hi,

If I use the code as described below for offsetting a movieclip , I can’t seem to use it for two or more movieclips adressed by one and the same button. When I use for instance the following code, only one of the mc’s will show, the other won’t. Any ideas? Thanks,  
Jerryj

on(press){  
function cont() {  
cont1.\_visible=true;  
clearInterval(IntVal);  
//1000 = 1 seconde  
}  
IntVal = setInterval(cont,620 );  
}  
on(press){  
function txt1() {  
MC1txt.gotoAndPlay(2);  
clearInterval(IntVal);  
//1000 = 1 seconde  
}  
IntVal = setInterval(txt1,2000 );  
}
