well, i was reading about imaging lingo and i find some cool functions but now i have a problem:

In the first frame I'm using:

on exitFrame
newBitmap = new(#Bitmap )
newBitmap.image = member("picture").image.crop(rect(0,0,50,50))
newBitmap.name = "slice01"
sprite(1).member = member("slice01")
End

That works... But when the movie goes to the next frame (this frame has one "go to the frame") the picture disappears. I think that's because i don't have sprites on the score.. If i add a cast member to the sprite(1) the movie works fine....

What can i do?

I need to cut the bitmap on one thousand parts to move each one with a random function, so i don't wanna add 1000 cast members to the stage to switch it with the picture parts....

Is the image.crop the right method to cut the picture? Some tip?

Excuse my bad english.

thanks

I would suggest doing just what you did. Put a dummy member in channel 1,
maybe a 10x10 pixel black square. Otherwise you can puppet the channel to
make the image persist.

hey Craig thanks

imaging lingo and puppetSprit works for me!...

do you know how many sprites can i have on Director?
i don't have members on the score, all is created using lingo and the sprite's limit is 150... can i add more?

[Word of Mouth Productions]

That's set in the preferences. I think sprite preferences. It might be
virtually unlimited but you can find out with some trial and error.
