if totalImages>10 is

456 + (92*(totalImages-10)).

Now I want to be able to 'move' this loadedlist, which is called 'scroller'.. the scrollable area is worked out by:

(92*(totalImages-10))

because theres a 'window' that you can see through, and I want to be able to cut off the bottom of the list and scroll through the window to show whats at the bottom.. if you get me?

Now the scrollbar goes from y-100 to y-455.. I have a scrollable movieclip that moves up from 100 to 455.. but how do I work where the scrollbar is to move the 'scroller' movieclip?!

If you need more explaining, I'm willing to send .flas etc.etc. :)

when its being removed, the depth doesint mater. its just removeMovieClip(MCname)

doesn't the MC have to have a depth to be removed?

it's

removeMovieClip();

but remember it has to have a depth.. im sure it does cause your adding it to the stage via as :)

i need someone to look at my code..

i've made an xml slideshow (where you click to display the images), but it only lets you click on the last picture of the list of pictures clickable, if that makes sense?

it's basically 'thisOne.buttonMode = true; thisOne.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLIC K, clickScrollerItem);'

but only the last one is clickable?

please PM if if you want to help out, cause id like to send you all the code, and it's a bit much over the forums.. haha

basically i have 2 co-ordinates, and i need to like work out an equation that works out the rest of the graph?

it's a linear graph, so these 2 co-ordinates are all i need, but i need help being pointed into the right directions..

oh and the co-ordinates are if anyone cares are:

0,100
455,-374

(im not looking for an answer here, im looking for atleast an explantion, if not a tutorial how to work these damn things out! :D)

no offence, but why is it a bad thing that 'nobodies' can learn a language?

we all started from the bottom man, don't be so harsh.

ye man, i'm not sure what it was cause i literally figured out the answer as i posted..

but thanks for the reply man :)

var thisOne2:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
		
..
		
function clickScrollerItem(e:MouseEvent):void {
	//trace("clicked item " + e.currentTarget.itemNum + " - visit url: " + e.currentTarget.link);
	var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(e.currentTarget.link);
	try { 
		//image container
		var thisThumb2:Sprite = new Sprite();
		//add image
		var ldr2:Loader = new Loader();
		var urlReq2:URLRequest = new URLRequest(thisOne.src);
		ldr2.load(urlReq2);
		//assign event listeners for Loader
		thisThumb2.addChild(ldr2);
		thisOne2.addChild(thisThumb2);
		scroller.addChild(thisOne);
	
	}
	catch (e:Error) {
		// handle error here
		trace(e);
	}
}

..

		thisOne.buttonMode = true;
		thisOne.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickScrollerItem);

(i cut alot of code out, all xml loads alright, but why doesn't that work?)

basically, im creating a photoslide show. thisOne loads alright, and theres a horizontal list of images (so i know it all works) but how come thisOne2 doesn't load?

thanks

I have this slideshow loaded by xml, and I wanted to add a few movieclips onto of the images that have been added via. xml etc.

Is there anyway to do this?

addChild perhaps?

Cheers

ahhh i see, but i don't get how i can impliment that code into my project?

the html file is at index.php

all my files are in /newsfeed/ (thats the swf file at swf.swf, the xml feed feed.xml and the images image1.jpg etc. etc. all in /newsfeed/)

how would i impliment it so it's trying to find /newsfeed/ and not just the root?

(sorry, im kinda having to re-learn as3 which is a bit fun haha)

so i made a little flash thingy, and i'm using flash cs3, as3/flash player 9(dot 0 dot something), now when I put it up online, the flash player for my browser is flash player 10 (obviously?) but my flash doesn't seem to work.. the background image is there but none of the images are..

it's basically a xml feed that loads images and puts them into the flash file so you click on the images and they link out (so the person im making it for can change the images and links willy nilly)

when i directly go to the file (www.thewebsite.com/flash.swf for etc) it works, but implimenting it into a .php file, and it just doesn't work.. on firefox, safari, internet explorer, friend's computers/browsers..

anyone come across this problem

this is the code im using:

<div id="flash">
<!--[if !IE]> -->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="newsfeed.swf" width="434" height="160">
<!-- <![endif]-->

My computer broke, so I couldnt go on the internet - this also helped me realease there is MORE than NG. So ALL my flash work = gone forever! Its a bummer, but I sent it to someone like a day before my PC broke, maybe they deleted it.. forgotten the name of the guy. Maybe they have submitted it and finished it off.

I cant believe Im still level 10 too! Havent I de-levelled yet?

Um.. yeah, its good to go out n such, especially when GCSE's are around the corner.

Ill post like every 6 months on NG, but I will not return, im just seeing whos still online!

Ive found a new home.. the xbox. ;]
