Re: FLASH: back button to movie clip label

[Dee Mahendra]

hello again

yes the movie clip in frame 6 does still exist, but for some reason the

playback head won't jump to the 'back' label within the movieclip at frame

5, it still plays the movieclip (frame 5)from start to finish. if anyone has

ideas please could they pass them on as i am fairly new at flash and am at a

standstill.


thanks

dee

Does the movie clip "square" still exist in frame 6?  If you have an

empty keyframe for the square mc at keyframe 6 then you can't tell

target it's timeline.  Otherwise it should work.
