Landscape/Portrait Thumbs not lining up in gallery

programming flash
1

Hey guys, I Fiannly got the XML photo gallery the way i want it, but when i tried adding my own pictures/thumbs some of them are vertical as opposed to horizontal. There ends up being a big space in between them, and some overlap each otehr and other ones than that just dont show up at all.

Thats what it looks like. …yeah i know… not to good.:hurt:

My Question is should i just go into photoshop and put them all on a black 300x200 canvas so theres a black border around it and theyll all be the same image size or is there a way around it.

Fla and XML attached however xml is set up to work local after wthe first 7 which i changed to get the pic from the URL so you can see what im tlaking about.

Here it is. The thumbnails are getting all messed up and lining up on top of each other and all this weird stuff.

// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);
scroll_speed = 10;
tscroller.onEnterFrame = function() {

if ((_root._ymouse>=thumbnail_mc._y) && (_root._ymouse<=thumbnail_mc._y+thumbnail_mc._height)) {

if ((_root._xmouse>=(hit_right._x-40)) && (thumbnail_mc.hitTest(hit_right))) {

thumbnail_mc._x -= scroll_speed;

} else if ((_root._xmouse<=310) && (thumbnail_mc.hitTest(hit_left))) {

thumbnail_mc._x += scroll_speed;

}

} else {

delete tscroller.onEnterFrame;

}

};

}
     
function thumbnails_fn(k) {

thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
tlistener = new Object();
tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) {

target_mc._x = hit_left._x+(eval("thumbnail_mc.t"+k)._width+5)*k;
target_mc.pictureValue = k;
target_mc.onRelease = function() {

p = this.pictureValue-1;
nextImage();

};
target_mc.onRollOver = function() {

this._alpha = 50;
thumbNailScroller();

};
target_mc.onRollOut = function() {

this._alpha = 100;

};

};
image_mcl = new MovieClipLoader();
image_mcl.addListener(tlistener);
image_mcl.loadClip(thumbnails[k], "thumbnail_mc.t"+k);

}

Try this:

function thumbnails_fn(k) {
	thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
	tlistener = new Object();
	tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) {
		if (k>0) {
			target_mc._x = thumbnail_mc["t"+(k-1)]._x+thumbnail_mc["t"+(k-1)]._width+5;
		} else {
			target_mc._x = hit_left._x;
		}
		target_mc.pictureValue = k;
		target_mc.onRelease = function() {
			p = this.pictureValue-1;
			nextImage();
		};
		target_mc.onRollOver = function() {
			this._alpha = 50;
			thumbNailScroller();
		};
		target_mc.onRollOut = function() {
			this._alpha = 100;
		};
	};
	image_mcl = new MovieClipLoader();
	image_mcl.addListener(tlistener);
	image_mcl.loadClip(thumbnails[k], "thumbnail_mc.t"+k);
}

Well if definielty did something… it didnt fix it tho. Now it only shows the thumbs for picture 5, 33, 31 and 4. In that order and they are overlapping. Before it at least had about 90% of the thumbs visable. You can still click next and previous to navigate thru them so i know theyre there. I just cant figure this out!

hmm that didnt work, i think im just going to go ahead and do the canvas resizing on all of them so theyre all nice and evenly sized. Thanks for helping scotty! All you do here is really amazing!
