I made a button to start a movie with the action “goto” frame 15. However, when i test the movie, the frame just keeps on moving and moving and repeat itself from frame 1 to 15 without needing me to press the button to play it. What should i do so that the movie only plays when i press the button. I want to use “goto” like the flash turorial.
