Editing 3D Thumbnail Galleries
Posted by admin in 3D, ActionScript 3, Flash, Tutorials
This post shall give you a quick overview for editing 3D thumbnail galleries.
- Download the source file .zip from flashmo.com (for example; 3D Curve Wall)
- Extract it into a folder.
- Default thumbnail width and height 140×105 pixels can be changed in .fla source file “actions” layer. You can edit it from actions panel (press F9). Adobe Flash CS3 is required to edit the FLA file.
- Put your own thumbnail images into “thumbnails” folder.
- Edit the XML file (thumbnail_list_3.xml) to change filename, url, target, title, and description for all thumbnails.
- For changing mouse events, try playing around with p_rollover, p_rollout, and p_click functions.
Edit the below line for adjusting thumbnail width and height.
HTML:
-
var p:Plane = new Plane(bfm, 140, 105, 2, 2); // line no. 79 in flashmo_098_3d_curve_wall.fla
-
Plane(material:MaterialObject3D = null, width:Number = 0, height:Number = 0, segmentsW:Number = 0, segmentsH:Number = 0, initObject:Object = null)
This is how the XML file looks like.
XML:
-
<?xml version=“1.0″ encoding=“utf-8″?>
-
<thumbnails>
-
<thumbnail filename=“flashmo_096_3d_cylinder_box.jpg” url=“http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_096_3d_cylinder_box” target=“_blank”
-
title=“Item No. 1 (096 3d cylinder box)”
-
description=“3D Cylinder Box, Thumbnail Gallery powered by Papervision3D and ActionScript 3″ />
-
<thumbnail filename=“flashmo_095_3d_thumbnail_box.jpg” url=“http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_095_3d_thumbnail_box” target=“_blank”
-
title=“Item No. 2 (095 3d thumbnail box)”
-
description=“3D Thumbnail Box, Thumbnail Gallery powered by Papervision3D and ActionScript 3″ />
-
<thumbnail filename=“flashmo_094_spiral_carousel_xml.jpg” url=“http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_094_spiral_carousel_xml” target=“_blank”
-
title=“Item No. 3 (094 spiral carousel xml)”
-
description=“Spiral Carousel using an external XML file. It is based on Lee Brimelow’s example which is powered by Papervision3D.” />

Greetings — I Need Help BAD !
I am using the; 122 _3d_curve_gallery
I need help with the following;
1. Is it possible to have LESS than 54 thumbnails in the gallery
2. When viewing the large photo, I would like to have a “Click to Enlarge” link. This will allow you to view the image in full screen – similar to many XML/JAVASCRIPT based photo gallerys – where the background is blacked out.
3. In the same large photo view, i would like to include text that reads: ” Click Image to go back to gallery”
IF ANYONE CAN HELP !!! I need this help ASAP to launch my website !!!!!

Hey admin i have a question about the 3d grid gallery, umm why does it keep comming up with TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null.
at flash.text::TextField/set text()
at Ladygagaimagegallery_fla::MainTimeline/p_click()
The thumbnails show up but the big picture dose not when i click on the thumbnails?
I love this template.
I’m using the 3d box as a section in my website and it works great the first time I load it, but the second time I click on the button to go to the gallery section the thumbnails don’t display properly. It looks like it’s loading something a second time and that causes this to happen, but I can’t identify the problem area.
Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

I seem to be having the same problem that some other people have had on here. I can get the 3d curve wall to work fine when tested in Flash CS4, test in browsers via Dreamweaver and in dreamweaver itself work just fine too. However when finally going live with it thumbnails are only displayed up to item 21. I have checked file names and extensions several times and found no discrepency. Can Admin or anyone else help with this?
here is how it appears live http://www.thepavementsolution.com/Project%20Gallery.html should be displaying three full rows of thumbnails
