X3Photo Gallery Forums

I bought ImageVue to place over a Flash site I'm developing and now I've hit a massive problem.

It's probably easier to view but here's the gist. I've got rid of the background of the gallery to allow the flash underneath to be visible.

When you click an image the whole flash file underneath moves over.

The base flash files loads a loader into level 2 which contains an empty movie clip where the gallery sits.

Any help here would be most appreciated.

I was working on it late last night and the only way I could get the file to be transparent was to get rid of the 'backimagemc' off the 'back' layer. All other option resulted in the bgcolor covering the flash underneath.

This then introduced yet another issue which was the fact that the thumbnails looked odd behind a zoomed image when they were 100% opacity.

To solve that one I loaded a tinted box into the layer below the one that the slideshow is loaded into (902) i think. Ended up moving the slideshow to layer 903 putting the tinted box into 902 and then I had to find the close button for the slideshow image so that it unloaded the tint box as well as the image.

The displacement was due to the fact that I had a different stage dimension in the code. Again that took a long time to figure out as the stage dimensions appear all over the files. I also had to relook at on of the pieces of code that moved the stage when you hit the thumbnail.

Anyway, sorted it in the end

All good fun and as I'm not that comfortable with actionscript it was a bit of a challenge.

I have to say though that the ImageVue itself is a bit of a masterpiece of coding. Now I can alter the size, spacing etc it's going to be a pleasure to use in future projects for me.
