controlling swfs with lingo

controlling swfs with lingo

(OP)
Hi, I want to play a bunch of swfs in director in a straight forward sequence. However I want each swf to be in a single frame because it will be easier to manage, rather than stretching each swf to its correct length in the timeline (there are a lot of swfs). I am not too familiar with lingo, so could someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you very much

RE: controlling swfs with lingo

You only need one frame. Just put frame hold Lingo to hold the playhead:

on exitFrame me
   _movie.go(_movie.frame)
end exitFrame

Ahh, thanks but that only works if I have one single swf in the timeline. I have more than one. I want it to hold on frame 1 to play the swf there. Which it's doing now but when the swf has played to the end I want it to go to frame 2 and hold to play the next swf, etc etc

RE: controlling swfs with lingo

on exitFrame me
  if sprite(1).frame < sprite(1).member.frameCount then
    _movie.go(_movie.frame)  
  end if
end exitFrame
