Hi guys,

I just spent an hour searching for a TIMER that allows a movie to stay in a specific frame for maybe 6 seconds then automatically goes to the next. I’ve seen some but they are way off my actionscript capability.

I just need something simple,

enterFrame (pause for 6 seconds) then (gotoNextFrame)

something like that?

please point me to the right direction 🙂 thank you so much
