Play Reverse

[skomi101]

Hello there,

I need to know if Flash can play the movie reverse, without having to re-animate the elements.
It's probably asked many times but I cannot find the answer.

Thanks

your_mc.prevFrame() will step you backwards in the movie.

To have the whole movie run, I think you need to either create a function that's called via onEnterFrame.

maybe something along these lines.


playbackwards = function(){
//Frame to go back to
goBack = 2;
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if (yourMC._currentframe == goBack){
this.onEnterFrame = null;
}else{
yourMC.prevFrame();
}
}
}
