Re: FLASH: How to let a movieclip playing a couple of times!!!!

[Cheri Harder]

Hi, Gert


You'll probably get slapped for re-posting, especially on a weekend when

hardly anybody here.  <grin>  But to avoid further comment about that...


You can set up a loop in your movie clip with a counter variable,

incrementing the counter on each iteration through the clip until the

desired # of passes have been played, then a stop action.


Set Variable: "i" = i+1

If (i < 3)

      Go to and Play (1)

Else

      Stop

End If



Or, you can just duplicate the frames once, ie, copy all frames and paste to

the previous "end" of the clip, and the movie clip is now twice as long,

then put a stop action at the end.


Or you could change the behaviour of the instance of the movie clip to

"graphic" and tell it to loop in the "modify instance" window, and then make

it only exist long enough to loop however many times you want it to loop.
