Need help Loading images with selection on a form field?

So I'm kind of a newb.. I can do basic forms but I need to set up a form field drop down box that will give me the ability to load images correlating to the users choice. I'm at a total loss for where to start, so ANY help would be appreciated. If you know of any good books or tutorials on the subject please share.
Thanks in advance
Sincerely,
Stumped4now

P.S. I think I'm getting a better understanding of OCGs after lots of research today. However I still seem to be missing something
var docOCGs = this.getOCGs();
for (var x=0; x < docOCGs.length; x++)
if(docOCGs[x].name == "Layer1")
docOCGs[x].state = !docOCGs[x].state;

[noob needs help] Loading image from a URL

Hey everyone. I'm new here. And I'm new at J2ME as well.
I have a simple school project and I have doubts about it. I've searched everywhere on the net yet I could not find the solution. Anyways, I do understand the concept of loading images by putting the files in the "res" folder and use:
try
img = Image.createImage("/burgerimgsmall.jpg");
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
But my project requires me to load an image from a URL. How do I go about doing that? If it helps, here's the URL:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/punkgila/burgerimgsmall.jpg
Thanks guys!

Don't worry, downloading image from http is also simple. Look into Photoalbum demo in wtk2.5

Need help displaying images with List component for Flash CS4 (ActionScript 3.0)

Hi folks:
I am an inexperienced user of Flash CS4 Pro (v10.0.2). I am attempting to use the List component with ActionScript 3.0 to make a different image display when a user clicks each item in a list.
I did find a tutorial that showed me how to make different text display using a dynamic text box and the following ActionScript:
MyList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, ShowSelectedItem);
function ShowSelectedItem(event:Event):void {
ListText.text=MyList.selectedItem.data;
...where My List is the instance of the List component and ListText is the dynamix text box. In this case, the user clicks an item in the list, defined by the label value in the dataProvider parameter of the List component, and text displays as defined in the data value in the dataProvider parameter.
However, as I mentioned to start, what I really want to do is make images display instead of text. Can anyone provide me the steps to do this?
I appreciate your help (in advance)!!
Cindy

Hi...thanks for responding! I was planning on using images from the Library, but if there is a better way to do it, I'm open. So far, I just have text in the data property. This is part of my problem. I don't know what I need to put in the data value for an image to display. Do I just put the image file name and Flash will know to pull it from the Library? Do I need to place the images on the stage on different frames? I apologize for the "stupid user" questions, but as you can tell, I'm a newbie.
Appreciate your patience and any help you can offer!

Loading image with loadMovie

I am loading an image to a movie clip (name container) using
loadMovie but when the image loads the movie clip is resized to the
size of the loaded image, is there a way to prevent that from
happening? I want the movie clip to retain its original size.
Thank you for your help,

Loaded images or swf's only inherit position, rotation and
scale. They load
at their original size though. If you want to resize them to
fit a
particular area, you'll need to do that with AS. First you
will need to stop
using loadMovie and use the MovieClipLoader class instead.
You should be
using it anyway, it's better.
Simple example that loads an image from my C: drive into a
clip named 'hold'
var myLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var lis = new Object();
lis.onLoadInit = function(targ:MovieClip){
targ._width = 83;
targ._height = 119;
myLoader.addListener(lis);
myLoader.loadClip("c:/dm_phillips_2005.jpg", hold);

Loading images with transitions

Hi,
trying to have slideshowish thing, loading images with transitions.
I have this code for first image, what I need to load next images...?
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.events.*;
var curTween:Tween = new Tween(1_mc, "alpha", Strong.easeOut, 100, 0, 3, true);
curTween.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, fadeBackIn);
function fadeBackIn(event:TweenEvent) {
var nxtTween:Tween = new Tween(1_mc, "alpha", Strong.easeIn, 0, 100, 3, true);

i'm not sure that makes sense. you're fading out 1_mc and then fading it back in.
normally you would fade out a previous image and fade in the next image.

Loading images with different horizontal sizes

I would like to load images with different horizontal
resolutions (vertical resolution to be the same) dymanically into
an empty movie clip. I would like them to load with the right hand
side of the image lined up with the right hand side of my site. I
have seen many tutorials about how to accomplish the loading of the
movies, but I cannot figure out how to make them open with the
right hand side always lined up on the right.
To be more specific, let's say I have three images of the
varying pixel resolutions (1200x600, 800x600, and 400x600 for
example). I would like the horizontal size to always extend away
from the right hand side of the site with the right hand edge of
the images always lined up.
Is this possible to do by loading them into an empty movie
clip?
thanks

When you load an image file into an empty movieClip, that
clip takes on the dimensions of the loaded content. The
registration point for the clip is set to the upper left corner.
So, once the new image is loaded, just set that clip's .x to the
stage width - the width of the clip.

Help Needed in resolving problems with Hyperion Planning Web Forms

Hi,Can anyone help me with this problem?Problem:We are running Planning 2.3.1 I have created Webform & security(application owner has the ownership).Somehow Iam getting only 7 dimensions into webform & 1 dimension is missing in that. But whereas 8 dimensions are there in Essbase.Hsp_Rates dimension is available in essbase outline but Iam unable to see that dimension in the webform selection.And using the webform Iam unable to load any data ...the form is graded/protected.Is this happening because i dont have the requirement of 1 member from each Dimension?Please someone let me know why this is happening what might be the reason.ThanksUser

Hi,The dimension Hsp_Rates is a hide dimension used by Planning to store the exchange rates for the differentes exchanges.All the standard information is stored on HSP_InputValue member (in this dimension).When you create a web form, Planning automatically asign this member (but don't show it).Probably you can't load data because you are selected on Version dimension a Standard Botton Up version, and you only can load data on level 0 members in this type of version.If you want to load data on upper level members, then you need to create a Standard Target version (in the Version dimension) and select it in the form.Please, advice if this solve your problemClaudioBPD Solutions

Need help loading .swfs one by one, in specific order

i have been trying to figure this out for weeks now, and have
even posted on other forums about this, but nobody seems to be
willing to help me. i have a main swf, which is the basis for my
image gallery. once this page loads, a thumbnail should start
loading with a preloader displaying the precentage loaded. once the
percentage hits 100%, the image shows up, and the next thumbnail
starts, and so on. there are 15 thumbnails total that have to be
loaded. each one should load with a 10 pixel gap all around, and i
want to have 5 images load per row. i think i need to create empty
movie clips for each thumbnail to load into, but i'm not sure.
hell, i don't even know how to code this so it will work correctly.
would someone be willing to put this together for me? i am a
beginner actionscripter, and if people simply tell me "add this
line in so this will happen," i will have no idea what to do, so
that is why i need the code put in for me. i'm hoping someone here
is nice enough to do this for me, because being ignored on two
other forums has made me just want to say "screw it."
so PLEASE, can someone help me?
i have uploaded my files into a .zip file. i have only
uploaded 6 of the pictures, so that i can see if the code (that
someone will hopefully make) works when i asked for 5 thumbnails
per row.
file is located here:
http://www.arielseri.com/fla_files.zip

i completely understand. i've actually come up with a
semi-working solution!
i have 15 thumbnails total, but when i play the movie, all 15
load on one line and after 5 show up, the rest go off the stage. i
would like to set it up so that there are 5 .swfs per row. i have
one main .swf file, and two .as files. the code for each is as
follows (the ========== is just to separate the code):
main .swf code (called test.swf):
==========
fscommand("fullscreen", "false");

this.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnails_mc",

Need help to start with some file and text manipulation

Hello script mavens,
I need help with starting a script that does the following:
-within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
-moves all the files into the images folder
-within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
-writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
-then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder and renames in indexX.html
-in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
The task is more complex but this would help me tremendously do the rest.
If I am asking for too much on this forum please let me know

This should get you started.
The description of how you want to write the data isn't clear, but the rest should work (untested):
property imageNum : 0 -- last used ImageNumber
-- within a base folder it takes an inventory (list?) of all the files (which happen to be image files).
-- get the folder:
set baseFolder to (choose folder)
-- now get the files within it:
tell application "Finder"
set fileList to every file of folder baseFolder as alias list
end tell
--creates a new folder inside the base folder and calls it imagesX where X increases by one every time the script is run
tell application "Finder"
set imageNum to imageNum + 1
set newImageFolder to make new folder at baseFolder with properties {name:"images" & imageNum}
-- moves all the files into the images folder
move every file of folder baseFolder to newImageFolder
--within the base folder it creates a new text file and calls it imagesX.js
set textFile to (open for access file (baseFolder as text) & "images" & imageNum & ".js" with write permission)
--writes a "//-" into imagesX.js
write "//-" to textFile
-- then writes the list of filenames into the imagesX.js twice, separated by an empty line, and adds a semicolon to the end of each filename and saves imagesX.js
-- need more info here
-- a blank line between each instance of the file name? or all file names, blank line, all file names again?
-- an example, please
close access textFile
--from a folder a level above the base folder it copies a file called index.html into the base folder
--and renames in indexX.html
--in indexX.html it replaces a string "replaceThis" with "imagesX.js"
-- the easiest way of doing this is to read the file and write a new copy with the changes - that's easier than changing it in situ:
set indexHTML to (read file "index.html" of folder (container of baseFolder))
set {oldTIDs, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, "replaceThis"}
set indexHTML to text items of indexHTML
set my text item delimiters to "imagesX.js"
set indexHTML to indexHTML as text
set my text item delimiters to oldTIDs
set indexFile to (open for access file ("index" & imageNum & ".html") with write permission)
write indexHTML to indexFile
close access indexFile
end tell

Need Help Loading SWF in a FLA

I simply want to call a swf into an existing fla. I have
tried everything. When dragging the timeline, you see the swf. When
you preview, it is not there. Background - I have an exisiting fla
that contains the image background for all. I want to set a
transparent carousel menu on top of the background that is in the
fla and leave the existing background and lower objects in place.
The carousel.swf will need to call java and an xml file on the web
server.....all external to the "summed" final. If I could layer
flashed in DW, then the problem would also be solved. Please be
detailed, I am obviously not a developer.

although I'm not certain why you would not just 'place' the
background 'image' on the stage in the fla (probably because you
wish to change it dynamically down the road) - you need to 'load'
the swf, not 'place' it within the other file. you do this with the
MovieClipLoader class.
with the swf that you wish to load in the same directory as
the swf of the carousel file, place something like the following in
the first frame, on a layer called actions, in the actions panel:

Load images with some effects

Hi, I wanted to load java images with some effects like we have in power point like blinds or appear in Java swing when user clicks on the image.
I have these specific questions in mind:
1.Is there a way to do this in Java?
2.Also how will this behave when the image to load is huge like 25 Mega Pixel?
3.If we are dealing with large images being switched, what mechanism should be used for incorporating images in the application?
4. Can there be a provision of displaying an image over another one with the one on the top having some transparency?
Thanks,
Sandeep

I mean Java is a programming language, Powerpoint is a crime against nature.
You'd need to program those effects (or find a library that does).OK, i think i will have to try this out first.
The point is that i wanted to confirm to go with java or choose python.
I need to track user inputs and display really large images. Now the interaction is really on graphical side like have moving images in the application which are transparent. I know Java but havent played with images yet and was not sure whether it will be worth spending days on this and then switch to python.

well my scenario will be 2x2 matrix of screens. it will be a 25 MP screen. so wont this work now in this context?Sure, if you have the resolution.
i was thinking in terms of response time. any inputs?And I was answering in terms of response time. The Fullscreen API. Of course you'll need to keep all the images in memory (or at least a certain range if you want to show them fast enough).
4. Can there be a provision of displaying an image over another one with the one on the top having some transparency?Sure.any pointers?Well, Java does support transparency and alpha channel. But you'll need to go through the APIs to find ways to do those.
Is there a reason why you want to do this in Java?I mentioned that I have worked on swing before but was not sure to do it in a totally new prog. language like python.
