    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?

    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?

    How do we get the demos? I bought the special package but this page does not register me as a buyer of the Carousel.

    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.

    Snowcat -

    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

    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?
