Re: [Ming-dev] setting up a function call in movieclip

[Jay K. <ja...@he...>]

Thanks, this helped.

Now my next problem. :)

I want to stop a movieclip in my movie. I do this:

   movieClip->addInitAction( new SWFAction( "stop();" ));

But it plays one frame. If I try to stop it in onEnterFrame, like so:

	movieClip->add( new SWFAction(
		"onEnterFrame=function() {stop();};"
	) );

it still plays one frame. What am I missing? Do I need to do the stop 
in the movie's init action? If so, what's the ActionScript reference 
to the movieclip going to be? <myMovieClip>.stop().

Thanks.
