Ok peeps, I have a wee little problem. I’m almost there in understanding it, but I’d be grateful for a helpful push in the right direction.
Rather than giving you all the details of the confusing thing that I’m putting together, I’ll spare you all the irritation and instead use the idea of an animated ‘ball’.
I have a movieclip ("ball_mc"), inside which is an animation of a ball that moves from A to B (there is a stop here), then back to A. I have placed an instance of this movieclip ("ball_mc_1") on the main timeline and would like it to be controlled by a button. Upon rollOver of this button, I would like the movieclip to play so that the ball travels from A to B and stops, then when you rollOut I would like rest of the movieclip to play so that the ball travels from B back to A.
What actionscript do I have to put on this button to achieve this?
I am still trying to grasp the idea of controlling a movieclip’s timeline within another timeline but am unsure of exactly what script to write to do that. I know that this is really a simple problem but your help would be VERY much appreciated.
