hmm i was thinkin to myself… about actionscript. i dont know much of anything except for… gotoandplay… iftotalbytesloaded() etc.

i was kinda thinkin… and i will explain in rough (not real) action script

if you had a dragable closable and MINIMIZABLE box… u could do something like this?

on (release)(  
(if.state.minimized==true  
\_root.\_y+1  
if.\_root\_y==300( //or the height you want it to maximize to…  
(\_root\_y==300)  
if.state.maximized==true  
\_root.\_y-1  
if.\_root\_y==0( //or the height you want it to minimize to…  
(\_root\_y==0)

//and on the button  
onenterframe  
set.state==maximized

im sure all you ASers out there ar cringing right now… but i dunno much about AS and i was just kidna thinkin aloud

😃

if you understand what i mean… do you think it would work?

Meister,  
write down in palin english the different things you want to happen on certain events, then look up the code and try to translate it into AS, read the reference panel to see what each function does, or check the as help file…have a go, then post with encountered pb’s. Better to try yourself, than just get it worked out for you. What do you want to happen there, and when?
