apologies for that I stupidly used i twice in the function and have done some other tinkering - I never used this function for a finished product and didn't get tested extensively here is a newer version: on GetFiles(vFolderList) --a recursive function which goes through all of the

lingo-l Import compressed images.

Hi, Does anybody know if it is possible to import a compressed image format (like JPG) in director (not transforming to a bitmap, so keeping the compression intact)? Or does Director always convert to bitmap when importing compressed filetypes? Greetz, Tom van Gemert Trimedia Interactive

Re: lingo-l Import compressed images.

Director will expand internally to full format. It does not keep them in memory in compressed form. At 09:38 AM 3/24/03, Tom van Gemert wrote: Hi, Does anybody know if it is possible to import a compressed image format (like JPG) in director (not transforming to a bitmap, so keeping the

Hi James... Thanks for posting that lingo. The itemUpdate method is very handy. I noticed one fundamental difference in your code from what I wrote, and I wanted to get your (or anyone else's) opinion on it. You create a new instance of the MUI xtra from within the handler creating the dialog

lingo-l Embedded fonts

I am using a font (univers) that I need to embed into a project that I am doing. I went to Insert--Media Elements--Fonts. I selected the font that I needed and deleted the * from the font name. When I went back to my stage, all the fonts are now a different face. I've never had this problem

RE: lingo-l Embedded fonts

AFAIKm the * in the font name when you import is how you identify it as the imported font, so when you go to choose the font for a particular member, if you choose the version with the * in the name, you are choosing the imported one, so it should be used even on systems that don't have it.

RE: lingo-l Embedded fonts

The * is appended to distinguish between the embedded font and any font with the same name (less the *) on the system. If you delete the * Director might be confused as to which font to use--the font on the system or the embedded font. There's nothing special about the asterisk, or its

Re: lingo-l Embedded fonts

I think you need to be careful doing this. IIRC, if you open the font cast member again, Director tosses the name you previously gave it and sets it back to the original font name followed by the *. Leaving your text using a non-existant font (missing). The safest thing to do is accept the
