lingo-l MX and Flash?
As I contemplate the large expenditure for a new director version I only have one major question. Will or does the MX version handle flash with a bit more ease than in previous versions. I have written a CD-ROM in director and many cast members are in fact made in flash. So, I have found that when using more and more flash elements though out my presentations the quality in performance does in fact grow to be less and less. Please tell me that someone from macromedia has foreseen this major flaw!

Sure. Alert Whatever Or if you want more control, look at either: 1) Buddy Api xtra (baMsgBox()) 2) Mui xtra (really great control but a bit complicated) 3) using a movie in a window.

Or maybe, depending on what you want, a text or field member whose text gets changed by code. something happens, either an event or a calculation member(MessageBox).text = Hey! Something happened the message will stay there until you change it. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sure.

Re: lingo-l MX and Flash?
Will or does the MX version handle flash with a bit more ease than in previous versions. So, I have found that when using more and more flash elements though out my presentations the quality in performance does in fact grow to be less and less. Macromedia have tightened and extended the connection between Flash and Director in MX. You have, for example, pretty much full access to ActionScript, even without having a Flash sprite on stage. I don't think it's going to run much faster, though. The problem always has been, and still is, that Director launches an instance of the Flash Asset Xtra for every Flash sprite. Twenty Flash sprites, 20 instances of the Xtra gobbling up memory, CPU cycles, and resources. There are a few ways of optimizing, if you need a lot of Flash sprites. - Make the sprites DTS when possible - Make the sprites static (in the score, not with Lingo) until they're needed - Set the idleHandlerPeriod to 0 - Don't make the Flash sprites run in lockstep with Director - If you can, slow the Director frame rate way down--say, 2-4 fps Cordially, Kerry Thompson [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]).

The MUI Xtra offers this kind of functionality, including a Yes/No/Cancel style box. You can look for information on it at macromedia.com, or consult an article on it at director-online.com. On both sites use the search term mui dialog to get results. -- WthmO [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]).
