the user clicks on the sprite that he/she want and drags it to the work area
the sprite is suppose to stay with the mouseLoc. If they move to fast the
sprite doesn't stay with the mouse but moves parallel with it (offset). Also

I want to be able to change the colour of my text hyperlinks in Director
cause, as useful as the standard blue is, it just ain't all that pretty.
My Director 7 Demystified book says that the html formatting of a
hyperlinked text member can be both tested and set (P.983). When I tested

Hi Luke,
I understand your point. But how about using 'actorList' and 'on
stepFrame' handler. It doesn't need 'if test' either. Are there any
reason you prefer 'ancestor' approach?

I got the behaviour down and tested it out - it worked fine
I also tried out the no-more-gaps string and that worked great too - i think

One rule of thumb to keep in mind regarding syntax. Don't mix dot syntax

Anyone who knows how to use dates in calculations.
I want to add a certain number of days to a date. Both "the date" and date() returns
strings which makes it quite complex to create a "date calculator of Your own.

Dear Peeps,
In my years as a Director developer I have experienced a lot of problems
when using sound under NT. Most recently, under NT 4.0, I have found that a
game we are developing seems to have sound playback problems (using
MacroMix) both when authoring and from the web.
Our shitty Windows
Sam,
I've had many sound related issues with windows (95,98,NT).
What format are you importing your sound files as? I've had alot of success
with aiff's.
Also, having several media players on one windows box seems to agggrivate these
issues.

Fellow Director Users,
Having some trouble. Have wave files in my movie that contain cue points. I
am using LINGO to test to see if the cue point is reached and if it is the
movie continues. These cue points all work fine in the authoring mode. The
minute I save this movie in the Shockwave
The sound files are SWAs as converted from WAVs using Dircetor. I have used
AIFFs before to good effect now you mention it but SWAs should be cool I
would have thought? The quality of them is rubbish and the file size very
small!
Any ideas?
Sam.
I don´t exactly know what you mean, but I have a problem like this before
summer. I had set cue points in a qt file and it works fine when look at it
on the computer from harddisk, but when i burn them it was lost. So what
happens was that the qt file lost the preload function in the text track
I am creating a pencil tool using the draw command. What I have done works,
but the problem I am having is if you move the mouse to fast then you get
dotted lines. Anyone know how I came make this work so that you will not
get dotted lines, or maybe there is a better way than using the Draw
or maybe there is a better way than using the Draw command.
Try using a sprite for your pencil tip, setting its loc to mathch the
mouseLoc, vanish the cursor, and set the pencil tip's trails on off with
mouse clicks.

If you haven't done this - try putting your .dir on the server

Actually Kerry it is a little more complicated than that. The DSWMedia

Only affects your box, the enduser generally isn't sitting on your machine.
However if the enduser is brilliant than they might know that they can do
the same on any box. So it definitely isn't limited to a development
machine, anyone anywhere can do it without a hitch. Except Mac users don't

Well, I'm not Irv, but yes, that is a Mac thing. The line
