RE: FLASH: Still that problem I mentioned yesterday

[Paul Willoughby]

I've only ever added sound to a movie once or twice, so I'm no expert. The

tutorial I ended up using I found via www.turtleshell.com (sorry, i don't

have the fall URL)and was for a music on/off button. In that tutorial I had

a movie clip with two frames. Both frames had the sound in, but one was set

to 'event' and the other was set to 'stop'. When I want the sound to play I

target the first frame, when I want it to stop I target the second frame.

Sounds simple, but I never would have found it out without the tutorial.

Are you saying that I should put the sound in an MC by itself?


> Are you using 4 or 5. If 4 are you viewing in the 5 player? 4 authoring

and

No 5... 4.

I'm not touching anything 5 'til I see less handwringing about it.


> But I would stay away from scenes. Why aren't you using movie clips?<


I use 'em all the time... but apparently not the way you are suggesting,

whatever that might be.

Does this mean I should take EVRYTHING I would have in a Scene and and put

it in an MC instead?

This sounds counterintuitive.

Run a whole cartoon sequence as an MC?

Please elucidate!
