Stop playback?

programming flash
1

I exported a .swf file from Macromedia Flash MX. The flash works well, however, it just keep looping itself.

Is there anyway to make it stop after all animation has been played? I tried at add an action “stop” in the last frame but that stops the whole movie at the 1st frame.

Why? Thanks a lot!

I bet I know what happened. When you inserted the stop on what you thought was the last frame, you didn’t first convert it to a keyframe. That, would put the stop on the first frame.

I just added it to the end, and it stopped fine.
