Title: Pan and Zoom action script
Post by: hidden on January 11, 2009, 02:15:00 AM

Hello,
I'm trying to make a pan and zoom action in Flash and can't seem to find it anywhere even though it's a very common feature. Here is a link to what I mean.

I guess you would call it an interactive slideshow.
I would like for the user to be able to use the controls to pan and zoom a large image within the window by clicking and draging or using buttoms below the screen.
If someone could help me with this, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Bob

There is a FREE zoom tool at this page:  h**p://www.zoomify.com/    for personal or commercial without payment.  Looks like what you would like to do!!!  I might give it a try too.

I have used the Panorama Factory to stitch images together and add HOT SPOTS to zoom in and out of images.

Perfect for realestate agents showing properties.

Thank you for the information! I'll give it a try and report back. I'm trying to find out how to do it in Flash but I can't seem to find out how. Thanks again.

Depending on WHICH flash program you use, there are templates you can use to help sometimes.

The freebie I sent you to look at creates a FLASH file for you using a standard set of templates (you just add in the images necessary).
