Re: FLASH:TARGETING MAIN TIMELINE

[Robert Bleeker]

Hi Michael,


If you are trying to goto another scene from within a MC then you will have

to create a keyframe right at the end of your main timeline (can be

somewhere unused), label it something like "sceneChange1" and place your

Goto script there , now from within your MC you use:

Call("/:scenChange1")


Otherwise if you just want to Goto within the same scene you can use:

Tell Target ("/")

    Go To ...etc.

End Tell target
