just wondering how you add music to your animation. I dont want any special music start/stop controls if i dont need them, i just want a short loop of music to play in the background when the animation loads.:whistle:

all you have to do is select a keyframe in flash press CTRL+R (to import) select the music you want. Then open the library and drag it onto the timeline… select the number of loops you want and thats it…

if you want something more complicated look in flash help under “Sound Object” which will help u build volume and balance controls etc.

dunno what cowkiller is talking about ?
