I've just uploaded an improved version of this file, which adds vertical rotation option and a few bug fixes.
modcam, what you see in the demo is as smooth as you can get.
m88m, the number of icons is the number of images you specify in the XML file. So if you're specifying 3 images, you'll see 3 images. If you're adding 100 entries in the XML, you'll see 100 icons in the carousel.

I download your flash product 2-27-08, do I have all your updates included in that download? If not, my apologies, where do I go to get the "image description" option?
Thanks,
JD "snowcat" Hi,
I just re-uploaded an improved carousel.
This version adds:
- smooth images movement
- blur effect (optional)
- image description (optional)
Cheers!
Snowcat

It's a great job!!
I'd love to customize it making it revolve vertically and in 2D, can it be done? what variables do I have to change?.
By 2D I mean to see the pics revolving around an empty space. In that space I want to show the pics.
Thanks!

Is it posible to place an movie clip (image and flv - stream) inside of a carousel to make objects rotate around of the mc?
# / posted on Mar 04, 2008 -
hi snowcat, sorry if i wasn't clear. i'm using your carousel and wish to implement the following:
1. on-click on the rotating images, i'd like to load a swf instead of the images in the carousel.
2. i'd like the newly loaded swf to play within the same space as the carousel swf
this is where i'm at: http://www.dnamuse.com/process.html
any more clarification on it will be greatly appreciated.
thanks! : ivy :

xwabbit, anything could be done with proper coding, what you're asking for could be done but it would be a little bit different carousel project

hello -
i've used the code below to have the icons link to frames in my movie, however I'm still having no luck...I've been putting the number of the frame I want to link to in the xml file (url=27)...is there something else I should be putting in the xml file to link to the correct frame? Thanks for your help!
this.onPress = function() {
if (i == 2)
getURL(urls[i], target);
else gotoAndPlay(i);
};

I have made .PNG icons and they come out ok.
One problem, they are suppose to show a clear background and they show a white one instead.
I have another carousel from another company and it's working fine.
I just like yours better because of the vertical feature, blur effect and all other settings.
So, is it possible to get your carousel working with transparent background .PNG icons ?

Hi,
first thanks for the great code it's awesome and helped me finish my task for my client, im using firefox for testing and it's perfect, i teweaked it to contain 7 images in just 194px width -144 height (just a lil banner with links).
the issue is that client said that when you click a button in it and then press back button to go to the index page, the carousel appears displaced [moves like 100 pixels to the left] (iexplore 6-7).
Thanks again and will check soon hoping to find an answer maybe,
Regards

I was having the same issue with the movie moving 100 pixels to the left. It has to do with the setting the scale mode:
Find this line of code:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
and change to :
//Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
It fixed the isssue for me

tlab66: for PNG's you'll have to use "carousel menu.fla" instead of "carousel menu smooth.fla"
msinternet: if locally works fine, then there must be an embedding or path problem on the remote server
buddybsa: sorry for that, I've uploaded the MX 2004 version now

I've noticed some adverse affects when putting the menu into vertical mode... Rather than go over the steps I've taken to solve my problems yet create other problems... Is there a chance you can put the fla you modified for the 3D Carousel Image Menu demo 3 in the download?
# / posted on Apr 29, 2008 -
Yeah, I'm struggling a little with the vertical mode as well. How do you get this thing to align straight the way it is in your demo?
# / posted on May 02, 2008 -
Hi,
I just uploaded in the Downloads section of the product the FLAs of all demos, including the vertical one.

dnexus: I reuploaded the commerchial files in the special package just now
msinternet: a thought, try specify full absolute path for the images in the xml file (including https), otherwise i think it's a path problem, not a security one
dauricejordan: to modify the variables specified in the description of this product you have to open and modify the .fla file provided in the package with Adobe Flash. All the code is in the first frame of the carousel_container symbol.

I have Flash CS3 Professional. I am trying to adjust the parameters and the images. When I open the Flash files:
carousel menu.fla
carousel menu smooth.fla
carousel menu mx2004.fla
I only see the carousel and background layers. When ever I select one of these layers and click on the parameters tab at the bottom of the screen the tab reads:
Parameters are applicable to components only.
Please inform me what needs to be done in order to adjust the parameters and select the images that will be used.

Hi snowcat,
The swf views correctly when previewed directly from flash, but if you attempt to view the swf by double clicking it the carousel shifts to the left, and is half off the screen. The HTML output shows the file correctly.
When trying to place the swf into a css page the carousel disappears completely when previewed.
Can you explain what i need to do to correct this please.

I'm having problems correcting the size of my images in the carousel. I have adjusted the actualHeight, actualWidth, the "inner" layer size. but it does not seem to work, any suggestions.
thanks

I am trying to reduse the height and width of the carousel so that it will take a maximum space of 550px to 200px (W - H).
Can you please help me?
# / posted on Jun 30, 2008 -
Snowcat,
great carousel! I can get the demo to work fine, but when I insert the commercial files, they display incorrectly. It is smaller and shifted to the left. It is also cut in half. Any ideas?
