Hi,

I have an Authorware file with a movie clip (mpg) that automatically plays first. Once that stops I want it to automatically play my Flash file. I notice that this does happen, but the mpg movie is still sitting there on top of the flash movie. How do I get rid of the movie? I tried a transition to fade it out, a decision thing, I'm stuck! I just want the video to go away and have the flash movie play. HELP!!

Dear Lisa,
Your problem may be solved by an interaction icon. Just after your movie icon put an interaction icon. And attach a calculation icon(cange its type from button to conditional icon) to this interaction. Be sure the branch property is set to "try again". This will cut the flow. The condition statement is :
MediaPosition@"MyMovie"=MediaLength@"MyMovie" and Automatic property of the conditional icon is set to "when true".

In the calculation put the code:
eraseicon(@"myMovie")
this will erase the movie when it reaches its last frame.. And then after the erase command you can use goto command to play any flash you want.

If I could not be plain enough just inform me I can send you a working sample...
