Good day,
Here is the project I’ve been working on:
http://www.margaretsplace.com.au/Assets/mda.html
Currently, it’s overly big because my scripting is verbose and cumbersome.
I’ve created an array to hold 8 function names:
[AS]
_global.swatchFunction = [“dropAUL”, “dropAUR”, “dropALL”, “dropALR”, “dropBUL”, “dropBUR”, “dropBLL”, “dropBLR”]
[/AS]
I have 8 buttons on the stage. Each button is supposed to change the function so that I can use the same scrolling thumbnail mc to load images into different placeholder mcs.
So I proposed to myself that each button would have:
[AS]
on(release){
functionName = swatchFunction[0];
}
[/AS]
I’ve created the 8 functions in the first frame, so all I’m trying to do is swap over the function name with the on(release) handler.
Basically, can I use a variable to call a function?
Any suggestions? Direction? Thanks.
