FLASH: Gettimer anyone???

[MPL Christopher Jester]

Hello everyone,

I have been working on the gettimer command using some ideas that Cheri has 

given (Thanks Cheri) The problem I am having now is trying to clear the  frame 

count after it has been played back. What I am doing is I have a movie clip 

that is initiated once the record button is pressed. From there people will be 

able to choose different sounds to go along with the movie clip. Once the clip 

has stopped the user can hit the playback button and it will replay the 

animation with their sounds. Now at this point it will play through and record 

once but if I try doing the whole process again I get the animation but no 

sound. I need to reset the frame to the beginning. Does anyone know how this 

process is done?


Thanks

Jester




(-------Code for timer----)


Set Variable: "newtime" = gettimer

Set Variable: "elapsed" = (newtime-/:startplay)

Set Variable: "n" = 0

Loop While (n <= /:counter)

      Set Variable: "whenthis" = eval("/:when"&n)

      Set Variable: "next" = n+1

      Set Variable: "whennext" = eval("/:when"&next)

      If (elapsed > whenthis AND elapsed < whennext)

            If (/:count <= /timer:n)

                  Set Variable: "/:count" = /:count+1

                  Begin Tell Target ("/Sounds")

                        Go to and Play (eval("/:sound" & /timer:n))

                  End Tell Target

            End If

      End If

      Set Variable: "n" = n+1

End Loop





(------Code for playback button--------)


On (Release)

      Begin Tell Target ("/Animation")

            Go to and Play ("anima.start")

      End Tell Target

End On

On (Release)

      Set Variable: "startplay" = gettimer

      Begin Tell Target ("timer")

            Go to and Play (2)

      End Tell Target

End On
