I have a project that contain some fla files.  
Then I want add pause-resume function so, the viewer can stop and resume it.  
Specifically, there’s a frame/some frames with a label that hold specific scene.  
So, how I can add AS3 code to pause/resume in each frame/ label-frame?  
Must I stop the main timeline but how?  
Each frame have some movieclip or there’s a text label that receive different text/sentences after some interval time.  
I’ve try

```auto
 this.stop() or this.play() >>> but the content just play as usual.
 

```

Must I set play and stop each Movieclip? What about the text that appear based on timer or settimeout?  
I’ll appreciate the solution that given, I’ve stuck around for weeks.
