something like the gallery here

?

I did something like this last year for a project.

Just have two superimposed Image controls (same x,y or top left coordinates in an absolute layout).

Set showEffect and hideEffect for them to Fade.

Set their source and visibility alternatively: image1 visible while image 2 invisible and vice-versa.

<mx:Image id="image1"

   top="10"

   left="10"

   showEffect="Fade"

   hideEffect="Fade" />

<mx:Image id="image2"

   top="10"

   left="10"

   showEffect="Fade"

   hideEffect="Fade" />

Hi again,

 

Still looking for an answer 'Grizzzzzzzzzz'! regards aktell

to make a gallery like that, you'll need to store all the image locations in an array,

start off by loading the first item of the array into an Image component's source (All images will need to be the same size for the best results, else things will look abit scabby)

on the next button click, simply load the next array item into the image source, and the opposite for the back button. Make use of the inbuilt flex "fade" transition and volia! You're pretty much done.

have a go yourself from what i've said, i've pretty much covered it all. If you're still having problems pop back and i'll fix you up with a basic example to get you started
