[RESOLVED] 50%alpha, onRollOver+onRelease=100%alpha

I've been trying to code this so the thumbnails are at 50% alpha. Then when you rollover or click on the thumbnail they go to 100% alpha. The thumbnail that has been clicked on should stay at 100% to indicate that it is presently selected.

I've tried everything but can't seem to get it. What am I missing?

Code:

---

function callThumbs() {
        _root.createEmptyMovieClip("container_mc",_root.getNextHighestDepth());
        container_mc._x = _root.gallery_x;
        container_mc._y = _root.gallery_y;
        container_mc._alpha = 50;

---

Code:

---

preloader.onLoadComplete = function(target) {
                        new Tween(target, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, .5, true);
                        target.my_txt.removeTextField();
                        target.onRelease = function() {
                                callFullImage(this._name);
                        };

                        target.onRollOver = function() {
                                this._alpha = 200;
                        };

                        target.onRollOut = function() {
                                this._alpha = 100;
                        };

I've attached the .fla and thumbs to look at

Code:

---

var picked:MovieClip = undefined;
function callThumbs() {
        _root.createEmptyMovieClip("container_mc",_root.getNextHighestDepth());
        container_mc._x = _root.gallery_x;
        container_mc._y = _root.gallery_y;
        container_mc._alpha = 50;
        var clipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
        var preloader = new Object();
        clipLoader.addListener(preloader);
        for (i=0; i<myImagesTotal; i++) {
                thumbURL = myImages[i].attributes.thumb_url;
                myThumb_mc = container_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(i, container_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
                myThumb_mc._x = _root.thumb_width*i;
                clipLoader.loadClip(+thumbURL,myThumb_mc);
                preloader.onLoadStart = function(target) {
                        target.createTextField("my_txt",target.getNextHighestDepth(),0,0,100,20);
                        target.my_txt.selectable = false;
                };
                preloader.onLoadProgress = function(target, loadedBytes, totalBytes) {
                        target.my_txt.text = Math.floor((loadedBytes/totalBytes)*100);
                };
                preloader.onLoadComplete = function(target) {
                        new Tween(target, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, .5, true);
                        target.my_txt.removeTextField();
                        target.onRelease = function() {
                                callFullImage(this._name);
                                picked._alpha = 100;
                                picked = this;
                        };
                        target.onRollOver = function() {
                                this._alpha = 200;
                        };
                        target.onRollOut = function() {
                                if (this != picked) {
                                        this._alpha = 100;
                                }
                        };
                };
        }
}

Dawsonk. I cannot thank you enough for your help here. One last detail. The 1st image loads on enter but the 1st thumbnail doesn't go to 100% alpha to show that it is selected.

Code:

---

preloader.onLoadComplete = function(target) {
        if (target._name == "0") {
                new Tween(target, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 200, .5, true);
                picked = target;
        } else {
                new Tween(target, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, .5, true);
        }
        target.my_txt.removeTextField();
        target.onRelease = function() {
                callFullImage(this._name);
                picked._alpha = 100;
                picked = this;
        };
        target.onRollOver = function() {
                this._alpha = 200;
        };
        target.onRollOut = function() {
                if (this != picked) {
                        this._alpha = 100;
                }
        };
}

Perfect! Thank you very much for that.

For anyone who is interested: to prevent the thumbnail from being clicked again (if already selected) add the following:

Code:

---

target.onRelease = function() {
      if (this != picked) {      //added
            callFullImage(this._name);
            picked._alpha = 100;
            picked = this;
      }  //added
};
