Hi, total newbie and totally freaked out, did the search on google and did the search in online help, no use.

Seeking to switch images in a frame (without switching the frame of course). Like DynamicText allows to switch text.

Basically have numbered images which I want to call to the screen from an arrayed index, yes have a good idea of scripting and none of Flash.

Any pointers would be highly appreciated.

There’s a photo gallery tutorial on this site that uses an array to load images, it might give you some ideas. Here is the link. =)

Got that, looks promising and what a quick reply. No corporation has ever helped one like that.

Now that I have that, only one more part left pleaseeeeeeeee :goatee:

I have a scroll text box, I was easily able to put text in it through frames, any way I can call text into it synched to the image?

As now I have no frames, can I just have numbered string variables and call them (sounds likely) Any magic to that (I AM a newbie, this is wonderland 😉

thank you and Kudos.
