    newBrWindow with Flash button

    frozenpeas, good call, but your method produced the same results. I saw in faq250-697 that the HTML file that contains the Flash File must have the following code: ************************** <HEAD> <TITLE>Your Title Goes Here</TITLE> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot;> <!-- function...

    newBrWindow with Flash button

    Does anyone have an answer on how to dictate the size of the new window that Flash 5 will understand? I have this in the Object Actions window ********************************** on (press) { getURL (&quot;javascript:MM_openBrWindow ('archMenu.htm', 'width=310, height=170, top=165...

    newBrWindow with Flash button

    Thanks David! Sorry it took me so long to get back. I was dying of the flu. Now I tried your code, and it looks beautiful and clean, and logical, but alas, it didn't work! Now what? ironworks

    newBrWindow with Flash button

    I am trying to make a flash button do what I've always done with JavaScript, open a new browser window of a specific dimension with an .htm of my choice. This is it in JS: //Script for window to open another window <script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;> <!-- function...

    masks vs. clipping groups

    You are absolutely the best!!! Yes! I can't believe that there is only ONE correct method by which to do this, but you found it! Thanks a million!

    masks vs. clipping groups

    Yes, when I created the object on the tenth frame, then tweened backwards to the scaled-down object in the first frame. Otherwise, my method was to create the circle on frame one, add a keyframe at frame 10, then right click any frame between and hit Create Motion Tween. That gives me a dotted...

    masks vs. clipping groups

    I re-did it, and it doesn't work. Apparently, you're right. A mask will not take a symbol, as the Test Movie shows. but it also will not allow me to tween the object that is the mask WITHOUT it being a symbol. Hmmm..... very confused. What are you doing that is working that I'm not doing...

    masks vs. clipping groups

    Okay. That's exactly how I created the first one with one difference: I could not scale>tween the object in the mask layer until I had changed that object in Frame 1 to a Symbol. Only then would it tween to Frame 10. I then right-clicked that layer and made it a mask. Yes, it does work...

    masks vs. clipping groups

    It isn't working for me, even when I change the background color. It's supposed to reveal the little explosion from center to out. Do you suppose something is disfunctional with my flash player? I tried re-downloading just the player, and the same problem. ??? ironworks

    Hey, great! Now, what if I absolutely need the background to be white? ironworks

    masks vs. clipping groups

    Sorry, Idnewbie, I still don't get it. Mine is actually way simpler. Where can I post a 168kb .fla file with only two sample layers so you can see how simple my problem is? I'm sure I can do this easily in Flash 4! I don't understand why it's so difficult in Flash 5...

    masks vs. clipping groups

    Hi. Thanks for the instant response. Clipping group is also a PS feature, but I was thinking of it in the 3DStudioMax sense, which I think is pretty similar. I tried your version number one, but when I go to Test Movie (ctrl+alt+enter), although all layers are locked as per instructions, it is...

    masks vs. clipping groups

    firstly, what do you call a clipping group in Flash? secondly, an animated mask eventually reveals an image it is linked to. how does one create a clipping group to HIDE an image in Flash?
