Topic: just bought pro. couple questions..

Hi,

I just bought pro. Like it.

i have few questions. I am a programmer too so i am trying to figure things out. If you can help me out which object is where.. what to modify. Thanks.

1. first i want to change the location of caption. if you can help me with that. move it under right under images(i wonder it may not work because of image resize)
2. i need to add "contact" text hyperlinked to a site in the flash page itself. Dont want html, i want it in flash bottom.
3. I want to include a rectangular single frame behind image and thumbs so i can create dimension on the page by differentiation background / that frame's color.

Thanks for answers.

Re: just bought pro. couple questions..

Hi,
Lots of question :)
1.

You can change the location in ImageArea.as
around line 205
This will locate your buttons below the image, based on a btn width of 54pix, adjust to your needs 
Code:

/*
/////////////////////////resize if needed with math of image *changed* ///button width =54
*/
         mBackBtn.setBtnPosn(imgx -fw + btnW,imgy + h  + btnW );      
         mBackBtn.setHitPosn(imgx - fw - btnW,imgy +h + btnW/2);
         mBackBtn.setHitSize(w/4,h/4);      
         mNextBtn.setBtnPosn(imgx + w  - btnW,imgy + h  + btnW );      
         mNextBtn.setHitPosn(imgx + fw + w*2/3 +btnW,imgy + h + btnW/2 );
         mNextBtn.setHitSize(w/4,h/4);
                  
      }else{

2.add it in the simpleviewer.fla
3. add a BG to your holder MC
4. no link in pro, but you can add a link in flash
5. use a fixed layout and set size of viewer.swf
6. toggle on/off for 2 songs - ck out the help files in flash or see some examples on flashkit or google

Hope that gets you started
post back if not

Re: just bought pro. couple questions..

i just tried to reply but got a general error???

anyway, fingers crossed for the second time around

basically, i have the same issue as per his Q1 in that i'd like to move the caption under the images rather than the thumbs.  however after making your suggested changes, recompiling the viewer.swf and replacing the old viewer with the new, i can't see any difference??

can you please tell me where i'm going wrong?

i assume my error  was due to my code and so, i'll post that seperately

many thanks in advance
