It's certainly possible to generate bits on the fly, but a more common approach is to make a half-dozen background captions of different sizes, and choose among them by the number of characters in the field. (Such art will compress well.) One core concept here is to minimize runtime calculations, whether generating bitmaps procedurally, or rendering vectors at runtime. It's certainly not impossible to take those paths, but it's generally considered easier to just swap among a number of pre-rendered balloons of various sizes. jd John Dowdell, Macromedia Tech Support, San Francisco CA US Search technotes: http://www.macromedia.com/support/search/ Offlist email risks capture by the spam filters.

CD Works in 98 but not in 2000/NT?!
This is the strangest problem I've ever had. I have a stub projector loading a 'main' shockwave file in a /shock/ directory off the main. Locally, the cd plays fine on NT4/2000/98 etc. When I burn to a disc, the NT & 2000 machines will not run the program (it looks like the stub loads, but never gets to the main.dcr, just "hangs" with a background.) I can escape out. This project works perfectly on "subst" drives locally, it's only when I burn to disc. I've tried burning on 98 & 2000-- on Easy CD 3 and Easy CD 4-- all with the same result-- has anyone ever run into this before?!

Re: Imaging Lingo 2 response1
Sorry for my slow response, but I'm on holiday and I try to keep away from my laptop ;) Allow me to mangle in again, You assign the image of your cast members to a var - this does NOT create a reference to the member - so this does NOT manipulate the member in question in any way. All you have to do is reassign the data to the image of the member you want to change when you have completed your manipulation. You could also directly manipulate the image without intermediate variable - but it is best to do the former if you do a lot of stuff because vars are faster. This way you can also control when the image is updated. So - after your changes - simply do this: member(mnum1).image = mnum1 One last remark; try to use more descriptive names for your vars - and use seperate vars for like for instance your membernums and your images. That way you can use them later on.

RE: scrollbar problem
My Experience with that is that it does not work. The ScrollDragger of that behavior reorients itself only at Beginsprite and in case someone uses the arrows or the dragger. Therefore you either have to manually break up the sprite where you intend to swap the contents of that member OR (untested!)

mpeg on a dell laptop x-post
Okay list this will probably be difficult to diagnose as I do not have all of the specs on the clients machine. but this is the basic problem. We have compressed a 9 minute movie into a 320x240 mpeg-1. I am using the Direct-Media Xtra from Tabuliero on the pc side. All the video has to do is autoplay from his dell laptop's cd-rom drive so he can show it in his PR meetings ( no buttons, interactivity, flash, animation, 3-d or anything else of the sort). Just the video on black. According to him what is happening is that a black Bar flashes and jumps around in the bottom half of the video playback area, this happens through at least 2.5 minutes of the presentation. He also notes that it is most severe in portions of the video with a light background. I searched through Direct-L and Lingo-l's archives and did not come across this specific problem. What I did find was that some dell's apparently have difficulty with DirectShow if the "graphics/hardware/acceleration" is enabled. Could this be the source of the problem? I know that the video plays without incident on several of the desktops here not to mention our Compaq Presario laptop with 32 mb of ram. Any help or thoughts greatly appreciated. Sincerely; Eva C.

This may be too little too late, but it doesn't seem like you should
have to worry about associations. How are you trying to play the file
with WMP? You shouldn't have to import any video files; just drop the
ActiveX control into a sprite and use
wmp = sprite(yourActiveXSprite)
wmp.filename = yourVideoPath
That'll start playing the file. However, if you use something like
wmp = member("MyWMPActiveXControl") -- <-- don't use this
wmp.filename = yourVideoPath
That would replace the ActiveX castmember with a QuickTime castmember,
if the file located at is an MPG that you play on Mac.
Could this have been what was happening?

Re: Acrobat Reader v5 does not play off CD-ROM
Hi there, I am just writing to see whether you still have problems ith getting Acrobat Reader to play off the CD-ROM. Because I am still working on what seems to be a hick-up in the actual Xtra (now on version 2.1): I can't get it to see the Acrbat Reader version 4.0.0.0 I got in the CD folder on my CD-R. I have deinstalled all acrobat versions from my dev. PC the only one left is the one on the CD in the CD folder (and in a 'CD' folder on the local hard drive). The PDF Xtra finds the Reader and Version in authoring mode (put pdf_acrobatInfo()) but fails to find it as a projector. What is your current state of affairs here.

RE: External casts?????
> Just click "OK for all movies" and this will have the same effect as > clicking "Adjust" for all movies. Not exactly true. I found in D6.5 that that doesn't work, and sometimes makes things worse. One of the biggest problems you will have with this is if any of your cast members use a palette in the shared cast, whether those members are in the shared cast, an internal cast, or any other cast. Once you change the order of graphics, those members will be palette swapped during runtime (even in 16/24/32 bit monitor mod) A horrible bug. The workaround I came up with to fix this nastiness is to group your graphics together in their casts by palette, and on startMovie (yes, each an every movie on startMovie) call this script: -- This is D6.5 code - convert at will on fixPalette x,y,z set myPalette = member "palette" of castLib "foo" repeat with mem = x to y if the type of member mem of castLib z = #bitmap then set the palette of member mem of castLib z to myPalette end if end repeat end You can make this more dynamic if you have a bunch of different palettes, but if you didn't use Debabelizer to make super palettes, and all your 8 bit graphics have their own unique palettes, well, you're fooked and I recommend Debabelizing over trying to fix all of the graphics with code. This is how you would call the script to reset the palette of members 12 through 24 of a castlib called "shared". fixPalette, 12, 24, "shared" Note that this only seems to effect palettes in shared casts that have ever needed to be "Adjust"ed (even once!).

Live Video footage in Director
Hi everyone,
VERY VERY challenging: I am trying to record live
video footage (web camera) from inside director. I've
used the videosprite xtra, but it does not offer the
possibility to record. I also tried the Vcap xtra,
which allows you to record, but the AVI file I create
does not open. I get this error message: "There is an
error in the source file" ... or something. In order
to record I attach the following script:
on mouseup me
VCapInit()
put vcaperror()
vcapSetCaptureFileName("C:\MYVIDEO.AVI")
put vcaperror()
vcapAllocFile(5000)
put vcaperror()
vcapSetCapLimitByTime(TRUE)
put vcaperror()
vcapSetCapMustPressOK(False)
put vcaperror()
vcapSetCapTimeLimit(2 * 60)
put vcaperror()
vcapCaptureVideo()
put vcaperror()
end

help in advance,
