Scroll background image???

My background image (945 px wide) is larger than my Flash
window (620 px wide). When a user moves the cursor left or right, I
want the background image to move in that direction but only as far
as the edge of the image and when the cursor stops moving so should
the image. I will also have hot spots in various places that will
be clickable. I tried this code (see below), but it doesn't quite
do what I need. For one thing it continues to scroll beyond the
left and right edge of the background image. Another problem is
that the image keeps moving even though the cursor stopped, which
make it near impossible to click on my hotspots.

Hey,
I have thought of using this for the exact reason. I haven't
got around to using the hotspots but check out this tutorial. I
think this what you mean.

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);

How can you make a background image change to a faded state at a certain point in scroll?

I'm referring to a technique I've seen used in Relevant Magazine's iPad app if anyone has used it. I understand having a shape behind text that has a feathered gradient and when you scroll the text the shape gradually fades out the background image. But this is not the effect I'm trying to acheive. On some of the articles in Relevant, the screen is a full image and as you scroll the type up, the entire background dims when you scroll to a certain spot.
I've tried searching for hours, but I feel like I'm getting no where because I don't really know what to search for. I feel like it requires use of something other than what DPS is capable of. Hopefully this makes sense and I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions and help!
Thanks!

Try applying the feathered gradient to the scrollable content frame, not the background frame. It will appear to change the color of the background frame.

New bug in IE11 -- scrolling position:fixed + background-image elements jitters badly.

visit the following page in IE10 and IE11, and use your mouse wheel to scroll the page:
http://www.oussamaharb.com/
In IE <= 10, Safari, Chrome, and FireFox, the header section of that page stays put when scrolling. However, only in IE11, when you scroll the page the the header jumps around and jitters. Essentially IE11 will do this on any div with a fixed
background image.
Note the jitter does not happen if you grab the scrollbar with the cursor and move it up and down (which people rarely do). Some sort of bug when using mouse wheel has been introduced in IE11.

You are too late to see. He removed
background-attachment:fixed with IE11. His link originally showed the stuttering. It looked too unsatisfactory.
You can still see his handsome design with FireFox where it continues to work well. (And also good with Chrome, Opera, Safari too). See how the picture on top stays fixed when you scroll the page? Not with IE anymore. With IE
that great effect is removed, sacrificed to cure the ugly wart. The picture now just scrolls upward with the page to avoid the IE11 bug. Too bad.
Since your first reply here 7 months ago. Have you any special MVP insider-info yet how to make this great CSS3 port-hole feature scroll smoothly with IE11? Or possibly, you have encouraging news that it will become corrected in IE12? Your
name is IECustomizer MVP. It sounds like you will know.
Here are more stutter examples for you to examine. You may click the background to toggle several different ways to see the affliction during scroll. Please post back and tell your observation that you can see this stutter.
https://googledrive.com/host/0B8BLd2qPPV7XOGl1Sjk3c29uVlU
Possibly somebody still hasn't yet noticed in bryanangler's example ("OP"), IE11 needs to be maximized (or large) to observe the problem. At least,
somebody has not acknowledged. Bryanangler's page is Responsive Web Design (RWD). The menu on top is present when space permits. That's when the
background-attachment:fixed applies and makes the horrid stutter.

WHAT IN THE NAME OF GREAT CAESAR'S GHOST IS GOING ON HERE??
The background image on the second page SHIFTS over a few
pixels simply because I hard returned several times. The completion
of my entire site has been resting on this simple little headache.
Please help....

>>whenever I hard return several times
Stop doing that. There is never a valid reason in a properly
designed/constructed page to add empty paragraphs.
Probably... after adding content, even empty paragraphs, the
display window
in DW design view drops a vertical scroll bar thereby
changing the
horizontal location of the page's middle. Your bg image is
aligned middle so
it moves.
IOW there is no problem. Just build your page.

Background image not scrolling with text

My foreground text will resize with my browser but the background stays stationery, remains in the upper left. How do I fix this? I have included part of my code.
Ideally I would like to anchor text boxes to background image so it will scroll all together. If this can't be done I can use the margins and padding to adjust my text to work with the background I just need it to move with it. I've seen samples of this, which i think may have been done in photoshop but I would like to keep the copy live in DW. FYI, I added "background-attachment:scroll" to the code. I have searched and searched online for a solution to no avail. I am attaching a coupld of PDFs so you can see where I want to go. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch in advance and please be gentle.
body {
     background: #666666; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */
     padding: 0;
     text-align: center;
     background-image: url(Images/Background_Radial77.jpg);
     background-repeat: no-repeat;
     margin-right: 0%;
     margin-top: 19%;
     color: #FFF;
     background-color: #FFF;
     background-attachment:scroll
     margin-left: 0%;
     font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
     font-size: 100%;
     margin-bottom: 0;
     margin-left: 0;

My foreground text will resize with my browser but the background stays stationery, remains in the upper left. How do I fix this?
That's how web pages work. Remember, web design is nothing like print design. Printed pages or graphics are static.   Web pages must be flexible to accommodate different displays, text sizes and varying amounts of content.   Trying to precisely position text or other objects over a huge background is a bit like trying to nail Jello to a wall. No matter how hard you try, it will never hold up.
Fixed Background Example -
http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/fixed-background.shtml
Scrolling Divisions Example -
http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/multi-scrollbars.shtml
Your best option is to slice and dice your background image into usable segements in Photoshop or Fireworks. Save images only. Then re-assemble slices in DW to create flexible containers.

How can I get a parallax effect with Hub Control or change the background image scroll rate?

Like the title says, I'm trying to get more of a parallax effect with a Hub Control in Windows Phone. In my current hub app, the picture has to be as wide as the entire hub, and it scrolls through the picture quickly. I'd like a way to make the background
image scroll slower than the content on top of is.
I've looked everywhere in the API docs, but I can't find anything saying how to do this. :(

Hi PTK7,
Yes, currently there is no documentation for this effect, however we can manually control the image scroll speed:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10589192/windows-8-gridview-parallax-background-image
Also I found a sample from code center:
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/ParallaxBackground-A-Metro-f929e558, take a look to see if these helps.

Hi ViswAmmu,
>>Please help me out to get transparency for path in canvas to view background image in canvas.
If I'm not misunderstanding, I think you just need to loop through all Canvas.Children and set Opacity property for them:
private void Image_MouseLeftButtonDown_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
//Loop through all children items
foreach(UIElement v in CanvasPanel.Children)
v.Opacity = 0;
op.Title = "Select a picture";
op.Filter = "All supported graphics|*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.png|" +
"JPEG (*.jpg;*.jpeg)|*.jpg;*.jpeg|" +
"Portable Network Graphic (*.png)|*.png";
if (op.ShowDialog() == true)
ib.ImageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri(op.FileName));
imgBackground.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri(op.FileName));
CanvasPanel.Background = ib;

How to stop browser background image from scrolling?

So is there a way (an easy way) to stop browser background image from scrolling with the page?
Thanks
m

If it's a single image, add this code to center the page horizontally:
parent.document.body.style.backgroundPosition='50% 0%';
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/tmf/Duckmenu.html
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/duckmenu/duckassets/Spoorbackground.gif

Firefox scrolls slowly on websites with background images.

I find that when I go to websites that have background images, such as my tumblr (deshaunic.us) or the call of duty websites (http://www.callofduty.com/missions), scrolling is very slow and stutters, even though I have smooth scrolling enabled.
I have not had such issues with IE. I also have not had these issues on a different machine running Firefox 4 beta.

A workaround is to use a bookmarklet to make the background scroll. 
This code may not work on all sites, only if the background image is attached to the body.
<pre><nowiki>javascript:void(document.body.style.backgroundAttachment='scroll');</nowiki></pre>
See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bookmarklet

Background images which change with scrolling, just how is it done?

These fabulous sites, were featured on Adobe Muse's Site of the Day
http://www.streetreach.org/
http://www.lauranet.nl/
Brilliant sites. What they have in common is a background image (of sorts) that changes with scrolling, I just cant get my brain around how it's done?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Start with some of these:

I got these (and MANY more) by Googling, "Muse Parallax Scrolling"
Good luck.

Background Image Cuts Off - Browser Scroll Isn't Long Enough

Okay, fairly new to Dreamweaver, long-time graphic designer. That said, the answer will probably be easier than trying to explain the problem!
Using the Page Properties, I set the following in the Appearance (CSS) tab:
Background color to #000
Appearance HTML Background image (contains the image in question, created in Photoshop)
No-repeat
This Photoshop image is kind of long (960 x 2232) because there is a bunch of text that needs to flow on top. I thought that I reached some sort of maximum in height and so I reduced the height of the image a little and the same problem--cut off at the bottom of the browser. Note that this cut off issue was not a problem until I extended the graphic to this long length. On other pages, it is much shorter and all is well.
I've pasted a snapshot of the bottom of the web browser preview below. You can see that the scroll bar is at the bottom and there is just a small bit of the paper that is not showing. I would like the bottom of the paper to be seen with a little bit of the black background beneath that.
My first instinct is that I'm missing a bottom padding effect, but can't find where to adjust that type of setting.
Another Thought--I would much rather this graphic auto expand as the text flows over it, but did not know how to accomplish that, so I extended the graphic in the Photoshop file. Its not a tile type of image that can be repeated. It is an ancient looking paper, therefore, the top and bottom need to look a certain way, but the mid section could be tiled and repeated. So if this is a better route, please direct me on where to learn how to implement.
Thanks a bunch!

extra carriage returns were needed in the text frame to extend below the background image.
Rule #1 in web design:
Do not use non-breaking spaces, line breaks or empty tags as a layout device. It doesn't work in all devices or by all users.
Rule #2 in web design: Use CSS to style your layout with margins, padding and min-height properties.

Why is there a scroll bar though I set the background image to "scale to page size"?"

Why is there a scroll bar though I set the background image to "scale to page size"?"

The current build of iTunes may occasionally draw the scroll bar off the edge of the screen. It should be possible to resize the window to reveal the scroll bar.
You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar.
Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the previous search behaviour.
You can also open the menu bar temporarily by pressing Alt.

Background images flickering and turning black on scroll in published site, but in not preview.

The background images are very flickery and turning black when scrolling when viewing published site in Safari. This just started happening today after working on this for a few weeks now and the first time I'm noticing it. Everything is still ok in preview mode. All the large background images are optimized to be 500kb or less (they are all just placeholders).
http://ics0913.businesscatalyst.com
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

that is so strange, i had the location "image/rotator/......" for all three of my images in the js file and only the third one works?
i believe they are all loading up fine as of this moment, just like they were yesterday, but not this morning when i first arrived at work. i wonder what changes the location by itself.
hopefully the same thing won't happen again.
as for the text problem, thanks for pointing that out, i really appreciate it! but our office has been quite understaffed for a while, and no one here really knows anything about web maintenance. hopefully someone will fix those problems some day.
thanks again bregent!

Inserting 2 background images in to you site

I've seen many sites with more than 1 background images. How
can I do that with Dreamweaver CS3?
I am very curious and I need to know how to do that. I am a
newbie. Please don't give me horrible instructions. If you could
please just give me a link to a tutorial or if it is very simple
just tell me how to do it =]

Ok, try this, it will give you something to play with. Copy
all of the code
below between the *** and *** and paste it into a new html
page.
I did not make the top div 1000px wide, that would cause
quite a few people
to scroll left to right, but change it if you prefer. Your
bottom div will
grow in size depending on content.
Now someone else may have a better suggestion for you, but
this is one way
you can do what you seem to want to do.
