Dear list,
Director 8.5 running on Windows 98 SE target machines PC medium CD ROM
My project consists of a multi movie information system with pages
containing mixed data types I have 3 other MIAWs all type 3: an always
visible general purpose tool bar, an intermittent back and forth bar as
required and a toolbox bar containing among other things a volume control.
My problem is that calling the toolbox miaw from the tool bar instantly
kills the sound in the movie playing on the stage. This defeats the purpose
of calling the volume control :)!
I have tried switching modal properties to no avail.
the toolbar is loaded in the first movie after the stub with
gNavigation=window"Navigation"
gNavigation.filename= "navigation.dir"
gNavigation.windowType=3
gNavigation.modal=false
gNavigation.visible=false
window("Navigation").rect=rect(the stageRight-226,the stageTop+1,the
stageRight-4,the stagetop+58)
window("Navigation").movetofront()
and then each movie initiates it with
window("Navigation").movetofront()
window("Navigation").visible=true
the tool box is called thus from the toolbar
on mouseup me
global gtoolbox
gtoolbox=window"toolbox"
gtoolbox.filename= "toolbox.dir"
gtoolbox.windowType=3
gtoolbox.modal=false
gtoolbox.visible=true
end mouseup me
my hair lays in piles on the floor
Cordially yours
Andy smith
