Hi all,

I bought a license for a 3D Carousel component HERE. What I'm trying to do with it is load movie clips when the user clicks an image... using a lightbox effect that I built in Flash.

Everything is working fine except that when the movie clip loads on top of the site, I want the buttons of the carousel component to be disabled so the user can't load another movie until the one active is closed.

I know how to disable a button, which I'm assuming would work here, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the button instance names out of the component to disable them. The site only give the following code advice:


var event1:Object = new Object();
Carousel.addEventListener("thumbPressed", event1);
event1.thumbPressed = function (obj:Object) {
trace (obj.id);
}


Does anyone know if I could modify this event to give me button instance names instead of obj.id? Or, failing that... if there is a way to just disable the whole damn thing? I cannot get any help from the creator, and I'm on a very tight deadline...

Any help is most appreciated!
