I changed the y coordinates of the thumbnails to
thumbholder_sp.y=stage.stageHeight-230;
How can I change the big images to go above the thumbnails?

It’s can’t display the chinese after i change the xml file, please help me!!

You need to embed the Chinese characters.
Do this:
Go to the library select the “desc final” MovieClip and open it with double click or right click then edit.
Select txt_txt Text field inside the “desc final” MovieClip, with txt_txt Text selected press the Embed button from the Properties tab .
Then you need to select from the Character Embedding list the characters that you need I think are Chinese (All) ...
After you made that test the movie, if the font supports Chinese then it will work.
If you like send me the .fla and I will do this for you.

Is there any way to change the thumbnail sizes? The current setting is a bit small to us. Thx!

Hi
I bought one of yours yesterday..i got all the images on it…but I just wonder can you change the flash cs3,cs4 INTO flash 8 please!!?

Unfortunately this is not possible, this gallery is coded with actionscript 3.0 and flash 8 works with actionscript 1.0 and 2.0.

Hi. Thanx for building these fine galleries.
i manages to put the thumbs on top of the page.
can i ask how to position the main images somewhat lower or set a margin so its not over the thumbs.
kind regards

You will have to change the calcBigImg() function, in there is some complex math , the idea is to move the big image and the white background on the y axis(don’t touch the x axis), so search for where you see thins “- _limit/2 + 8” and change the 8 number, increase or decrease that number until you get it right, there is to much to explain but try that.

sir, could give me some hints on how i should scale images down a bit, i like to have a menubar at the bottom and need a ‘fixed’ marge between the bottom of the main movie and the bottom of the images if this is possible.
i also appreciate if you could tell me how to show the descWindow_mc automatically when the image is done loading
tia,
fair

To change the scaling the esaiest way is to change the W and H variables in the calcBigImg function, as you can see is not something simple to understand that formula , add at the end of that variable s number like below, the biger the number the smaller the image will be.
var W:Number = stage.stageWidth-limit – 100;
var H:Number = stage.stageHeight-limit – 100;
About the descWindow I think is best to leave it the way it is else the code needs to be change in to many places.

Hi :-)
I would like to use the gallery on several pages, showing different image collections.
I can’t figure out how to specify the /load folder.
Please help!
#  /  posted on May 14, 2009

You need to recompile the movie with a different name and create a new folder for a new collection.
Search for this variable in the .fla “var _xmlPath:String = “load/images.xml”;” there change “load/images.xml” with your new path, note that you need to change the paths in the new xml file also.
#  /  posted on May 14, 2009 -
uuh – not so nice :-(
I am not a flash developer – so I can’t recompile anything!
We are using DynamicWeb CMS, and it puts limitations on where to place files. The flash movie “thinks” its being executed from the root-dir. But in fact its placed in a deep directory, and I cant create a folder under root.
Would it not be possible to add a parameter for that purpose, just like there are parameters for urls to the swf files, colors aso ??
Br,
Jesper

Hmm, for this version is not possible, I never thought that is hard to change a variable with a different name, but I will take this into consideration for future products.
All you need to do is to copy the index.fla and rename it with how you wish(for example “collection1.fla”), then open the file with flash CS 3+, change _xmlPath:String = “load/images.xml” with a new name like
_xmlPath:String = “collection1/images.xml”, then export the movie, also make a new directory with the name collection1 in which you will have the new .xml file and the images, change the the xml pats and you are done.
Is 10 min work, and for this you don’t have to know anything about programing.

thank you so far!
i like to reuse the gallery in one movie.
i simply fill the _xmlPath:String with a url from a button and let te movie play from a frame where the advanced XML image gallery assets are located.
the problem is however when i load another url in _xmlPath there are 2 galleries on top of each other.
how should i re-initialize the gallery buildGallery(); function
thx
fair

This requires some serious changes to the code, you need to remove everything created before creating another gallery, this gallery is build in as 3.0, this means that the objects created will not be destroyed by them self like in as 2.0, you need to remove all manually with code. I can’t offer support for something like that, you will need to find a solution for that.

Hi there, I have bought this gallery as it is what I am looking for, thanks. rouble is I am a newbie in Flash and I can’t find a way to add this gallery to a flash site I am building. basically I just need the gallery to appear instead (or better into) a page that will load witha button from the menu. I imagine this must be easy, but so far I could not find an explanation detailing what I need to do. Any help is appreciated. Cheers

How do you disable the loupe?
Also, how can I move the “move left arrow” to the left side of the big image?
TIA!
#  /  posted on Jun 15, 2009

The left arrow can be moved only if the code is changed.
The loupe can be changes in the xml file for each image by setting the max attribute to no, read the help.txt file careful.
