» Title: Creative DW Image Show PRO
» Description: Creative DW Image Show PRO is a Dreamweaver extension which enables the user to create multimedia presentations. It combines the features of the popular Creative DW Image Show with the ability to add professional text effects to slides (similar to After Effects). The product is very customizable: the user can choose the duration of the transition effects, the slide motion start and end position, zoom and panning type for both images and texts.
The following code appears in the button of the drag objects we'll start with the ON PRESS event first:
on (press) {
mydepth = _root.howmany * 2 here we are setting a variable to a certain depth (z)order so it will always appear on top as you are dragging it around the screen.
this.swapDepths(mydepth); this is where we actually set the depth of the object
startDrag (this, true); this allows us to drag the object
for (i = 0; i <_root.howmany; i++) {
if (this.hitTest(_root["t" add i])) {
_root.code.cover[i] = 0
break;
}
}
}
The above for loop is used to set the cover of a target to 0 or False. The reason we are doing this is that if you placed an object on a target then moved it off the target - then we wanted to be able to allow other objects to be placed on that target. If an object is placed on a target we set the cover to 1 or True so no other object can be placed on that target.
for (i = 0; i <_root.howmany; i++) { This function checks to see
if (this.hitTest(_root["t" add i])) { if you have landed on a target
var hit_success = 1 If so it sets a variable hit_success
break; equal to 1 or TRUE
}else{
var hit_success = 0 If not it sets the same variable
} hit_success equal to 0 or FALSE
}
