[Xerte] Setting Hotspot Highlights in a sript icon

[Dave Burnett]

Most likely a typecasting issue.

The XML structure is all String.
The function wants a Number.

Thanks J, 

 

I’ll draw the boxes…

 

One quick question on the same
subject. . . 

 

This comes out with 503 :   debug(icon.parentNode.attributes.x);  


The box spans the entire screen
when icon.parentNode.attributes.x is used here:     hspotID.drawRect(icon.parentNode.attributes.x,100,50,50);

 

But manually putting “503” works
fine

 

Can’t figure out why this would
be any different?

 

Paul

It wouldn’t work in
this case: the unerlying xml is used ot render the page.

 

So, it is used as the
page initalises.

 

After the user has
interacted with it is too late, unless you refresh the page - which is not what
you want,

How
do you do it the proper way though? My underlying mission here is to find out
how to change the attributes in the XML via script….

 

Cheers
Jules,

I’d just draw the highlight yourself

 

hotSpotID.lineStyle(1,0xFFFF00,100);

hotSpotID.drawRect(0,0,hotspotID._width, hostpotID._height);

When a user
clicks on a hotspot, I want  the highlight property to change from 0 to 1
so the highlight is then visible. 

 

I’ve tried a few
different ways but I cant seem to get the code quite right. 

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers, 

 

Paul
