Hi Ellen,

The problem is that the MIAW issues a forget command on itself. There is a
technote on macromedia explaining this, it is number 14069.

Basically, you need to let the stage issue the forget command. You can for
example use a global that you set to true in your Miaw mouseup script. Then
in the stage you check the global, if it is true you issue the forget
command and set the global to false...

Ämne: <lingo-l> movie crashes


Hello Lists,

     Our company is working on an elearning tool on financial area and this
movie contains "textmarkers" (our boss call it this)somewhat like a
hypertext that when the user clicks on it, it will open another window
giving more details/explanations of that text. There are so many of these.
The problem now is, when the user opens textmarkers and then close it
without finishing the movie and/or opens so many textmarkers, the movie
crashes.  I'm not an expert with Lingo, but is this a problem with memory
management? this is what i think also but as i have said i'm not an expert
on this. In our textmarker movies i have this script attach to Close button
and one movie script which closes if the user clicks on the X button of the
window.

on mouseUp
  window(name of window).forget()
end

---movie script
on closeWindow
   window(name of window).forget()
end

        I really needed your explanation and help on this matter.


Thank you
ellen
