How to dynamically load images into Flash

I have a movie clip on the stage that I want to dynamically
load images into (that constantly change), how would I go about
doing this? Thanks.

Use the Loader class to load in images.
Then use addChild to add the Loader class into your MovieClip
on the stage.
As far as &quot;constantly change&quot; what
do you mean by that? You could use setInterval, ther enterFrame
event, or any other means to trigger a new image to be loaded into
the Loader instance.
Finally, you can use the Tween class to create some nice
effects for the images (fade it, blur in, photo blend, masks,
etc)

How To Dynamically Load Images in Crystal Reports?

Post Author: philips
CA Forum: General
What I want is to have image files saved on a local drive and the images to be loaded into a picute/image frame based on a certain condition - same way it's (easily) done with VB.Net or ASP.Net image objects.
Can you help?

Not in Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008. You'll have to upgrade to CR 2008 (12.x). Then use kbase [1320507|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do] as a guide on how to do this.

How we can import image into flash stage through AC3 code

Have a look at the Loader class. There are examples in the documentation.

Load image into holderMC

Hi,
I'm working on an application which places instances from my
library onto the stage. Every instance has a movieclip inside it
which is called holderMC. What I want to do is to load external
images into holderMC except I can't seem to get it working. How
does one load images into a pre-defined movieclip?

Oh, sorry, wasn't looking properly. You cannot load images
into MovieClips like in AS2, you have to use a Loader or the
UILoader component.
If you want to be able to position the loader visually, then
you can give an instance of the UILoader component and instance
name within the THEPhoto MC, and use the following code:
MovieClip(photo).holder.load(photoRequest); //where holder is
the instance name of the loader.
OR
Within the ThePhoto class you could create a new Loader:
public var imgLoader:Loader = new Loader();
public function ThePhoto () {
imgLoader.x = 0;
imgLoader.y = 0;
addChild(imgLoader);
and then use:
MovieClip(photo).imgLoader.load(photoRequest);

Dynamically loaded images cached?

We have an xml feed that is refreshed every hour. According
to the xml file, we dynamically load an image into an html text
field each time someone hits our page. All of the images have been
recently updated, but the old ones are still appearing? We use the
swf?nocache=randomnumber convention to make sure the swf file
itself isn't cached, but is there anything we can do to clear out
the cache of dynamically loaded images? If there isn't anything we
can do, will these all eventually refresh themselves? This is how
the html is generated where "twcImage[0]" is the image in question.
Thanks!

Do the same random number for the images.
twcImage[0] + randomnumber

Get width and height of a dynamically loaded image once it's done loading?!

hello : :
well... i'm taking my first shots at flex after programming
in flash for a year now. it's been fun and i've been picking up on
things pretty well (or so i think), but i come across something
today that i used to be able to do in my as2 programming and don't
know how to do in as3...
in flex, i'm loading an image into an image control (by using
"myImgControl.load(urlString)"). i have a "complete" parameter on
the image control that calls a function just fine after the image
is loaded, but if i try and check the hight and width of the loaded
image once it loads, it comes back as zero. how can i get the
height and width of the image after it's loaded?!
in flash/as2 i used to do this little trick/work-around i
found in a forum (kirupa.com, i think) to find out the width and
height once the loaded image listener checked the loading process
and came back "complete"... in the code below, "imgLoader" is the
movieClip the image was loaded using
imgLoaderListener.loadClip(urlString, imgLoader).
quote:
iTot = imgLoader.getBytesTotal();
iLoad = imgLoader.getBytesLoaded();
if (iLoad == iTot && iTot > 4) {
imgH = imgLoader._height;
imgW = imgLoader._width;
that all make sense?!
basically, it's as simple as this: i need to find something
similar to the above for as3 that will tell me the width and height
of a dynamically loaded image after it's done loading...
so there ya have it. i appreciate any help any of you can
throw my way! thank you so much for even reading this!
: : michael

I assume you have probably already figured this out, but just
in case, there should be an event to listen for after which you can
get the height and width information successfully. I can't remember
the exact name, however. Experiment and see which one works
time-wise.

Can any one tell me how to stream the images in flash.

You show a preview and use loadMovie() to load a big file.
You can
create a preloader (progress bar) showing how much part is
loaded,
while user sees the small image. When you achieve 100% tou
show that
big image. What's more?
> Can any one tell me how to stream the images in flash.
What are you talking about is not a "streaming", but
"progressive
download". Images "streaming" is impossible.

Sizing Dynamically loaded images

I've loaded images into a project at runtime they show, but
when I try to resize them they are set as a percentage of the
original size and not the pixel size. I've tried using setProperty
and object._width= and object._height=. Every place I've read
anything about the _width and _height properties says it should set
those values in pixels, but for some reason it's percentage for me.
I'm loading .jpg images
have flash 8 pro
How can I set the picture width and height in pixels?

you need to ensure that the picture is loaded(preferably
using MovieClipLoader.onLoadInit) before resizing.

Photoshop CC 2014 - Stack Mode Disabled - Load Image Into Stack Has No "Convert To Smart Object" Option

Hi,
I have just installed Photoshop CC 2014.1 and I have "Stack Mode" command disabled.
Also, I have no option to convert layers into smart object when I run "Load Image Into Stack" command.
Can you please tell me how to enable these features?
Thank you very much.

The 512 MB are a minimum requirement, not some optional thing. Without it, 3D will never work.

Load image into Photo Album

I'm new to Oracle.
Can I load image into database by using Photo Album by no writing any code?
And how?
If not,how to load image into database?

Yes you can. You can load media into the database into the photo album tables.
Is this what you want to do? What exactly are you trying to accomplish.
You can also use PL/SQL to put images into the database into your own schema (as with other database information)

Dynamically loading images: UI Loader issue

I posted this last week, but did not show good examples to get help. Admittedly, I am new to flash, so this may be a bit elementary, so my apologies in advance. I am trying to dynamically load images through the UI Loader component. Attached are the errors I get, and although I think that the coding is close to correct, when I publish, it just flashes up then restarts the movie... any ideas? Thanks in advance.

there's a problem attaching things to this forum. so, nothing is attached.
can you copy and paste your error messages to this forum?

Im searching for flash based forums, or a way to load forums into flash ? i found this
http://activeden.net/item/flash-forum/52576?page=1
Any ideas or recommendations would be greatly appreciated

You can load the raw html - if flash is told (e.g. via
flashvars) the url of the page that you want (its available in
flash as what you would think of as the browser's 'view source'
style plain text) with either as2 or as3.
But you can't do full browser-style rendering of the content
because flash just can't do all that. You could parse the raw html
(probably a custom parser as I think the internal xml parser might
choke on some of the tags in html that are not closed such as
<br> etc) and just pick out bits of text or images that you
could display but you can't achieve an embedded browser.
Adobe's AIR might be more what you want - it has embedded
browser support- but it doesn't run inside a browser like flash.

Loading images into memory

I have an applet that I need to load images into memory. For instance, lets say I am in the first section of the applet. While that section is being showed, I want to load the background image of the second section into memory.
To load the initial image into momory, I am just using a Mediatracker. No problem there. But I don't want to load all 20 backgrounds into memory at the same time as they take a lot of time. My understanding is that if I create a new MediaTracker while the first chapter is running, it will potentially cause some chaos, as that will stop my thread from running while I have an image loading.
Somebody told me perhaps I could create a new thread and have that thread load the backgroudn into momory? Perhaps something like this?
public class TestClass extends JApplet {
     private TestClass thisClass;
     public void init() {
          thisClass = this;
          Runnable r = new Runnable() {
               public void run() {
                    MediaTracker tracker = new MediaTracker(thisClass);
                    Image nextImage = getImage( getDocumentBase(), getImagePath() +"img1.jpg");
                    tracker.addImage(nextImage,0);
                    try {
                         tracker.waitForID(0);
                    } catch (InterruptedException ie) {
                         System.out.println(ie.toString());
          Thread t = new Thread(r);
          t.setDaemon(false);
          t.start();
          while(t.isAlive()) {
               int i = 1;
          t.stop();
          t.destroy();
}No idea if I am on the right track or not? Another friend told me something about swing helpers but couldn't tell me much more?
Thanks in advance!

I use media tracker when I need information about how percent the image is loaded. you can use JLabel to load the images since it has own image observer in it.
hope you just want to deal with it. easiest way I can offer :)

Problem loading image into texture memory

Hi there, I am currently porting our new casual PC game over to the iPad using the pfi, the game was written in Flash so the porting process isn't that hard thankfully, it's mainly just optimizing the graphics.
So far things are going smoothly, I was initially worried about graphical performance, but since we put everything into the GPU that's no longer a concern- it runs super smooth at 60fps at 1024x768, we can have a hundred large bitmaps rotating and alphaing at once with no slowdown.
However there is one weird problem which is really worrying me at this point- it seems that the speed at which images are loaded into video memory as textures is vastly different depending on what else is being run on the iPad, for example:
* If I run my game with nothing else in memory, it will run fine at 60fps, and load up large images into texture memory very fast.
* If I run another App, in this case a Virtual piano app for a while, then close that App via the Home button (so the piano app is still in memory but suspended due to the multitasking), then when I run my game, it will run ok initially, but when I try to load a large (1024x512) image into texture memory it pauses the whole game for several seconds.
* To make matters worse, if I repeat the same test using the RAGE app from ID software (which is very graphically intense), my game actually slows down to 1 fps and runs extremely slowly as soon as I run it and the frame rate never returns to normal. If I then double-click the home button, shut down RAGE, then go back to my game, it will run fine.
I have read that sometimes when you load images into texture memory it will have to reclaim that memory from other apps, but that doesnt exaplain why it slows down every time I want to load something, or why the game would slow right down to a crawl.
So then it seems that having other Apps in memory is slowing down my game, or stopping it from working altogether. Obviously this is not ideal and would stop us from releasing, so is there any way I can stop this, has anyone come across the problem? Please help!
PS. this problem also happens on an iPhone 4, as I have performed the same tests.

Hi _mz84
First thing I noticed, is that you did not close your
<embed> tag
<embed src="gallery1.swf" bgcolor="#421628" width="385"
height="611" wmode="transparent" />
If that doesn't solve your troubles, try the following
container.
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="611"
width="385" align="middle" data="gallery1.swf">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
<param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
<param name="movie" value="gallery1.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noscale" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#421628" />
</object>
hope this helps out.
