Then create a counter. COUNTER = 1: Open CD door COUNTER = 2: Close CD door. There isn't a specific event that goes along the lines of "CD DOOR IS OPEN" but just compare an action to the counter. n/a

Tim I'm on here way too much Registered 25/08/2006 Points 132	29th October, 2006 at 08:48:16 - In that case Ploo probably not - I'm not sure whether "the big box" extension has that? Otherwise it's a good request for an extension. http://www.SilverNova.co.uk
Plooscva Registered 25/10/2006 Points 149	29th October, 2006 at 09:11:18 - ok i will check out that extension. I suggest putting that into current CD-Audio extension . I will edit when i check going out now. Plooscva n/a

Plooscva Registered 25/10/2006 Points 149	29th October, 2006 at 11:53:56 - True it is tray. In extension CD-Audio they call it door :/. Im not english so... Extemsiom The big box doesnt have that function. Still looking for it. Still need help im afraid . Plooscva n/a

Plooscva Registered 25/10/2006 Points 149	29th October, 2006 at 13:50:39 - When the cd door is closed there is 1/0 tracks. When its open its the same :/. Plooscva n/a

Plooscva Registered 25/10/2006 Points 149	30th October, 2006 at 03:52:57 - No :/ not the cupholder idiot. I will try explain again and maybe you will find an alternative solution. There is a button that does the function of eject. When you click you toggle a flag. When the flag is on the tray opens. When its off it closes. Eveyrthing works fine until: 1. You open the tray before the start of the program. Then it closes itself :/. 2. When you open the tray while the program is running manually then the tray will close :/. im thinking of two solutions but im not sure how to do it. 1. If there was an extension that could check the current state of the tray so at the start of frame if the tray is open turn the flag on straight away. 2. Maybe an extension with function Open/Close CD Tray. Then if the tray is open it will close. and if its closed it will open. Now that i explained the problem more clearly i hope someone will be able to help me out. Plooscva n/a
Plooscva Registered 25/10/2006 Points 149	30th October, 2006 at 05:03:38 - you're right in a way. It can be used as a cup holder. But i still need help . Plooscva :/ n/a
