Steven, here's your chance to become an awesome tester--why don't you try
it yourself? Here are some tips for testing on Windows.
- Quit all other programs
- Test a projector, not in the authoring environment
- Use ctrl-alt-delete to kill all background tasks except Explorer and Systray
I doubt it would make any difference, though, because the Lingo is
tokenized for runtime. Words like "to" and "frame" are there mostly to make
our code readable--they don't affect the runtime because they aren't
included in the tokens.
There might be a difference using a frame number--I don't know Director's
guts well enough to know if it's smart enough to resolve a marker into a
frame number.
Cordially,
