Hi all i hope someone can help me.
I am doing a project for a CD presentation, and im trying to do it as dynamic as possible. I have a few buttons on the main interface, and the text for the buttons are loading from a txt file on the CD. What i want to do is have a variable in the txt file “y” or “n” so that if the button is not needed then i can hide it. I have got a dynamic text box on the root, to pick up the y or n and then what i want is if the text box says “y” then the button is visible if it says “n” then button is not. Here is the code i have so far.
myLoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLoadVars.onLoad = function() {
//to load the text
_root.play_btn.play_txt.text = this.play
//to load the var y or n
_root.playbtn_txt.text = this.playbtn
};
//to load the text file with the vars
myLoadVars.load("text/labels.txt");
//playbtn_txt = dynamic text box to pick up "y" or "n".
//play_btn = the button i want to show or hide.
if (_root.playbtn_txt.text = y){
_root.play_btn._visible = true;
} else {
_root.play_btn._visible = false;
}
