flash actionscript: Hi All,
I'm new to action script, and I just need this one script > How can I script a
Flash .exe file to always stay on top of all other windows?

Basically what i want to do is have a flash-created step-by-step instructional
movie, but for the movie to remain on top of all windows so the instructee is
able to follow the instructions on-screen...

It would be preferable to not have to buy another product just to do this...
as I said, this is the only scripting I need.
Thanks in advance

Cheers
Rick

if you create your exe with mProjector you can use one of its new AS
commands to do this.

setZOrder

all APIS

Demo

mProjector installs new classes and help into Flash, to enable them you
must build your app with mProjector (its input is your swf)

Not possible without a 3rd part app I'm afraid.

I should clarify > I would prefer not to have to buy (or use time-based trial versions), however 3rd party programs are fine....
