I believe you are referring to figure 2-3 on  page 48.  My behaviors are 
different. I have three, as I told you earlier. Change cursor, rollover and 
go to marker.

When  I selected the rollover, the settings list came out, similar to the 
bottom half of figure 2-3.

The strangest thing is that when I compared it to a button which worked 
properly,  the settings here are identical.

I've checked everything, including the other two behaviors and everything 
is the same.

Do I still change my settings list?


Otherwise the behavior has been hard-coded in some way (probably). Those 
can be harder to modify because you don't necessarily know exactly where 
and how things are being modified on the Stage by the code.

If it was such , what can I do?

  I am beginning to understand why I must not do this. Thank you, I will 
heed your advice.



As you on the subject of  the PI, I would like to ask a few questions.

Under bitmap, my Palette is at system-mac. But I am on a PC. Does not the 
system recognize this? Would it make any difference?

The compression for a bitmap  should it be for a movie setting? Or JPEG? 
Under what circumstances does one choose movie settings over the other?


On page 58, I am not sure how to create the movie.

You indicate that I need to create a #text sprite. From  page 24, I 
understand this to be A  in the toolbox on the left.

To create this  #text sprite, I drag this to the stage. Do I need to make 
amendments to this sprite?

  I note that here the PI contains only four items:
i member, A text, 3D Extruder and Cast.

I click on A text to  change its'  framing pop-up to scrolling. I 
then  dragged  the behaviour

Get Net Text onto this empty text member. I entered the url as stated and 
connected to the internet.

When I played the movie, I did not see any text on stage.


I then  checked  the text  sprite.  It  was empty.


Where is my mistake?

Thanks

Noelle
