Flash Applet & XML: Open link in same tab

[TheCrazyLexx]

Yes, I did look at SlideShowPro and it like this would be a good replacement for the flash applet.

What I'd need:
dimensions: 450x200px
transition: some kind of fade in - fade out effect
no captions
image preload

Is it possible to come up with a numbered menu (instead of arrows or pause icons) at the bottom like the one used in my example? The applet has a nice preview effect, which displays thumbnails of the selected menu point/picture.

Example

EDIT: Oh, and one more thing: Links should open in the same window ;-)

Oh, that look nice. How about a version without the black line at the bottom? Maybe just the numbers in a box and without the control icons left and right? Like in this example:

That's not possible using just the component controls.

You would have to create custom controls and link via ActionScript. If you want to download Flash and do that, be my guest. I'd be happy to help you. But i'm not in the business of simply creating things for people.

Oh I see - I just thought that the tool might come with a set of templates you just had to pick one from. Thanks anyway!

Nope. There are a lot of paramaters that can be changed pretty easily within the Flash 8 interface.

But to do anything major with this component you have to know ActionScript
