hi everyone. I have a problem and I’ve looked everywhere for a solution but haven’t found one yet. I’m trying to move the playhead to a specific frame inside a movieclip but can’t find any code that will allow this to happen.

In more detail: I have 5 movieclips that act as my main pages on my main timeline. from inside let’s say, from the 5th movieclip on frame 100 i want to move out of this clip and into the 3rd movieclip BUT NOT to go to frame 1 but move to frame 50 of the 3rd movieclip. I’ve tried everything but no matter what happens the first frame is always displayed, and i don’t want that.

Any ideas on how to jump to a specific frame inside a specific movieclip?
