Transposing sound clips?

2000-09-22 Thread ScottYang

In hypercard, there is an option to transpose a single sound up and down a 
scale such as 

play "harpsichord"  "c d e f g a b"

is there a similar property in metacard instead of recording different notes 
for a single sound?

Strange behavior to stack...or corruption?

2000-09-09 Thread ScottYang

Well, it just happened last night...Somehow when I open up my stack via the 
metacard engine, instead of giving me the full menubar options, I just get 
"help" kinda like it when one opens up a stack without the metacard engine.   
What did I do?

Re: Strange behavior to stack...or corruption?

2000-09-09 Thread ScottYang

I'm going to answer my own question.  I almost thought I lost the entire 
stack!

When I did a group within group, boy , I was losing  my menubar, my message 
box, and the screen vertical height lost 50 pixels.  When I undid the group 
in the group, everything went back to normal.  Does metacard support group 
within group?

Directory function

2000-08-25 Thread ScottYang

seems like an easy thing, but not happening for me

put the files of directory "data" into fld "whatever"

Just want the filenames of all the files in the folder "data" to go inside 
field.  I get a "missing" error

YOu can't from Metacard, yet as I was told, but you can do this.  Use QT 
player 4 - professional and go to sound volume and adjust it there.  The 
volume of your QT movie will be lower now than the rest of your other sound, 
movie files.

PC icon?

2000-08-08 Thread ScottYang

Just wondering, seems like there is an easier way to design and change the 
icon of the standalone on the PC, but I don't know one.  The Mac process is 
pretty straight forwarrd.  Also, How do I change the icon for the PC side of 
the CD ROM itself?

Inks on the PC...Oh my my

2000-08-07 Thread ScottYang

Just when I thought everything was all set and done on the MAC side, the PC 
side is giving me a mild migraine.  The inks for transparency, blend, etc. 
works great on the Mac.  How do I replicate it on the PC side.  The only 
transparency I can make 100% are GIFs.  what about fields, bitmaps, blah blah 
blah!!!

File Path...cross platform and such

2000-06-24 Thread ScottYang

This seem so Simple I don't know what to make of it.  I noted in the Demo2.mc 
that the file path of graphics objects was just "demo/filename.jpg".  How was 
this done without having to do "Macintosh HD/Metacard folder/.  "

I'm stuck using...

"Macintosh HD/blahblah/blahlbah/blah.jpg"

Problem is, what if someone had "Mac HD" instead of "Macintosh HD" or on the 
PC side, "C:" or "D:" or "E:"

I would prefer just to reference to subfolders where the original stack sits 
instead of starting with "Macintosh HD"

I'm just at a point where I'm trying to burn a 200meg kids app, cross 
platform and am stuck with this difference in filename attribute.

color depth problem

2000-05-25 Thread ScottYang

I designed my stack in 16 bit on my Mac, but when the monitor is at 256 
color, the colors are pretty screwed up.  I was expecting the colors to be 
approximate and or just grainy.  I didn't expect to see psychedilic colors 
pop up.  Any clues?
