Exit button for .swf or projector?

Nov 4, 2011 2:31 PM

Tags: #as3 #swf #projector #exit #.swf

Hi All,

 

I am admittedly a complete novice, so please bear with...just completed Lynda tutorial on Flash Pro cs5.

 

Just trying to do a simple animation with an exit button to close out the player (projector, Flash Player). I have seen several discussions on the same, and have tried all example code to no avail. I am testing through publishing, not preview and it does not function as an exit button.

 

Have tried:

 

on(release){

fscommand("quit");

}

 

...and...

 

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

exitButton_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function()
{
        fscommand("quit");
}

 

 

I created the button symbol, selected it and then selected the first keyframe on that layer...entered AS3 window and tried the above code. No luck : /

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I searched through the forum and was unable to locate the answer to this question. Apologies if I missed it somehow.

 

Thanks in advance!!!

    I created an example which works just fine. You can download it here: http://dev.flashlabs.eu/examples/fscommand/source.zip

    The source looks like this:

     

    import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
 
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
 
btn_exit.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, exitBtn_clickHandler);
 
function exitBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
    fscommand("quit");
}

    Hi,

     

    I want to know the swf can call fscommand too.

     

    I know projector file can call .bat/.exe but it is not working with swf in browser as well as standalone.

     

     

    Thanks
