Hi all,

I’m trying to create a movieclip object that contains another movieclip that continuously loops. My current problem is, no matter what I try, the embedded movieclip will not play inside the one containing it. It would be significantly more work to design the looping animations in actionscript than through using the IDE, so I would prefer not to have to dynamically create these loops. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance!
