Subject: FLASH: Menu/Time Delay glitch
From: 2Nerotik

Hi,

Second time writing this, email prog crashed just before I could send...
many bad words coming to mind right now.

Ok, let's try this again.

What I did:
Each button has a Roll Over action which Resets the MC to a frame
with a stop action in it with all the buttons visible.

Each button also has a Roll Out action which sends the MC to the
Time Delay sequence which is set to 3 seconds.

If another button is not Rolled Over within that time the menu closes.

The submenu is also set up this way with the addition that the Main
Menu also gets closed if the mouse is moved out anywhere but back
to the main menu which then resets the Time Delay etc.

Problem:
Using John's TimeDelay to close a menu and submenu, submenu
Submenu won't close properly when closing main menu.

The problem seems to come in with the TimeDelay as this is where I put
the Tell Target to close the Main Menu MC, with out the Tell Target the
submenu closes properly but the main menu remains open, with the Tell
Target the Main Menu closes but the submenu closes but skips it's closing
sequence. In other words, it's open then it's not.

To see what I mean, Roll the mouse over the "Swinguistics" button then over to
the submenu then continue to the left off the submenu.

To see how it should close roll mouse over the "Swinguistics" button again only
this time move down to "Swing Music" and watch the submenu close.

The menu in context to the website is at
http://www.nisa.net/~2nerotik/index2.html
menu by itself is at http://www.nisa.net/~2nerotik/Menu.swf
Fla and Swf zipped up at http://www.nisa.net/~2nerotik/Menu.zip

Thanks for any help, now it's time for bed 2:30am and time I put this
problem away till
tomorrow.
