MovieClip question

[devalex8844]

Suppose i want to have a movie clip with 3 frames . I want to put on frame 0 a circle , on frame 1 a rectangle and on frame 2 a bitmap
How do i instanciate a MovieClip instance only with 3 frames ???
I want to manipulate the movieclip with the play and stop methods ; in don't want to use timers or other stuff ... Practically what i want is a sprite with a movieclip inside it , and i want to be able to manipulate it with play and stop ... Plan simple .... How do i do that ???

Open Flash 9

Create a new MovieClip

Put the content on the specific frames

either place it on the stage or create it with ActionScript from the library.

how do you open flash 9 and what is flash 9
how do you put the contents by code on the specific frames(that is in AS3.0)

Was this reply of yours a joke or what ????

Flash 9 is the new version of Flash and the beta is available to users with a valid flash 8 license over at abobe labs.

you can't out the contents on a frame by code, which is why i told you to use the Flash 9 IDE.

no, but obviously you made no effort to try and understand it.

I've started to learn AS3 recently and i'm in doubt with certain things like :

Is a MovieClip , say created in Flash 9, more quick than a clone of a MovieClip created in as3 and coded with timers and sprites . Are there any disadvanteges from the performance perspective ?
