Help on scripting...

[Evil Pumpkin]

Hi!! I'm an Italian Boy and I'm new here...so I have some problems...
Can I use animatedLayers for Togglebuttons??
I tried to use an animatedLayer that opens when I move over on it and under it a standard togglebutton but if I set ghost="0" I can't click on the button below and if i set it to "1" the layer won't animate with OnEnterArea Function....:(
Can someone help me?!?:confused:
thank in advance!:)

Use ghost="1" on the animated layer and use mouse events from the button to start/stop/reverse the animation.

If you need something more descriptive, tell me and I'll be glad to help.

its not an animated layer, it is a group that is simply activated when the toggle button is pressed and then the script moves it.

I take the script(for the buttons) from boxor and modify it. now it is:

Function StartAnimation(AnimatedLayer l, int start, int end, int speed);

Class AnimatedLayer AnimatedLayerHint;
Global Layout Main;
Global AnimatedLayerHint Play;

System.onScriptLoaded() {
Main = getContainer("Main").getLayout("normal");
Play = Main.getObject("Button.Play");
}

Play.onLeftButtonUp(int x, int y) {
gotoFrame(6);
system.Play();
}

Play.onLeftButtonDown(int x, int y) {
gotoFrame(6);
}

Play.onLeaveArea() {
StartAnimation(Prev, getcurframe(), 0, 6);
Stat.setText("...");
}

For my problem I'll post something more tonight...;)
thanksss

Oooops...I forgot the function:


// Functions

StartAnimation(AnimatedLayer l, int start, int end, int speed) {
l.stop();
l.setStartFrame(start);
l.setEndFrame(end);
l.setSpeed(speed);
l.setAutoReplay(0);
l.play();
}
:D :D

when the AL stops i can see the button but i can't click on it and turn On/Off...:(
if I set the ghost="1" the AL doesn't animate...
What can I do?!?!:confused: :confused:

[mikekantor]

animate the AL inside the script by using onEnterArea() and onLeaveArea() on the togglebutton.
