Re: FN-FORUM: FLASH ANIMATION ACTIONSCRIPT HELP REQUIRED!

date posted 9th October 2007 18:00






Hello laura

Firstly I am having my own flash issues today so I may not be the best
expert


What I would do is rather than using a button to control the movie - create
a movie

I the movie place two buttons say at frame 1 and frame 20 both with a stop
action

So the first time you roll over the movie/button - you are rolling over the
button at frame 1 - place an actionscript to start playing the movie, when
you roll off the button at frame 1 it advances to the button at frame 20

Then place an actionscript on the button at frame 20 so that it stops the
movie when you roll over

I am sure someone has a better solution - but that should work
