Re: Playing an image sequence in reverse

[James W. <jfc...@ya...>]

Thanks, I think this last little problem is my fault: 
I click on the hotspot and nothing happens. I think it's because I closed "hotspot" incorrectly. What do you think? Sorry to drag this out.
 
CODE************************
 
hotspot {
  onmousedown = function()
    pipmak.schedule(
    0.04,
     function()
      if animpos < 0 then animpos = 100 end
       an_linkingBook:setimage ("an_linkingBook/an_linkingBook_"  ..  animpos ..".jpg") 
       return 0.04
       end
      )
  end
}

END CODE********************
 
Thanks, 
  James

pipmak.schedule runs the function you give it as an argument after the given
time. So, what is run again and again is only the function() below, not the
whole code of onmousedown of the hotspot. So the if..then I gave you in my
previous post has to be placed in the function() below:

> pipmak.schedule(
> 0.04,

> animpos = math.mod(animpos - 1, 100)
> an_linkingBook:setimage ("an_linkingBook/an_linkingBook_"  .. animpos ..
> ".jpg") return 0.04
> end

Just change this to

pipmak.schedule(
0.04,
function()
  if animpos < 0 then animpos = 100 end
  an_linkingBook:setimage ("an_linkingBook/an_linkingBook_"  ..    
  animpos ..".jpg") 
  return 0.04
end
)

or similar. Now it loops automatically. I hope this is what you want. Then
you also don't need the if..then..else in the onmousedown function.
