  • Hi FlashBlue. Just bought this one from you. Very nice, congrats.
    I am actually trying to embed Myrad Pro Cond Fonts, for both caption titles. I already embedded them in fla source, but cannot find the path nor the actionscript involved. can you help me please?
    Thanks! pintorob81@hotmail.com

  • Open com/flashdo/flashblue/Banner.as


    Search for “Swis721 Md BT” & “Arial”. Replace them with “Myrad Pro Cond”.

  • Hi Flashblue


    I bought this one. Great.


    I just want to put all of the component stuff in a folder called “gallery” in the root of my main webpage – where my main FLA is, and access it from there.


    I get this when calling the banner.swf from an UIloader in my main FLA:


    Error: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at com.flashdo.flashblue::Main()


    What do I do?


    Thanks,
    Boe

  • I fixed it. Please, re-download.


    #  /  posted on Aug 17, 2009
  • Yep, thanks.
    Only thing is that I have to put all of your subfolders in my root.
    Preferably I’d like to have it all in a ‘gallery’ folder.


    Best,
    Boe

  • Hi flashblue,


    Just got this component and it’s great. But I’m having trouble with the buttons and I’ll need your help:


    1- Can I change the size of the thumbnails (with and height)?
    2- How can I change the numbers of thumbnails presented. I have only 6 images to show and there’s 7 thumbs. I tried to delete the last item on the XML but just deleted the main pic.


    I will be waiting for your reply.


    Thanks.

  • Hi how can i change speed of thumbnails?


    #  /  posted on Sep 28, 2009
  • Storas: Open com/flashdo/flashblue/Banner.as. You’ll see that code on line 25:


    public var speed:int = 8; 
    


    You can change scroll speed there. Then, you need to re-export fla source.

  • clabap: Open fla source.


    Go to library. Select banner/buttons/itemBtn.
    You can change thumbnail size there.


    You just need to delete item from XML between <item> and </item> to show 6 items.

  • I embedded the swf on my page but the first image does not load until I click a thumb.


    I embedded it with this:


    <object width="590" height="300"> 
    <param name="movie" value="banner.swf"> 
    <embed src="banner.swf" width="590" height="300"> 
    </embed> 
    </object> 
    


    Here is a screenshot: http://i35.tinypic.com/xapifd.jpg


    Thanks!

  • It causes from wrong CSS file path. Look at XML file cssFile=“css/banner.css” parameter.

  • Hi flashblue


    I want to change picture:
    width=“590” height=“500”


    What do I do?


    #  /  posted on Oct 09, 2009
  • You need to change 300 to 500 in XML & HTML.

  • I want to make the showContent stick to the image. Now it only shows when you move the mouse over the picture.


    I have change this:
    if (globals.showContent) { image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, showContent); image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, showContent);


    But now I want to show it directly when the image load, so no mouseEvent. Someone knows how i can do that?


    #  /  posted on Nov 10, 2009
  • Remove that codes on line 452:


    if (globals.showContent) { 
    image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, showContent); 
    image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, hideContent); 
    } 
    


    Add that code to line 535:


    Tweener.addTween(contentBox,{alpha:1,time:0.3,transition:"easeOutSine"});

  • hi fb – great work on this component… question about the html formatting w/in the description tag… is there anything special that needs to be done like escaping characters? I tried adding <strong> <b> or class=“bold” to that area but the text always looks the same. thanks.


    #  /  posted on Nov 12, 2009
  • You can change font colors. I didn’t include bold-italic type of fonts for bigger swf size. If you send me a private message, I can send you them added version.

  • Oh – and i change the film size to 650 × 400
    yvonne


    #  /  posted on Dec 21, 2009
  • You should change 590 to 650 & 300 to 400 from HTML & XML .


    #  /  posted on Dec 21, 2009
  • Yes, I do this first.
    XML :<globals width=“650” height=“400”


    HTML: object classid=“clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000” width=“650” height=“400” id=“FlashID” title=“Zimmerbilder”>
    Before I change the BG and the arrow color in the Flash File, it works with the new size.

  • Hi FB,


    Sorry to be a pain but having trouble getting this to show up on my site. All the Deploy folders & files are in this directory (images/flash/...) It works fine locally using the index.html example included in your files, but not online despite me having changed some paths.


    This is the code I am using to embed the app into my page. Can you help me? I much appreciate it! Thanks :)


    <script type=“text/javascript” src=“images/flash/swfobject/swfobject.js”></script>
    <div id=“banner_div”>&nbsp;</div>
    <script language=“javascript” type=“text/javascript”>


    var flashvars = {
    xmlUrl: “images/flash/xml/banner.xml” //Use to change XML filename or location
    };
    var params = {
    scale: “noscale”,
    menu: “false”,
    bgcolor: “#000000”
    };
    var attributes = {
    id: “banner_swf”,
    name: “banner_swf”
    };
    swfobject.embedSWF(“banner.swf”, “banner_div”, “630”, “340”, “9”, “images/flash/swfobject/expressInstall.swf”, flashvars, params, attributes);

  • For anyone with a similar problem, here is the reply I got from FB. Works like a charm. Thx FB!


    *********


    Hi,
    If you used index.html code to include swf source into your site, change this line like:
    var params = {
                            scale: “noscale”,
                            menu: “false”,
                            bgcolor: “#000000”
                        };
    To:
    var params = {
                   base: “images/flash/”,         scale: “noscale”,
                   menu: “false”,
                    bgcolor: “#000000”
                        };


    and change this line:
    swfobject.embedSWF(“banner.swf” ....


    To:
    swfobject.embedSWF(“images/flash/banner.swf” ...
