Easy problem

I have created a new symbol (MC).

Inside is a 2 frame animation; frame 1 is alpha 0% and frame 2 is alpha100%

This would create a flicker effect.

At the end of my movie, on a new layer on the last frame i drag this movie clip from the library.

I want the mc to loop and everything else to stop.

What do i need to do?

I have never had this problem before. I just usually add the mc on last frame and add a stop action.

Please help =)

why dont you double click the mc and then do what you want inside the mc and then it will allways loop i hope this is what you wanted

yes that is what i normally do…the movie clip does not loop!

Do i put a stop action anywhere?
And where should i put the movie clip?

This is never a problem…i dont know why it is not working…

easy go to controll then loop play back

tellme if you need anymore help

No that does not work either!

I have uploaded part of my site as a separate fla.

The top layer contains a movie clip which contains an animation of a plus sign + flickering.

Can you take a look please?

sorry can you wait ten mins my comp going dead

sure!

I’ve been struggling with this since last night can you believe :-\

I know it’s something so simple, that i will smack my head against the computer screen when i find out…

what did you want it to do again?

o no your gonna have one hell of a saw head i just worked it out i tried the same thing but with a circle instead of a plus and it worked try drawing the plus instead

but why wont the text “+” work…it should…

well im not totaly shore about that but i had another text problem with that before but that time it was the font try a diff font

no that doesn’t work either!!

I have used this effect 100 times before! Why wont it work now?!

Is this wat u wanted?

no it’s not

this works look you can just put it in your fla

Yes exactly!

What the hell was i doing wrong?!

it was that font try it again with times new roman

What’s wrong with claudio’s fla, the plus loops, isn’t that what you wanted?

he just putted a stop in the last frame of the root, not in your mc
