Re: FLASH: Changing variables on the fly...

[Randy Kato]

Ken,


Not sure what exactly you're trying to accomplish but the two examples you gave

are fairly easy.


Change var based on MC coords:


on (press) {

    myVar = myMC._x;

}


Change var based on number of clicks:


on (press) {

    myVar = myVar++;

}


Why can you only put one action into each button? You should be able to put

pages and pages of script into a button action. Maybe I'm not understanding

correctly.


HTH,

Randy
