Hi,
I am using the XMLParser Xtra within a director 8.5 movie, and I'm
outputting the parsed XML to a lingo list with the makeList command.
This produces large multi dimensional lists that I have to work with,
it's a pain to bug fix, but that's not the current issue.
Although I will always be 99
Hi Tim,
Recursion is the answer to this. Here is a sample of how this works.
--movie handler
on nestedListRetrieval aList, aPath
c = aList.count
if aPath[1] > c then return void
tValue = aList[aPath[1]]
if aPath.count > 1 then
aPath.deleteAt(1)
tResult = nestedListRetrieval(tValue,
Thanks Rob, I presumed that this would be the only answer, was just
hoping for something less intensive.
Thanks again

Hi Ti
These were lingo animations, not actual video yes?
Unless your animations are strictly time-based, I would imagine small
differences in each of the animations would take longer/shorter to
render, with director adapting the framerate accordingly. Does this even

In theory, you could use midi clock to sync the 2 or more compute
Use one computer and a Dual Head graphics card ..is my advice!
Judging by the spec of the machines they should run happily 2 mpeg

Hi Emmy,
Installing the beta version of the new shockwave plugin, my experience was
fairly different from what you describe. First of all, both the
registration dialog and shockwave.com redirect were gone (which would be
great!). Second, the installation process required a reboot.
Thoughts?

Hi Adam,
Can you provide some information on how you did the installation? Typically,
we only ask you to register once, so if the reg key that indicates you have
done this exists, you won't see registration again (e.g. when you update
versions).
Rebooting can occur if there is a browser with an a

Hi Kerry,
When I want to change the color of a sprite I use sprite(x).color = rgb
(xx, xx, xx)
And I don't have any problems. That said I just tried your .foreColor
approach on a vector graphic and saw its colour change, I didn't do all
your dynamic stuff just put it on the score, ran the movie

I have previously registered so your description explains the absent
