Mouseclick out of a Scala Subscript Loop

Wednesday, 11/28/2007 -- by John W.. Subject: Mouseclick out of a Scala Subscript Loop

I have an animation subscript, a flipbook of images if you will, & need to have it loop infinitely until the user mouseclicks to move to the next slide in the main script.

I tried the invisible button trick with Goto endloop (exits script) on each of the subscript frames, but was wondering if there is something more graceful & didn't show the mouse pointer.

Was thinking of setting it to Branch on the subscript with Repeat Until, but don't have the name/syntax for the Mouseclick event/variable.

Using IC Designer 5 on this system, but have many customers to support on IC Designer1 & 3. Any ideas?... thanx in advance. John W

Still no response? I'm surpised... first by the fact that this functionality is not already built into Scala after 3 major releases... & second... no one has come up with a workaround. This is basic stuff guys! John W

You could try setting up Mouse.PrimaryButton and Mouse.SecondaryButton with OnNotification:

OnNotification("Mouse.PrimaryButton", Goto("JumpToBegining", Bookmark(Off)));

OnNotification("Mouse.SecondaryButton", Goto("JumpToEnd", Bookmark(Off)));

Thanks Erik, will give it a shot. John W

The Scala Website requires that JavaScript (Active Scripting) be enabled.

Please go to Tools, Internet Options under the Menus. Select the Security Tab, then Custom Level button. Then click the Enable button under Scripting / Active Scripting. Hit OK, then OK again to exit requestors. You will know it's working when you see a "More" link in the links beneath the Tabs.

You can still use the website without changing this setting, but certain features will be disabled.
