I just started using screens and have a question.

I want to scroll a list of names. This is a tweened animaition on a screen timeline…

Under this list of names, i want the slideshow to progress. More specifically, I want to go to the next slide each time a specific name on the list passes.

In the tweened timeline for the names, I want to place a key frame at the point where the next slide needs to load.

for example, 15 frames into the scrolling list, i place a keyframe that contains the actions script\* mySlide\*.gotoNextSlide() … or something like that.

I thought I could do this with child frames…The parent frame has the scrolling names, and the child frames advance with each _mySlide_.gotoNextSlide(). Problem is, each child frame covers the parent frame?! (each child screen is a full screen photo)

Does this make sense? Is it possibe to do this in a “screens” project? I know i can do all this with timelines, but I want to take advantage of the transitiion behaviors for the child screens.
