Volume slider for global sound? 1

[MidiRipper]

Is it possible to create a volume slider for all sounds globally. Meaning, instead of having it control a sound that you specify. But controlling all sounds no matter when they are loaded, etc.

Hi MidiRipper.

I found a way that works.. I think it's a bug but I have used it in over 30 multimedia presentations.

Import a wav or mp3 with no sound.. Just total silence.
In the library, right click on it and go to "Linkage" and click Export this symbol. Give it an identifier name. Dont put this on the timeline anywhere.

Now on frame 1 put:
starting_volume=100;
n = new Sound();
n.attachSound("identifierName"
n.setVolume(starting_volume);
n.start(0,9999);


Now if you change the volume of "n" based on a slider it will change all global sounds. You can test this by importing your silent sound and a song. Put the song on any frame with these actions still on frame 1 and change the value of "starting_volume". It will change the volume of the song also. If this is confusing let me know. I am bad at explaining things.. If you need it, I will make a .Fla for you to copy.
