lingo-l numbering sprites

Hi I have a movie in which i generate sprites through a script. Now the problem is like this : There is one main loop that generates these sprites say from 1 to 10 and then there are subloops that generate more sprites which i was numbering like 11 12 13 ...and so on

Hi, Jean. Unfortunately, you can´t add the collision modifier to a camera. Here´s something you can do: 1) Create a dummy (sphere, for example). 2) Apply the collision modifier to the sphere. 3) Move the sphere (not the camera) 4) Make the camera child of the sphere. There are several ways for

Victor, Try setting the sprite's locZ property. Layering on stage doesn't really occur based on sprite channel numbers, rather the layering order is determined by each sprite's locZ value (the locZ value of a sprite defaults to the sprite's channel number so by default, it appears as if sprite

RE: lingo-l bring to front a sprite on rollover

I'd like to add this to Tom's note: Stage layering DOES occur based on sprite channels. Just placing a sprite into a channel auto-magically sets the locZ equal to the channel number unless you use Lingo to specify a different locZ. Using the Lingo property provides an override on the
