Unloading Movie Problem

programming flash
1

I know this is supposed to be pretty easy to do, but for some reason I can’t get this to work. In my first frame, I load a .swf of thumbnails into my main movie. On my second frame, I want that .swf to unload and not be there any longer. However, my .swf remains despite my efforts. Here is the scripting for the first frame:

[AS]_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“twinkle1”, 0)
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“twinkle2”, 1)
_root.twinkle1.loadMovie(“NavigationThumbs.swf”)
stop();[/AS]

twinkle1 loads the thumbnails .swf, twinkle2 is where the pics load when a thumbnail is clicked.

on Frame 2 I have:
[AS]_root.twinkle1.unloadMovie(“NavigationThumbs.swf”)
stop();[/AS]

Can anyone help?

You have to change the _levels…

First put this on the 1 frame:


_root.createEmptyMovieClip("twinkle1", 1)
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("twinkle2", 2)
_root.twinkle1.loadMovie("NavigationThumbs.swf")
stop();

then on 2 frame:


unloadMovie("_level1")
stop();

I never put any external .swf on _level0 cos that is the main timeline,
so i will load from _level 1 to up:smirk:

It still does not work with that code. Is there any other way or possibility?

sorry , my mistake!

on frame 2:


_root.unloadMovie("_level1")
stop();

That should work…:wink:
