Lightroom Flash Gallery in Flash Site

I am working on a Photography Studio's website and was wondering if lightroom would be able to produce flash galleries that just show the image. I am wanting to load the .swf file for the gallery dynamically through the original flash site, wanting an outcome similar to http://ourlaboroflove.com
Also, I am wanting the images to be loaded dynamically in the flash file because the images will be rather large and I would like to save as much initial load time as possible. Thanks for the help.

Sean, thanks for the help, but I am still experiencing problems seeing my images using flash pages via lightroom 2. My hosting company say that it is a scripting error with lightroom, indeed this is their most recent response -
'Upon visiting tedfoxjoyce.co.uk, I can see there is a problem with your scripts which mean the images don't load, this is not a server side error. Please contact your developers or the software developers for advice.'
Any other advice you could offer would be again much appreciated, Ted

Removing Flash Gallery From Web Site

I recently created and uploaded an LR flash gallery to my web site. Although I previewed it, once it was up I noticed something I didn't like and wanted to remove the whole gallery. When I go to the site I see my original file is gone and the gallery has been split into little component files, flash, pictures, etc.
Is there a simple method to remove the gallery or do I have to do it piece by piece?

IT should all be in its own subfolder (best way). then all you have to do is delete that whole folder.

Lightroom web gallery in Flash CS5.5

I am building a photography portfolio website. I have pretty much all content built and finished in a FLA. My last hurdle is also the most important part: the photo gallery. I use adobe lightroom, and want to use the web module to create that gallery. Then I want to insert it into my flash website, and have that gallery open when the user clicks a button.
The galleries on lightroom use xml and javascript, which I don't really understand. At any rate I don't think I can insert just the gallery's SWF file because it uses these external codes to load the photos and what not. What do I have to do in order to post this in my current flash file and have it load everything ok?

no, max stage width is 2880 and max stage height is 2880.
those are just the stage dimensions though. unless you're viewing on a monitor larger than 2880x2880, there's not benefit to using a larger stage size. you can display much larger objects using scrolling within flash.
p.s. please mark helpful/correct responses, if there are any.

How do I insert Flash Gallery into Flash page?

Hi, I've created my own web page in Flash (Dreamweaver front) with Flash elements in a separate swf file. I want to create a gallery only on the front page of my site but I'm not sure if I can create new and insert on the page, or if need to create a new swf file on the timeline - not sure how to do this and not mess up my site? Any help?

Create an empty movieclip symbol in the main file and palce it on the stage exactly where you want the top left corner of the gallery to be. Assign an instance name to that movieclip.
Then use the loadMovie or MovieClipLoader.loadClip functions to load the swf file into that movieclip. If you need to somehow control the gallery via the main file, then you would be better off using the loadClip approach because it supports having an event listener to be bale to tell when the file is loaded.
You should be able to find an example in the Help documentation of using the loadMovie function for loading it into the empty movieclip I said to add earlier.
If your gallery uses _root references in its code, you will probably have to add " this.lockRoot = true; " to the main timeline of the gallery file. Otherwise, those references will be targeting the main file it is loading into.

Modifying Lightroom Flash Gallery Templates

I have created a Photo Gallery using Lightroom Flash Gallery in Bridge CS5 and have integrated it into a web site so far so good.
I would like to replace the file name shown under the image with the Image Title from the Metadata and not to show the Title Bar.
Does anyone know if other Templates are available that may do this?
Otherwise is it possible to make changes to the existing templates?
I have located the existing templates in the resources folder but have not figured out how to make the changes I want.
Advice and guidance welcomed.
Thanks
Derek

I have answered my own question, simple when you find where in the code it is done.

Embedding Adobe Lightroom 3 Flash Gallery into Website

Exporting Photo Gallery from LR3 into DWcs5 via Insert>Media>SWF, it imports but is stuck loading. Help?
This is what it's stuck as: http://voirlamour.com/weddings.html

Help?

The template that I'm using is a user created one, but basically the Pure White, but shut off rows and columns and turn all the font and everything but the photo borders and the button directions to white. You shouljd end up with nothing but the picture with a border and the buttons below it. Again, it was a lightroom flash gallery. If you look on the website now, I substituted a simpleviewer gallery, so don't use that as a reference anymore. =P What it basically showed up as was the spinning loading circle, but it worked in lightroom fine. Although! It did Not work in Lightroom's Preview in browser. The page opened and remained blank without the loading symbol.
Identity Plate: Off
Picture size: X-L (tried with all sizes, really)
Quality: 80% (have increased and decreased)
Sharpening: Standard (tried low already)
Watermarking: Off
There are 9 images 800px at max point apiece. I'm exporting, not uploading it, to my site root folder in DW for the main page. Then insert>media>swf so on and so forth. =]

Lightroom flash gallery

I am trying to show images via lightroom flash gallery. When I view my site in a browser all ok, the slide show plays no problem. However when I make my site live I can see the page layout but the images do not load, a sign loading appears but continues forever. Can anyone help, cheers, Ted.

Exporting the Lightroom Web Flash Gallery

I have a website that includes an HTML slideshow. I would like to update the HTML slideshow to a web Flash slideshow through the Lightroom 3 web Flash gallery module. So far as I can tell, however, one can export the Lightroom Flash module only as a standalone generic webpage (index.html). What I would prefer to do is (1) extract the Flash module from the generic webpage and add it to one of my own webpages, or (2) redesign the generic webpage to make it one of my own webpages. To date, I have been unable to accomplish either in my web creation software, Dreamweaver CS5. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed? Many thanks for your help.

Consider using an iFrame to include the gallery in the page. It's much easier than getting all the right bits in the right places to make it work.

Adding Music to Lightroom Flash Gallery

I would like to be able to add music.fla or music.swf files created in flash 8 to a published Lightroom Flash Gallery. Upon examination of the of the gallery.swf and the Index.html files I don't see where I can insert or embed the music files. Has anyone explored this possibility?
George

Don't know if this helps you at all. It's not LR of course.....
In CS2 Adobe added two Flash-based templates you can use for your online Web Photo Gallery. Even cooler is the fact that you can now add a background music track to one of these Flash galleries. Just follow these steps: First find the MP3 audio track you want to use as your background music and rename the file as "useraudio.mp3". Then open your Photoshop CS2 application folder and navigate to Presets>Web Photo Gallery. Inside that folder look for either Flash Gallery 1 or Flash Gallery 2. Depending on which gallery you chose within Photoshop, drag-and-drop your audio file into the corresponding folder. That's it! You've got background music.

Embedding Adobe Lightroom 3 flash gallery iweb 09

First things first...
I'm a non .MAC user, currently hosting with Host Gator.
Need exact step by step for getting my flash gallery to work on a particular iweb page. I created a folder called "flash" in my hosts servers root directory, then published the gallery out of Lightroom 3) to my host server, as mentioned above. The flash gallery files are now inside the flash folder.
I have applied the HTML widget on the page I wish to display the gallery using this code...
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase=" http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0, 0" width="550" height="400" align="middle"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.yoursite.com/flash/myflashfile.swf"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" width="550" height="400" align="middle" src="http://www.yoursite.com/flash/myflashfile.swf" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object>
I am unable to wrap my head around this stuff. I followed this tip http://iwebunlimited.com/iweb-tips/tip-1-flash-in-iweb/
So lost!
Please let me know if any further details are required from this end.
Thanks

I think I see your problem.
Your file is not a stand alone swf file.
Lightroom creates a folder containing an index.html file and two sub folders.
What you actually need to do is address the index.html file.
You could either create a link to that file and have it open a new page or use the folling code to produce an "Iframe" and load the page into the iframe.
Below is the code. The link is to a lightroom folder I created as a sample.
Change that to the proper address and it should work. If you apply it in Iweb you should see the result without having to publish.
I played around with the width and height size to try to get an appropriate size.
Change them if needed.
If that's too small the link solution is the only other option I'm aware of.
Hope the helps.
Good Luck

Integrating Lightroom Flash Gallery with Dreamweaver CS3

I have been unsuccessfully attempting to edit the gallery files created by Lightroom from within Dreamweaver. The index.html file comes up with this message when opened:
Sorry, this photo gallery requires that scripting be enabled on your web browser and that the Macromedia Flash Player be installed. Download the Macromedia Flash Player
However, I have the player installed...
I have tried uploading the files directly to my server from Lightroom but they do not display. The loading icon whirls endlessly and never resolves.
Does anyone have any advice.
Thanks in advance.

You can't edit a flash gallery with Dreamweaver.
To make changes to the LR flash gallery you would require a copy of the original fla file and a copy of Flash to edit it.
The index file you see is the one that loads the flash player to play your gallery. The message is what is seen in a browser that doesn't have flash player installed.
You can make amendments to the gallery itself by changing the xml files, although the changes you can make here can also be made in LR itself so why bother?
You can embed the gallery itself in your own html page. Using insert, media and then finding the gallery.swf file. As long as you then upload everything in the correct locations (including the scrippt files abd the new html file in the same folder structure it will work.
There are other flash galleries that are far easier to embed available. However in order to make serious changes to flash galleries of any type you will require the original fla file and most designers are not going to give you that! Adobe does give away the fla's for the galleries that ship with PS.

Lightroom 1.0 and 1.1/Web Module/Flash gallery (default) remote viewing issue fixed.

Background: We experienced problems remotely viewing the Lightroom auto-generated Lightroom Templates/Flash gallery (default) template.
<br />On our local PC running XP SP2, the gallery works just fine. When uploaded, it doesn't work anymore when visited remotely from another PC.
<br />
<br />Fix: We found out that the top of each html file contained the code:
<br />
<br /><?xml version="1.0"?>
<br />"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<br />
<br />Those are document type declarations saying the code in the page is XML and follows the Strict XHTML guidelines as defined by w3.org; it tells the browser how to interpret the code that follows.
<br />Our guess was the code used doesn't follow strict XHTML guidelines, and it broke the page by preventing the browser from displaying the rest of the html--perhaps a problem with our server too? Anyway, deleting this header fixed the problem.
<br />
<br />It worked for us. Dunno whether other users experienced the same problem. Anybody reported/noticed the same issue? Any feedback/suggestion/interpretation? Has this been reported to Adobe before?

Oups, the code disappeared when I posted; here it is (added extra _ after > and before < and one space in between ht tp to freeze it!):
<_?xml version="1.0"?_>
<_!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"ht tp://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"_>

Gps in web flash gallery lightroom

Actually I use the flash gallery (default) for publish, over my site, all my photos.
I have all my photos valorized with gps information and I would like to use this feature also inside the web gallery I create.
The perfect result should be that when someone click over a photo automatically the browser open a page of google map for the place valorized inside the photo.
thanks

Output Lightroom Flash Gallery for a website gallery?

LOVE Bridge's design for a photo gallery! Is there a way that I can use that flash gallery as a gallery in a web design? In otherwords, in a web design or as a link. I have a main page designed in Dreamweaver and want to use the gallery created in Bridge as a means to view my artwork. Is that possible. I see that I can publish it, but how can I use as a link. I thought this more a Bridge Forum question I hope...
MANY THANKS in advance!!

Expand Lightroom Flash Gallery customization

I am rather impressed with the image presentation of the Flash Gallery and it would greatly stream line the process of creating web galleries for me but for the limited and clumsy handling of text. There are only two lines availble below the image, title and caption, and they are too close together. I would like more customization in this area including adding a third text area. Something that could be used for adding in-depth descriptions or commentary about the image. Include some control of spacing and fonts for ALL the labels and text.
Add some additional, optional link placeholders at the top, too. Having just one is ridculous.
Under 'View' and 'About these photos'.... An entire screen is presented with a total capacity of one and one half lines of characters! Why bother?
I have looked all over for other gallery templates that would address these issues, but I haven't found one that suits. A few changes to this one and it would be perfect. How about it?
Thanks for listening
