    Default Loop for a period of time.

    Hello everyone.

    I am making a auto play slide show of about 50 images.

    How can i make director loop on a image for say 10 seconds before moving on?

    I have tried pausing the movie for 10 seconds but thats no good because my roll over buttons stop functioning.

    Plz help me, thanks,

    Default Re: Loop for a period of time.

    property pTargetTime

    on beginSprite
    pTargetTime = the timer + (10 * 60)
    end beginSprite

    on exitFrame
    if pTargetTime >= the timer then
    go do something
    else
    go to the frame
    end if
    end exitFrame

    change the 10 in the beginSprite handler to the amount of secs you want
    director to loop for and copy the script into your frame script channel
