I know exactly what you mean about visuals! To understand Director's scripting hierarchy I imagine a little postal worker with a piece of mail running around in a corporation asking if the piece of mail(with a script in it) is for this or that "big muckety-muck". It really helps! Especially when th

Hi Warren, Just read your sections on lists and OOP from your book. The examples you used helped it click! I'm a visual thinker, never was good in logic or algebra and your examples are excellent for people like me! You can bet I'm going to add your book to my Director library. Thanks! Chris > Fr

Re: totally stumped

You can even do this easier via gDatabase[#date] = "Today" gDatabase[#name] = "LingoSlingers Or in one line via gDatabase = [#date: Today, #name: "Lingoslingers"] Course I'd be careful using 'lingo' words as props, ie #date (date object) and "name" (member prop) On Monday, June 30, 2003, at 04

Hi Chris Here's some code for you to play with in an empty movie. Hopefully it shows how you can set your #qualifications property up and be able to access and set the data inside of it. Just paste this into a movie script (watch for line breaks) global gDatabase on startMovie gDatabase = [:]

Re: need to attach a behavior

specifically, make sure you create an instance of the script you're attaching to the sprite like so: y = script("stuff").new() sprite(newChannel).scriptInstanceList.add(y) You can download a sample movie which creates a sprite on the fly and then uses scriptInstanceList here: http://www.evanade
