I'm having problems with messages.
I want to have an oval graphic fade out to 0 width and height, relocate to a new position and then fade in with diamMax width and height at the new location.
And I want all this to happen while another graphic is moving on the screen. For this reason, all loops are executed with "send" messages in xx time.
I have tried the following:
local diamMax
on mouseUp
send "mouseUP" to grc "myGraphic"
--The above command starts "myGraphic" in motion.
--That motion is executed with {"send ..... in 10 millisec" and
--is suppose to continue while the rest of this script is running.put the width of me into diamMax
--I want the following doFadeOut to complete execution before "doFadeIn" starts.
doFadeOut diamMax
--The following wait doesn't do what I want.
--It halts everything since the message is received at the
--first execution of doFadeOut.
wait until "doFadeOut" is not in the pendingMessages --What do I need to do here?
set the loc of me to 200,200
doFadeIn 0
end mouseUP
on doFadeOut r set the width of me to r set the height of me to r if r =0 then exit doFadeOut send "doFadeOut r-1" to me in 1 tick end doFadeOut
on doFadeIn r set the width of me to r set the height of me to r if r = diamMax then exit doFadeIn send "doFadeIn r+1" to me in 1 tick end doFadeIn
I guess I could insert a wait diamMax ticks (plus something for good measure). But there must be a way of detecting when doFadOut has finished and then moving on.
