thanks bill, that was it, took a little while to troubleshoot but eventually discovered i needed to specify the path to the array i was building with the currentframe variable e.g.
on (release) {
if (_root.picHolder.navStack.length>1) {
recentFrame = _root.picHolder.navStack.pop()...
In my external swfs there is a back button that uses the _currentframe variable. This works fine when run on its own or even if I use the loadMovie command to load it directly.
However its loaded from a dropdown combo box and I use the createemptymovieclip function & load the external swf into...
figured it out! just needed to add a period!
loadMovie("./aninteresting.swf", "theClip209");
always something small!!
thx oldnewbie, appreciate ur interest :-)
thanks

Im using a dynamic text field and populate it with a variable and some standard text (e.g. message1 + "hope youre having a great day") however it cuts off some of the text - how can i get this field to resize to fit the text? thanks
thanks

I'm using the loadmovie to load a swf in the same folder e.g. loadmovie(\external.swf) etc and it works fine when i run the projector but not when it is a swf on a webpage - do i need to change the url (even though the external swfs are in the same folder as the main swf)?
thanks!!
thanks...
Just a ps to this subject - because the spell check only seems to work in story mode, it makes it flippin difficult to check the whole document.
I usually create the PDF, copy the text into Word & spell check there.
thanks

hi, ive followed the readme.txt & looked at the sample.fla but still cant seem to get my projecter exe to launch a pdf
in the first frame i have added:
#include "freeMX.as"
for the action button i have:
on (release) {
fmxExec("\Library\readme.pdf");
}
the readme.pdf...
thanks frozenpeas, that works great as a standalone projector exe but i cant seem to get that same button to work as swf file when launched from a web page.
any ideas why it would work as an exe but not a swf? thanks
