Hi guys,

I have 2 movie clips (let's say MC1 and MC2). What I want to do is - for instance:

MC1 on frame 20 stop and play MC2 from frame 10 to frame 90 then stop and continue to play MC1 from frame 21.

If you can help me with that - it will be very appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi lenag,

do this with simple frame actions, as in this code on frame 20 of MC1:

stop();
_root.MC2.gotoAndPlay(10);

then on frame 90 of MC2:

stop();
_root.MC1.gotoAndPlay(21);

That should do it. One thing - consider using frame labels cos as your movies get bigger and you add or remove frames, a reference to a frame label will be unaffected while these absolute references will be broken.

Thanks,

but I still can't get this working. Also tried to modify your code a bit, but no results. Do you have any idea what's going on?

thanks again.

make sure your clips have "instance" names
