Hi everybody!

Does anybody know that if Swish uses all of the AS commands that Flash uses?

I already know that Swish, compared to Flash, sucks; but doing a proyect that needs to be delivered in a very short time, and requires simple animation, had to use Swish…

Anyway, the thing is that i’ve created a document in flash that loads swf’s (made on Swish) on each frame, as an explicative tour for a software; and the idea is that when every swf finishes, goes to the next frame. I’ve added at the end of every swish file this:

function (\_root.gotoandPlay.(“framelabel”)();

but nothing happens…

Any recomendations…? Appreciate your time…

```auto
function (_root.gotoandPlay.("framelabel")()

```

is not proper actionscript anyway.  
try this:

```auto
function() {_root.gotoAndPlay("framelabel")}

```

But still the question in the air… all AS commands for Flash work propperly with Swish?
