I Like To Buy , Is Posible To Set Diferent Time For Each Image , Swf ETC
Tanks and great file
# / posted on Mar 17, 2009 -
Your black banner rotator looks really nice! I am looking at purchasing this banner rotator but have a few questions first.
1. As the previous post asked, can the display time be set for each image or is it a global setting?
2. Can you provide a list of all 17 parameters that can be modified in the XML file or are they all shown in your overview above?
3. Is it possible to completely hide the menu buttons and just show the content?
4. Is is possible to change the color of the menu buttons?
5. Can the size of the menu buttons be modified via XML?
6. Is it possible to adjust the opacity of the text background?
7. Is it possible to not show any text on specific images but show the text on others?
8. I need to be able to run multiple instance of the banner rotator on various pages of my site. In order to do this I need to be able to specify seperate XML setting files to drive the various instances. I other words, when I embed the SWF file on my page, I need to be able to pass a specific XML setting file path via HTML params. I also need to be make sure that the SWF and XML setting files can located anywhere on my host and that they don’t have to be in the root directory which has been a problem with other banner rotators I have used.
The reason for all of the questions is that I don’t have a current version of Flash to be able to modify the .fla file directly. I’m still running Flash MX 2004 and need to be able to customize the banner rotator via XML.
Thanks.

Hi,
After purchased your files, I just realised it doesn’t contained swf and html.
I also don’t know how to generate/edit xml.
Is that possible for you to email me a swf , html and the 4 setting of xml files?
I would like to set my image width to 800px and height to 600 pixel.
thanks
cheers

Hello %u2013 i purchased your component. it%u2019s great %u2013 you can see it here http://www.nationalwebdevelopment.com/rs/6
1) i have a few questions %u2013 what are the rules on how the auto view will stop %u2013 it%u2019s not apparent to me.
2) how can i control the width of the text %u2013 i%u2019d like it to be wider than it is. Sometimes it could cover much of the slide rather than the small space alloted for text. Right now you have textPad, textSpace. Does textWidth exist?
thank you very much.
regards,
svb
ps %u2013 wonderful taste & work
pps – i accidentally thought i bought this at flashden but it was here.

Hello Jason,
After carefully reviewing all the other similar component, I finally decided to buy yours. One of the main reasons was that it said “Flash knowledge required: N/A” and I guess I interpreted that as “NO”. I do not know any Flash, eventho I have CS3 and CS4.
So, do you mind explaining me how I can do the Step2 and Step 3. or all that it says below:
*step2. drag a BannerRotatorBlack to stage form libary and set name to myBannerRotatorBlack
step3.
load config file
myBannerRotatorBlack.loadConfig(“config.xml”);
open sample XML.fla to test*
Or, will that be easier for you to send me an SWF file and it’s HTML by using setting1.xml and I can take it from there.
I will appreciate your help very much as i’m completely stuck with this component and would like to use it today.
Thanks
Al ;-)

I’m in the exact same situation as the previous post.
I really like your component, but have no flash knowledge, and have no idea what your instructions step #2 and #3 are done. Don’t have flash.
Can you provide some simple instructions on how to embed this component in an HTML site.
If anyone else finds an answer to this problem, a post would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi All,
Same thing here, I got all the files, I see the xmls files, but how do I do step 2 and 3.
Am I supposed to create a JS file, HTML file, what do I do with the files I received?
How can I place them on a page?
I created a config.xml file as well, well I actually renamed the setting1 file, but I do not know where do you do this part:
step3.
load config file
myBannerRotatorBlack.loadConfig (“config.xml”);
Is this above part a JS command to be place somewhere?
Thank you all.
I got CS3 as well and I can edit the files.

I sort of figured out, I just exported the file name ‘source’ to a flash movie and inserted this last into my html and booouuaaallaaaa, the thing is there, now I will start playing with the xml file.

Hey Lmaza,
Do you mind explaining how you did it a bit more. Will help many of us alot, obvioulsy.
Thanks

Ok, this is what I did, it may work for some of you, it did work for me.
Among the files we received, there is a file called ‘source’, what I ended up doing was opening that file in flash, and then I use the ‘Export movie’ option, this created a movie file, which I then included on a regular html file.
Now I found out that the file that control the picture, text, styles and everything, as the example comes in is called ‘setting1.xml’, this is where you can change the text, color, and other things that you will find, picture names, location, everything.
The actual files are storage in a folder ‘files’, you can change the name of the picture on your xml or you could just rename and reuse the files already there.
I am copying the code for the html I am using. The only thing this does is include the movie file on an html.
If you remove a photo from the ‘files’ folder you will see that it fails to display that image, if you remove the ‘setting1.xml’ file the whole thing will not work, this is just if you want to check it out and make sure that is working.
Let me know if this works for you.

Does anyone know how to include special characters into the xml file?
This is what I am trying to include : ?????? and so on , just spanish characters.
I thought that this was controlled by this :
encoding=“utf-8”?>
but it looks like that does not do the trick.

Hi Imaza,
Just wondering, did you embed all the characters you need in the flash file?
# / posted on Apr 17, 2009 -
thanks all:
you need to read help file
and step by step
to open the source.fla with flash 8 or cs3 or cs4
it’s very easy
and if you want to embed more other char
just open library and find
BannerRotatorBlackFloder->BannerRotatorBlackItemTextHorizontalText->text_txt
and
BannerRotatorBlackFloder->annerRotatorBlackItemTextVerticalText->text_txt
to embed more char

Arnolda,
No I have not embeded more characters in the flash file, I will do what is described below to see if I can get it going.
# / posted on Apr 17, 2009

Is this what I am looking where to add more characters:
public function set text(value){ __text = value;
__textHorizontal.text_txt.htmlText = __text; __textVertical.text_txt.htmlText = __text;
That is what I found in BannerRotatorBlackItem file, now if I am going to add more characters, in this case special character, what do I do?, Just add the ‘?’ character in there?

Looks very pretty, but almost impossible to get it to work as advertised unless you own Flash CS3/4 and can edit to create your own swf. You need to be experienced with flash to use this.
Instructions are a joke. Developer responds to questions by telling you to read the useless instructions.
I’m tempted to argue for my money back, but have already wasted enough time with this.

hi rvanderbe:
all you need is open the source.fla with flash8,cs3, or cs4
and publish swf file
many people buy my file
but only a few people have some qustion
and i always glad to help them
i think maybe you need to study how to use flash

Hello.
thank you for answering my question with pauseAutoSwitchOnMouseOver = true.
However i asked a second question and you didn’t respond to it.
THIS IS ONLY FOR RIGHT OR LEFT WHERE THE TEXT IS STACKED.
how can i control the width of the text. i’d like it to be wider than it is. Sometimes it could cover much of the slide rather than the small space allotted for text. Right now you have textPad, textSpace. Does textWidth exist?
PLEASE RESPOND THE ANSWER IS IMPORTANT TO MY PROJECT RIGHT NOW.
please see this link
thank you in advance.
ps i will test your response above now. thanks.

additonally i already had pauseAutoSwitchOnMouseOver = true implemented. the movie does pause if moused over – howver if you click any or some or many (who knows) of the panel switches the movie sometimes stops forever, sometimes resumes after an unknown amount of time. I don’t know what -* if i don’t have the rules and can’t explain it to someone i can’t use it.
thanks again
again this is the link
best regards,
vigdor

hi vigdor:
A1: sorry, you can set text width in this version
you can see all property at my component description
that is all
but you can try to modify fla file
if you really don’t need someone to modify it i also provide custom service
A2: that is because when you click html element,you will set focus out the swf movie, so maybe you need click swf movie to set focus at swf movie, than it will work well,if you make an full flash site you will not have this question

hi ufoufoufo
I have bought this black banner rotator, but could not use it. According to step 1 in help file, I created config.xml. Rest I could not follow. I do not know flash at all. Do I need to compile the swf after each config file change ?
# / posted on May 03, 2009

hi born
you don’t need to recompile it
just edit the xml file
it will be upgrade

Hi Ufoufoufo, We have bough this menu system. Looks really good. We’d like the menu system to call a second instance of itself. – ie clicking a menu item at the top calls another instance (swf) of your menu as a subemnu system across the bottom. But recursion doesn’t work. Is there any tweak I can make to the fla file to get this going? Cheers Chris
