    Keeping the mouse cursor moving

    Hey everyone, I'm working on a program that involves rotating a model based on the movement of the mouse. My problem is that the model stops rotating when the mouse hits the edge of the screen. Is there a way around this? I was asked not to use drag-to-rotate, and I tried using _mouse.mouseH =...

    Creating a file name out of a textInput text property

    Yeah, I tried simply changing the name for the fileio xtra, and it worked fine. Director must of just been having its own issue for some reason.

    Creating a file name out of a textInput text property

    Awesome, that did it. Thank you. I was having some trouble before, because even though the sprite is #6 in the cast list, it's somehow sprite(1). Does that number just come from the amount of sprites available in the entire cast instead of every cast member? I ran into a different problem now...

    Creating a file name out of a textInput text property

    So this just got kind of strange. Thank you for the help, first of all. I tried that and it worked on a different project I was testing it on. The problem is, in that project I had two textInputs, and it worked on one and not the other. The first textInput had the text property set to the...

    Creating a file name out of a textInput text property

    Yeah, sorry. That was actually a typo. I already had it set to outputFileName = the moviePath & partIdStr & ".txt" Here's a post I made on another forum explaining my problem a little bit better: ------ In my project I have a textInput show up at the beginning of the movie named...

    Creating a file name out of a textInput text property

    I'm trying to create a file tracking the rotation of a 3D model. So far the model rotates, tracks the rotation, and writes the rotation correctly. The problem is that I can only get Director to write the file name using a set value. For example, this is the current piece of the script that I'm...

    file I/O problem

    So I just came across the reason behind the problem with the button. The button's eventPassMode was set to #passNever instead of #passAlways. Just thought I'd share that in case someone else ran into the same situation as me in the future. -Anthony

    file I/O problem

    I just tried putting the same script to start after an exitFrame message, and that worked fine. Does that help to figure out what the problem is? -Anthony

    file I/O problem

    Using the message window the script worked perfectly. I then went and inserted the exact script into the on mouseUp script for the button and it still won't open the dialog box. I'm really confused as to what's causing this. -Anthony

    file I/O problem

    Yeah, I have it. I got the listing of the fileIO parameters and properties when I typed that in. -Anthony

    file I/O problem

    Hey Kenneth, thanks for the reply. I tried inserting your code into the button's script and I still have the same problem. I can't get any dialog to pop up. Any ideas what's causing this? Thanks again, Anthony

    file I/O problem

    Hey everyone, I've been trying to use the fileio Xtra for a project I'm working on, but I'm running into a problem. I'm attempting to simply get the windows "open" dialog box to open for now, but I can't even do that for some reason. The script I modified from a more in-depth script is: on...

    Creating output file of 3D motion

    Thanks, I've been checking out the info there and I think it is exactly what I've needed. I had another question, and I figured I could just put it here to keep the main thread listings a little bit cleaner. Does Director mx 2004 ship with trackball support? If so, how difficult is it to work...

    Creating output file of 3D motion

    Hey everyone, I've been recently getting myself familiar with Director for a project at work. I have a strong background in 3D modeling and animation, but I'm still getting my feet wet in the area of interactive media. For this project I simply need to let the user rotate a 3-Dimensional model...
