I am new to MX and have very basic concepts.
I have a very general requirement that seemed very simple:
Step 1:
Load a new external JPEG image into a MC with a string var encoding a string caption in the URL link (VALUE="…/fadeTest.swf?someTextVar=TestCaption") within the EMBED / OBJECT sections.
I know how to do this and it semed to work fine.
STEP2:
When the JPEG is loaded I would like the substituted Text to Fade In over the JPEG. The JPEG should also fade in before the Text. The fade rate should be programmable.
STEP3:
After a programmable period of time say 5 seconds, the process is repeated with a new external JPEG and Text Captions
until the loop iterations is complete. The loop iteration is also programmable.
Seemed like a very normal MX functionality.
Now where do I start? Any help is truly appreciated
Thank you
Chris
