i have been having a god awful time with this! what i want to do is something very similar to the photo gallery, except it is to be done with text. picture a rectangle with text in it. when a button is clicked, new text will be in place in the rectangle. i am wondering what the easiest way to go about doing this is. i was very confused. i thought maybe i could alter the photo gallery code and take out the fading and soforth to make it work, but i just confused myself. i hope my question is clear! any help is appreciated!
give the text a var name (something like loadedText) and then just use loadVariables in the movieclip the text is in, loading textfiles which have
loadedText=a bunch of text…
so when loaded, the loadedText will immediately be the loaded variable loadedText
ie:
myMc.loadVariables(“mytext.txt”)
/* mytext.txt contains:
loadedText=here is the text I want to display
*/
// and loadedText is a dynamic textField in myMC with the var name loadedText
