In mc1 just put a stop(); action at frame 20
Then at the end of mc2 put the action:
_root.mc1.play();
-Sam
Then at the end of mc2 put the action:
_root.mc1.play();
-Sam

I have a subscription to on-line reading....so i can pick say 10 books and read them....i got boss to pay for it.
But it don;t give you little bits like the question above. I managed to understand the little circle in the images for moving parts of the image...
Some of the action script is over my head but thats because i don't know the language syntax....i can code so i can understand the logic which is good......(i quite like making things visible with the action script rather than doing the properties).....
Got the preloader to do next.......
I got my first little project im working on with people walking through a shelter boss wanted it just still so i drew all the characters in illustrator now im moving them around the various dividers and having pull down windows where they get unchanged to take a shower....i got the rain to do for the shower so that be fun........(our company sell decontaimation shelters that why i make the people take the clothes off to take a shower).
He wanted 3D...(im like that will cost you 3grand for 3dmax or maya)...and some training for me.....I looked at both they are just great.........i like to do that also........but i not got 3 grand spare.
I appreciate your help and everyone elses........
I be back lol................
