- DESCRIPTION:
- This application simulates a hand held remote
- control. The tool bar buttons let the user select
- which device they want to play. The animated
- push buttons allow the user to play, stop,
- rewind, fast forward and pause. When the
- user presses a tool bar button for the wave,
- video or MIDI players, a file dialog appears to
- allow them to select a wave, video or midi file.
- After the user presses the OK button on the file
- dialog, the file is loaded. The user may press the
- Play button at this time. The CD select button
- does no more than setting the remote control to
- CD mode.
-
- CONCEPT/FEATURE:
- Illustrates toolbar, animated push buttons and
- multi media players.
-
- SPECIAL NOTES:
- A CD must be in the player prior to starting this
- application.
