why does my movieclip flash the last frame before it plays? i don’t get it… the actionscript for another movie clip contains the following:
[AS]stop();
_root.greenbox.play();
_root.greenbox._visible = true[/AS]
if you want to see my .fla, plz post, and i’ll put it up
thanks
yeah… i think it would be a good idea to put a fla up to have a look at… what u have written there is a bit general…
I’d be glad to help… or try to atleast… =P

the only one that does anything so far is the green one
Hey, Yeldarb, hows the ship?
Back to this question, your problem was that you werent stopping the green box movieclip from playing. Even though you made it invisible it was still playing.
So you can either put a stop(); action in the timeline of the Green Square movie clip.
Or
on the root timeline where you have:
_root.greenbox._visible = false;
just add:
_root.greenbox.stop();

oh, i see, thanks a lot 
the ship’s doing alright… still at about the same point, because i’ve been redesigning my sight… someone brought it to my attention that my current design may be infringing on apples copyrights… i don’t think so, but better safe than sorry
Really? Whats the URL to your site? I’d like to have a look please,
