RE: [flasher] Making a menu

[Paul Willoughby]

First off, the equality operator is '==' not '='. You don't really need a

variable or equality operator for this as you can just check the movieclip

property directly:


on (release) {

if (menu._visible) {

setProperty ("menu", _visible, 0);

} else {

setProperty ("menu", _visible, 1);

}

}
