Debuging in Change to enviromental

Hello,

I have finished a movie that works perfectly under
Macromedia, but when I pblish it, I have a Script Error when
pressing a button. How can I debug these errors, or is there any
form of Publishing it without changing anything form one enviroment
to another?

Thank youDebuging in Change to enviromental
This sort of problem is usually due to not including an xtra
in the

projector. Does your button use a command that is from a
scripting xtra

(like FileIO or BuddyAPI for instance)? If so, then make sure
you add

that xtra to the projector (Modify, Movies, Xtras) or add it
to an

external xtras folder.



As far as debugging, it is always a little more difficult to
debug

projectors, but you do have a few tools. You did not say
which version

of Director you are using, and the methods of doing things
are different

in some versions. But, in a startMovie handler, you can set



the debugPlaybackEnabled = TRUE



That will give you a message window in the projector so you
can test

things like variables and whatnot



In MX 2004, there is an option in the Publish settings screen
to

''Display full script error text''. When that is checked, you
will get

more descriptive errors instead of ''Script error'' which tells
you

nothing. In older versions of Director, you would set this in
an ini file

That was the problem, now it works with the Xtra folder

With this was enough also to get the other errors
