A "simple" slideshow

Bonsoir Aurelian,

> ## This way you can cancel that message from being delivered

>    send advanceSlide to me in 2 seconds
>    ## Or whatever interval will do for you
>    global the_advancing
>    put the result into the_advancing
>    ## See above...
> end openCard
>
> on advanceSlide
>     visual dissolve
>     go next cd
>     ## Will do exactly what you need
>     ## and will even cycle forever when reaching the
>     ## last card in your slideshow ;-)
> end advanceSlide
>
> on mouseup
>    global the_advancing
>    cancel the_advancing
>    ## Stop the slideshow by just clicking anywhere in the stack
> end mouseup
>
> ## And you still have 5 statements left in THIS script :-)
>
> Hope that helps.

> Au revoir


to make it clear:

That is all in the stack-script, no other scripts necessary !!!
