I have a symbol on the stage called "cart".... inside the symbol is my graphic that has a motion path put on it to the timeline (it is called "car_v1").
On my stage I have a code to hide the symbol cart with an external CSS class :
sym.$("cart").addClass( "hidden" ); ( this is the css - .hidden { display: none; } )
I have a function that calls an external Javascript file.. from that external file I want to get the timeline animation to work:
Here is the function called:
checkCar();
and here is the function:
function checkCar() {
if (AdobeEdge.countCar == 5){
AdobeEdge.getComposition("EDGE-172492634").getStage().$("cart").removeClass( "hidden" ); // this works!
AdobeEdge.getComposition("EDGE-172492634").getStage().$("cart").play(); //doesn't work! <----this is the line I need help with!
// sym.getSymbol("cart").play(); // this works inside of edge and the timeline animation runs!!!
}
}
Can anyone help me get the play function to work from my external Javascript file?
