ok, i've given up and i'm now looking for help.
i have a swf running inside a dir8 movie. have a field to enter text
that is passed to the swf for display inside the swf when a director
button is clicked. i also have director setting the cursor to 200 (no
cursor) when it is over the swf sprite and it is also setting it 200
on idle. my problem occurs when you click inside the field to edit the
text, then click the button that sends the text to the swf, the cursor
is not set to 200 when it should be.
the flashing text cursor is still in the field after the button click.
how does one deselect the text field as active and return control back
to the rest of the movie?
what i think is happening is when you click the button to send the
text to the swf, which is as follows:
on mouseUp
showtime = member("entry").text
setVariable(sprite 1, "nextmovie", showtime)
end
the text field is still active, and not allowing the cursor to be
changed.
from my explanation, can anyone see what i'm missing here?
much TIA
