Hi everybody.
I have this problem...
I intend to implement a Back Button for my multimedia cd rom.
It's made with Director 8 and i want to add some smart features in it.
I searched the web for available tips and tricks and i came up with this
code:
property spriteNum
global gBackList, gBack
on prepareFrame me
if gBack = void then set gBack = false
if gBackList = void then set gBackList = []
if spriteNum < 1 then
--framescript
set totalBacks = count(gBackList)
if gBack = false then
--did not come from back button
if totalBacks > 0 then
set lastEntry = getAt(gBackList, totalBacks)
else
set lastEntry = ["", 0]
end if
if lastEntry <> [the moviePath & the movieName, the frame] then
--not thecurrent frame, add tothe list
add gBackList, [the moviePath & the movieName, the frame]
end if
else
--came from the back button. Remove last entry
deleteAt(gBackList, totalBacks)
set gBack = false
end if
end if
end
on mouseUp me
if gBack = void then set gBack = false
if gBackList = void then set gBackList = []
if spriteNum >= 1 then
--is a button
if count(gBackList) > 1 then
--there are back locations
set gBack = true
set destination = getAt(gBackList, count(gBackList) - 1)
if the moviePath & the movieName = getAt(destination, 1) then
--same movie
go to frame getAt(destination, 2)
else
--different movie
go to frame getAt(destination, 2) of movie getAt(destination, 1)
end if
end if
end if
end
on getBehaviorDescription me
return "Drop this behavior on the framescript of each frame you want ot be
included in the back button history. Also drop it on the back button and
the script does the rest."
end
The author of this code doesn't give much explanation of how to use it ...
It is quite obvious that this script works only if in your movie you have
only buttons and the script...
Does anyone has the script for all cases....
I am asking much here i know...!!!
But if this someone has the solution to my problem
it would be very appreciated if he/she shares it with me...
Any recomentations?
Thanks for your time....
