[Swftools-common] FSCommand problem

[Anil Chandra]

Hi,

Here is what I wanted to do.

1. Take a third party swf file and embed that in new swf file (loadMovie)

2. new swf file is placed on a vb6 form.

3. when user clicks on the new swf, fscommand should be received by vb6 application.

First I got the fscommand working in swfc using button

Code:

*************************************************

.button show

  .show button_idle as=idle

  .show button_idle as=shape

  .show button_idle as=area

  .show button_hover as=hover

  .show button_pressed as=pressed

  .on_press:

    this.getURL("fscommand:abcd","");

  .end

.end

*************************************************

When the button is clicked, I am able to get fscommand event in my vb6 application.

But my requirement is that the loaded third-party swf should generate fscommand on click.

I tried various combinations (may not be exhaustive, I confess), without success.

Code:

*************************************************

.flash filename="action4.swf" bbox=728x90 version=8 fps=60 compress

.box button_idle width=728 height=90 color=red  fill=salmon line=2

.box button_hover width=728 height=90 color=orange  fill=salmon line=2

.box button_test width=728 height=90 color=orange  fill=salmon line=2

.button show

  .show button_idle as=idle

  .show button_idle as=shape

  .show button_idle as=area

  .show button_hover as=hover

  .show button_pressed as=pressed

  .action:

    this.loadMovie("mainbox.swf","");

  .end

  .on_press:

    this.getURL("fscommand:abcd","");

  .end

.end

.put show x=0 y=0 alpha=5%

.end

*************************************************

In the above try, I tried to load mainbox.swf (third party swf) into the button and wanted to generate fscommand through .on_press. But it does not work.

Is there any way I can load third party swf file and generate custom fscommand?

Thanks in advance.
