pause QT with Spacebar

[mwh71057]

I want to pause a QT movie with the space bar, one click stops it, one click
starts it. The script below only works while bar is being pressed. - Help!

on enterFrame me
sprite (1).movieRate = 1

if _key.keyPressed(49) then

if sprite (1).movieRate = 0 then
sprite (1).movieRate = 1
else
if sprite (1).movieRate = 1 then
sprite (1).movieRate = 0
end if
end if
end if
end

Second question:
If projector is made to a specific size ie 1024X768, is ther a way that the
projector can shrink to a smaller size if played on a monitor of 800X600?

-- remove the line above - you are effectively starting it every time
#enterFrame fires

Read the docs for 'drawRect'

can be wrote :

sprite (1).movieRate = not (sprite (1).movieRate)

You can find a set of behaviors and a demo movie
http://nonlinear.openspark.com/tips/scripts/ which redimension the stage and
resize and reposition sprites so that the movie fits a smaller screen.

Note that the font size in text and field members will need to be adjusted,
too.

Wow, thanks for all of the help. I have one slight change, I misunderstood my
boss. He wants to pause the "Director movie (projector)", not the QT movie with
the space bar. Hit once for pause, once for start back up. Thanks again.
