return in the frame

[Giuseppe]

Hi
I've a problem.
the game enter in the frame where is a texbox.
The texbox does not appear immediately.


The txtbox appear only when I click hotspot in another frame with variables= doc set to 1
When I click, the texbox appear and it's ok because in the frame proprieties I write: if doc=1 then ...simulatehotspostclick 14" (is hotspot with texbox)

The problem is When I return to that frame, the texbox appear.. There is a way to make it not appear when I return another time in the frame?

I know it won't help you a lot, but your frame looks fantastic!

Hi,

Skip the simulate hotspot workaround and use:

Text(4).visible = false

In the advanced properties of the fame, in the hotspot you want to click to make the text appear code like this

Text(4).visible = true

Good luck,

Why don't you just set the variable back to 0 when leaving the frame?

Because the first time the texbox must to appear. The second, third..time, don't must to appear.

The hotspot for return in the frame is the documents frame.

Okay, you beat me in posting repsone, check my solution above Combine it with a global variable...

"in the hotspot you want to click to make the text appear code like this"
this hotspot is in another frame.

If i understand you correctly..;

Text can't be de-activated from another frame..unless you use merging frames..i beleive..or perhaps a global variable.

You'll get a control element error..trying to from another frame..

I think one of the only things you can do is to disable the hotspot where the text appears..from within the same frame..

So once DOC = 1 you go to frame..click..and the text appears..
Then, disable it..in a hotspot in the same frame..text().visible = false

Or another way to go..use a transparent picture with text on it instead..

I hope this make sense..
