quit when escape

[scobba webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

Unfortunately, that script

on startMovie
set the exitLock = TRUE
end

also disables the X on the right of the Windows title bar, thereby confusing users who expect that clicking the X will close the application.

Is there any way to fix that, i.e. make the X disappear. I tried running without a Windows title bar but introduced another problem: users cannot use the bar to move the Director window around on the their screen [or minimize it].

Thanks...Stephen

I got the quitMsg xtra from MediaMacros.com, and it works great. The readme
file has an example where it alerts on quitMsg. So I replaced the alert
commamd with a buddyAPI message so that the user can change his mind about
quiting. But it doesn't do anything. Here is the my code:

on startMovie

set the exitLock = true

startQuitMsg()

end



on quitMsg

findIt = baMsgBox("Are you sure you want to quit?", "Quit?", "YesNo",
"Question", 1)

if findIt = "Yes" then

quit

else

nothing

end if

end



on stopMovie

closeQuitMsg()

end

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane,

Instead of :

If Findit=Yes

try to use :

If Findit=1

cuz most xtras have buttons named by cardinal number.... hope it helps...

I see what you are saying, however, I don't even recieve the message. I
click on the X on the title bar, and nothing happens. I have to close the
program from the Windows Task Manager.
