FLASH: Wishlist thought..

[Unger, Russell]

This somewhat just occurred to me, and I apologize if this has been included

already.


What if, in Flash 4 there could be something that will enable us to have

truly smart "Smart" buttons.


ie:  Click on a button and it has a command within it's frame that says

something to the effect of:


"On MouseUp

	Play

		Proceed to next command in this line of the score"


What that would do is, if I click on a button, proceed along the score

(perhaps fading everything away on the stage) and then go to a separate

section, complete a separate command, etc. as defined by the command in that

very same line.


In a nutshell, I could click on a "Movies" section, the entire screen would

fade away, then, the command would tell Flash to go to the "Movies" section

and play.


Anyway, that just seems a bit easier than the way we've got to do it now.  


If we wanted to get complex, we could have a command that would perhaps

control the individual line:


"on MouseUp

	Set ChannelAlpha=100%

		Play

			Proceed to next command in this line of the score"


Okay, sorry for the ramble.  Hope that all makes sense and could actually be

"do-able".


Thanks,


Russell E. Unger
