Launching PDF from Projector File w/ Applescript - FashCS3 (fp8,AS2)

[naderslim]

Hello,

I realize this topic has been covered under Earlier posts (Flash MX) but I am wondering if my problem is player version related. I am trying to launch a pdf from a projector made in flash cs3 targeting player 8.

I have followed all recommended suggestions that work for others but to no avail.

- created my applescript, specified name of my pdf and name of my disc image, saved as application with the startup option unchecked
- placed it in an 'fscommand' folder on the root of my disc image which I made with Toast
- placed pdf in 'fscommand' folder and root of image (just incase)
- created a projector which has two buttons, both calling the same script but one specifying the extension (.app) as I wasn't sure if it was necessary or not.

I have attached an example and screen grab of my setup. I anyone can help out I would be grateful.

Can't you just use navigateToURL to load it in a similar fashion to how getURL was used back in MX?

(Edit: I don't have a Mac, btw - this is just a thought)

I have a similar problem with this. I do not want to use the navigateToURL command as it opens up a browser (Internet Explorer or Safari etc) then opens the finder/explorer window. Is there another option in AS3? I have played with the fscommand option trying to run an applescript with not much success. Running out of ideas.
Thanks in advance.
