Hello all -->
question -->
This is what I’m trying to do… I have a movie clip and in that movie clip is a few text boxes next to each other (horizontally) each with their own stuff in them. (part#1, part#2, part#3 and part #4). I’ve added a motion tween to the clip so when the clip plays it acts like a continuous loop, like a news ticker of sorts…
I also have four buttons in this clip, button #1, #2, #3, and you guessed it, #4. What I want these buttons to do is make the playhead play and stop on the specific frame associated with that specific button… I know how to make it jump to and stop on a specific frame - but that’s not what I want it to do - I want it to play through the clip until that specific frame is reached (does this make any sense?). So say “part#2” is front and center and button #1 is pushed… I want the movie to loop through the whole movie, back to "part#1… then say button #3 is puched I want the playhead to start and play until it reaches “part#3” and so on…Kind of like a slot machine that stops on a specified number (which is associated with a button of that number).
This seems like something that should be a simple thing to do… Anyone care to shed some light on how?
Thank you all in advance for any help 
Cheers.
Oh, I’m using MX2004
