on the \_root of my original movie I have a mc labeled “kids” that when clicked. opens a popup consisting of 10 pictures in the main time line (each pic in it’s own frame). how do i pass a variable from the original movie to the popup directing the playhead to a set frame # or instance name displaying a specified pic?

any help would be great.

thanks
