Features

You can easily put the scroller any position you like (top, bottom, left, right) and set the images to any dimensions. Customizable scroller movement.

Here is a list of variables you can change in the FLA file:
- verticalMenu
- imageWidth & imageHeight
- bigImageWidth & bigImageHeight
- menuX & menuY
- bigImageX & bigImageY
- spacing
- inColor & outColor & coloringSpeed
- minScrollSpeed & maxScrollSpeed
- scrollEaseIn & scrollEaseOut
- preloaderSize

- useRandomTransitions
- showDescription
- showDetailedInfo
- useMirror

You can specify the images and description text through the XML file. The images can have any dimensions, they are automatically resized. They all should have the same dimensions.

There are 4 transitions included from Mask Transitions.

Installation instructions for:

The Image Gallery FX component is available for Flash CS4, CS5, CS5.5 and requires Flash Player 10 or later. To use this product in Flash you need the MXP file that is available only in the paid package.

You can see an example of how to install a component in Flash Professional here.

In this video you will see:
- how to create an instance of the component on the stage: from the Components panel (Ctrl+F7) drag & drop the component on the stage
- how to give a name to an instance for further use in ActionScript: click on the component instance on the stage and from the Properties panel (Ctrl+F3) enter a name in the text input
- how to access the properties of the component (read or modify) during different moments of your Flash application

Any property of the component could be accessed that way. The names of the properties are identical with the ones from the settings.xml file. The properties of the component can be any of these three types: Number, String, Boolean. We assume it’s intuitive of which type each property is.

Warning! Setting the parameters of the component in the Component Inspector window (Shift+F7) and in the same time having a settings.xml file populated with different values for each property, the properties from the settings.xml file will have priority (meaning that a parameter set in the Component Inspector will be ignored if that parameter is also defined in the XML file).

For now, this component does not dispatch events, but stay tuned for an update.

Hi,
Thanks for offering such a great product!
Is there a way to adjust the scrolling thumbs while in mouse over?
Currently, if you mouse over to change direction of the thumbs, there is only a small pix range where the thumbs stop moving, maybe only 2 -3 pix. I find myself ‘Chasing’ the thumbs to get them to stop or to click one.
Is this adjustable somewhere in the AS?

Thanks again for your great products!

What you want would require some custom changes to our product but unfortunately we don’t have any developer available for something like this. You have to complete AS code and if you have programming knowledge you can make any changes you want.

When I click on a picture in the gallery (the one enlarged and presently displayed), I would like for it to open in another tab, perhaps the original size of the photo in the gallery.

Right now, if you click on the picture there’s a like to this website (not exactly what I had in mind!).

Here are my settings.xml file contents:
<settings> <General_Properties> <position value=“bottom”/> <hide value=“alpha”/> <slideDirection value=“leftright”/> <time value=“1”/> <motion value=“Cubic”/> <ease value=“easeOut”/> <useButton value=“false”/> <arrow value=“assets/redarrow.png”/> <margin value=“0”/> <path value=“DockMenuFX”/> <showAbout value=“true”/> </General_Properties>
</settings>

Any help you can offer would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
John

Hi,

In images.xml you can set url to images full size like you want, and when you click to the big image to open a link in full size and to open in another tab change the value of target to _blank.

hello,

I have used your gallery to a flash site of mine. It is an excellent gallery but I have a problem. I created an empty movie clip to my flash fla and I load the external swf with the gallery.
However when I load the gallery into my flash file, the thumbs use all the width of my flash page and not the width of the big image as they should. Do you now how can I fix that?
I would like the width of the thumbs to be the same as the width of the bid image.

thank you, Niki

Hi,

This component is one of our earliest and most basic files and it wasn’t really designed for flash projects. To make it behave like you want is not possible, as we have already created more complex galleries, like the Dock Gallery, and after payment can be integrated effortlessly in any AS3 project.

Hello, is it possible to put more links in the enlarged images?
Afterwards can I add 2 buttons to go back and forward?

FlashXML Support

Hi,

Unfortunately you can’t do that. You will have to do a custom mod to this basic, free component. Please note that any custom modifications are beyond any support service. These basic Flash files are some of our older components that we offer free of charge to anyone who would like to use them.
