Creating a simple slide show

I'd like to create a slide show using 30 jpeg files.  I'd like each slide to pause for 5 seconds before moving to the next one and for it to go in a loop.  I would need to be able to save it as a swf file.  I'm using Flash professional CC.
I can't find a simple straight forward guide for doing this.
Any help much appreciated.

Put the images along the timeline as I indicated and place the following code in a separate layer in frame 1...
var timer:Timer = new Timer(5000);  // creates a timer set to trigger every 5 seconds
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, changeFrames); // creates a listener for when the timer executes
timer.start();
function changeFrames(evt:TimerEvent):void {
     if(currentFrame == 30){
          gotoAndStop(1);
     } else {
          nextFrame();
stop();  // stops at frame 1 for the start of the slideshow

  • Is there a good flash tutorial for a simple slide show?

    Basically I want to create a very simple slide show just like
    the one on the
    main page at www.bv.com
    Is there a article or something anywhere so I can learn how
    to do this using
    Flash? Also is there an article on how to create text that
    flys in from the
    left or right?

    I googled "flash slideshow" and got 25,200,000 returns ;)
    www.kirupa.com has one (loads external images)
    and www.gotoandlearn.com might have one.

  • Is there a way to create a rotating slide show that changes once every 24 hours?

    Is there a way to create a rotating slide show that changes once every 24 hours?

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Then try deleting the library again.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Can I create an iDVD slide show and keep the picture resolution high so the pictures will be HDTV quality or near HDTV quality for playback on a DVD player?

    How do I create an iDVD slide show that does not compress the photos making them low-res? When I insert the iDVD I have made into a DVD player connected to an HDTV, the playback quality of the pictures are very low.  Is there a way to correct this when creatinf the iDVD?

    The post by Bengt Wärleby in this topic describes a workflow for producing a high quality slideshow but not an HD one as macpmaus pointed out isn't possible: Create HD slideshow: Apple Support Communities

  • Trying to get simple slide show to work.

    Can anyone tell me why this simple slide show isn't working on the left side of my page? The black and white image should be changing and showing two other images every 2.5 seconds.

    Thanks,
    John

    Assuming you're following these steps
    http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/show2.shtml
    You seem to have omitted the name attribute in the <img> tag described in Step 3.
    I'm still not sure if that fixes it but see how you go.

  • IPhoto crashes when creating a new slide show

    iPhoto immediately crashes, when I try to create a new slide show.
    I have already tried to create a completely new library, but happens just the same: I want to create a new slide show (with only some pictures), and then the program crashes and I must kill it via "force quit".
    I also de-installed iPhoto and then installed it again. No change at all. The program chrashes when I try to create a new slide show.
    Any idea what could help?

    It looks like there's something in your account that's the culprit.  It could be a preference file other than iPhoto's.  Here's how to test that:
    Trouble Shooting Preferences
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    1 - close all applications.
    2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop. 
    3 - select the contents of your Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock.  You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
    4 - reboot.
    5 - run the application again and determine if the problems is fixed
    6 - If the problem is fixed:
    A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    B - Open the Preferences  folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
    D - reboot.
    7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
    8 - reboot.

  • Creating a Flash Slide-Show

    Hello Community,
    Can somebody explain shortly how to create a Flash Slide-Show in a HTML Document? Let's say I have 5 images with logo and want that they change every 10 seconds. Do I need to work with JavaScript?
    Regards,
    MC

    Your best bet will be to search Google using terms like "AS3 slideshow tutorial"  (or use "AS2" if that's your preference).
    A flash slideshow will not be likely to use javascript since Flash primarily uses actionscript.

  • Simple Slide Show  makes all photos landscape. Why?

    I am trying to make a simply slide show and all photos are incorporated in "landscape" mode no matter whether they were taken in the usual landscape orientation or in a "portrait," or vertical, orientation. So all the portraits of people where the photo was shot by turning the camera 90 degrees clockwise show the subject horizontally in the slide show. How can I rotate these photos 90 degrees counterclockwise to get them back to the orientation in which they were taken? I opened the Simple Slide Show .PDF in Adobe Acrobat but when I rotate one picture 90 clockwise, all photos in the show are rotated 90 degrees clockwise. John Wirt

    Since you said Simple Slide Show, my guess is that you have Elements version 3.
    You did not say how if your camera photo files are designating that this was a portrait mode photo. There is an orientation indicator that many (but not all) cameras set indicating that the camera had been turned to portrait orientation when taking the photo.
    My experience has been that if the camera is setting this indicator, then when I first view a portrait photo in the photo well, it looks OK. Whereas if the camera does not set this indicator, the photo initially appears on its side and I must rotate it myself.
    What did you initially see in the Photo Browser for these photos - as a portrait or on its side?
    My suspicion is that there is a bug in the Elements 3 slide show that it is not recognizing this orientation indicator and that is why you see a portrait photo on its side.
    If your camera does set the orientation indicator, a circumvention is that before you do any edits on such a photo, in the Organizer Photo Browser well, rotate it 90 degrees one direction and then rotate it back to its original position. Then it will probably appear ok in your simple slide show. This cicrumvention has worked for many people.

  • When I create a DVD slide show, the images on TV are 4:3 instead of 16:9. Fix? (Using version 11.)

    When I create a DVD slide show, the images on TV are 4:3 instead of 16:9. Fix? (Using version 11.)

    Hi Christina,
    I used it because other facets of my work in graphics require conversion, not just FCP, so I am used to popping it open quickly using it on the fly, in the field when shooting. I back up, then convert typically on my laptop while it sits on the seat of my pickup while I am photographing the next portion of the training. I do have the files backed up (in ordered structure as shot and preserved on the cards) both on my laptop, also mirrored in the RAID and once again on a second external firewire LaCie and make sure that every little file is in there as it should be. Thanks for the info. on that though, appreciate it. Will probably switch to using FCP to that level of Log and Capture in the future because it seems more basic. I am not sure using L&C would make any difference on the problem I seem to be having here. I will create a small sample file and give it a try for future reference. Again, thank you.
    Up until this week the  Quicktime conversions I have been creating and composing from have been compressed in H.264 (720 X 480 to fit our LMS stage), and have been working well without a hitch. And 8 of the 11 of these sequences are still exported to a true 16:9 without a hitch. They are sharp, bright and the color is great. The three orphans are also sharp with good color, however squished from side to side. It simply makes no sense that data that has been saved identically, edited identically and exported with identical settings would change in mid-stream like that.
    Thanks for taking the time to reply. I do appreciate that very much.

  • I can not open i photo. it needs a library that i can use to import photos but i created already books, slide shows and had over 6.000 pictures in the librarybut i can

    i photo does not open. It says i photo needs a photo library but I had more that 6.000 pictures in my library. I created already books and slide shows. it seems everthing is gone.
    I get as reply
    - select a library from list -- but no list
    or
    - find another library
    or
    - create a new one and import photos later
    any chance te recuperate  or  find all I had in i photo

    You can try and recover deleted files from your Mac with an app like File Salvage
    To create a new Library:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'.By default it goes in your Pictures Folder.
    To save book etc that you have created you need to back up your Library.
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    Also, please don't type in block capitals. They are hard to read and on the forum it looks like you'e shouting at everybody.

  • How do I create image pushing slide show in Flash?

    Hi. I am wondering if anybody can tell me how to create a picture PUSH. I have three images that I wish to work with. By pushing I mean having an image come in from the left (or right) and place itself on top of the other (or pushing the other out of view). Like a slide show of three images scrolling along but one stops for a brief period before the other image comes into view.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!

    As Pat mentioned, this question might be best suited for the Flash Professional forum, I just happen to have the link handy
    Thanks,

  • Create 16:9 slide shows!?

    Why can't I create slide shows in 16:9 format!? 4:3 is so outdated today (2013).

    If you don't have Premiere Elements as well, then you are limited to the Windows Media formats. In addition to the profiles I pointed out above, I've since seen that Photoshop Elements is supplied with several more options in the path C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer\Assets\locale\en_US\tv_profiles (for PSE12).
    The ones entitled 'Widescreen Enhanced Definition and Widescreen High Definition may be worth trying. If neither these, nor the the HD Windows Media format I linked to above. still don't produce what you want, then you will need to look elsewhere for a solution. ProShow Gold - Fast and Fun HD Slideshows, a dedicated slide show program, is well recommended.
    Please do try those other profiles and post back if they worked for you or not.

  • Simple slide show

    I am just beginning to learn Flash for work. I want to make a
    slide show for my parents' anniversary. Should I do this in Flash
    or is that making it more difficult than necessary. I'd like to use
    it though to reinforce what I'm learning ? I'll most likely have to
    run it on a television.
    Thanks in advance.
    Gretchen

    I wouldn't use flash as a video editing tool (especially for
    tv output). Exporting flash to avi (or related dvd media) is
    sometimes hit or miss when it comes to quality. Do you have any
    actual video editing tools? I would rather use the crappy Microsoft
    Movie Maker before flash for a simple slideshow to tv.

  • Simple slide show, 8 pics disolving, repeat

    I'm trying to figure out how to place (within a table cell)
    an image that slowly disolves into another image - a slideshow with
    5 to 10 images that loops. The identical-sized images are roughly
    300x420 px. I need to just have them swap with a dissolve, then
    loop - maybe 5 seconds each. This is where I am so far - not great,
    but this is the idea:

    check out this flash slide-show:
    http://webtrans1.com/demos/slide_show/slide_show_instructions.php
    it is plain and simple, and loops automatically through any
    number of images. You can customize it
    (size, speed, background-color, images centered or
    left-alitgned, etc.)
    No controls buttons.

  • So you need to use timeline for a simple slide show?

    Do you have to do anything with the timeline to run a simple
    looped slide show with no sound. What is a good rate (fps)? I am
    desperate. Why does it not advance to the next slide? How do you
    reset the program to its original defaults.

    Beyond adding your images and animating them...no. But not
    sure what you are referring to
    specifically when you ask what you have to do with the
    timeline - you certainly need the timeline to
    animate something over time. Flash will loop by default
    unless told to stop.
    What is a good rate (fps)?
    "good" is relative - depends on your needs - 1 frame rate may
    be good for some projects and very bad
    for others - depends on how heavy the animation is.
    I am desperate.
    Desperate for what exactly?
    Why does it not
    > advance to the next slide?
    Impossible to say without looking under the hood - "slide"?
    Are you using slides or the main
    timeline? We have no idea how your FLA is setup so we can't
    possibly troubleshoot it - provide some
    specific information or better yet the source file and we
    will take a look.
    How do you reset the program to its original
    > defaults.
    Not sure what you mean - default what? Panel layouts? Doc
    Properties? Why would this solve your
    problem(s)? The only way is to reinstall flash i believe -
    why do you need to do this?
