未公布的lingo能把文章中所有英文转为大写
member().fontstyle=[#allcaps]
member().fontstyle=[#smallcaps]
转换后还可以恢复转换前的状态
member().fontstyle=[#plain ]

重现在开始，你可能要在程序里多使用ilk，这曾经是一个未公开lingo语句。在8.5以后很多这种语句都被公开了，但由于习惯的问题一直没受到重视
ilk(object)
ilk(object, type)指出对像的类型
还不在你的函数或行为里加上判断
使他更加的有效

直接返回年或月或日
date(the date).year
date(the date).month
date(the date).day
获得星期的安全方法是
week= (the systemDate-date(20000101)+6) mod 7

直接返回时分秒的方法
oldDelimiter = the itemDelimiter
set temptime= the long time
repeat with i = 1 to length (temptime)
tempitem = charToNum(temptime.char[i])
if tempitem < 48 or tempitem > 57 then
the itemDelimiter = temptime.char[i]
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
nhour=item 1 of temptime
nMinute=item 2 of temptime
nSecond=item 3 of temptime
put nhour&&nMinute&&nSecond
the itemDelimiter=oldDelimiter

这是一个加密你外部视屏的方法，应该可以用于wmv, avi, mpg, mp4
你需要做的下面工作，在视屏上用相关软件合成一个版权轨道，那么在一般的情况下这个视屏看起来就只有版权
在director中可以用
使用sprite(whichSprite).setTrackEnabled(whichTrack, trueOrFalse )
来关掉这个轨道就是正常显示了
声音也可如此，但注意在一般的情况是混音哦

可以实现图片序列循环，并且可以设定间隔时间

property pCommonName -- the string common in all the names of cast members in your film loop
property pLoopCount -- integer representing how many loops have executed
property pMemberList -- list containing references to all members in your film loop
property pCurrentMember -- integer representing the number of the current member in the memberList
property pFrameSpeed -- the number of frames that pass before the loop goes to the next image
property pFrameCounter -- integer used to track frames
property pPlaying -- boolean for whether the film loop plays or not
property pSprRef

不知道算不算技巧，当你做完一个projector的时候movie1……movie n，这个时候老板突然对你说每个movie里面加上控制音量的滑块，晕!! 我以前的做法是打开每个movie然后导入滑块滑条，然后添加行为，然后测试关闭！其实可以这样建一个cast把滑块滑条都导入再导入行为，链接为ext，然后在特定的几个通道里（每个movie这几个通道都是空的）添加滑条滑块行为，然后保存，然后copy那些帧，（其它的movie里导入外部cast），在stage里面的位置和movie1里一样，其它的movie里导入外部cast。也许不是技巧，但是可以给初学者带来些帮助。

dir自带的行为库都是英文的名称，对英文不好的初学者来说看起来很麻烦，即使有了中文行为库也不是很方便，打开Director MX\Libs下的*.cst文件编辑可以改成中文名称，改成自己能记得住的中文名称，那样以后用起来就方便了，熟悉lingo的人还可以更改其中的代码on getBehaviorDescription(me)部分这样鼠标悬停的时候可以中文显示其用处，用途等。
