Re: FLASH: Flash communicating with Director?

[Phil Ward]

Thanks, I have sorted the launching another Director movie using getURL and

writing a handler in the Director movie, works great.


Trying to get the keyboard actions passed through Director is a whole other

matter though.


The keyboard navigation works fine in the Flash SWF, but when embedded in a

Director shell these events cease to work, I assume that they are not being

passed through Director.


Anyone any ideas?


p.s. Thanks for the tip about the xtra, I have always had an Xtras folder as

I don't trust the embeded xtra saved with a projector.


Regards
