Re: Creating a slideshow from external images
Michael,
A local based slideshow should be fairly easy to create.
I suggest the following:
On layer 1 create an mc to load image No 2.
Directly above it on layer 2 have an mc load image No 1.
On Layer 3 create a mask layer to mask layer 2.
In the mask layer create a movie clip mask that starts by showing all the photo on layer 2, then have it tween until it hides layer 2 (photo1) thus revealing layer 1 (photo2) below it.
At the end of the mask tween, have layer 2 load photo2 and layer 1 load photo3 and the tween rewind to frame1.
Continue this sequence as often as required.
You will need to set up a timing routine to stop themovie between tweens.
You might be able to use a text file to input the totalPhotos value variable.
