I have created my controls (play, stop etc) and assigned the actions to them. I have created a blank MC where the videos are to be loaded (I’ve named this ‘myVideo’).
This worked fine when I created it for 2 video clips that I had saved separately as .swf files. I created 2 seperate buttons (1 for each clip) and loaded them in using the ‘asfunction’ in the links section of the properties box for each button. This was done using MX.
However, for my new project (using MX 2004) I have 50 video clips. I obviously don’t want 50 separate buttons cluttering up the page so want them in a drop down menu (ComboBox). The problem I have is that I’m not sure how to link each name in the menu to it’s corresponding .swf file?
To help make it clearer as to what I want to do my .fla file is here.
As you can see I have the two buttons above the screen. When one is clicked the corresponding .swf file loads in the screen and so on.
I’ve put the ComboBox in and entered the labels I want (4th October, 5th October etc). I’m assuming I need to use the component inspector to link each one to it’s corresponding .swf file. How can I do this?
Will appriciate any help, thanks.
