Please note that the standard Macromedia Flash FSCommands do NOT work in Zinc™ v2 Projectors. Select fscommand from the Actionscript Reference or press 'Esc+fs' to insert it as shown below: .FSCommand Usage NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated.Insert a new FSCommand Create a New File in Macromedia Flash 5. MX or MX 2004 and go to the frame/button you wish to insert your FSCommand. your new FSCommand should like this: Continue to Step 2 .A FSCommand is very simple to script as it only requires the command name. and the command parameter(s). In the syntax window. 5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects. whilst standard Flash FSCommands cannot. The command name is entered first. The command name and parameters must be placed within the brackets.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2.FSCommand Usage NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated. Step 2 .0. followed by the command parameter(s). This chapter is included as a point of reference on FSCommand Implementation. This FSCommand only has one parameter which is the custom message for the dialog to display. This is required as Zinc™ v2 FSCommands can support multiple parameters. All new Zinc™ v2. The \" characters are used to "escape" the quotations in Macromedia Flash so that multiple parameters can be parsed correctly. Notice that our custom message ("Hello World") has the characters \" before and after it.prompt" which is used to display a Prompt Dialog with a custom message. as shown below: In the example above. we have used the FSCommand "mdm. It is still available in Zinc™ v2. Continue to Step 3 .FSCommand Syntax (literal) You can now type your command directly into the Flash Actionscript Syntax Window. Step 3 . note that when using variables. It is still available in Zinc™ v2. Notice that the FSCommand Parameter is now referenced to the variable name. All new Zinc™ v2. export a SWF and compile using Zinc™ v2.0. Also. When using literal parameters you cannot change the values during runtime. the FSCommand will execute a Prompt Dialog. To use variables. When you launch your Projector.5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects. Using variables instead of literal values offers more functionality. and then execute the FSCommand in the same manner: In the example above. you do not need to use the \" characters before and after the FSCommand Parameter(s). .FSCommand Usage NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated. the custom message is declared in the variable msg.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2. and not the literal value. Conclusion Using either method. This chapter is included as a point of reference on FSCommand Implementation. you simply declare a variable first. A literal entry is where the parameters are entered directly into the FSCommand like the example in Step 2.FSCommand Syntax (Var) FSCommands can be used using "literal" parameters or "variables". Example (Literal) When using multiple literal parameters. As you can see. which must be entered in the correct order. All new Zinc™ v2.FSCommand Advanced Usage NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated. care must be taken to add the characters \" before and after each parameter.0. Many Zinc™ v2 FSCommands require multiple parameters. we used a simple FSCommand which only requires one parameter. This chapter is included as a point of reference on FSCommand Implementation. The variables are declared and then referenced in the FSCommand: . Example (Var) Using variables with multiple parameter FSCommands provides an easier method of code management. It is still available in Zinc™ v2.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2. Advanced FSCommand Usage In the previous Topic. y resolution and the color depth to use. care must be taken to add \" characters before and after each parameter and also to separate each parameter with a comma. and also to separate each parameter with a comma: The command used above enables a DirectX resolution on the users system and has 3 parameters: x resolution.5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects. using literal values. Each parameter is separated with a single comma.Notice that we can enter the variables name without the need for \" characters. . · · .

Return Variables Return Variables in {mdm}Script™ Commands must ALWAYS be encapsulated in quotes. {mdm}Script™ is not compatible any previous versions of Flash.0 is coded directly in your Flash Movie (Using Flash MX. result handling and simplified scripting structure. {mdm}Script™ 1. However {mdm}Script™ 1.0 was Asynchnorous in execution (just as FSCommands are) and it still follows some of the basic rules of FSCommands.0. By far the biggest advantage of {mdm}Script™ 1. Adobe LiveMotion etc) but with the advantage of callbacks. {mdm}Script™ Initialization {mdm}Script™ must be initialized on the first frame of every SWF used in your Project with the code "mdminit().5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects.browsefile("returnVar").What is {mdm}Script 1.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2. All new Zinc™ v2.0 is compatible on both Windows and Mac OSX Projector Types. For example.0 was introduced in 2004 as a replacement for FSCommands. Swift MAX. {mdm}Script™ 1.0 was that it had been developed as a Cross Platform Scripting language . mdm. {mdm}Script™ 1. Just like FSCommands. A list of Guidelines which should be considered when using {mdm}Script™ is composed below: · Flash Version Compatibility {mdm}Script™ is ONLY compatible with SWF's exported to version 6 or higher.0? NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated. It is still available in Zinc™ v2.browsefile should look like this: mdm.Whilst FSCommands are exclusive to Windows Projectors only. Each return variable in a command must have it's own set of quotes. You no longer need to declare variables on the _root. · . {mdm}Script™ can reference variables from ANY location.· Cross Platform Compatibility {mdm}Script™ is cross platform and works on both Windows PC Projectors and Mac OSX Projectors! Please note that if you are developing a Mac OSX Projector only. FSCommands are NOT supported in Mac OSX Projectors. you MUST use {mdm}Script™ . Referencing Variables Unlike FSCommands. {mdm}Script 1. If this is NOT included.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2.0. This code is required on the First Frame of EVERY SWF USED IN YOUR PROJECT.Step 1 NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated.5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects. All new Zinc™ v2. This chapter is included as a point of reference on FSCommand Implementation. It is still available in Zinc™ v2. The above code initializes the {mdm}Script™ and makes the scripting architecture possible. Expand the Action Window and enter the following code: mdminit(). then the commands will not function.

To use variables.5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects. the parameter does not require quotes as we are now referencing a variable (in this case.{mdm}Script 1.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2. the {mdm}Script™ Command will execute a Prompt Dialog. export a SWF and compile using Zinc™ v2. you simply declare a variable first. As you can see. All new Zinc™ v2. can be used using "literal" parameters or "variables". Using variables instead of literal values offers more functionality. When using literal parameters you cannot change the values during runtime. Conclusion Using either method. and then execute the command in the same manner: message = "Hello World". the variable is called message). Step 3 .0. . mdm. just like FSCommands. 0 Usage (Callbacks) {mdm}Script™ also incorporates a unique callback system which allows commands with return variables to trigger simple or complex functions. instead of entering the return variable. This chapter is included as a point of reference on FSCommand Implementation.0 Advanced Usage NOTE: FSCommand Usage is now deprecated. Expand the Action Window and enter the following code: mdminit(). the function is called "myCallBackFunction".prompt(myValue). function myCallBackFunction(myValue){ mdm.{mdm}Script 1. All new Zinc™ v2. Advanced {mdm}Script™ 1. It is still available in Zinc™ v2. Step 2 . In this case.0. we enter the name of the function to use instead. } Create a button on the main timeline and add the following code to it: on (release){ mdm.browsefile(myCallBackFunction) } As you can see. Below is a simple example of how to use a callback function: Step 1 Create a New File in Macromedia Flash MX or MX 2004 and select the First Frame of your Movie.5 to provide backwards compatibility but should not be exclusively used for new projects.5 Projects should be scripted with {mdm}Script™ 2. This demonstrates a very simple way to execute callback functions. press the button to trigger the Browse File Dialog. After selecting a file and clicking on OK. The main point. but advanced usage can also be applied. . or watches is now eliminated and coding becomes far less time consuming. the result will be sent to the function which will then prompt the value.When the movie is exported and compiled using Zinc™ v2. however. is that the need to use frame-by-frame loops. What is {mdm}Script 2.Using {mdm}Script™ 2.0 Scripting Engine! {mdm}Script™ 2.0 is as simple and straightforward as using ActionScript! In addition.0 command is part of an ActionScript Object.0 and 2. This means that it can called directly.0? Building on the success of {mdm}Script™ 1. It just Works! True Object Oriented Approach Every {mdm}Script™ 2.5 is the World's First SWF2EXE Application to provide Synchronous Command Execution on both Windows and Mac OSX! {mdm}Script™ 2. and introduces Methods. callbacks or coding "tricks" required. Zinc™ v2.0 provides a True Object Orientated Approach to Programming and is integrated directly with ActionScript 1.0 is 100% Synchronous.0 is now completely Synchronous and available in your Project without the need to initialize it first! {mdm}Script™ 2.0.0 does away with clumsy parameters and literals.. {mdm}Script™ 2..5 now features an all new {mdm}Script™ 2.0 provides developers with an all new API which is easier to use than ever before and also provides fantastic expandability for experienced ActionScript coders! · Synchronous Execution {mdm}Script™ 2. Events and Properties! Cross Platform Zinc v2.0 . or assigned to other objects (or classes) and called from them! {mdm}Script™ 2. This means that commands are executed in order with ActionScript! No more frame-by-frame loops.0 provides a flexible and powerful API which works on both Major Platforms! · · . This helps the programmer manage and scale thier code in a much more efficient manner. open. A Property Properties can be thought of as qualities or single features which can be set or . An Object An Object is a collection of methods and properties bundled together in a related fashion. A Class A Class is the definition of an Object. when we create a Box. if you want to tell the Box object to open: Box.0 API consisits of Classes. So in the case of a Box. So a Class for a box is used every time we are creating a new Box. {mdm}Script™ 2. Properties and Events for each Command Set. a Box Object has properties such as width.{mdm}Script 2. and methods such as close. A Class is not an Object itself.0. Similarily. please follow the QuickStart Guide. we need to know what kind of box we are making. unpack etc. Definitions of these categories are provided below: Object Oriented Programming A way of programming that introduces real world concepts such as objects to programming. Methods. For Example. depth and height.0 follows a true Object Oriented Apporach to Programming (OOP) so that it is more closely linked to ActionScript and familiar to Flash Developers/Designers. For example: myBox = new Box().open(). so if you want a Box object to close you tell it to close: Box.close(). A Method Methods can be thought of as verbs. but instead it acts as a blueprint for an Object. The {mdm}Script™ 2.0 Usage For a step-by-step guide on how to get started with {mdm}Script™ 2. For example: Box. An Event An event is something that occurs. causing a reaction.width = 100.onOpen() . .This is an event for the Box object which reacts when the Box is opened.read directly from the object. For example: Box. with {mdm}Script™ 1. } function promptValue(fileContent){ mdm.loadfromfile(fileToLoad. Whilst callbacks do the job. c) Prompt the contents in a simple Dialog. The easiest way to understand the benefits of this Synchronous behavior. With {mdm}Script™ 2.{mdm}Script 2. The above code uses Callbacks to compensate for the Asynchronous Execution. promptValue).0. the code required to successfully execute this procedure would be: mdminit(). function loadFile(fileToLoad){ mdm.browsefile(loadFile).0 API is it's Synchronous Execution. they can become very cumbersome to use and manage when several actions are required.0 Advanced Usage One of the most unique and powerful features of the {mdm}Script™ 2.0 the same procedure can be executed like so: . b) Load the contents of the File into their Application.prompt(fileContent). is to compare the syntax to previous Asynchronous execution: Let's assume you want to create a simple Application which allows the user to do the following: a) Browse their local Hard Drive for any Text File. Previously. } mdm. mdm.prompt( mdm. As you can immediately see.show() ) ). updates can be made quickly without having to refer to functions and callbacks which may reside in other frames or symbols. Best of all.BrowseFile.Dialogs.Dialogs. code is easier to read.FileSystem. understand and manage. . the entire process can be executed in a single line of code! By eliminating the need for Asynchronous Callbacks.loadFile( mdm. Forms. The basic structure of forms is a Parent (The main SWF compiled in this case) and the Child Form (any sub Forms which are created under the main Form). which allows advanced development of applications. . For the individual developer. to date. Forms are a great way to manage and build complex projects. Using Forms allows a team of developers to work on sperate areas of a Project at the same time. Zinc™ v2 is the only SWF2EXE tool which offers multiple window applications based upon the Macromedia Flash™ Format! Notes Please note that Sub-Forms are currently limited to 20 (including the Main Form). Forms are separate "windows" which make up one entire Application.Forms Overview Zinc™ v2 embraces a form based visual programming environment. have been used in RAD applications and more recently in Macromedia Flash MX 2004 and Flash 8. Working with Forms Forms in Zinc™ v2 can be added and removed from the Forms Pane: Forms do not need to be used in your Project. or be masked. Every entry under your MainForm is referred to as a SubForm. Sub-Forms can also be "Modal" which means that an action must be completed (either by the user or within the Form) before other Forms become active again. For example. Form Properties Each Form has it's own properties and settings which are independent to the Main Form. All Forms can be given unique names by clicking on the Form Name. A quick double-click will execute a quick preview of the Form. or be Transparent also. the Main Form can be transparent. This can be a great asset when developing your own custom dialogs. and then clicking again to edit it. but sub-Forms can have standard Windows Styles. . but they can easily be incorporated as your application grows in size and complexity. MainForm.width = 400. Forms have a number of unique commands which can be used to control other Forms from any location.0 Command. Notice that the name of the form. If the name of the Form is not known. .Form Communication Each Form is created from an individual SWF file.thisForm.0 also has a Forms class which contains methods and properties specifically for Application Forms. Using Forms in Zinc™ v2. This means that each Form can also execute any available {mdm}Script™ 2. In addition.Forms.width = 400.5 opens up new possibilities in Flash Application Development! Form Class {mdm}Script™ 2. A typical Forms command would be: mdm.Forms.MainForm. just as the main SWF does. you can also use "thisForm": mdm. is referenced in the actual command. Templates Overview Templates are a new addition to Zinc™ v2. This way. the developer can concentrate on coding and perfecting the internal workings of the SWF. if you are working on many different Applications but each application is part of a "family" of products. Position. you can create a Template for that family where Size. Templates can also be "locked" which prevents other users from changing certain or all options. A Template is a file with specific Project Settings already set which can be re-used and re-applied to any new project in Zinc™ v2. . Skin etc are all pre-defined. Notes Templates can only be exported from the Windows Edition of Zinc™ v2. For example. " and the following window will appear: .Saving a Template First you must create a new Project and select your custom options. select "FILE > Save as Template. A good Template is one where all of the important options have been pre-selected for a specific Application Type. Splash Screen and Styles where appropriate. Once you have selected your Form options. if your Template is part of an internal Project you should select the same skin.. For example. Your Template can also contain sub-Forms as the Zinc™ v2 Template will save the sub-Form options selected also.. Notes If you select "Enable Password for Full Open" please be sure to note the password as the Template will be permanently locked. If you do wish to Lock Form Settings. please remember to lock each sub-Forms option independently by selecting the appropriate Form the drop down list. You can also select certain options to Lock so that other developers/users who access the Template cannot change your options. . you can specify a Template Name and also enter Author/Ownership details. your Template will be saved. Once you click on Save.Here. The alternative method is to select a Template from the Templates Tab: ." which will open a browse dialog. Browse to your saved Template to load it. Either navigate to "FILE > NEW > From Template.. If the Template has been locked by the Author (ie. If you did not create the Template) then you will be prompted for a Password. but you will be unable to change settings within it. If you don't have a Password you can still apply the Template.Loading a Template Loading a Template is very simple.. .Double click on a Template to create a New Project with the Template Options applied. The Templates Panel creates a list of all available Templates which have been saved in the Zinc™ v2 Templates Folder. your system must be equipped with a CD-Writer/Re-Writer or DVD-Writer/Re-Writer. click on the "Burn to CD/DVD" button (The last icon along the bottom): . Step 1 .Launch the CD/DVD Burn Screen Once you have created a structure. you can burn your final Application and associated files directly to CD or DVD (Windows Version Only) without the need for external software. This is done by adding all of your required project files to the CD Structure Window: The buttons at the bottom can be used to add and remove files and folders. Please note that when adding a folder. To burn a CD or DVD. Step 2 .Creating a CD/DVD With Zinc™ v2. all sub-folders and content will also be included.Create a CD Structure The first step is to create a CD Structure for your Project.

ICO Overview ICO files are unique image files which are used in Windows Applications. With Zinc™ v2. Icon files are also used in Windows Explorer to identify specific applications/files. ICO's (also referred to as Icons) are displayed in an Applications Title Bar. ICO files must be created using an ICO designer and must conform to standard ICO specifications. in the Task Bar and in the System Tray (If selected). Notes ICO files are specific to Windows PC Only . you can add a custom ICO resource to your Application to completely brand your end project. The ICO sizes supported by Zinc™ v2 are: 16x16 8bit 16x16 32bit 32x32 8bit 32x32 32bit 48x48 8bit 48x48 32bit (256 Color) (True Color with Alpha) (256 Color) (True Color with Alpha) (256 Color) (True Color with Alpha) With Zinc™ v2 you can provide a single resource ICO or a multi-resource ICO (an ICO which contains multiple sizes & color depths). Adding an ICO Resource You can specify a custom ICO resource for your Application under the Application Settings Tab. . b) Please note that your multi-resource ICO should always contain a 16x16 256 Color ICO for use in the Application Caption Bar. Simply select a valid ICO file and Zinc™ v2 will assign it to your Compiled Projector. If you provide a single resource ICO. provide a multi-resource ICO which has a resource for each ICO type. If a 16x16 ICO is not present. Zinc™ v2 will use the available resource to create entries for the other available slots. Notes a) For best results. For example. Zinc™ v2 will compile the 16x16 and 48x48 resources automatically. the next available Size will be used and scaled down. if your ICO is a single 32x32 resource. ICNS Overview ICNS files are unique image files which are used in Mac OSX Applications. Notes ICNS files are specific to Mac OSX Only. . The Free Developer Tools from Apple include a ICNS Composer. With Zinc™ v2. you can add a custom ICNS resource to your Mac OSX Application to completely brand your end project. ICNS files are also used in Mac File Explorer to identify specific applications/files. on the Desktop and in the Mac OSX Dock. ICNS files must be created using an ICNS designer and must conform to standard ICNS specifications. ICNS files are displayed in an Applications Title Bar. Simply select a valid ICNS file and Zinc™ v2 will assign it to your Compiled Mac OSX Projector. .Adding an ICNS Resource You can specify a custom ICNS resource for your Mac OSX Application under the Application Settings Tab. complete with customizable setup file and file structure!

For example.· External System Commands When executing a command which does anything involving a process outside of the SWF. please visit the MDM Support Form. aside from characteristic differences there are also programming differences to consider when developing cross platform Projectors. retrieving 1000 records from an Access Database might take less than a second on a more recent system. but could take a couple of seconds on an older machine with a slower CPU and less recent Operating System. For example.5 (and the Mac OSX Plug-In) you can build applications for both Windows and Mac OSX from a single source SWF. 0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2.5 .Command Line Parameters Introduction Using the Command Line feature. Command Line Parameters can be used to initiate triggers within your Application. Notes This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2. or set options for the end user. The application can then be programmed to run any number of tasks based upon the passed arguments. They provide a very powerful method of communication from the Command Line for advanced applications. you can execute your Applications from the command line and pass any arguments to the projector using custom defined parameters. Command Line Parameters Step 1 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and add a button with the following code: on (release) { cmdParam1 = mdm.5.prompt(cmdParam1) } This code has two parts: The first command retrieves the first command line parameter (which is always assigned the id "1") and returns it to the variable cmdParam1. Continue to Step 2 .Dialogs.cmdParams(1) mdm.Application. The second part of the code executes a prompt to display the value of cmdParam1. Export your SWF and then compile a Projector using Zinc™ v2. Continue to Step 3 . Enter "cmd" (as shown below) in the Run dialog box: Press OK to launch the Command Line Window.Command Line Parameters Step 2 To execute a projector with command line parameters. Click on the Windows Start button and then select Run. you must launch the projector from the command line. the first {mdm}Script™ Command will retrieve the value of the first parameter (in this case. "cmdvalue1") and assign it to the variable cmdParam1. which will be "cmdvalue1" . you can now execute your projector with up to 5 additional parameters of your choice. cmdvalue2 and cmdvalue3 Once the Projector is launched and we press the button created in Step 1. These values can be anything from a single word to a string of numbers. Separate each parameter with a single space: In the example above. The prompt command will then prompt the value of cmdParam1. we have the application name followed by 3 additional parameters with the values: cmdvalue1.Command Line Parameters Step 3 In the Command Line Window. Extensions.0 based upon existing or custom DLL files.beep() .5 which provide unlimited expandability to Zinc™ v2.0 API. Developers can now create their own custom commands for {mdm}Script™ 2. Notes In this Tutorial we shall create an extension from a function found in the Windows kernel32.Kernel32.the functions available in the kernel32.dll are documented in the Win32 Programmer's Reference which is available at the MDM File Exchange. The Zinc™ v2. Extensions can be saved and shared with other developers to extend the {mdm}Script™ 2.5 Extension Creator provides an interface to your DLL which can then run internal functions via custom named {mdm}Script™ Commands.5 projectors.dll . the Zinc v2 Extension Creator SDK is also available at the MDM File Exchange mdm. For advanced users.Creating an Extension Introduction Extensions are a fantastic new feature to Zinc™ v2. Creating an Extension Step 1 The kernel32. Click on Index and type the word "beep" in the search box at the top. To understand and use the available functions. The Chapter on the Beep Command should be highlighted as shown below: .dll is a Shared Library which is available in all Windows Systems. we can check the Win32 Programmer's Reference: The Win32 Programmer's Reference contains detailed usage guides on each function contained in the kernel32.dll. This DLL allows access to the entire Windows API through a series of functions. click on "Display" to view the usage references shown below: .With the Beep Chapter selected. dll is a simple command which executes a System Beep Tone.The Beep function within the kernel32. it is important that we know how many parameters are required so good DLL documentation is extremely important. Continue to Step 2 . The reference for the Beep function shows that this function has just 2 parameters: Frequency (in hertz) Duration (in milliseconds) To create a custom {mdm}Script™ Command based upon this DLL Function. Creating an Extension Step 2 Launch Zinc™ v2.5 and select "Extension Creator" from the Tools menu as shown below: This will launch the Zinc™v2.5 Extension Creator: . The kernel32. Click on the browse button at the bottom of the screen to select a DLL file.The first step is to select a DLL file.dll file is located in the Windows System32 Folder as shown below: . The Extension Creator will then ask you to select an Extension Class name. A second prompt will then be displayed as shown below: . For the purpose of this Tutorial.Select the kernel32. The Extension Creator will automatically select the prefix "kERNEL32" for you.dll and click on Open. we shall leave the prefix to this value: Click OK to accept the prefix. 45 seconds based upon the speed of your processor. This can take anything from 10 . it is best to select "No" at this prompt so that the DLL is packed into your final extension file. Instead. the extension will search in the appropriate system32 folder once it is installed. we can select "Yes" at this prompt so that the DLL is not included in the extension. Continue to Step 3 . Once you click on "Yes" the DLL Functions will be populated in the Extension Creator Command List.If you are connecting to a custom DLL. As we are using a standard Windows DLL. From the reference in Step 1. Set Parameter 1 and 2 to "integer" from the drop . Click on the "Extension Definition" Tab and enter the details as shown below: The Extension Creator allows you to specify up to 12 parameters for each DLL Function. In Step 1. we opened the Win32 Programmer's Reference to the Beep Command Usage Guide.Beep function.Creating an Extension Step 3 Scroll through the list of functions in the Command List and select the kernel32. we know that only 2 parameters are required for the Beep Function. Once loaded. In this case. can help assist in debugging your custom command. .down box and complete the Description and Sample Value for each. You can also specify a return value at the bottom which. we know from the DLL Function documentation that the return value should be a Boolean. click on the "Execute" button to test. Upon first test. you should here a System Beep which lasts for approximately 1 second. For the purpose of this example. Click on the "Command Tester" Tab: With the parameters set and sample values provided. When clicked. we can now proceed to testing our command. you need to Load the Library by clicking on the "Load Library" button at the bottom. although not required. set the value for each parameter to 1000. The extension file format is .zincx . If your test failed to play the beep sound. click on FILE and Create Extension: This will allow you to specify an extension name and path to save to. exit the Extension Creator. Once you are happy that your new Custom Command is working correctly in the Command Tester. The value "true" should also be visible in the Result Pane. then the value "false" should be visible in the Result Pane which would mean that communication was made but a parameter or multiple parameters were incorrectly specified. Continue to Step 4 .The exact syntax as it should be entered in your Actionscript is also generated in the Code Pane. Once you have created your Extension file.this is the file that you can distribute and share with other users. Please Note that these items are case sensitive. Continue to Step 5 .Creating an Extension Step 4 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and add a button with the following code which has been copied from the Command Tester: on (release) { myResult = mdm."1000").DLLFUNCTION() In this case. so be sure to enter the command exactly as it is shown in the Extension Creator. the CUSTOMCLASS name is "KERNEL32" and the DLLFUNCTION name is "Beep".Extensions.KERNEL32. Create a Dynamic Text box on the canvas and label it "myResult" and export your SWF movie.Beep("1000". } All Custom Commands created with the Extension Creator always follow this format: mdm.Extensions.CUSTOMCLASS. When the Projector runs. A summary screen will be displayed which shows the information contained within the . In addition. your extension will be listed in the Extensions Window.zincx created in Step 3. To install the extension.Creating an Extension Step 5 Launch Zinc™ v2. Ensure that you select the new extension before compiling your projector: With the new extension selected.zincx file.5 (if it's not still open already) and exit the Extension Creator. click on "Install". a return value will be sent to the . click on the button created in Step 4 and the custom {mdm}Script™ Command will execute a System Beep. Once installed. Click on the "Install Extensions" button at the bottom and select the . compile a Projector. Select the SWF file you created in the previous as the input and then click on the "Extensions" Tab. This tutorial is a very simple example of how to create a simple custom {mdm}Script™command but very complicated procedures and functions can also be executed.dynamic text box "myResult".com/exchange .0 API by hundreds and can also be shared with other users.multidmedia. Creating extensions can increase the {mdm}Script™2. Extensions can also be submitted to the MDM Exchange at http://www. b) This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2. Tray Icon Menus and Right Click Menus.5 .5.0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2.Custom File Menu Introduction With Zinc™ v2. you can build your own custom File Menus. Creating dynamic menus are done at runtime using {mdm}Script™ which means that you can change menu structure at any point in your Projector! Notes a) This tutorial will guide you through creating a File Menu but the same methodology is applied to Context and Tray Menus. When "frame" is set. These methods can be either "function". Expand the Actionscript window and add the following code: mdm. "frame" or "variable".menuType = "frame".Custom File Menu Step 1 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and select the first frame of the timeline. the menu item "Open" would set the variable "menu_Open" to "true". the File menu Item(s) will move the playhead to a frame label of the same name within your movie. there are three methods which can be used to handle a selected item. For example. In this example. the SWF Movie Playhead will move to a frame of the same name. When "variable" is set. Continue to Step 2 . the File menu Item(s) will set a variable of the same name (with the prefix "menu_") to "false" as default. you can use the System Event onMenuClick_* to execute a function directly when the user clicks on a Menu Item.Menu. When "function" is set. and "true" when clicked. When creating custom File Menus. we have the set the method to use to "frame" which means that when a menu item is selected by the user.Main. insertItem("File".Menu. The next 2 Commands assign sub entries (File Menu Items) to the FILE Header.Main. and the sub-entries are "File Menu Items". stop(). "Another Menu Item"). We have also placed a stop action at the end to stop the playhead at Frame 1. mdm. The first Command creates a new File Header entry called FILE. mdm.Main. These are the terms used within {mdm}Script™ to construct Custom File Menus.Menu. The entries across the top are referred to as "File Menu Headers". "Menu Item Here").insertHeader("File"). Add the following code: mdm. Continue to Step 3 .insertItem("File". This is the basic structure that all File Menu's adhere to: The above example is a screenshot of the File Menu from Notepad.Main.Menu.Custom File Menu Step 2 We will now add the {mdm}Script™ Commands to create the actual File Menu structure. This can be anything you want so long as it indicates that the playhead is now on the frame labeled "Menu Item Here". Continue to Step 4 . Once created. draw a shape on the canvas or write a custom message.Custom File Menu Step 3 Create a new keyframe anywhere on your movie timeline (Press F6 in Macromedia Flash to create a new keyframe).Please take care to enter the label EXACTLY the same as the code in Step 2. Flash is case sensitive: On the selected keyframe. Create a new keyframe somewhere else in your movie. label the frame as: "Menu Item Here" . and repeat the above steps but label the frame "Another Menu Item". That's it! You can add as many File Headers and File Items as required. and also include Item dividers to group certain options. . As soon as the Projector launches. it will construct the File Menu which should look like this: When you click on one of the File Menu Items.Custom File Menu Step 4 Export your movie and compile a Projector with Zinc™ v2. your projector should navigate to the associated frame (ie. the Frame which has the same name Label). UPDATE. ASP or CGI as Zinc™ v2. *Microsoft Access Databases can only be connected offline. Notes a) This Tutorial will go through the steps of connecting to a local Microsoft Access Database. To connect to an online Access Database. you can practically connect to any Database Type! Zinc™ v2.Database Connectivity Introduction Zinc™ v2.5 .0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2. c) This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2. and with added ADO support.5 supports SQL statements which means that you can execute all INSERT. DELETE and SELECT commands on your database connections.5 can connect to Microsoft Access* and MySQL Databases. you would still need to use ASP. The same methodology can be applied to MySQL Databases. There's no need for server side scripts such as PHP. b) This Tutorial assumes a basic understanding of Databases and SQL statements.5 creates a direct connection with the Database. mdb".Database Connectivity Step 1 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool). Select Frame 1. expand the Actionscript Window and enter the following code: mdm.mdb".connect("myDatabase.MSAccess.connect("myDatabase. Continue to Step 2 . Nothing else is required. If your database is password protected. You can also connect to a Database over a network. or using an absolute path to a fixed location. you can include the password as a second parameter: mdm.mdb".Database.Database. This assumes that the MDB file is in the same directory as your Projector. "myPassword"). The first step is to make a connection with our database which we shall assume has the name "myDatabase.MSAccess. "myPassword"). MSAccess. then store the data into a result set.select("SELECT * FROM myTable"). but it will prepare it for access.Database Connectivity Step 2 To read data from a database we have to use a SQL statement which will read data from a database table.5 will execute the SELECT statement. To do this we have to make a statement that contains the SQL SELECT command. The data will remain there.Database. The above command (inserted on Frame 1 after the connection command) would select all of the data from the table "mytable" and store it in a record set for access. The following command will NOT actually place the data in your Projector. Continue to Step 3 . An easy SQL SELECT statement (assuming that the database has a table that is called "mytable") would be: "SELECT * FROM mytable": mdm. waiting to be accessed until another SELECT statement is executed. Please note that Zinc™ v2. You can dump the data in a simple HTML 1.Database Connectivity Step 3 Zinc™ v2 provides several ways of accessing the data in a result set.0 format or a simple XML format. create two buttons. create a Dynamic Text Box and label the var "dbResult": Select the first button. The only difference between the two is the format of the data. The first two methods. On your main movie canvas. expand the Actionscript window and enter the following code: on (release) { . are both a "dump" of the result set contents. Underneath the buttons. An alternative method is to target a specific field and row within the record set and obtain the result for that entry only. } Select the second button and enter the following code in the Actionscript window: on (release) { dbResult = mdm. the first parameter is the Row Index within your Database table.dbResult = mdm.getField(1.MSAccess.getHTML(). 1). Continue to Step 4 .Database.Database. and the second parameter is the Column Index.MSAccess. } In the above code. . yet very simple to use. the dynamic text box should be populated with the results of the record set in simple HTML. UPDATE and DELETE Statements on your database using standard SQL formatting. As soon as your projector runs. you can also perform INSERT. it will connect to your Database and run the SELECT statement.Database Connectivity Step 4 Export your movie and compile a Projector with Zinc™ v2. Pressing the second button will return just a single entry of the value at the specified row and column index.5. If you click on the first button. In addition to simply reading values. Database connectivity is an extremely powerful feature. You can also change the shape of your projector at runtime using just a single {mdm}Script™ Command. makes them invisible). Masking projectors requires a BMP file in a specific format which "masks" certain areas of the projector (ie. Using this technique.Masking Projectors Introduction Zinc™ v2. you can create projectors of all shapes and sizes which are compatible with all Windows Operation Systems (from Windows 98 and upwards) and also Mac OSX! Notes This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2.5 .5 allows you to create an organic shaped projector during build time.0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2. 300 x 300 pixels. This can be any shape or design but keep in mind that all of the areas which are black (#000000) will be made transparent on your final Projector. An example is shown below: In this example.Masking Projectors Step 1 Open up your favorite image creation software (MS Paint is fine if you don't have anything else available) and create a new image. For the purpose of this tutorial. we want our final Projector to look like a speech bubble. Using just the colors white (#FFFFFF) and black (#000000) create a mask for your movie. save it as a BMP file. although any name is acceptable.bmp. Please note that your BMP file should be 24bit True Color. name your file mask. Continue to Step 2 . Once you are happy with your image. mdm.Forms.bmp is in the same folder as your Projector. "MainForm").Masking Projectors Step 2 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and add a button with the following code: on (release) { mask = "mask. It applies the Mask to the Form specified in the Command Structure (in this case.showMask("myMask. The example above assumes that the mask. Please note that when using external mask files (BMP's) they must be in the location specified.MainForm.bmp"). Continue to Step 3 .bmp". } This Command is used to initiate the mask and create the organic shaped projector. .Masking Projectors Step 3 Export your movie and compile a Projector with Zinc™ v2.5. Once your Projector has opened. With Zinc™ v2. click on the button and the Projector will apply the mask and change shape! Masks can be used to create any shape Projector and add to the impact created with your final project.5 you can easily use multiple masks during runtime. Packed Files can be extracted to any location on the users system. but the Temp directory is recommended.5 . Packed Files must first be extracted before they can be used.Packing & Extracting Files Introduction Packing additional files into your main Executable is an excellent method of keeping your entire application to just 1 file. This tutorial will go through the steps to pack additional files and then extract them.0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2. Notes This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2. Using this method ensures that all required files are always present and available for use when needed. Continue to Step 2 .desktop+"myFile. mdm. extractedFile). expand the Actions Window and enter the following code: on(release){ packedFile = "myFile.Packing & Extracting Files Step 1 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and create a new button on the canvas.tif". and attach the following code to it: on(release){ packedFile = "myPic.txt". extractedFile).extractToFile(packedFile.Library.txt".Library.Paths.Application.0 Properties to retrieve the Desktop and Temp Paths. } Create a second button. } Each of these two buttons extracts a different packed file to a different location.Application. The first is extracting a TXT file to the DESKTOP whilst the second button is going to extract a TIF file to the users TEMP directory.txt". extractedFile = mdm. mdm.System.temp+"myPic. extractedFile = mdm.System. With the button selected. Notice that we use the {mdm}Script™ 2.extractToFile(packedFile.Paths. Once you have added the appropriate files. click on Build to compile your Application.5. we use the new Library Window as shown below: Click on the lower buttons to add and remove files to your Projector. Notice that our Files have the same names used in the Extract Commands in the previous step. Select your SWF as the Input File. To Pack Files in your Zinc™ v2. Continue to Step 3 . You can use your own filenames.5 Projector. but you must be sure to change the references in the Flash Movie and re-export before compiling the projector.Packing & Extracting Files Step 2 Export your SWF movie and launch Zinc™ v2. This will extract the "myFile.you can check that the file has been extracted correctly in Windows Explorer or by checking your System Desktop. use Windows Explorer to check that the file has been extracted correctly. (Please note that it may take a second or two to show up.tif" will be extracted to the system Temp Directory. you can proceed to use them as needed by your application! . Click on the second button and the file "myPic. depending on the size of your file).txt" file to the System Desktop . Again. Once files are extracted.Packing & Extracting Files Step 3 Launch the Projector and click on the first button we created in Step 1. ANY data. The packet will be sent to the destination by "hopping" though the various network points.5 Projector to send information to a third party application. A projector-to-projector message is designed to SET variables on the remote Flash Application.Socket Communication Introduction Zinc™ v2. This form of communication is based on the Datagram transfer of information through a TCP/IP network.5 . to send data to another Zinc™ v2. or combined literals and variables. However. This could be useful if you wanted a Zinc™ v2. A text can contain. the text has to be formatted in a certain way. Notes This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2. Sending Data is composed of three parts: · · · The destination information: This is the IP address. The message to be sent. This means that a packet containing the message and the destination IP address and port is constructed every time communication is required and then sent over the network. theocratically. The message is text that is either literal or in a variable. The port number of the client computer.0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2.5 provides a way to send and receive information to and from ANY computer by using the UDP protocol.5 projector. Socket Communication Step 1 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and select Frame 1.Network. Label this box "cMessage". Expand the Actions window and enter the following code: mdm. Select the TEXT tool and create a dynamic text box anywhere on the movie.Socket.UDP. In this case. . we have set the port to "4000". This Command is required to enable the socket server. After creating your text box. export your Movie as a SWF called "Client.swf".startServer(4000). It has only one parameter which is the port that the projector is instructed to listen to. Continue to Step 2 . Network.0. mdm.0.Socket.Socket Communication Step 2 Create a new file and create a new button or select a pre-made one from the Button Library.0. "cMessage@eq@"+sMessage). we are instructing the Projector to send a message to IP 127. 4000.send("127. Place this button anywhere on your movie and copy the following syntax onto the button: on (release) { sMessage = "Hello World".5. Continue to Step 3 .0.1". } If we break this command down.1 on Port 4000.UDP. We are then setting the variable cMessage in the client Projector to the value of sMessage (Which has been set to "Hello World"). Export this movie to a SWF called "server.swf" and then compile both SWF files to Projectors using Zinc™ v2. the communication would have failed. If we had set the listen port in Step 1 to 4001. and then press the button on the "Server" to send the message to the "Client" Projector. unless we sent the message to port 4001. .Socket Communication Step 3 Run both Projectors. The message "Hello World" will be displayed in the Client Projector.0.0. It is important that the client projector is also "listening" to the correct port.1 because we are testing it on a local server) and on the specified port number (in this case 4000). The Command in Step 2 sends the contents of the variable sMessage to the IP address specified (in this case 127. For example. ASF and Real Media Video Files and control them independently! Notes a) Please note that for each video type. This means that you can now load multiple instances of AVI. QuickTime. the appropriate codec or Plug-In is required on the end users system. MPG.0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2. b) This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2.5 expands upon video integration by introducing multiple video instances.Using Video Introduction Zinc™ v2.5 . using Windows Media Player 9 Commands would require the end user to have Windows Media Player 9 Installed.

Continue to Step 2 . using constructors like the one above means you can create several instances and refer to them quickly and easily by their object name. 0. Using Video Step 2 Create a new keyframe on Frame 10. but you can specify another file if you have one in the same folder. In this example. 240. expand the Actionscript window and enter the following code: myVideo2 = new mdm.WMP6 (320. 320.mpg") The above code creates a new video instance and loads the same file next to the previous instance. 0. we have used the same video clip. "myClip. Continue to Step 3 . Notice that the X Position has been set to 320 which places it right next to our previous instance. Continue to Step 4 .play() } The two buttons have been set up to act as Play and Stop buttons for the first video instance (myVideo). Select the first button. If you wish. expand the Actionscript window and enter the following code: on(release({ myVideo.stop() } Select the second button and enter the following code: on(release({ myVideo. create two buttons at the very bottom. repeat the process by creating two additional buttons for the second video instance.Using Video Step 3 On your main movie canvas. Remember to change the instance name to myVideo2 on these buttons. If you wanted. A few seconds later.Using Video Step 4 Export your movie and compile a Projector with Zinc™ v2. The code for the second frame was placed on Frame 10. Press the buttons you created in the previous step to control the video instances independently. on the same frame. .5. but this was just to demonstrate that video can be loaded at different points in the timeline. you could have created two (or more) instances at the same time. the second instance will load next to it. the first video instance should load up at the size and position we set in Step 1. As soon as your projector runs. 5 .5 provides a method to declare variables without using Actionscript.5 Compiler and these will be available from Frame 1 onwards in your Application. You can specify variables and their values in the Zinc™ v2. In addition. These provide even greater levels of security and are ideal for keeping Passwords and other Sensitive Data safe. Secure variables can also be declared which are not available until requested. Notes This Tutorial uses {mdm}Script™ 2.0 which is only available from Zinc™ 2.Global & Secure Variables Introduction Zinc™ v2. Global & Secure Variables Step 1 Create a new file in Macromedia Flash (or your preferred SWF Authoring tool) and select Frame 1. Create a new button on the canvas. expand the Actions window and enter the following code: on (release){ SecureVarValue = mdm. Continue to Step 2 .Application. } This Command is used to request Secure variables. and with the button selected. Create two dynamic text boxes and label one "VarValue" and the other "SecureVarValue".getSecureVar("mySecureVar"). 5 and select the SWF.Global & Secure Variables Step 2 Export your SWF Movie. Launch Zinc™ v2. Cycle through to the "Global/Secure Vars" Tab and enter a Global Variable and a Secure Variable as shown below: Continue to Step 3 . 5.Global & Secure Variables Step 3 Compile the Projector with Zinc™ v2. . Using Secure variables are an excellent way to keep sensitive data in the Projector Wrapper until required. Once you click the button we created in the previous step. Extremely useful for Database and FTP passwords. If the Variables were entered correctly. the secure variable will be requested and the "SecureVarValue" text box will be populated with the Secure Value. your "VarValue" text box should be populated immediately with the appropriate value.

Runtime Shared Libraries are not supported in Zinc™ v2 Projectors for Windows or Mac OSX. We recommend you plan your Zinc™ v2 projects with this in mind before starting. .Are Shared Libraries Supported? At present. Drag & Drop SWF Files onto Zinc™ v2 Dragging a SWF file onto the main Application will create a new Project with the SWF just "dropped". dragging a SWF file onto the Preview Window will just replace the current SWF and retain all current Project Settings. . However. . If your Project only requires a System Event without the need for any {mdm}Script 2. please initialize events with: mdm.0 Commands.Events not Working System Events will only work if other {mdm}Script 2.0 Commands have been used.initevents().

LoadMovieNum(mdm.swf".Path+"myMovie. . when coding for the desktop.path which contains the current location of the EXE File. However.Application. The second reason is that the internal SWF isn't ever physically available on the users Hard Drive (it is contained within the EXE shell) and therefore doesn't "know" what it's current location is and. no matter where the Projector is. more importantly. it could be from the Hard Drive. It will also work across all operating systems.Loading External SWF's Most path references online are relative and there is no need to use absolute paths.Application. it is always advisable to use absolute paths for a number of reasons: Firstly. For this reason. It could be from a CD. all paths should be appended with the property mdm.path is recommended for all projects as it guarantees the path to the SWF will be found correctly. 5). It will also work across all operating systems.Application. Notes Using mdm. a similar approach to loading external SWF files must be adopted. Whether you are loading FLV files using actionscript you must specify the url of the FLV file as an absolute path using mdm.Application. . The correct Syntax should look like this: myMedia.setMedia(mdm. "FLV").
