Dear List,
Last week, I made a presentation to the Minnesota Director User Group on an
advanced printing and
print preview alternative for Director. The methodology writes dynamic PDF
files that are then
printed and/or previewed using Integration New Media's Impressario xtra. The
PDF
OK so I'm finally moving up to Director MX 2004.
I'm updating a huge project which was released three years ago and
was authored in Director 8.5. The project is choking on old MIAW
code. Terms like windowType and titleVisible.
I see there is new code in MX04 which accomplishes all I could
Just set the scriptExecutionStyle=9 somewhere before the legacy
code. If you are likely to start using any of the new lingo for
MX04, just set the scriptExecutionStyle=10 before the new code.
You can also just set it in the message window and the property will
be saved with the movie.

Great! Many thanks.

I'm finding that out right now. Nothing seems to make the old code
work properly. Even this:
the scriptExecutionStyle = 9
windowObj.windowType = 49
I did try setting it in the message window, many times. And it did
stick. At least according to the message window:
-- Welcome to Director --
put the scriptExecutionStyle
-- 9
But it still chokes on the old style MIAW lingo. Bummer

Try setting the SES in the message window
