From: bumwhip on 24 Apr 2008 09:16 hi guys, new to flash here. i'm a photographer and preficent on photoshop, but only just downloaded the trial version of flash from adobe. i want to see if i can do something before i buy... i've taken a sequence of 18 photos (jpegs) of a shoe for the manufacturure, slowly rotating it around 360 degrees, a bit further in each pic, so it can be seen from all angles. i'd like to have all the pics in some kind of annimation (dont know if thats the right word) or sequence so that the person viewing can scroll back and forward through them, giving the impression that they are looking at an interactive 360dgree spin of the shoe. i cant explain myself v well, so i found this example. i can't credit the person who did it unfortunitly. http://www.photo-mojo.co.uk/scripts/..._SkiBoot3c.swf not bothered about the brightness thingy. i know this can't be TOO hard. also, i've searched the forum and found a few similar posts but no ones really answered this one, that i know of. sorry if i'm repeating someone else. bear in mind im total newbie to flash any help would be greatly appreciated and i'll buy you a beer next time i see you! robina x
From: DMennenoh **AdobeCommunityExpert** on 24 Apr 2008 09:46 If your sequence is numbered properly, such as image01.jpg, image02.jpg - etc. Then you do File > Import, and click the first image. Flash will produce a dialog saying the image appears to be part of a sequence... Choose Yes to import all images, an each will be imported to a new frame. If you first create a new MovieClip, then enter the clips timeline, you can do the import and you'll have a MovieClip to scrub through... -- Dave - Head Developer http://www.blurredistinction.com Adobe Community Expert http://www.adobe.com/communities/experts/

robina x, > i know this can't be TOO hard. Well ... difficulty assessment is a subjective beast. ;) It's not what I would call "TOO" hard, but it will certainly require a bit of programming, which means you have to decide which version of ActionScript to use. ActionScript 3.0 (AS3) requires that your website visitors would need Flash Player 9 or higher installed. ActionScript 2.0 (AS2) means you could publish your spinning shoe for visitors with Flash Player 6 installed. Does it matter to you? (Many agencies, out of principle, refuse to create content for the latest-and-greatest plugin.) > any help would be greatly appreciated and i'll buy you a beer > next time i see you! I'll remember that. lol What version of ActionScript do you want? David Stiller Co-author, Foundation Flash CS3 for Designers http://tinyurl.com/2k29mj "Luck is the residue of good design." |
