Hi Lee. You've already done it. If you use a font that has that character you can use it. If you are worried the end user does not have the font then you can embed the font in your project. Ryan -Original Message- From: Lee Goldschmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: lingo-l How to add a

I just did a little test and the mui xtra does not seem to be shockwave safe. That is, I could not get it to work in Shockwave. The download if needed option was not available. I think this is the test of whether or not an xtra is Shockwave safe or not. Ryan [To remove yourself from this

Hi Pranav. For testing purposes the MU server will kick instances of the same user name, but only from the same IP. If two users try to use the same user name from different IP addresses then I believe that the second user gets an "Invalid User ID" error. Ryan -Original Message- From:

I don't think so. If you have Explorer set as your default browser then director will open Explorer on a gotoNetPage call. If you have Netscape set as your default browser then director will open Netscape on a gotoNetPage call. We are talking about the default browser, not the default email

Hi Kerry. I have found the easiest way to using streaming SWA over the net is to first use Insert - Media Element - Shockwave Audio. I link this to a "dummy" file and then dynamically change this cast member attributes (URL), as opposed to creating a new SWA object from scratch. This allows

Re: lingo-l FileXtra vs. FileIO

2000-12-08 Thread Ryan Smith
Hi Conrad. FileIO and FileXtra can't really be compared as such. The two Xtras perform very different but complimentary operations. FileIO is used to open, read and write to text files. FileXtra is used to perform a number of File related operations such as listing available drives, checking

Hi Kerry. Some of this can be done with Aftershock. It can do all your Javascript for shockwave detection, opening the installer page if you don't have it. It comes with Dir 7, although I'm not sure if it comes with D8. Depending on your JavaScript ability you can modify the code produced by

Hi Karina. For you "Download if needed" problem, you need to let Director know how your networking works. Under File - Preferences - Network you need to fill in your proxy settings manually. Your network administrator should be able to tell you these settings. Ryan [To remove yourself from
