Re: lingo-l filmloop + script?
This sounds like a simple question, but I can't think of a way around this. I have an animation of a bird that follows a curved path. I want to put it into a single frame, so the normal way to do this would be to use a film loop. However, I am using a script on the bird to make it flap it's wings (membernum = membernum + 1). If I make a film loop out of it, the script won't work. Is there any way to retain the curved path animation AND the script, all in ONE frame? Maybe you could make a filmloop of a filmloop. One for the bird flapping it's wings and another to make it follow the curved path. Then you wouldn't need the script. -- Cole [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email lingo-l@penworks.com (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Re: lingo-l Project with video, Flash or Director?
I have settled on using QuickTime exclusively for even Windows-only projects. It is reliable across many different Windows configurations ...much better than Windows Media. In the past, I've downloaded the full install for Windows and included it on the CD-ROM. My stub projector looks for the QuickTime version and, if not present or current enough, it offers to launch the QuickTime installer for them. rantI really like QuickTime but am moving away from it because of the strict licensing policies. Every so often they declare that a version may no longer be distributed. You get about a 6 month window to use up your stock, then you must remaster with the latest installers. Then they're always fiddling with their logo which renders our printed materials obsolete. For awhile I would always include the latest QuickTime installers even if it wasn't required so I could use QT3mix on problematic machines. Then the word from down from Apple that we couldn't do this because the product did not really _require_ QuickTime®. Now I have to remaster those CDs as we run out./rant I'm becoming very interested in using FLV. -- Cole [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email lingo-l@penworks.com (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Re: lingo-l Project with video, Flash or Director?
I think it's always the case that you're only really licensed to include the most recent installer, but I can't believe that part of the license requires that you retrieve existing stock when there's a new installer released. I also don't think that Apple ask to see your order books, and that you could press a second run of some CDs without having to tell them about it. It does sound unreasonable, but here's the licensing agreement from Apple if you happen to be _really_ bored (all 19 pages!). Page 4 has the 2 sections that rub me the wrong way: http://developer.apple.com/softwarelicensing/agreements/pdf/qt6freehwsda.pdf Section 2.4, Provision of Samples (This were they require that you submit two complete units so they can inspect the software and packaging, like the old MWM requirements. This isn't so bad. But read on...) Section 2.5, New Versions of QuickTime Software (Skip this if legalese makes you queasy!) ... In the event that Apple makes a new version of the Apple Software available separately under different terms and conditions, upon written request from Apple, Licensee agrees that, within six (6) months of receipt of such request, Licesee will cease distribution of prior versions of QuickTime Software with Licesee Products and will upgrade its products to include the newly released QuickTime Software. Here the hitch: since we always provide our 2 sample units, they know what we're shipping. Our office manager has shown me these written requests. Now I understand why they'd want to control what gets distributed, I just find it annoying to have to keep revisiting old material. I'm now inclined to just give the user a link to apple's website, rather than remastering old cds that use QuickTime. -- Cole [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email lingo-l@penworks.com (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

lingo-l hiding some globals from clearglobals
Hi, I'm working on a project that needs to go movie some existing_movie. The problem is that this existing_movie calls clearglobals a couple times and tromps on my global space. I could get access to existing_movie and toss a reference to gMySpecialPlist into a temp variable and restore it after clearglobals. But ideally, I'd like a solution that does not touch the code in existing_movie. I think the timeOutList might be a safe place (I don't think that gets zapped). I was also considering an off screen MIAW to hold some of my props in static movie script, but I think a timeout object would be cleaner.

lingo-l no keyDown when commandDown? - MacOSX
