3D Wall

This component is provided as a compiled installable .mxp component (we do not provide the source files for it). You can set the XMLSource parameter through ActionScript once only – only for the initial load. You do this using init, like this: wall.init(“xmfilename.xml”);

Thanks for your response. We would also like to set the base path for the Images programatically. We would like to specify only the relative path of the images in the XML file. The component should be able to use the root path set and append the relative path from the XML file to load the images. How can we set the base patch for the images from the code?

1: Is the scrollbar fully adjustable in size? We need it to be bigger (aprox double size in height).

2: Or will it be possible to replace the scrollsbar with big arrows ( 50?50 pixels) pointing left and right?

3: Can I link the thumbnails to an external swf. file, flv.movie, or create a image link to a website??

4: And is it be possible to and sound fx on buttons, scrollbar or thumbnail clicks?

This is just some things we need to know before we purchase this product

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Am trying to understand something. So it is possible to link or anchor thru an image on the 3d wall to an .htm, or .swf ? How does Active Script allow this?

Thank you!

@tommyboy:

You can use the ActionScript events that are built-into the 3D Wall to perform any action on clicking on an image. You can also assign parameters to each image in the XML file. This way, you can tell it to open a URL or to load an SWF that’s entered in the parameters for that image.

If you need any more specific instructions, please contact us through the private message section and we’ll be happy to help.

You can actually now include any additional parameters for each image in the XML like this:

????<img src=“tree.jpg” name=“tree” desc=“Big tree” /> <img src=“house.jpg” name=“house” desc=“A house” /> <img src=“car.jpg” name=“car” desc=“Red car” />

You would the access that parameter in an event using the getUserProperty method like this:

title_txt.text = evt.image.getUserProperty(“name”);

Please download the latest userguide as this includes these updated instructions.

Hi again, thanks for the help.
I have a new question though.. Can I make the scrollbar invisible when I click on a thumbnail and the large image is on? and make it back visible when the thumbnails are back in.

Thanks

hi i saw in your forums that u suggested sending you the actual flash cs4 doc so u cud be the ones to put the 3dwall on to it, save it and send back to them.

can you do this for me as im having the same problems and havent got time to reinstall windows to a diff os as im on a tight timeframe to finish some work

where, how can i send my .fla file ?

thank you

@webworks,

You will need some basic knowledge of Flash in order to place the component on the stage, set the correct size, background color and publishing settings. You will also need Flash CS3 or CS4 for this.

You can put it on a Wordpress site, however it is not just one file to upload as there will be the Flash SWF file as well as the XML file and the images. Your best way to do this would be to ftp all of the files to the server instead of uploading through Wordpress.

The published size of the Flash file is about 90-100kb. The end file size will depend on the file size of each of the images (thumbnails large images). If you add all of them up you’ll get the end size.

@sloop

Yes you can add buttons to change the XML file dynamically (this feature requires the latest version which is available for download).
