tellTarget went out with Flash 4. Nobody uses that anymore. It is a
depricated function left in for compatibity with old versions. Now you just
use the instance name. If you want to avoid repeating the same instance
name a bunch of times you can use "with";

Hello all:

Is there a way to invoke the revealing of a slide only after the previous
slide has finished its out transition. What I have is a presentation with a
transition for each slide going into and out of the slide, but they overlap. I
would like to be able to wait until the previous slide is done with its
transition out and then have the next slide start its transition in. Is this
possible?

Thanks,

John

Absolutely. I had the hardest time above all when learning flash trying to
understand how to layer/nest things and where to put them on a timeline and
when and where to layer. But you can do this a few ways, but since I dont know
how you did it ill try and give you a few ways.

-Add another frame at the end of the fadeout trween. In the frame, make a call
to your next image via actionscript (try tellTarget).
-You could do all your images on 1 long timeline but this may not be realistic
if you have too many images.

Thanks for the reply, but what I am referring to has to do with the slides
application feature of flash mx 2004 professional. It allows you to add
transitions between slides but they seem to cross over one another rather than
allow one to play out until the end.
