Dialogue in Flash.

[Alvin-Earthworm]

Anyone know how to skip dialogue in Flash using the Enter key or the Space bar?
I know how to do it with buttons. (stop on the frame and program the button to move to next frame or resume playing the animation) But people don't like clicking the button with the mouse pointer.
I use Flash MX 2004.

It's simple

if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)
{gotoandPlay(#);}

Where "#" is the number of the frame that you want to go to.

Okay. Thanks very much.

Of couse, this will only work on an onEnterFrame function.

So, basically, on a frame of your movie in which the dialogue is displayed, have this code:

createEmptyMovieClip("Skipper", 5);
Skipper.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)) {
gotoAndStop(#);
}
}

Or:
this.onEnterFrame = function():Void {
if (Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)) {
gotoAndStop(#);
}
};

Thanks for the help, however is it possible to program it to skip to the next frame when the Space bar is released, It skips past the other dialogue if the button is held down.
