flash and director movies

[Joan]

Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible to control a Director movie from a Flash menu inside the same Director movie? Should I use the tellTarget command or this will not work?

Thanks in advance for your help

yes it is possible

from memory (and this was a long time ago) you can make your nav in flash and give your flash buttons actions like

on(release){
getURL("director actions here");
}

or something like that anyway...

[CyanBlue]

Simple example...

on (release)
{
getURL("lingo: openThis " add pathDelimiter add PathName add FileName); // this openThis being a custom behavior within the Director
getURL("lingo: cursor -1");
}

on (rollOver)
{
getURL("lingo: cursor 280");
}

on (rollOut)
{
getURL("lingo: cursor -1");
}HTH

And how about otherwise? - I need to send messages from director to flash.

Thanks in advance
