Images Scroller

[mugdiman]

Hello,

great scroller so far.

There is only one thing....how would it be possible to change the acceleration of the scrolling so that the speed is dependent from the proportion to the stage and not from the proportion to container_mc.

That means, when the mouseX is around the middle of the stage (stage.stageWidth/2) the movement should stop or slow down in any case no matter where we are proportional to the container_mc.

At the moment, this is not the case. I increased the number of images to around 50 floating in line so the ratio is around 8. When I move the mouse on the movie clip in the middle of the stage now, it can happen that the image I wanted to view slides out of the stage very very fast........
Adjusting the speed in ax doesn't help here as well, it can just slow down but the problem remains.

you see any fast solution for this or would it require complete rewriting?

Thanks, Dennis

Hi there

The moveMe function in Main.as should do this:

private function moveMe(evt:Event):void
		{
			if(boo)
			{
				var distance:Number=stage.stageWidth/2-mouseX;
				/*var arrX:Number=mouseX*ratio+stage.stageWidth/2;
				var dx:Number=arrX-evt.currentTarget.x;
				var ax:Number=dx*.1;*/
				evt.currentTarget.x+=distance/10;
				check(evt.currentTarget as MovieClip);
			}
			else
			{
				evt.currentTarget.x-=speed;
				check2(evt.currentTarget as MovieClip);
			}
		}

Hi there, is it posible to load png files or swf files in the images scroller? And il like to know if i can start the image scroller so that it is moveing immediately and looping also.
Greetings, Aragon.

Hi Aragon and welcome

You can load PNG or SWF, just change the url's inside of the XML file.

I's moving immediately, and looping too

[Aragon]

thx for your reply, but it dosent work right yet. im tring to load swf files so that they look and work the same as the origonal swf i want to load. I need a tranceparent effect !

I also want to link to a webpage, not a popup!

Here are my test links:
main
battlefield2

About main sample, it is scroling if you do not go over it with the mouse and when it gets the last image it invertes the direction ( is that a loop ? )

About the links instead of popups:

- change the urls of the ' popup ' attribute inside of images.xml
- open Main.as and change openPopUp function as following:

private function openPopUp(evt:MouseEvent):void
		{
			var js:URLRequest=new URLRequest();
			js.url=objects_array[evt.currentTarget.id].pop;
			navigateToURL(js,'_self');
		}

hello there flash guru,
i finally used and uploaded the image scroller and it works succesfully on my website on the desired size that i wanted.could you explain me how i could reduce the size of the loader (1/20 etc.) and the color of it?

[Flep]

Simple, it's a textfield inside of main.fla
