rootMenu() 513

Example

This statement changes the content of the field cast member Message to “This is the place.” when

the pointer is over sprite 6:

-- Lingo syntax

if (_movie.rollOver(6)) then

member("Message").text = "This is the place."

end if

// JavaScript syntax

if (_movie.rollOver(6)) {

member("Message").text = "This is the place.";

}

The following handler sends the playhead to different frames when the pointer is over certain

sprites on the Stage. It first assigns the

rollOver value to a variable. This lets the handler use the

rollOver value that was in effect when the rollover started, regardless of whether the user

continues to move the mouse.

-- Lingo syntax

on exitFrame

currentSprite = _movie.rollOver()

case currentSprite of

1: _movie.go("Left")

2: _movie.go("Middle")

3: _movie.go("Right")

end case

end exitFrame

// JavaScript syntax

function exitFrame() {

var currentSprite = _movie.rollOver();

switch (currentSprite) {

case 1: _movie.go("Left");

break;

case 2: _movie.go("Middle");

break;

case 3: _movie.go("Right");

break;

}
