FLASH: Generator: Replacing symbols

[Andrew Vester]

Hi there, I have just started using Generator (Beta3) again and I have

some questions about replacing symbols.

I can't seem to be able to replace a button using a text file.

Is it possible to replace symbols of the 'Button' type? I can only get

it to work with 'Graphic' & 'Movie Clips'.

I have also noticed that the symbol that I am trying to replace has to

be of the same type as the 'replacer'.

I can't for example take a 'Graphic' symbol and replace it with a

'Button' symbol.

I want to be able to set up maybe 20 buttons and then update them by my

text file, if a buttonis not available then I use a blank symbol to hide

it so it doesn't appear.

Does anyone have any ideas? Would a database be easier?

I have also noticed that you don't need the 'FlashGenerator' flag when

specifying your URL, am I correct in saying this?

For example in earlier release you would specify your URl as follows:

	http://yourserver/FlashGenerator/sample.swt (where

FlashGenerator is not a directory but a flag)

Now you would just use:

	http://yourserver/sample.swt


Is this correct?


Thanks for your time.

Regards

Andrew
