Hi All...
I'm trying to get my head around the idea of using repeated loop to
animate objects. These are probably pretty basic concepts, but I feel
I need to get some basic understanding on things such as interrupting
a loop, etc.
For example,
On a card there's a graphic object, a field and a button. The button
contains the following script:
on mouseUp
if cd fld 1 is "True" then
moveTheBall
put "false" into cd fld 1
else
put "True" into cd fld 1
end if
end mouseUp
on moveTheBall
--put the loc of grc 1 into tCurrentBallLoc
repeat 20
add 10 to item 2 of tCurrentBallLoc
move grc 1 to tCurrentBallLoc
wait 25 milliseconds
if cd fld 1 is "false" then
exit moveTheBall
end if
end repeat
end moveTheBall
This animates the graphic object however my means to interrupt the
loop don't quite cut it as the trigger doesn't get implemented until
after the command.
What would be the proper way to interrupt a repeat? Anybody of some
simple examples of animating objects via loops?
Thank you!
