The object model has changed and some lingo has permanently changed around MIAWs and Timeouts. It's not TOO big a hassle to update that code. The amazing part is that they 'snuck' the scriptExecutionStyle feature in and that it works at all! roymeo At 04:43 PM 8/12/2005, you wrote: I did tr

MIAW lingo still acts up in 10 if you use windowtype or other commands that have changed. Just do a find and replace in your code. Far faster and easier. ;) -Chuck -- Chuck Neal CEO, MediaMacros, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mediamacros.com

Correction. It's the modal of window that doesn't work in classic mac MX 2004 projectors: set the modal of "some window" = TRUE #modal Script Error. Continue? And they're apparently broken in classic mac projectors made with MX 2004. -- Cole at least I believe I was unable to get som

Great! Many thanks. OK so I'm finally moving up to Director MX 2004. I'm updating a huge project which was released three years ago and was authored in Director 8.5. The project is choking on old MIAW code. Terms like "windowType" and "titleVisible". I see there is new code in MX04 which

Just set "the scriptExecutionStyle=9" somewhere before the legacy code. If you are likely to start using any of the new lingo for MX04, just set "the scriptExecutionStyle=10" before the new code. You can also just set it in the message window and the property will be saved with the movie. -
