Ok, so i have been learning little by little some AS through Kirupa, but i still need the help. So here is my issue i have this code below that allows me to switch between images using a mc button, but when i press, the mc loads but does not play the fade in? Can someone explain what is missing in this code that skip the play?

## stop(); MC1.\_visible = true; MC2.\_visible = false; Btn2.onPress = function(){ //brings up the second movieclip MC1.\_visible = false; MC2.\_visible = true; } Btn1.onPress = function(){ //brings up the first movieclip MC2.\_visible = false; MC1.\_visible = true; }
