Photo Gallery with smoothing, shuffle, and mask transitions

programming flash
1

Hi,
I have some Actionscript for smoothing a dynamic image when it resizes and applying a mask to it. My idea is to have a slideshow that loads another random, masked, smoothed bitmap on top of this one (and animate the mask to create a transition, then unload the bottom bitmap). I would also really appreciate also it if the photos don’t repeat.

Can anyone help me make additions to this Actionscript for these functionalities? I’m having a devil of a time with this and I’m already late for my client. :frowning:


function loadBitmapSmoothed(url:String, target:MovieClip) {
	// Create a movie clip which will contain our unsmoothed bitmap
	var bmc:MovieClip = target.createEmptyMovieClip("bmc",target.getNextHighestDepth());
	// Create a listener which will notify us when the bitmap loaded successfully
	var listener:Object = new Object();
	// Track the target
	listener.tmc = target;
	listener.onLoadStart = function() {
		backgroundMC.createEmptyMovieClip("loadingBar", backgroundMC.getNextHighestDepth());
		backgroundMC.loadingBar.drawRectangle(610, 3, 0xFFFFFF);
		backgroundMC.loadingBar._x=7;
		backgroundMC.loadingBar._y=404;
		backgroundMC.loadingBar._xscale=.1;
	}
	listener.onLoadProgress = function(mc:MovieClip) {
		var nPer:Number = Math.round((mc.getBytesLoaded()/mc.getBytesTotal())*100);
		backgroundMC.loadingBar._xscale=nPer;
	}
	listener.onLoadInit = function(mc:MovieClip) {
		mc._visible = false;
		var bitmap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(mc._width, mc._height, true);
		this.tmc.attachBitmap(bitmap, this.tmc.getNextHighestDepth(),"auto", true);
		bitmap.draw(mc);
	}
	listener.onLoadComplete = function(mc:MovieClip) {
		var loading :Tween = new Tween(backgroundMC.loadingBar, "_alpha", Regular.easeInOut, 100, 0, 1, true);
		backgroundMC.createEmptyMovieClip("maskMC", backgroundMC.getNextHighestDepth());
		backgroundMC.maskMC._x=7;
		backgroundMC.maskMC._y=140;
		backgroundMC.maskMC.drawRectangle(610, 268, 0x000000);
		backgroundMC.maskMC._yscale=0;
		target.setMask(backgroundMC.maskMC)
		var masker :Tween = new Tween(backgroundMC.maskMC, "_yscale", Regular.easeInOut, 0, 100, 1, true);
	}
	var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
	loader.addListener(listener);
	loader.loadClip(url, bmc);
	}
pic_arr = ["images/slideshow1.jpg", "images/slideshow2.jpg", "images/slideshow3.jpg", "images/slideshow4.jpg", "images/slideshow5.jpg"];
ranNum = Math.floor(Math.random()*pic_arr.length);
loadBitmapSmoothed(pic_arr[ranNum], backgroundMC.photoBox);
