dumb question about setVolume

[dzr]

I have a button that when you rollover it changes graphics and makes a sound (named "buzz" in library). All works fine but I can't seem to lower the volume. It's too loud.

I have tried a couple things but this seems most logical (but it doesn't work) --

on(rollover){
buzz.setVolume(50);
}

sorry to always post such dumb questions!! :-\

are you making a sound object.... is the sounds identifier "buzz" or just the name in the library.... are you exporting for AS?

I'm a php geek and horrible in Flash so I apologize...

I imported the sound to the library and then dragged it into the "over" in the button edit screen. It works fine but the volume is very loud. I don't have any sound editing software so I was hoping to do it in the flash interface.

thanks...

try this:

1. In the library Right click the sound and select linkage.
2. Select Export for ActionScript
3. Leave the identifier as buzz
4. in the first frame of your movie, do this:
var BuzzSound = new Sound();
BuzzSound.setVolume(50);
5. republish movie....


try that...
