Swishmax Externally Loaded .txt files
1 commentsFirst, create your text file. Do this with a basic notepad. I am going to use the variable mymessage, so my .txt file would be formatted like this:
&mymessage= Hi, this is my message
Welcome to my site!
More stuff here and here
-----END&
Make sure to add the &'s at the beginning and end. Now just save your .txt file as text.txt(Also, check the .txt file in the download) Now open up your swishmax. Create a dynamic text file, name it message, click the target button and give it the variable of mymessage(or the same thing in your .txt file)..and add this code to your scene:
onLoad () {
loadVariablesNum("http://yourdomain.com/text.txt",0,'GET');
}
Please change the http://yourdomain.com/text.txt to your file, or you can keep it there, because I have a file that is uploaded there Now we will do the easiest part, the scroll buttons (Too hard to explain scrollbars or anything like that) So make a up button, with the code:
on (press) {
Message.scroll -= 1;
}
and a down button with the code:
on (press) {
Message.scroll += 1;
}
Both these refer to Message, which is what I put in the name of the text, not the variable. Hope this helps... Also, I would like to include this info from John: Also while your at it try altering the TEXT to the HTML format [in the "text" section select "Formatting" and then select " <> " "render text as HTML" ] ( much clearer text and then do things like add colour and links such as Swish Tutorials to the notepad text file..
