Need a clear tutorial on looping backgrounds

Can anyone please suggest a clear explanation or tutorial on
how to create a looping background with layers moving at different
speeds?
Mine keep producing a jump when I try to make them.
Thanks for any advice.

there is no magic to it, if you see jump, it means the loop
end in wrong place.
You must simply position the image in such order to prevent
visible jump.
There tutorial will only apply to the image within tutorial
itself, the rest
you must make on eye or using action script.
Just search the forum or google for "flash endless loop", we
did that gazillions
of times in a past....

  • Creating a looping background for simple game

    hello
    I have been trying to create a simple looping background of a
    road - so a car will be placed on top and give the ilusion it is
    moving on it...
    The problem is: I was able to follow the instructions from
    http://www.jimmcneill.com/loopdemo2.html
    and it works fine, however, it only works as seen on the link if I
    publish to HTML... but I need to do the same and publish in
    Flash...
    What am I missing ?
    I am quite new to Flash, so I apologize if the question is
    silly...
    I have been struggling to make it work for a few days now and
    don't seem to find useful info on this problem anywhere...
    Any help is REALLY appreciated !
    Ariane

    yes, if I follow the instructions on the site I mentioned and
    then go to File > publish preview > html, it works as shown
    in the website...
    however, if i go to file > publish preview > flash, it
    does not...
    the animation is choppy and not continuous..
    does it make sense ?
    i was hoping it was just a matter of changing a setting...
    I also found another tutorial -
    http://www.actionscript.org/resources/articles/21/1/Continuously-Looping-Background/Page1. html
    but I think the version is different - the Goto Play is not
    the same in MX2004 ?
    Thanks much for your help !

  • Need to Clear table every 2 months....Urgent plsss

    I need to clear a table every 2 months in a report program. Can anyone tell me how i can do this ???

    Hi,
                     You can do it programatically.
    first store the range of month in internal table. e.g in ur case the months are 04 to 08.
    In ur print subroutine for header.
    write this code.
    loop at itab.
    case sy-tabix.
    when 1.
    write: 10 itab-month.
    when 2.
    write: 20 itab-month.
    when 3.
    write: 30 itab-month.
    when 4.
    write: 40 itab-month.
    when 5.
    write: 50 itab-month.
    endcase.
    endloop.
    this will display months in column.
    Now you 've to display the required data for these months.
    e.g ur main itab in which all the data is populated is itab_main.
    loop at itab_main.
    loop at itab. " months itab
    case sy-tabix.
    when 1.
    write: 10 itab_main-value.
    when 2.
    write: 20 itab_main-value.
    when 3.
    write: 30 itab_main-value.
    when 4.
    write: 40 itab_main-value.
    when 5.
    write: 50 itab_main-value.
    endcase.
    endloop.
    endloop.
    This will display your output in columns for months.
    Solution 2.
    if u want to display ur month outpur in a new row.
    U can use event.
    at new month.
    sort ur table by year month first.
    hope it work.
    Regards

  • Bought a looping background and trying to add my own flash on top.

    Trying to design a church flash animation, and so far.. cussing ( shh dont tell ) isn't getting it done.  I have tried different layers, etc... same layer... I only know enough flash to get myself into trouble and have no flash capable friends. (( I need some! ))
    I bought a looping background and am wanting to create my own flash on  top of it.  I have tried separate layers, same layer etc... It shows when I move the playhead and when I click play.. but when I test the movie, only the background and the music shows.. can anyone explain what Im doing wrong?

  • I need to clear space on my mac and have 2 other devices I need space on- IpHone and Ipad.  I have Itunes match.  If I delete the library from my computer, how can I play music from the cloud on all devices.  S

    I am almost out of space on my mac and Ipad.  Need to clear songs off, but afraid I won't be able to listen without going to my external hard drive.  I have Itunes match but don't know how they are accessed from the cloud.  Thoroughly confused and frustrated.  Hope someone can help.
    Another question is my Iphotos are taking up tons of space and I don't know if they are in cloud or best way to back up.  Any thoughts?

    If you have iTunes Match, and your music is in your Match library, you can access it from iCloud on all your devices, provided they are signed into your iTunes Match account.  Make sure you keep a backup of your music somewhere though as the match process isnt' perfect and you may find that some of your iTunes Match music isn't exactly the same as the original (see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112).
    The best way to back up your photos is to import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  If you are out of room on your Mac, get an inexpensive external drive to save your photos on.

    No you don't.
    Mac's auto-defragment by writing 2GB+ sized files and smaller to one space on the drive, so you really don't need to worry about it.
    If your going to parititon your drive or need a large space of free space, then Carbon Copy Cloning the entire OS x parittion to a external drive, option booting off of it and then erasing and reverse cloning is the approved  method of defragmenting and freeing up disk space, rahter than using defragmentaiton software that can cause issues and make the machine inoperatible.

    If you need steps to *cough* clean your Mac of caches and whatnot less your kid/wife/mother/girlfriend/boss, see's it then the steps are as follows.
    1: Clean/clear your browser caches first, delete your history etc. from within the program itself, delete any files on the machine by dragging to Trash and emtpy Trash (secure erase not needed if you follow the steps later)
    2: Download CCleaner for the Mac and run that
    3: Download OnyX for the Mac and run all the cleaning and maintainece, reboot at the end.
    4: For scrubbing hard drives of traces (deleted files), use Apple's Disk Utility > Erase Free Space option: Zero (or 7x if you need military/foresic level type deletion, but it takes overnight to complete)
    Make sure your browser plug-ins are current, Flash, Silverlight especially.
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    And your Mac needs more codecs, search for Perian, VLC and Flip4Mac, install those.

  • I just bought a new mac and need to clear the memory of my old one but i don't have a startup disk.  how do i do this?

    I just bought a new mac book pro and need to clear my old mac of it's contents to give it away---  I do not have my startup disk anymore.  How can i completely delete my old mac's memory?

    Erasing your drive:
    Dragging the files to the Trash removes the references to them from the Directory. As has always been the tradition, the data blocks that held the actual data are not over-written, they are merely added to the free list for later re-use. Their original contents are still present.
    Disk Utility "Erase" or "Partition" of a drive (which finishes in under a minute) also does not over-write the data blocks, but merely creates a new, empty directory.
    To clear the data that may still be present (admittedly in a disorganized mess of unlinked blocks) you need to overwrite the data. Use the erase tab, then choose "Security Erase" Options, and overwrite once with Zeroes. This process can take several hours as it is -- if you insist on multiple passes, it can take days to complete, with little additional protection. Multiple passes is unnecessary unless your drive held Military Secrets.
    When you have erased, be sure to install some version of Mac OS X -- a Mac with no obvious Operating software may be dead, and  is much more likely to quickly become landfill.

  • G'day.  I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space.  How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?

    G'day.  I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space.  How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?

    The slightly bigger question is whether you want to move all movie content to the external drive (essentially meaning that drive will always need to be attached when you're working with your videos), or whether you just want to archive older videos off to the external drive.
    If you want to move all videos, then just move the 'Movies' folder in your home directory to the external drive, then create an alias of the external 'Movies' back in to your home directory. Now the 'Movies' icon in your home directory will point to the external drive and everything will just work (as long as the external drive is attached when you launch iMovie)
    If you want to archive older movies then each Movie should have its own subdirectory within your Movies folder. These can easily be moved off to the external drive, and moved back should you ever need to work on those movies again.

  • Need help with a For loop that uses a Break statement

    I need to create a for loop which counts down from 100-50 and divides the number being counted down by a counter. Can anyone help me?
    public class Break
    public static void main ( String args []) (;
         int total = 0
         int counter = 0
         for { (int number = 100; total >=50; total --)
         if (counter == 0)
         break;

         int output = number/counter
         system.out.printf("The number is" %d output/n)

    }// end of class Break

          int count; // control variable also used after loop terminates
         for (int i = 100; i >= 50; i = ++count)
       if (i >= 50) {
        continue;
          System.out.printf( "\nBroke out of loop at count = %d\n", count );
       } // end main
    } // end class BreakTest

  • Looping Background Movie Clip

    Hi i am having trouble with having a looping background movie
    clip on the bottom layer of my flash project. I have it on the
    bottom layer in the first frame, above it i have some menus fading
    in and it seems as though once it gets to this scene, it just plays
    the movie clip over and over and never goes to the 2nd frame of my
    scene. Is there anyway to have a looping background movie clip
    inside of flash 8?
    Thank you in advance,
    Tyler

    You can use a variable to keep count of how many times you loop, and until it exceeds a particulr value (2 or 3) you execute a setTimeout() call that waits for however long you want to delay and then tells the movieclip to gotoAndPlay(1).
    So in the first frame you would establish the counting variable...
    var count;
    if(count == undefined){ // only set it to 0 once
    count = 0;
    and in the last frame you would do your incrementing and control....
    stop();
    count += 1;
    if(count < 3){
    setTimeout(waitABit, 2000); // call function in 2 secs
    function waitABit(){
    gotoAndPlay(1);

  • Need a clear answer on how to enforce Standard CALs usage.

    I found a few related threads and Blog post but no clear answer.
    Most of my users will have a standard CAL and I need to lock them down so they can only use those features.
    I need a clear and concise way to do this and it looks like MS is unwilling to provide the answer.
    Most of the information that I have found covers Lync 2010 and not 2013.
    Here is the test policy I created but the CAL comparison charts I have seen it clearly state that PC to PC voice and video are allowed in the standard CAL. This policy as recommended by a MS rep disables that.
    This is very confusing and in desperate need of Clarity.
    Identity                                  : Tag:Test-StandardCal
    AllowIPAudio                              : False
    AllowIPVideo                              : False
    AllowMultiView                            : True
    Description                               :
    AllowParticipantControl                   : True

    AllowAnonymousParticipantsInMeetings      : True

    EnableP2PRecording                        : False
    EnableFileTransfer                        : True
    EnableP2PFileTransfer                     : True
    EnableP2PVideo                            : True
    AllowLargeMeetings                        : False
    EnableOnlineMeetingPromptForLyncResources : False
    EnableDataCollaboration                   : True
    MaxVideoConferenceResolution              : VGA
    MaxMeetingSize                            : 250
    AudioBitRateKb                            : 200
    VideoBitRateKb                            : 50000
    AppSharingBitRateKb                       : 50000
    FileTransferBitRateKb                     : 50000
    TotalReceiveVideoBitRateKb                : 50000
    EnableMultiViewJoin                       : True

    PC-to-PC computer audio/video call is allowed when you enable Lync users.
    They are not controlled by controlled by conferencing policy.
    And there is no policy to restrict these basic features.
    The parameter AllowIPAudio and AllowIPVideo indicate whether a meeting can have audio and video.
    Peer-to-peer audio and video call are not the same with the audio/video in a meeting.

  • Need to clear SAP memory

    Hi Experts,
    I need to Clear SAP memory set using the 'Parameter ID' keyword in reports. Please advise.
    Thanks in advance,

    Sure, you can simply set the parameter id to a blank field.  For example.
    data: vbeln type vbak-vbeln.
    vbeln = space.
    set parameter id 'AUN' field vbeln.
