flash (macromedia): Hi,

A little help is required.

I have a movie clip, that i need to display on all frames on the main
timeline. I have animated the movie clip on its own timeline. However I don't
want the movie clip to play intially when i load the movie. I only want it to
play when a button is selected. Can anyone please help me to get the movie clip
to only play once a button is clicked.

Thanks

Place stop(); on first frame of this movie to prevent it from running.
Than give it some instance name, to do that, select the clip on stage and
hit CTRL F3 (it opens properties panel). Key in some name in the <instance
name> window. All you have to do is call it from button whenever you want
it to play using

on (release) {
mcInstanceNameHere.play();
}
