Ken Burn's Effect - Multiple Images

great mrevs. thx… shoot me an email through my profile and i’ll send you a revised file that pulls in a complete url for each image.

i just purchased: ken burns effect multiple images. it is great but when i make the stage 780×300 the images passed to it are kept to the original stage width of 590. how can i get it to allow images 780 wide and fill the stage?

you have to republish the flash file to change the size. make sure your xml and html file is updated to reflect the new size. lemme know if you need any more help.

This is a great flash file

I had a few problems trying to customise the file to do some things that weren’t intended, but animike was quick (like within an hour or so) to respond to emails with answers to my questions and updated files.

Highly recommended, will be checking out his other files and I recommend you do to!!

Cheers Mike

animike,

I know I’m being thickheaded, but maybe you can help me on some simple stuff…

Your sample HTML works fine.

1.) Now I need to know where to modify your sample code when the swf file is not in the site root. Let’s say I inherited a site with a folder called “phlash”, and I want to keep all swf files in there. I have tried:

embed src=”phlash/kenburns_multi_fd.swf”

and

embed src=”/phlash/kenburns_multi_fd.swf”

with and without changing the value parameter, as well as changing and not changing the src used by the AC_FL_RunContent function. I’m sure I’m missing something simple…

==================================

2.) I see that I can change the name of the folder for storing the images from “gallery1” to whatever I want, but is it hardcoded that gallery1 must be a subfolder of “images”?

==================================

3.) does the XML file have to reside in a folder called “data” right off the root? Is that hardcoded?

Thanks,

Dennis (I purchased this file, as well as “ken burns ultimate”

Sorry, I’ve got one more:

4.) I’d like to get rid of the black border, either 0 width or maybe 1 pixel, but your default size is too big for my project. Where do I change that? (I have Flash 10 (CS4.) I don’t see anything in the fla file to change, other than the size and stage color.

Actually, I’m not sure if it is really a border, or an offset. It appears that the movie top left is set to something like (8, instead of (0,0) on the stage.

Thanks!

Dennis

I have Problem with changing the path to the swf File, if i change all the path info in the html file oder canche the name of the swf file the Flash didn’t work anymore ;-((

Did you move all of the other files ( XML ,images) to the new folder as well?

can the images have a link to an html page

it was never set up for that. that option exists in the “ultimate version” but the link is clickable in a banner, not on the image.

Hi Animike, I’m lovin your work the Ken Burns Ultimate has saved me loads of time and heartache with my beginners Flash ability and is enabling me to turnaround a juicy looking piece of work in record time… huge thanks!

However, can I echo “dtleahy’s” comments in full and ask if you have any recommendations.

Also I’ve got an odd bug which I’m not sure how I’ve created and seems to be present even after I unzip your files: The first time I load the ‘index.html’ into my browser (Mac Firefox 3.0.11, or Safari 4.0) the first image of Gallery1 loads but then either continues to zoom in (or out) infinite, and does not move to the next image. Therefore I’m either left with a black screen or major zoomed in detail. It works fine if you rollover the ‘GALLERY’ tab and mousedown, but not on first load?

Help!

is this for ultimate gallery? you posted in multiple gallery… here is a quick solution for it:

Hey… in the burnsGallery MC – frame 2 – Line 18 change

var b_transition:Boolean = false; to true.

When I try to load a new xml source the fades start to get erratic. Do I need to remove clips or clear variables?

I get this error

ZigoEngine.doTween – missing targets[undefined] and/or props[_alpha]

Hi animike!

Great job! I have already purchased the file and need to know how to get the slowest speed in the burn effect (I mean I need the effect as slowly as possible not the transitions, the zoom in/out effect. sorry for my english), I’m making a simple banner with two images, I’ve noticed that there’s a random initial position of images and I need only the same image position, with only this two images. Always the same. Finally this banner will be inserted in another banner rotator with 7 banners, that’s why I need to avoid the spinner layer, but when I delete this layer I get an error of ZigoEngine, well and advice.

Thank’s for this great job, and hope to get an answer as soon as possible.

I was having trouble loading the images into the slideshow. The movie was loading fine, but the images were not. I did some testing and figured out that the data folder and images folder need to be in the site root for this to work.

Is there any way to change this? I need to call a specific xml file a few levels deep due to a dynamic site built on a cms.

This is a great file, but can you help me with this? Thanks!

I have download your animation. I have 4 images to use with it. I want to if if it’s possible to set different transition time between images. That is I want to have the transition time from the first to the second image different from the one from the second and the third, ... I want also have “zoom in” for the first image and “zoom out” for the second, ... Thank you Best whishes. Claudio

Hi animike,

good work, looks (almost ;o) like the thing I’m looking for.

Some quick Q’s:

I do not need any menu/thumbnail functionality, just the playbck, so V2 seems the best match, however without the border – thus:

) What authoring tool(s) do I need to remove the border?

) Are there any technical differences (aside the extended functionality that I do not need) between V2 and V3, i.e. are there compatibility or other issues with V2 that were fixed in V3? (I am of course aware that you’d prefer to sell the more expensive version, I dare ask this nevertheless ;o)

) Is the file editable in all regards, i.e. could I add any or change existing functionality if need be? What about the usage licence in that case?

) Speaking of licence – do I understand correctly that I may use the gallery in any site I like? Would you like to have your authorship mentioned?

Thanks a lot, cheers & regards

I’ve purchased today your file and I’ve used it on 3 FLA files that compose 1 website. The first file that I load is ok, but when I load other files, the images appears in disorder, time randomly… all slide are crazy

I think of this is caused from the Array or parametres that are the same from all files.

Is there a mode to Reset all parametres??

Best Regards Max
