Just use a frame action Stop in a frame where the MC is present.

I'm confused: isn't the MC already moving?  If it's in a loop, OnRelease

can TellTarget the mc to go to a frame beyond the loop:


OnRelease

	TellTarget

		Target: /MCinstanceName

	GoTo and Play

		Frame label: "move-on"

	End TellTarget

End (On)

If the main timeline is stopped, put a frame action in the mc:


TellTarget

	Target: /

	Play

End TellTarget
