Hello,
this is my problem: I’ve created a flash that, when all of the designs and buttons are in place, it stops because I put in an action script layer for it to stop.
YET, I added a layer of small moving lines that I want to loop constantly in an area of the flash.
Does anyone know how I can do that? What is the action script for that?
Many thanks,
Flobair
That layer of moving lines should of been placed into a movieclip of its own so that it can play seperately from the main timeline.
The stop(); you placed on the main timeline will not effect the movieclip so it will be able to loop.
ok, in other words, I create a full flash movie and then insert it into my main one?
No, flash allows you to create movieclip symbols which allows you to create mini animations that have their own timeline.
Just go to Insert > New Symbol and check Movieclip and you’ll be given a whole new timeline to work with.
got it. can I turn the layer I’v created (which has the buttons with the moving lines) into a movie symbol? I’ll figure it out … thanks so much for your help, though.

You can place anything in a movieclip. You can place movieclips inside movieclips and buttons inside movieclips as well.
