Your Flash object would have to be Transparent for the button to be clickable... other than that you'd have to make the FLASH movie execute the command using the fscommand in flashscript. Check the sample.fla file in the BMV2 skin as an example.

To make the button, you can just use the rectangle or circular shape tool and set the alpha of the shape to 0. That way there is a hit area for your button and you can see through it at the same time.

Otherwise you can load the earth.swf into a container sprite of a separate flash movie and use the earth.swf as a button.

I have one image.swf of the globe that rotates and i want open MM in RR but if i use:

on (release) {
fscommand("exec", "xxxxxxxxxxx.exe");
}

for xxxxx.exe what do i put??

**guino** · 12-05-2005, 05:18 PM

I don't know what you're trying to do but:

fscommand("exec", "xxxxxxxxxxx.exe");

does nothing... the first parameter needs to be a RR COMMAND (as in skin commands.txt) and the second parameter is used on very RARE situations (i.e. to simulate Up/Down mouse events)...

If you want to run something then look at the RUN or LOAD command for RR and use: fscommand("RUN;C:\...\MM.exe", "");
