I have a basic thumbnail loading a movie clip container to hold jpegs. I have both vertical and horiz jpgs that need to be shown.
I have named the instances “containerv” and “containerh” (I need the registration points in different locations so they will be centered in the container) on the same frame- I have successfully acomplished this however, when testing I click on the vertical thumb and of course it (the full image) shows up, and when I click on the horiz. thumb it shows too but its on top of the other image. When I choose another vertical image - it shows behind the horiz. IF all the images are vert, they will go to the next one no problem. I have even tried 2 layers, and different frames for the container.
I am using these to call the instances:
on(release){
containerv.loadMovie("…/gallery/weddings/01.jpg");
}
and
on(release){
containerh.loadMovie("…/gallery/weddings/07.jpg");
}
I have 44+ thumbs, so I would like to resolve this before moving on!
Surely this is something simple.
Also, Most of my flash experience has been basic animation (intros, banners etc. ) so I have really never used another scene or had to call another mc.
I will eventually need to add a button to call the next page of thumbs. Do I create another “swf page” just like the one I have or another scene? And how do I call it? I tried a dummy - scene2 and used a button
on(release){
bg.loadMovie(“scene2”);
}
(bg is the background image of the movies first scene). I didnt know what else to do here.
Thanks in advance!
