Re: lingo-l beginSprite script
Hi, At 11:14 AM 5/10/2002 -0500, you wrote: What other messages do you mean? When a movie stops playing (because of a quit or halt command), endSprite events on any sprites in the current frame will execute, after which a stopMovie event is generated. If there is a stopMovie handler defined, that will then run. Messages like MouseUp. Could they be used in this context? I don't know what you're asking here. :( Are you referring to whether mouseUp handlers can be written into behaviors? Sorry, no, I believe that mouseUp handlers may be written into behaviors. What I mean is that when a movie stops playing (because of a halt or quit command), things like on mouseUp will also not execute? In fact every handler written subsequently will not execute except for endSprite events? By the way, how do I define a stopMovie handler? In the same way you define any othe regular movie script handler, such as startMovie, or custom global scripts. You open a script window and do something like this: on stopMovie ALERT Quitting! END stopMovie I opened a script window to do the above, and wrote the script. Could it be written as a channel 0 script? Anyway, the playhead head just went right past it without stopping. Nothing appeared in the message window. What is supposed to happen? What is the purpose of using alert? On page 221, it is written: 'However using a halt command in a projector is not a good idea, because with versions prior to 8.5, halt did not call the stopMovie handler. This is very important to know ,because you will often use stopMovie to save progress files, restore settings you have changed, and so on. ' I thought there was a save as command to do this? That affects the faules in authortime only. Sorry, but what do you mean? If you're using FileIO or setPref to keep track of a user's score (as an example), you will want to save that on your own using custom handlers you've written for doing so. Why would you want to do that? You also mentioned on page 220 that quit would not work in a Shockwave movie, so we shouldn't be using it? Don't use it in Shockwave and expect it to work, no. It won't quit the browser; it will simply stop movie playback. So what should be used? That's why in that case it might make more sense to do a two-behavior approach. The volume button behavior would be the sending behavior; and to the QuickTime sprite you would attach another behavior that receives. That way you'd be less likely to get script errors. This is still not object oriented programming? Yes, it is. It is? Actually the purpose of OOP is to create objects and use them? No, the purpose of OOP is to use objects' natural encapsulation ability to protect your program from being more crash-prone, and to (essentially) create mini-programs that, once oyu've put them all together, generate a meta-program. Here I do not understand. What do you mean by objects natural encapsulation ability? Do you mean it is innate? But why do we need to create objects? There is no other way? Properly written object code is very stable, very robust. Parts of it can fail while the overall program continues to function. (Ideally none of it fails of course -- part of the object design is about error trapping and handling, and in fact a *lot* of the work an object does is nothing but looking for and squashing errors.) There are lots of non-PPO languages out there and you don't have to use OOP design to make Director programs either, but it is definitely the wave of the future. How does an object look for and squash errors? What are non-PPO languages? Are you saying that the trend is to start using OOP for Director programs? What this is is abstraction. The more you abstract data from interface, the harder it is to break things. How do I abstact data from interface? Is this what you mean on page 226? So it becomes easier to use? What is the difference between a behavior and a parent script? Parent scripts instantiate into variables, in more or less the same way an Xtra operates; while behaviors are attached to sprites and therefore Score dependent. (In general!) You mean you create parent scripts that create object code from variables? Is this no different then from a movie script? When you write in general do you mean that sometimes the reverse happens? Yet you wrote in another email that It's not the *only* way to do it -- some Xtras don't require instantiation, for instance -- but it's relatively common. I sorry, but what do you mean? On page 390, Whats more, the pizza shop is now truly scalable. Were not talking about a couple dozen pizzas here; in fact you could place thousands of orders here in a single application session for this program, and not run out of memory. How does the program not run out of memory? Is this because of the use of variables? I notice something .
Re: lingo-l Three-behavior communication model
Hi, At 01:14 PM 5/9/2002 -0500, you wrote: So here it is. This is another take on the volume button behavior for QuickTime audio. There are three behaviors here. One is attached to the volume button; one is attached to the target QuikckTime audio sprite(s); the third is a framescript behavior and goes into channel 0. This third behavior is the intermediary that prevents direct communication amongst behaviors and thus forestalls script error occurrences. Need the intermediary always be a frame script? As you can see this is relatively intricate, but it's got the distinct advantage of being pretty flexible. You can actually have as many QT sprites as you want in a frame, How do I have as many QT sprites as I want in a frame? Does not a frame contain only 1 sprite? I am confused. and you can change their channel numbers at will, and as long as the settings for the behaviors in the PI are correct, everything should work in a completely error-free way. All you have to do once these behaviors are made is attach the QT one to your QT sprites, and name each one however you want to; then attach the volume one to the volume buttons, specifying the name of the QT sprite whose volume is to be adjusted (this would be the name you already gave to the QT sprite). Then put the channel 0 script into the frame script channel, hit play, and off you go. May I understand what you are writing in these scripts? -- For the volume buttons PROPERTY pyMyDirection PROPERTY psTargetName on beginSprite me me.InitializeMyProps() END beginSprite What is the purpose of me.InitializeMyProps()? on mouseUp me if psTargetName = no_sprite then put No QT sprite has been set for behavior (me.spriteNum) exit end if sendSprite ( 0, #AdjustVolume, pyMyDirection, psTargetName ) END mouseUp If there is no QT sprite, then where is No QT sprite has been set for behavior placed? What is the meaning of sendSprite here? on InitializeMyProps me if voidP ( pyMyDirection) then pyMyDirection = #down end if if voidP ( psTargetName ) then psTargetName = no_sprite end if END InitializeMyProps I presume this is your custom behavior? Why did you initialize it in on beginSprite me? The purpose of void is to prevent the use of a sprite other than QT? on getPropertyDescriptionList me lProps = [:] lProps.addProp( #psTargetName, [#default: name, #format: #string,\ #comment: Name of target sprite?] ) lProps.addProp( #pyMyDirection, [#default: #down, #format: #symbol,\ #comment: Adjust sound down or up? #range: \ [#down, #up] ] ) return lProps END getPropertyDescriptionList -- For the QuickTime sprites PROPERTY psMyName on beginSprite me me.InitializeMyProps() END beginSprite on InitializeMyProps me if voidP ( psMyName ) then psMyName = no_sprite_ (me.spriteNum) end if END InitializeMyProps Should there be two here?

Re: lingo-l Changing resolution
You know the resolution from the desktoprectlist. You would want to be sure that you resize the same monitor that the stage is going to appear on. Probably (the desktoprectlist)[1]. Are you sure that director can resize the desktop? It can change the colordepth, and no, you don't want to do that. Do it with your own Lingo, that way you can make a note of the original setting, and politely set it back. I'm guessing that you mean 800/600/16 bit and not 800/600/16 colors? Some Mac video boards didn't do 16 bit (or 15 bit), they went straight from 256 colors up to millions, with nothing in between. If the intention is to make sure that there's a nice color range, why not first check if they're in millions, and if they are don't mess with the color at all. I mean, why lower the quality just for the sake of it? Direct OS Xtra has a dosSetDisplay function that may do the resolution change. In general I think that resizing the desktop is an impolite thing to do, but I don't know anyone who would not allow that while playing Quake. -- [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

lingo-l Changing resolution
Hello all-- A client has asked me to automatically change the user's display to 800 x 600 x 16 for a game. The Mac is giving me pause. It's pretty easy on Windows--I use Buddy to do all the checking, and restore the original settings. Buddy doesn't have those calls on the Mac, though. As far as I can tell, I can't even find out the current resolution. As far as I can tell, the only way to change resolution is through the options when I'm building the projector. So, a couple questions: - Is there another way, like Buddy on Windows? - If I let Director change the resolution, does it reset it when it exits? - Generally, how do Mac users feel about a game resetting their resolution? I know I'd blow my stack if a word processor did it, but I think games are expected to behave differently.

Re: lingo-l Changing resolution
- Generally, how do Mac users feel about a game resetting their resolution? I know I'd blow my stack if a word processor did it, but I think games are expected to behave differently. In my humble experience, Mac users will mind very little if a game changes their resolution - no matter whether it is UT or Tetris - and also if your game zooms/scales to fill the entire screen. As long as it´s a fun game anyway... Many semi-large games on the Mac do the scaling thing in fullscreen mode - have a look at for example Wingnut or Deimos Rising. Sometimes there is a menu command for playing in a window, like in Caesar III, which would scale the stage back to 100% (normal) size, or for changing stage size afterwards. ((If you were to change the desktop size, which you apparently don´t intend to do, on the Mac there would mostly be some kind of message or dialog box before the game fills the screen, sometimes with a popup list choice of resolutions/color depths (eg. Wingnut), sometimes with an exit/quit button if they don´t want to change resolution for some reason. This is a scheme you might adapt for your stage scaling also)) [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
