Re: FLASH: flash screensaver .... rollover to quit?

[Bryan Rieger]

I've created Flash based screen savers using MacSourcery's 'ScreenTime' and

this product works very well.

When you create the screensaver you have an option to set when the

screensaver quits - I'm not sure about Anysaver.

The other option is to send an FSCommand to the projector(.exe) telling it

to quit. You could either have it send the command on a rollover state,

(make an invisible button the size of the whole stage) or on the click of an

exit button, which would allow the user to move the mouse around the screen,

and it would only exit when the user clicked quit.


First preference would be to let the screensaver software handle the quit

function, if not embed it in Flash.

Hope this helps.
