hi
i'm new in this forum, so greetings to anybody.
i've a question about 3dfa:
i've tried to build a button in which every state is a entire movie, but the movie stop, when i leave the button (well that make sense) but if i stay there, the movie is hanging afterwords.
has anybody solved this problem?

my wish is to create a button who, when is klicked, plays the full movie and then return to normal state.

hope this is understandable and thanks.

What you could do is use a hidden child movie that you show when button is clicked while hiding button, then at end of child movie show button and hide child movie.
