Need help with a scrolling background image

I've got a 800x600 document that has a panoramic picture scrolling horizontally and buttons in the image.
i've got this piece of code for AS2.0
_global.plotis = Stage.width;
centre._x = _global.plotis / 2;
speed = 40;
full._y = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function(){   
    if(_xmouse<300 || _xmouse>500){
    var A:Boolean = false;
    var X = _xmouse - _global.plotis / 2;
    full._x += -X / speed;
    if (full._x >= 0) {
        full._x = 0;
    if (full._x <= -(full._width - _global.plotis)) {
        full._x = -(full._width - _global.plotis);
Otherwise it is working all good, but I'd like it to stay put at the start. Right now it immidiately starts scrolling to right unless I move the mouse on top to stop it. So ye, i need to have it sitting still and only scroll when the mouse is at the edges of the document...
Cheers,
PK

use:
_global.plotis = Stage.width;
centre._x = _global.plotis / 2;
speed = 40;
full._y = 0;
this.onMouseMove=function(){
delete this.onMouseMove;
this.onEnterFrame = function(){   
    if(_xmouse<300 || _xmouse>500){
    var A:Boolean = false;
    var X = _xmouse - _global.plotis / 2;
    full._x += -X / speed;
    if (full._x >= 0) {
        full._x = 0;
    if (full._x <= -(full._width - _global.plotis)) {
        full._x = -(full._width - _global.plotis);

  • Help With Photoshop CS4 + background image

    So I'm trying to edit this background image for my myspace page, it looked fine in photoshop cs4, even when I previewed the image with the save to web and devices , the image looks fine. I also saved the iamge with the highest quality settings I could as a JPG. But when I add it to my myspace page the image becomes blurry , it's hard to see everything
    www.myspace.com/jchase45
    I know it's not the code becuase the code is exactly the same , the only thign I changed was the image adress. The only part of the iamge i changed in cs4 was the logos, i didnt change the iamge size its stil lthe same.
    Please any help would be greatly apreciated, if you need me to uplaod my project jsut let me know.

  • Need help with video-scroll

    Hello,
    I need some help with a project. What I eventually want is that a webcam controls the mouse position and the mouse position
    controls a video. But first I would like the part where the mouse position controls the video.
    So if the mouse is on the left on your screen the video will be at the first frame and when you move you're mouse to
    the right the video will play accordingly to the movement. and stop when the mouse is all the way to the right.
    Effectivly the mouse scrolles through the video. It only needs to be on the x-axis.
    I'm not that formilliar with flash so any help would be great
    Thx!

  • Need help with full screen slideshow image quality

    I am looking to display some images with full screen slideshow. The images I add are very large, over 5000 wide. When I publish the site some images retain their quality while others lose it and look like crap. Why would this be and how can I fix it. I tried to resize them to the 2560x1707 that muse does, and then add them. This doesn't change the end result of poor quality.

    Go to Assets Panel and locate the image you want to use at original size. Right click the image and chose 'Import Larger Size'.
    See if that helps retain quality for that image, since Muse does not resize/interpolate that image for you.

  • Need help with smooth scrolling of a sprite

    Hi All,
    Something that i have had many problems over the years with
    is creating the same nice smooth scrolling effect that i see on
    many sites (my scrolling always appears jerky in AS2 even when done
    on a movieClip with a high framerate - with onEnterFrame updates).
    At the moment i am building my first AS3 site, and want to
    use it as an opportunity to "do things right".
    So far i have a very simple setup that is scrolling a sprite
    that contains a series of loaded images based on the position of a
    scrollbar. As one would expect from something this simple - it is
    rather jerky.
    I tried a number of variations of using a Tween to do the
    scroll, and kill/update that tween when the mouse moves again.
    However in all cases the results were not good (multiple tweens
    seemed to still be active - so killing the tween wasn't working).
    So clearly i am doing something wrong.
    I have searched extensively, but have not come across any
    examples that seem appropriate (some predefined components - but
    that does not help me understand the fundamentals) . I have seen
    some examples that register a timer, and manually calculate the
    offset for each frame, is this the correct approach?
    Below is my existing simple (jerky) implementation.
    All help to understand how to make this scrolling smooth
    would be hugely appreciated.
    One more thing to add incase it is relevant, is that the
    contents of the Sprite are a series of jpg images loaded with the
    Loader class (although i plan on switching to using the BulkLoader
    class created by a developer in the AS3 community).

    nope. the approach for the smoothest tween would be to:
    1. initialize your parameters
    2. create your timer.
    3. add your timer's listener method when needed (when your
    slider is clicked).
    4. in your timer's listener function repeatedly poll the
    slider's position and update your sprite using the parameters
    determined in 1.
    5. remove your listener when the slider is released.

  • New to Photoshop (CS4Ext) and need help with basic loading of images to new folder.

    Just purchased CS4Ext and installed it. It's not showing up on my desktop as a quick entry icon. I want to simply load images from a portable hard drive (USB) to a new folder in photoshop so I can review them and begin to select  and separate out some of interest to manipulate  and share or get ready to print. It 's the most basic help one can need butI'm jut not clear on the workflow steps . Would appreciate someone walking me through the steps .

    Let's see…   First of all, this is the Photoshop Macintosh forum.  Installed applications never, ever show up on your desktop as a "quick entry" icon on a Mac.  Are you on a Windows PC maybe?

    Just select them with your mouse in the Finder and drag-copy them into the new folder.  Done.

  • Need help with the hover over images from small to bigger

    I read the tutorial about the hover over the small image shows a bigger image. I thought I would try it own my own but it did not work, do I need to make a link to the CSS file or do I need to do something different. Please help

    Here is the tutorial link:
    http://www.dreamweaverclub.com/dreamweaver-show-larger-image.php
    This is a pure CSS Image Swap without the need for JavaScript behaviors.
    It places the thumbnail image on a page with a "nolink" link or anchor so the  CSS hover rule can invoke the appearance of the larger  image inside  an absolutely positioned division (APDiv) layer.
    Paste the CSS code into the top of your page between the <head> and </head> tags.
    <style type="text/css">
    /**image to large**/
    #picture {width:100px; height: 250px; background-color:#ffffff;}
    #picture a.small, #picture a.small:visited { display:block; width:100px; height:100px; text-decoration:none; background:#ffffff; top:0; left:0; border:0;}
    #picture a img {border:0;}
    #picture a.small:hover {text-decoration:none; background-color:#000000; color:#000000;}
    #picture a .large {display:block; position:absolute; width:0; height:0; border:0; top:0; left:0;}
    #picture a.small:hover .large {display:block; position:absolute; top: 90px; left:150px; width:200px; height:200px; }
    </style>
    Paste the HTML code between the <body> and </body> tags:
    <div id="picture">
    <a class="small" href="#nogo" title="small image"><img src="small-image.jpg" width="125" height="83" title="small image" />
    <img class="large" src="large-image.jpg" title="large image" /></a>
    </div> <!--end picture-->
    Change small-image.jpg and large-image.jpg to your own.

    You need to make a JTextArea, pass that into the JScrollPane's constructor, and add the JScrollPane to your frame.

  • Need Help with Problem Batch Rotating Images in iPhoto 8!

    Hello, recently I have been having a lot of problems with pic files becoming unusable once I batch rotate them in iPhoto 8, so now I want to rotate the pictures 180º before I import them into iPhoto. Is there a free program out there that can help me do this without losing any picture quality. I REALLY don't want to have to individually open up over 2000 photos in Preview and individually rotate them that way.
    Does this same batch rotating problem occur in Aperture 1.5.6?
    TIA for ANY and ALL help!!!

    You can create an Automator workflow application to batch rotate a folder of photos 180 degrees. You need to download and install GraphicConverter first. You can use it in the demo mode by first opening it before you drop your folder of photos onto the application .
    When you install GC select the option to install the GC Automator workflows. Open Automator and put in the following elements: 1 - Get Finder Items; 2 - Rotate. You can select to use Quicktime or the internal algorithm. Save it as an application.
    This all must be done outside of iPhoto and then import into iPhoto.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Need help with Elements loading RAW images since I switched cameras.

    I recently switched from a Canon Rebel XT to a Canon Rebel T1i. I have Elements 6.0 and was able to see RAW images with my old camera. For some reason the RAW images aren't loading in Elements now. I get a message saying the files are corrupt. I've tried different cards but still no difference. Any suggestions?

    you need at least ACR 5.4 for your T1i/500D
    ACR 5.6 and therefore earlier versions work on PSE 6.
    You should upgrade your PSE 6 to ACR 5.6; it does work on PSE 6 at least in WIndows. I know because ACR 5.6 works on my PSE 6 under Windows Vista.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Best!

  • Need help with column formatting (see image)

    I am trying to make a spreadsheet that calculates proportional image sizes of a fixed original size. I have it set up so you enter an original size on the left (see image below) and the spreadsheet calculates the proportional sizes on the right (in the pink column). I would like to know how to get Appleworks to re-list the proportional sizes while omitting the size pairs that = 0. Basically i want to display the proportional sizes in a new column without the zeros. This way the proportional sizes list is much smaller and easier to read.
    Thanks for any help

    g5   Mac OS X (10.4)  
    g5   Mac OS X (10.4)  
    g5   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    Part 2
    The method indicated in your original spreadsheet, and after the refinements suggested earlier, is essentially a sieve—calculate all the values, then strain out the chaff (ie. the results with non-integer values for one or both dimensions).
    A more efficient approach is to calculate and display only the cases where both dimensions are integers.
    Here's one way. You may want to move some of the calculations and revise the formulas accordingly.
    Data Entry:
    Cells B4 and C4 are used for data entry, as in the original.
    Initial calculation: Find the LCF (largest common factor) Columns J, K, L and cell M1.
    J1: =(B$4/ROW())=INT(B$4/ROW())
    K1: =(C$4/ROW())=INT(C$4/ROW())
    L1: =IF(J1+K1=2,ROW(),"")
    Fill these three columns down to the largest short side dimension you expect to use (ie. if you'll use 39 x 78 inch original images, fill down to row 39).
    What the formulas do:
    J1: The ROW() function returns the number of the row in which the formula is located. B$4/ROW() divides the number in B4 by the number of the row. INT(B$4/ROW()) does the same division, then strips off any fractional part of the result. The second = sign is a comparison operator. The formula compares the results of the parts on each side of the sign and, if they are equal, returns TRUE (or 1), and if they are not equal, returns FALSE (or 0).
    For the example (6), the formula would return TRUE in rows 1, 2, 3 and 6, marking the four factors of 6.
    K1: Does the same, but for the number in C4.
    For the example (8), the formula returns TRUE in rows 1, 2, 4 and 8, marking the four factors of 8.
    L1: This IF() formula checks for common factors. If the cells in both columns (J and K) in a particular row contain TRUE (ie. the number of that row is a factor of both the number in B4 and the number in C4), then the sum of the two cells will be 2 (TRUE=1, FALSE=0, TRUE + TRUE = 2), and the formula will return the result of the ROW() function (ie. the number of the row). For any other result, the formula will return 'empty' (ie. what's between the two double quotes "" ).
    For the example, cells L1 and L2 will contain 1 and 2 respectively; the rest of the cells in column L will be empty.
    M1: =MAX(L1..L39)
    M1: This formula completes the search by picking off and returning the greatest number in column L, or the Largest Common Factor for the two numbers. Adjust the second cell reference in the formula to reflect the largest original image size you'll use.
    Final Calculations
    D4: =B$4/$M$1*(ROW()-3)
    E4: =C$4/$M$1*(ROW()-3)
    D4: The formula divides the number in B4 by the LCF determined above to determine the size increment that will give integer results for both dimensions of the final image(s). It then multiplies that increment by 1 in row 4, by 2 in row 5, by 3 in row 6, and so on, for as many rows as you wish. The -3 in the second part of the formula is an offset to make the value of the multiplier three less than the row in which the formula is located.
    E4: Same formula, but acting on the number in C4.
    The first five results for the example ( 6 and 8) are:

  • Need help with automatic resizing of images

    I am working with a liquid template in dreamweaver and when I insert my banner image and preview the page, the image stays the same size while the page template expands with the screen resolution.
    How can I set the image so it automatically expands with the page?

    Expanding an image in this way isn't really the best way of doing things, because depending on the image it can get very distorted when it's increased or decreased in size.  You are better off selecting a background colour and blending the image into that, so that when the browser window is increased you see the majority of the image, but on larger monitors, the image is blending into the background on either side of that image.
    There is a technique that may make this possible - I did read something about it at one point, but didn't save the URL.  However, the above method is probably the most reliable way of doing what you want.

  • Need help with Page Layout and Background Scaling

    hello, everyone.
    I am in the process of designing a new website for myself,
    and while I was researching nicely designed pages to use as
    inspiration, I stumbled upon this site:
    http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/
    obviously, the design is very impressive, but it also
    incorporates a lot of web mechanics that I have been trying to
    figure out, so I will use this page as an example.
    one thing I need help with is backgrounds. as you can see in
    the posted website, the creator used a seamlessly tiled paper
    texture to display the bulk of his content on. also make not of the
    pattern that is located to the left of the paper texture. how do I
    create seamless backgrounds like this that will scale to fit any
    amount of content or any resolution? I can't imagine that the guy
    that made that site created a new size background every time he
    made an update, so there has to be an easier way.
    the second thing that I am having trouble with is general
    site layout. I have read that most sites used series of invisible
    tables to organize there content, but when I open the source of
    this page in dreamweaver, he was using something different. div
    tags? should I be using these? who do I use them? are there any
    general layout tips that someone could pass on to me? perhaps a
    link to a good tutorial?
    please help me. i am very confused.
    thanks so much.

    IMO not a good site to emulate. To wit:
    Top background image:
    http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-top.jpg;
    745px
    x 350px 137K
    Main background image:
    http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-tile.jpg;
    745px x 950px 130K
    Total page size: 454K (Check here:
    www.websiteoptimization.com)
    Website usability experts routinely recommend a maximum page
    size of ~80K
    Check out the We We Scale @ www.FutureNowInc.com/wewe/ where
    they suggest,
    "You speak about yourself approximately 0,003 times as often
    as you speak
    about your customers. Might that have an impact on your
    effectiveness?"
    That is 100% consistent with the #1 Web Design mistake:
    "Believing people
    care about you and your web site." or to phrase more
    expansively, "Our site
    tries to tell you how wonderful we are as a company, but not
    how we're going
    to solve your problems."
    www.sitepoint.com has some excellent books on making a
    website actually
    attractive and usable at the same time.
