KEYGUARD..inventory..

Postby mercedes » Mon Mar 16, 2009 1:16 pm

HI there...:)

Not sure if this has been asked before..

Can KeyGuard be used with AM's inventory...

I assume not..but I thought I would ask..


Peace

I don't use AM's inventory, I made one of my own, but I don't see why KeyGuard wouldn't be compatible.

I think you just need to detect when the inventory is displayed or not, and define your hotspots dynamically (i.e. clear update the hotspot definitions when the inventory becomes visible and when it disappears).

Hi there...:)

yes i made one of my own too...but in some of my frames..i want Am's inventory..and i'm not sure how to do it so it knows when its detected sort of thing...

I thought to define the hotspots in the Global procedures as opposed to frames...

Not sure how to start it..like "detect inventory" sort of thing..

Would it be like any other hotspot...? that's what im wondering..

Thx..for response..:)

Hopefully someone can guide me here a bit..

I think you should indeed define them in the procedures. Now you just need to be able to call this procedure when the inventory pops and goes.

Also, KeyGuard defines tagged zones rather than Hotspots. My point is, I don't know if AM's inventory works with hotspots, I think it doesn't, but KeyGuard allows you to trigger events when your mouse hovers in and out of the zones you defined, so you should find some ways to do whatever it is you want to do within the "KeyGuard_MouseEntersHotSpot" and "KeyGuard_MouseLeavesHotSpot" procedures.

Since I did not use AM's inventory, I'm affraid that's all I can tell you.

Good luck with your project !
