CableGuy:

Just playing with the new dll and the zoom feature doesn't function very well. Why does it use an Int? Shouldn't it be something like 1.2 or .45 ?

The transparent function is definitely not working on my copter movie.

I like the idea of controlling the movie speed which I'm pretty sure is supported.

Great work for now though...

Controling speed Must be done by jumping from one given frame to another on a timer...
NOT dll implementable...
The zoom IS integer as stated in an adobe related document:

Quote:

Zoom(int percent) - Zoom the view by a relative scale factor. Zoom(50) will double the size of the objects in the view. Zoom(200) will reduce the size of objects in the view by one half.

I got the zoom feature working...

Sub Button2_Click
swf.Zoom(99) ' Zoom in by 1 percent

End Sub

Sub Button3_Click

swf.Zoom(101) ' Zoom out by 1 percent
End Sub

1 = max zoom

100 = min zoom

It's a bit counter-intuitive but it works ...

Found out that transparency is a feature for web page export only. It's an option on the publish settings, so I guess it won't work in the wrapper.

I've found 2 articles in the adobe site regarding scripting to the activex player, wich lists all methods, properties and EVENTS exposed by the player..
i will try to implement as much as i can...
Here are the 2 links...
Scripting with Flash Player and ActiveX

Macromedia Flash - Scripting with Flash 5: Scripting for the ActiveX control

Please let me known of what is missing at the moment and how I could test the dll to make sure they work..
