I’m in the process of creating a website of rmy folio but and already struggling!! Although i have used flash quite a lot its always been for for very short periods so i’m a bit of hack when it comes to Action script.
attached in a small portfolio slider that i’m working on to be loaded externally in my site, it almost works except for the final problem that i can’t solve. If you download and view the file you’ll see that the panel slides off to the right so its out of view and then can be slid back into view by clicking the button again. I originally had this working fine by using motion tween, frame 1 - 15 slide to right, frames 16 - 29 slide back to left and then let movie run back to frame 1 and loop complete. But i found when it looped it reset the state of thumbnail previews to the default which isn’t how i want it. I need the thumbnail previews to stay as they were when panel slides of screen. so i’ve now used prevFrame to reverse the back from frame 15 - 1, but now my button for sliding the panel in and out doesn’t work as i need… i been playing with were the actions are placed etc but can’t get it sussed and could really do with someones help, i’m quite close i think but the last step has eaten my afternoon away!!
So if any of you would be kind enough to have a look at the the attched file and give me some advice it would be much appreciated. Once you see the file working i’m sure it make more sense than my long winded explanation
