Hi,  
I have a short movie. In frame 1 some MCs appears on the stage by onEnterFrame and increasing \_alpha. In frame 50, I want to zoom on these MCs by AS. The problem is that the fading continues even I have a if condition not to do that. How can I tell the movie stop fading and begin to zoom in frame 50?

thanks

you sure your timelines playing through past 50 (no stop action anywhere)? Try checking to see if it’s even reading the script by

```auto

onClipEvent(load) {
this._alpha = 0;
}

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if(this._currentframe < 50) {
this._alpha += 5;
}
else {
trace("it's reading");
}
}

```

Sandman9,  
The MC’s \_alpha goes from 0 to 100 and stops with the MC (\_alpha=100) on the stage. No message. I don’t have anything between frame 1 and frame 75. Just a keyframe in frame 1, another one in frame 75 and a MC on the stage. No stop(); .  
Strange! isn’t it?
