Thread: flash in director

  1. #1
    hey guys, i was wondering if anyone has any experience inserting flash into director---i'm using director to make a flash movie a projector file because i can control the background and toolbar etc., but once created my links don't work. Anyone ever run into this?

    thanks for you help

    Do you mean that your links to other webpages don't work?
    If so, this is a common problem. Some tutorials show a work around using Lingo, but I haven't found any succesful scripts. A simple solution, which I use, is to remove the links in FLash, leaving only the up, down, and over button states. Then in Director I drwa a vector box, that represents the "hot" area of the button, I put this box in a channel behind the flash movie so that it is invisible, then I the following lingo to that vector box:
    on mouseUp
    gotoNetPage "yourpage.html"
    end

    This is also a behavior that you can find in the behaviors pallette.

    This seems to be the best solution, since it is least likely to generate errors.

    I hope this helps.
