Here is a simple routine you can use for any hot spot you want to set up as a pushbutton that when clicked will looked depressed for a couple seconds. I will add more features to it when l can actually get to a computer instead of typing from a phone.
I haven't tested this but I know it's close. I will fix if it isn't correct. I just don't have access to a computer until Sunday.
1. Create an image of a button
2. Create a copy of the button from step 1 and make it looked pressed in. The filename should be the same as the other image but with "_2" at the end of the name.
3. Create 1 hotspot and display the button.
4. Create a variant variable called, "imgfile"
4. Call the subroutine below in this hotspot.
In your hotspot call the subroutine shown below.
Example:
Put the following in the Advanced tab:
- Code: Select all
imgfile = "btn.jpg"
pushButton()
Now put the following subroutine in the advanced procedures tab.
- Code: Select all
Sub pushButton ()
Dim imgfile2
'Example: If imgfile="btn.jpg" then imgfile2="btn_2.jpg"
Imgfile2 = left (imgfile, len (imgfile)-6) & "_2" & right (imgfile, 4)
Action.LoadAPicture hotspot (Action.GetHotspotNumber), imgfile2
Action.CreateTimedEvent 2, "Action.LoadAPicture hotspot (Action.GetHotspotNumber), imgfile", false
End Sub
I'll add a video How-To later and add a link at the end of this post.
