FLASH: intelligent buttons

[Mike S. Krischker]

	To reply to the questions about the 'intelligent buttons'

	at http://sounds.muinar.com/sounds.htm


	Directory listing at the right side of the screen consists

	of buttons which are embedded in 20 independent movie clips.


	Movie clips are made of three frames with labels 'Empty',

	'Button' and 'High'.


	When the mcs are triggered, a frame action checks whether the

	loaded variables are empty or contain a value (if-statement). 

	Depending on this it jumps to label 'Empty' (which shows no 

	graphics at all) or 'Button'.


	This is to avoid empty clickable space, which occurs if you only 

	use buttons and there are empty variables.


	Only the frame with label 'Button' shows a real button.


	The 'High' frame of course is used for clicked items and consists 

	only of a static graphic.


	Please be aware that the movie is in beta and not all directories

	contain sounds so far. This will change in a few days, when the

	whole Flash Sound project will go online at

	http://sounds.muinar.com
