Bug

[Mindslave]

I found a bug,

When I turn on transparent mode panorama can't load swf files into self...
When I turn off transparent then all work is good and swf's will be shown but
when I need set upper level div layout I need turn on transparent mode... What is wrong?

so when I remove
so.addParam("wmode","transparent");
then panaroma will be work correct but up menu will be down level layout...

I am no expert but what you are doing is what I am trying to do.
So are those birds video clips in .flv format?
Why not make the menu a .swf as well?
What format is the menu now?

no birds are modelt in 3ds max rendered in png images and imported in flash as a movieclip placed it in panorama as .swf and gave it a path in xml coding with timer and stuff...

the menu is html format and its a big site so i cant make it swf format because in other pages of the site the menu will look different if i use html there...

Hi,

Yes i found some bugs too when using WMODE, like unclickable hotspots etc... particurlarly under firefox.

Hope it will be fixed for the next version!

Hi Mindslave.

You can fix it by replacing wmode from "transparent" to "opaque". Your code should be like this:

var so = new SWFObject("your_file_here.swf", "pano", "948", "606", "9", "#000000");
so.addVariable("xml_file","/path/your_xml_here.xml");
so.addParam("allowFullScreen","true");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","sameDomain");

// +-----------------------------
// NOTE: wmode is set to opaque
so.addParam("wmode","opaque");

so.write("flashContent");

This way your menu will be on top of your flash content (menu z-index must be more than 0) and your <box> content will be shown as usual.
But I'm not sure if this trick works on all browsers. I tested it with Firefox 2.0 and IE 6.

Good luck. :)

Yes, some actions in Flash work wrong if Flash movie is in transparent mode (opaque mode is also have it's own problems, but it can be a solution in this case naturally). I can't fix it inside the player, believe Adobe can fix it in future versions of the plugin.
