[Xerte] Controlling Xerte Sound Icon From an external SWF

[Paul Beckwith, AC&S Ltd]

I did write a monster of an email explaining but just as I was about to send
it, I figured it out!

 

It has brought me to another problem though..

 

If I use reset() on a sound icon that has many sync'd pages attached to it,
all the pages reset too. 

 

I can see a startsound function but not a pausesound / resetsound one to
keep the sound separate form the actual icon

 

Any ideas?

 

Paul

Works for me. Build a simple file with a sound, an interaction, a button and
a script that says 

 

snd.reset();

 

run the piece, the sound plays, hit the button, the sound stops?

Can anybody tell me why this isn't working when used with a button in flash?

 

on(release){

            _level0.engine.rootIcon[currentPage].PageSound.stop();

            

}

 

PageSound is the name of my sound icon in Xerte.
