Get Variable - Flash Comand
May 8, 2008 12:00 AM
Hey good people out there in Lectora land... I need your help!!I'm trying to get a variable from a flash animation that I have placed in my Lectora (2008) title. As I understand it, this is not a difficult task in Lectora 2008.Here's the skinny:I have a basic Flash animation in which I declare a "actcompletion" variable in the first frame with the initial value set to "0". On the last frame (which the user gets to by simply clicking on a button), I set the variable to equal "1". All this is done using AS 2.0 and publishing as Flash 8.Now in Lectora, I have added a user-defined variable "activity_complete" with the initial value set to "0". I have an image at the chapter level that is NOT initially visible with an action on it stating "On Show > Show > Image", WITH a condition to ONLY do so when Variable: "activity_complete" is "Equal To" "1".Then on the page where I have placed this Flash animation I have an action on the animation set to "On: Done Playing" > "Action: Flash Command" > "Target: animation" > "Command: Get Variable" > "Name: actcompletion" > "Variable: activity_complete"But I have been unable to get the "1" variable from Flash and put it into my "activity_complete" variable in Lectora.Has anyone out there worked with this functionality in Lectora 2008?? Please let me know any and all ideas on how I can get this to work or the proper steps I should be taking in order to achieve this.Many Thanks!!!-Tim
