Try adjusting the tween Transitions, if that’s what u mean. Don’t think it’s possible to change the Frame Rate of the movie, while playing. ---

no AS needed, its dead simple… I don’t know about flash 5, but if your using Flash MX just goto the Document Properties (right-click on a blank space and goto Properties) - there you will find a box that asks for the framerate, just put in the value you want. - John ---

nono…that will slow down the whole movie. what i mean is probably like at a click of a button, the framerate decreases/increases ---

Run a search, it was discussed here. You have to use the setInterval function. pom :cowboy: ---

um…sorry, i can’t find it ☹ can anyone explain setInterval to me? i tried running a search on it in the flash help, but it seems it only works for functions? i’m trying to slow down the global framerate and then speed it up again…possible? ---

“Flash allows for frame rates between 1 and 120. Once set, this global framerate cannot be modified at runtime. FPS Controller allows you to programatically change the framerate of any movieclip in flash.” get the extension here: [http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/exchange/extension\_detail.jsp?BV\_SessionID=@@@@0112906939.1035106269@@@@&BV\_EngineID=dhadcfgmekijebeecgemcgcgj.0&extOid=502105](http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/exchange/extension_detail.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@0112906939.1035106269@@@@&BV_EngineID=dhadcfgmekijebeecgemcgcgj.0&extOid=502105) (just in case the link doesn’t work as they use sessions, it’s called “FPS Controller Extension”) ---
