Advanced Photo Album Template Issue
Hey all. I tried to create a photo album using the Advanced Photo Album Template that comes in Flash CS5. Everything seems to work fine - however, when you click on the thumbnails on the left hand side, the titles do not change to the appropriate thumbnail. The title simply remains the same for any thumbnail image, until you click the play or forward/backward buttons. The titles change fine when I hit the play button or scroll through with the forward or backward buttons, but not when you click on the individual thumbnails. Any idea how to change this so it functions correctly? Thanks everyone.
Code for updating the title is missing. Add following line of code inside function fl_tileClickHandler()
title_txt.text = imageDP.getItemAt(currentImageID).label;

Adobe Flash Professional CS5, advanced photo album template
Hi there,
Hope someone can help me with this easy question.
When I use the test movie function working with the advanced photo album template my photos can not be found. I get the error message "Error #2044: Ej hanterad ioError:. text=Error #2035: URL:enhittades inte. URL: file:"
I've checked the spelling of the filenames, I use for the photos: image1.jpg, image2.jpg etc. so the filenames should be correct.
Also all the files are in the same folder, both the fla-files and the image files.
I'm using a 64 bit Windows 7 operating system, but except for this snag the program seems to be working perfectly ok..
Getting weary of all the time consuming problems.
Hoping someone can straighten this one out for me.

CS5 Advanced Photo Album Template Upload Issue
I just created a new flash ap from the template Advanced Photo Album (File->new->Templates->Media Playback->Advanced Photo Album)
I set everything up put my photos where they needed to be and coded the xml section of the action script. I tested it and it runs perfectly on my system. However as soon as I upload it to my server I get the flash app to load but no images appear. Its as if it can't find the xml file however its hardcoded into the flash app. How can I fix this?
Help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Stjc
Ps all images are in the same directory as the swf and index.html files just as they were on my local machine

I would just like to make each image a "clickable" link. I got 4 images that I want to take users to 4 separate webpages, I've searched and searched for answers but most are over my head. Is there anybody that could help me? Here's the actions:

playPauseToggle_mc.gotoAndStop("pause");Without writing the code for you, the general idea is knowing what the image number is. That seems to be your issue. Your click events need to be able to extract the name of the image that was clicked (who's instance name can have that number in it). Based on that number you can determine what to do.
Any MouseEvent.CLICK function handlers will give you the name (if you set it) of what was clicked.
e.g.
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var a:Sprite = new Sprite();
a.beginFill(0xFF0000,1);
a.graphics.drawRect(0,0,100,100); // draw red rectangle
a.graphics.endFill();
addChild(a);
// give it a name
a.name = "a_1";
a.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleClick);
// Now on a click, extract the name and use it:
function handleClick(e:MouseEvent):void
// what button was clicked?
trace(e.target.name);
// get the number
var num:int = int(e.target.name.toString().split('_')[1]);
trace("Button #" + num + " clicked");
// do something based on the number
if (num == 1)
// do something based on button 1
else if (num == 2)
// do something based on button 2
// etc... -
Advanced Photo Album SWF Movies Playback

Wanted to Edit "Create Web Photo Album" template
I'm using MX2004.
I've recently done a major, major overhaul on a website I
manage. We use the "Create Web Photo Album" (not an extension - the
one that came with DW) extensively, but with the new design, the
basic photo album template isn't going to cut it. I could probably
sit with it myself and drop created photo albums into a template
page and make it work, but I'm not the only one doing photo albums
and some of the other people aren't the most... technically
competent.
What I'd like to do is somehow edit the template that
Dreamweaver uses to create the photo album so that it looks like
how we're wanting without any post-album-created-action.
Is this possible? Is there an extension that'll work for this
as well? (Looks like the Exchange is currently down, so that isn't
helping me in my search.)Get the free extension "Create Web Photo Album 2" from Adobe.
It has many
pre made templates plus instructions on how to create your
own.

Can I adjust size of the photos on front page of the photo album template?
When I am working on a Photo Album page, how can I make the "front page" photos larger? I am talking about the photos arranged in rows, not the photos that show in the slide show carousel. Is it a set size in the Photo Album template or is it a consequence of how large a photo I set into the page?
Also, how is "large" defined? Is it about inches, or is it about resolution?
— Lorna in Southern CaliforniaI found the large too large and the small too large.
How large do you want them Lorna?
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Michael, where did you go to check to see that the large was indeed too large and the small too large? What method of adjusting the size are you using?
If you want them really large, why don't you just
plonk the real photo on the page sized as large as
you wish, and you can always link it to its own page
with an even larger version!!
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Michael, actually I misstated in my first post. Actually I would not like the photos in the Photo page to be too large, because then no one will be motivated to click onto the See Slideshow button.
My mind is getting so crammed with input and other people's websites that I now cannot even recall with certainty which pictures I wanted larger. 8-( Oh, this is giving me a cramped-in-the-chest feeling. I had best take a break now and finally eat a legitimate meal.

How to mod Photo Album Template
Web Photo Album – Part 3: How to Modify a Web Photo
Album Template - is a great tutorial for DW MX, but is there a
similar one for DW8? The template's and directory structure
outlined in this rather old tutorial, is no longer the same in DW8.
Since it is impossible to apply a template to a group of pages,
being able to customize this "create photo album" extension would
be great....thanksYou can select any object on one page and copy and paste it to another. You can also select a group of objects (like several images or text boxes) and copy and paste them over. Then you can move thess objects around and reposition them on the photo page.

hi
i have created the album successfully with my pictures, but i would like to know how to remove the autostart from the code. i want to do this becasue i am putting it on the website with a couple other albums and they all start to play at once. please let me know how to remove autostart from the code.
thanksWhat are they? Are these albums individual .swf files that are imported, are they movie clips in the Library or are they actionscript classes? How are they added to the timeline or the display list?
-
Occasionally my album list scrolls up beneath the "Albums" title. It eventually corrects or I need to power cycle to get it uncovered. Any simple change to fix this?
Your fix ( or a reset) is the only one I have seen discussed in this forum for the problem.

Forward button bypasses delay in photo album
I am a novice with Flash Pro but took on the challenge of creating a slideshow for a website. I used Flash Pro CS5 and the Advanced Photo Album template. I fought it out for a while and searched around for information before eventually getting it to load the images and work as coded.
All went well and I published the .SWF and all the images to the site's root folder but whenever I click the 'forward' button it skips an image. The delay is set to 5 seconds but it would appear that the forward button bypasses the delay i.e. if I leave an image up for 3 seconds and then press the forward button, the next image will only display for 2 seconds before siwtching to the following one, despite the delay being set to 5. If I let it run automatically all the images follow the delay rule. I have included the code below. The only thing I have altered is the duration of the 'fade' transition from 0.25 to 1.
Note: I have had to embed the HTML not the .SWF as when embedding the .SWF on the site it brought up the flash element but none of the images. Not sure if this is having an effect on the coding.
Many thanks for any assistance

Simple Photo Album "previous" button issue
Hello! I have created a slide show using the Simple Photo Album template in Flash. All works fine except for when I click the "previous" button to view the previous slide. When I click it, the movie skips back 3 slides instead of just one. How can I fix this?
Thanks!

The actionscript that came with the template is below (in blue), but if I set var autoStart:Boolean = true; I get the following error and the controls do not work:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this so that the slideshow starts automatically and stops when the pause button is clicked?
Thanks,
LisaI finally got it to work, but had to edit the action script because it seemed to have a logic error. Here is the action script I finally used; maybe this will help you:

So I have an issue. All the .gif files I have on my computer that I upload to my phone via iTunes (syncing photo albums) are magically converted to .jpg files. This is incredibly annoying because I want them to be animated when I email or text them. Is there a way to fix his, or perhaps use an SSH program to manually create photo albums on the iPhone?
Thanks in advance
~NateRight... But I definitely dont want to do that for 90+ images.
Besides I dont want them in the normal camera roll. I want them in a separate album
