FLASH: MC behavior

[Brian]

(Flash 4) I have been noticing that MCs behave differently from time to

time, and was hoping someone could enlighten me:


I have a project where I have an MC that has a series of images that go by

in sequence, each staying up 4 seconds or so before the next one appears.

I have found it necessary to use the same number of frames in the Scene

where it's being used that are in the MC so that the MC will run at all.

Other times, on other projects, I recall not having to do this with an MC...

one frame has been enough, which was my understanding of how they work.


Is this right? Are there particulars about using MCs in various situations?


Somewhat confused,
