Alright, how to make flash texts appear after we pressed space bar somesort like powerpoint? Thanks for teaching anyhow.

create a button/... put an action..
key press...
make sure the button is out from the stage...

the script maybe likfe this ( i'm doing this on the pc without flash.. correct me if i was wronf in the script)

--------------
on(keyPress "<Space>"){
play()
}
---------------
and at the button option.. set it alpha = 0 .. or u can tint it same with the background color
hope it helps

Hmm what if i'm not goin to space bar one thing only but alot of texts? like after i pressed the 1st and i wanted to press the 2nd, and upcoming the 3rd and .... So do i've to put 'em in different scene or jz put them in a scene and maybe there's another solution?

Hmm what do u mean by out of stage? u meant put it out of the main frames dat u r going to animate ?

Hmm i've got the way, all i have to do i sort out what i wanted to present and arrange them ascendingly, then every text content i'll put the invisible button and script, and the layer above them will be having two stops as for the start and end. Is it correct?

I guess the only idiotic way in my knowledge is setting keyframes a "Label Name" for each sentences.

Using space bar to go "NEXT1" and "NEXT2" and "NEXT3".

eg:"Next1" is label name

agree with dinodog.. u can try to put frame label. try also function gotoAndPlay an gotoAndStop.. both play different role.

Anyhow, at the play() there, i cant insert label name like others for example play("nxt1"), the "" function seems to be disabled.

you have to make a different between play() and goToAndPlay() (Please check the spelling)

fyi.. play() kenot play certain frame label.. only gotoAndPlay( [ frame label } ) can be use in this condition.. in addition if im not mistaken play() is just play.. it cant go to another frame or any frame u specified.

the spelling is gotoAndPlay

but how am i going to arrange the script so that the texts that i've arranged can appear accordingly?

get http://www.swishzone.com/

this is the idea

frame 1 - text 1 - the button in frame one contain script nextFrame or gotoAndPlay(2).

frame 2 - text 2 . this frame 2 u hv to put frame script.. not script for the button. the frame script would be [ stop() ] the button script oso same.. nextFrame

hope u understand

Hmm yea, i got it. Thanks.
