FLYING THUMB XML GALLERY

This is an XML based gallery, which dynamically sizes and sorts your pics over the backdrop of some whizbang animations.

With the included SWF this file can be used by anyone (Flash not needed). Simply drop the swf on to your existing HTML page, put the name of your pics in the XML file and the gallery will do the rest. With that said, the file is also set up to give Flash users maximum tweakability. All graphical items can easily be edited using the clearly labelled library items. The gallery’s parameters can also be modified using clearly labelled variables right at the top of the actionscript.

Is it possible to display the thumbs vertically ?

Posted about 1 year ago
Hi, I just purchased this xml gallery and I’m having one problem. Once the thumbnail is clicked, the full size image keeps appearing at the same height. I’ve changed it’s “y” position but I’d like to change it’s “x” position. I’m a code dummy but I thought I’d try this below the “y” location in the code but it didn’t move the full size image anywhere. Can you help me, please? Thank you.

ly = 250; //_y position of zoomed clip.
lx = 250; //_x position of zoomed clip.

Hey bronwens. Here is what you need to do to change the x position.

If you go to line 110 you’ll see this;
t1 = new Tween (clip, "_x", Regular.easeOut, clip._x, (rul._width - clip.w)/2, 1, true);
The part you need to focus on specifically is this;
(rul._width - clip.w)/2,
this is the part of the code that sets the x position. Right now it’s telling the pic to center itself. Change that part to whatever you want the x to be. For example, this is how the entire line should look if you wanted to have the pics x be 100;
t1 = new Tween (clip, "_x", Regular.easeOut, clip._x, 100, 1, true);

You can basically delete the line on 110 and copy in the line above then change the 100 to whatever you want it.

Let me know how it goes. You can send me an email through my profile if you want as well (I’ll probably get your message faster that way)

Hi

Great gallery is it possible to make the display size of the thumbnails larger? Also can you change the background colour of the gallery?

Posted about 1 year ago

Yes and yes.

To change the background color just change it the way you’d change it in any file.

To change the size of the thumbnails you just change one variable. When you open the actionscript panel there will be 3 variable right at the top, it will look exactly like this;

ly = 150; //_y position of zoomed clip. thw = 90; //height of thumbnails. width will scale accordingly. spa = 5; //width of spacing between thumbs

it’s pretty self explanitory. Changing the value ly changes where the zoomed clip shows up. Changing the value of thw changes the size of the thumbnails and changing the value of spa adjusts the padding between the thumbnails.

Every image is a duplicate of one MC. To add any functionality drag the original picHolder MC on to the stage and make whatever mods you need to it.

I know this may be a strange question, but thought you may have some ideas. I just bought the gallery. It’s awesome, by the way. I have a VERY SMALL .fla file that I’ve put it in. I have quite a bit of pictures, around 60, however they are not big pictures, and it takes forever to load the thumbs. My server is completely clean, other than the images,the xml, swf, index.html, and I’ve reduced the image sizes dramatically. Can you think of anything within the file/script that I may be able to do to speed up loading time?

Just a thought… thanks. wade
