Html link to specific photo in flash web export

I want to send someone links to specific images in my flash web export. I know I can direct them to the source image file, but I want them to see it in the flash export interface. Is there a way I can make a duplicate copy of the index.html and edit the start image and save as another name, or would I have to copy and alter the flash file?

You can't do a direct link to the image witht the built-in Flash movie. If you need to do this often, consider getting the SlideShowPro web engine and switching on "permalinks".
But to resolve your existing problem, it is fiddly. I assume you want the rest of the web gallery to work, so copy the index.html file, and then look for a folder called resources\mediaGroupData and make a copy of the file group.xml, so you have two xml files in that folder. What you would need to do is edit this "copy.xml" so it only lists your picture. Then back to your copy of index.html and replace any references to group.xml with copy.xml. I told you it was fiddly!

How do I attach an HTML Link to a photo.?

How do I attach an HTML Link to a photo.?

The <a> tag is the HTML link tag that you asked about, </a> closes the link - i.e. anything within those two tags will work as an HTML link whether it be text or an image. You want to make a photo clickable as an HTML link so you need to insert the <img> tag between the opening and closing link tags and set 'src' to the location of the image file. If this makes no sense to you it might be a good idea for you to read through this: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp

Web link for id plate for flash web galleries

I've created a number of html galleries, where you have the ability to make your id plate a link- very useful as this can link back to a main page with links to other galleries. This is pretty straightforward for HTML:
My problem, however, is that the flash galleries do not have this option for some reason! I don't see a way to make the id plate into a link for flash galleries under the web export...
I don't even mind going back after exporting to my local computer and adding in a link... but I am not proficent with flash, and don't know where to add it.... the index.html that is created as the home page of the web gallery didn't include anything I could edit... I guess flash buries things a bit and its harder to edit it manually....
Any help in allowing a link to be made from the id plate for flash galleries would be greatly appreciated...
thanks,
Erik

Erik,
I have the same question/problem. I do need the second link or ability to enlarge one of the posed image. Have you found the answer?

Can't modify image dimensions in flash web export

I need some help fixing an issue that I guess isn't a bug, it's just not what I want my output to look like.
When I export the basic flash web gallery with a mixture of vertical and horizontal oriented images, the default settings render my vertical images to the same height as the horizontals, ie if a horizontal image ends up as 800x500 (width x height) the vertical ones all come out 500 high, making them a very tiny 500x300 (or whatever). As I say, this seems to be what it's supposed to do, I just don't like it! It's a pet peeve of mine that monitor aspect ratios oblige us to display portrait smaller than landscape, and I'm determined to make the most of what little space there is.
I've tried messing with the style.xml settings, the module advanced options (which are the same thing AFAICS) and trawled the net all afternoon to find a way to get vertical image height to fill the available stage area height. I have noticed that LR seems to export from the Develop module fine (in this respect) if I set the export dimensions square, so setting 800x800 forces an images longest edge to 800px, ie the same size irrespective of image orientation. But because there's no equivalent option in the Web module (just large, small, etc) this little trick isn't possible. Am I explaining this clearly enough? By my reckoning, editing the xml file is too late: the web module has already exported the vertical images with the "wrong" long-edge dimensions.
Surely there's a way to force web output to a orientation-independent common size? Or do I have to export verticals and horzontals separately? The simpleviewer engines all manage this just fine, so I'm hopeful there's a simple workaround. I still have a couple of days (and most of my hair) left before I need to upload this stuff & would sincerely appreciate some help!
Running LR 2.3 on a MacBook / 10.5.6.
Thanks for reading.
Mick.

Thanks for the reply, but I don't think this has anything to do with fixed size galleries. As I say, the fact that Simpleviewer flash output doesn't constrain the height of vertical images to that of the horizontal ones suggests that it's not even a quirk with flash engines, it's something peculiar to LR Flash Gallery code. I suspect it's something missing from the <mediaPosition> section, but I'm not sure exactly what...
The Simpleviewer gallery.xml usually gives you this sort of parameter:
maxImageWidth="800" maxImageHeight="800"
and you get vertical images scaled to the max height of the stage (even if it's never quite 800px) – that's all I'm looking to hack the LR Flash Gallery xml with. I want to know why, when I enter
height="800.00" width="800.00"
in the <mediaPosition> section of the style.xml, I end up with the height at 600 or less, regardless of stage space.
Looking at my output sizes, LR appears to generate a set height for all images, scaling the width to fit, but not the other way around. Cue exasperation.
There has to be a way to do it. Since I posted the question I've found a couple of things. First, it is possible to force a set image height, but you also need to set a fixed image position. The default xml code is usually somerhing like
<mediaPosition videoScale="upDown" positionType="auto" fitAtStart="true" height="264.00" imageScale="fitToScreen" x="0.00" y="0.00" width="360.00"/>
but if you change the positionType, imageScale and fitAtStart fields, giving the image area a fixed loaction (x and y coordinates) it's possible, with a load of messing on, to generate a slideshow which behaves the way I want, but the thumbnail view remains the same:
<mediaPosition videoScale="upDown" positionType="fixed" fitAtStart="false" height="770.00" imageScale="fixed" x="180.00" y="90.00" width="960.00"/>
This might even be ok, but it behaves differenty on different monitors due to varying aspect ratios, so it's no good. I feel like I'm 'close but no cigar' here. If anyone knows better I'd love to hear it.
I also found a LR plugin that looks like it might get close enough to the LR Flash output that I want, and as it's just $35 I might have to go for it: http://slideshowpro.net/products/slideshowpro/slideshowpro_for_lightroom
I'd still much rather stick with the original engine, if anyone can point me to a solution.
Thanks
Mick

Link to specific text from another web page

Hello all
Is is possible to link from one page to a specific piece of

text. I don't know if I am attempting the impossible. Can you help?

It depends on your settings for how you copy/paste. See your

for those. I don't get such things because my settings are
'tight' in that
they are restrictive to what stying is carried into the page.

Creating links within a photo gallery

I created a few albums and I want to know how to create links for specific photos. For example, I would like to link from one of the photos in gallery view to a larger version of that photo. I created another page with the larger photo but I cant create a "click here" link within the description. The inspector allows me to chose create hypertext link after highlighting text but it doesnt work. Also, if I create a link outside of the description the link appears on every page in that gallery. I also noticed that the link I created on the main gallery page appears on every page. Further, I would like the link to open in a new window.
Thanks for the help.

After I published the site the link I created in the photo description works in the album view but not when you're viewing the photo itself.
Any suggestions?

LR 1.1 web export color discrepancies

Okay, I have googled all over for this and have found people with the same issue, but nobody seems to have the answer. Hoping someone here has a solution to this.
What I am seeing is my colors being "enhanced", sometimes way too much when I export in either flash or HTML in the web module. I have done all kinds of tests, but I absolutely cannot find any settings for exporting in the web module. when I do an export under "file->export" and use colorspace AdobeRGB, it looks just like my Nikon RAW file. However, if I change the colorspace on export to sRGB, the color is greatly enhanced. This makes me feel as though I have no control over my images.
Take a look at the 2 following images. The first one is just a plain screenshot of the image in LR, the second image is a screenshot of the file after being viewed in the flash web export. Clearly LR is modifying the image on upload, but for the life of me I cannot find where this modification is taking place so I can try to shut it off. I would like full control of my images and just can't get it using the web export. Please help! I'm running windows XP Pro.
first image:
http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/4528/beforelilydm6.jpg
second image from flash export: (Yes I know it looks better, but I have zero control of it!)
http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/7501/afterlilykn9.jpg

In its basic form, the difference you're seeing is caused by the absence of color management in Windows browsers (with only partial support in Safari) and flash. However, I think you may also have an issue with your monitor profile.
Windows allows you to assign an ICC profile to your monitor that describes its color response (control panel -> display properties -> settings -> advanced -> color management). Lightroom uses this profile to convert the image data so that it displays correctly on your screen.
Browsers (Windows) and Flash do not do this, and send the image data directly to your screen instead. *If* your image is in sRGB *and* your monitor's response is close to the sRGB standard, things may look ok, but there are no guarantees.
However, the differences you are showing are very large, which leads me to believe that your monitor profile is describing a color space that is much larger than sRGB (the default web output). Have you assigned the Adobe RGB to your monitor, by any chance? Your monitor profile should match your monitor's actual response, so try to get one from your monitor manufacturer, or, better yet, get a hardware calibrator. If you're desperate, you can also try assigning the sRGB profile, but it's *not* a real solution [even less so for lousy laptop LCDs].

How link from html page to a specific frame in flash cs5 as3

Hi!
I'm kinda new around here. I am interested in knowing how to link from a specific html page to a specific frame in flash cs5 as3.
I have a website that I originally began to design in flash but later started developing new pages for it in html. The flash part of it has several pages on different frames and I have created links from the flash part to the other html pages, but, I can only link the html pages back to the main flash home page, and not the other pages in the flash part of the website.
I have read that in cs3 it was possible using the flashvars skip variable, but I don't know how to do it. I have not yet seen any working examples and I could not find any instructions / tutorials online for cs5.
Can someone help here?

add a query string, to the swf's embedding html, with variable/value indicating the frame you want to display in your swf. add a javascript function to return the query string (or entire url), call the javascript function from flash using the externalinterface class. and finally add code to your swf to parse the returned url or query string, parse it and then direct your timeline to the appropriate frame.

Flash-Web Photo Gallery

I am trying to create a flash web photo galler using the Automate>Web Photo Gallery in CS2.
I want to mix the features of the 2 existing options.
In Flash Gallery 1, the thumbnails are listed as small icons in multiple lines and are magnified when the mouse hovers over them, like the dock in OS X.
In Flash Gallery 2, the meta data listed in the xml file is displayed only if you explicitly click on the info button, and it is below the picture.
I need these 2 options together. The rest of the options are not a problem I can go either way.
Is there another Flash Gallery that will combine these two options?
If not:
Is there a way to modify the flash file to accomodate this?

Google "Flash Gallery Templates", you'll see 2.4M links.
Back to levonk's original question... sounds like you're trying to do what I'm trying to... alter the Flash files used to generate the Web Photo Gallery Flash Gallery 2.
Here's my question, similar to yours:
How do i open the "gallery.swf" file to alter Photoshop Flash Web Photo Gallery?
Built Web Photo Gallery in Photoshop CS2's Automate. It turned out OK, and I made adjustments in the "index.html" and "galleryconfig.xml" files in a text editor (BBE).
Now, I'd like to alter the template's .swf file but can't open it as it's "protected".
It would be nice to be able to set up a new template that does exactly what I intend, without altering the other files. But I can't open the protected "gallery.swf" file to make changes. Can someone help? Does Adobe have an unprotected copy of that file I can fiddle with? Is there some "trick" to open a copy of that file? I could learn a lot and make it easy to repeat results for a site. Any assistance most appreciated!

Flash hijacking HTML links while images are loading

I've designed a slide show player using Flash and Actionscript 3.0 which loads several external images. While the images are loading, the HTML links on my page (outside of the Flash movie) don't work. As soon as all the images are loaded, the links start working again. It seems like the Flash player is hijacking the browser while the images are loading which can take the better part of a minute depending on my connection speed. I can click an HTML link once during the loading time and as soon as the images have loaded, the browser loads the new page (the one the HTML links to). Once all the images are in my Temporary Internet Files folder, this problem ceases to exist (since the images no longer need to be downloaded). It's only first-time viewers that will have this problem, but it's a pretty major problem.
To see what I'm talking about, go to:
http://www.ericlindberg.com/indexTemp.html
Click the Images button after the "Loading..." animation disappears but before all the images are loaded. As the images load the thumbnails at the bottom of the Flash player go from 50% to 100% opaque. If you click the "Images" button before all the thumbnails are 100% opaque, nothing happens. However, once they are all loaded and the thumbnails are all 100% opaque, the "Images" page loads. You can do the same thing with any of the subpages in the Images section of the site and get the same results.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Joe

I have something similar on my site.

You might try using CSS rollovers instead of MM (javascript) rollovers. Straight HTML links load fast and work immediately.

Adobe web photo gallery - flash gallery 2

I'm using the adobe web photo gallery, flash gallery 2 and I
want to slow down the time it takes for each photo to fade in. I'm
referring to the part that after the image preloader is done and
when the image is transitioning from white into the full image.
I've gone through the code but to no avail. Can someone help me
with this? Thanks!

Most CS3 Web Photo Gallery Templates are flash free. They use straight HTML. Even the ones the change images automatically just use HTML to refresh the page displayed and change the page to the next image. The Photoshop Web Gallery Template can be edited and customized to better suit your needs. Adobe has removed Photoshop's Photo Web Galleries from newer version of Photoshop however the Feature can be installed into the newer Photoshop versions. Adobe added an output module to the Bridge that can create Web Photo Galleries these are mostly Flash based and not easily customized like Photoshop's old Web Photo Gallery templates.
IMO there is nothing wrong with Flash Web Galleries other then mobile tablets and phone do not have flash support. I have yet to see any HTML 5 web gallery with features that match Flash Galleries. I'm not a fan of Flash web sites or Flash games. However there are many Flash web photo galleries that perform well and have great features. I do not particularly want to display my images on small web phones. If you want to see them on a tablet get a windows 8 pro tablet they should have flash support. I put large images in Web Photo galleries fitted for 1600x1200 displays and count on flash to resize them for the users browsers window.
Here is an example of a Flash web photo gallery. It contains 8 or 9 albums some with additional feature enabled. All generated in Photoshop with a custom script. http://www.mouseprints.net/albums/
Resize your browser window see the image sizes change use the menu in the bottom of the browsers window to change album and try full screen support. I only use Flash for Web Photo Galleries. I'm not selling so I do not need IOS and Android support.

Flash Web Gallery large photo border erratic behavior

In Lightroom HTML Web Gallery one can define border styles for the displayed photos. I cannot find a similar future in the Flash Gallery however. Is there one??? In any case, the first 6 photos in my Flash Web Gallery appear with a black border around the main large displayed photos. The subsequent photos do not have any border. In either case, it would be nice to have the border appearance consistent and preferably user definable.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi John,
Thanks for that. A bit more digging - preview in browser is fine and export to harddrive then runs in browser OK. I tried HTML gallery and got the same error (No 2 says a file was truncated) so I chucked it all at another server and it seems to be OK. Looks like an ISP problem.
Those unconnected problems were:
Despite repairs I still can't burn to CD, it still says it's been disabled. I don't miss the feature but I like to think my installation is fully functional.
I still seem to have a memory leak in that if I crop,edit and export 46 images as jpg it falls over, very politely - sorry for the inconvenience etc but this is repeatable, yesterday it crashed at 46 and 92 images. I wonder if my 2.3 install was OK and this was behind the second part of my question.

Auto fill subject with an Email link in CS4 Bridge flash web gallery

Is there a way to autofill the subject line of the email link in the CS4 Bridge flab web galleries? I can do it if I use the html gallery, but I prefer the look of the flash galleries.
If I open the "group.xml" file I see code for me email link, exp.: <contactEmail>maillto:[email protected]</contactEmail>
I tried adding the "?subject=My Subject" like I would on an html file but that didn't work. I was hoping for some suggestions.
Thanks!

I want it to work on the click of a mouse: when I run or test the page the email comes up immediately. Here is what I have so far:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:mailto:[email protected]?subject=yoursubject&body=your message"));
/* Mouse Click Event
Clicking on the specified symbol instance executes a function in which you can add your own custom code.
Instructions:
1. Add your custom code on a new line after the line that says "// Start your custom code" below.
The code will execute when the symbol instance is clicked.
button_3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler_6);
function fl_MouseClickHandler_6(event:MouseEvent):void
     // Start your custom code
     // This example code displays the words "Mouse clicked" in the Output panel.
     trace("Mouse clicked");
     // End your custom code
So how do I get the email to open ONLY when the mouse clicks on the link??

What do you mean about opening a flash file? Do you want the
.fla file
to open in flash? Or is it a swf that you imported into
Director? Or
is it an exe that was published from flash? Or a website that
was
created with Flash?
If you are opening a .exe and you know the path to it, then
you can use
Director's built-in open command
open the moviePath&"flashFile.exe"
for most other things, I would use BuddyAPI. To open an exe,
baRunProgram(). To open a fla or swf, baOpenFile.
To make Director open a swf on the stage, import it and
simply tell the
button to go to that frame.

Target Flash Movieclip from HTML Link - Feasible?

Is it possible to target a specific movieclip within an swf
that's embedded on an external html page using an HTML link? Or is
this a stretch? It seems like this would be feasible but I've hit a

No. Google search for FLV grabbers.
