on timeOut
Syntax
on timeOut
statement(s)
end
Description
System message and event handler; contains statements that run when the keyboard or mouse is not used for the time period specified in timeOutLength.
Always place an on timeOut
handler in a movie script.
To have a timeout produce the same response throughout a movie, use the timeoutScript
to centrally control timeout behavior.
Example
This handler plays the movie Attract Loop after users do nothing for the time set in the timeoutLength
property. It can be used to respond when users leave the computer.
on timeOut play movie "Attract Loop" end timeOut
