[boodaddy]

Hello..

I need some help.. What I would like to do is stop the movie on a frame lets say frame 10 for 15 seconds and go to the next frame. Can anybody help me do that?

boodaddy, that xml code that you gave me, I am having trouble getting it to let me have more than one column. I tried to edit the first actionscript frame, but it was no use. Can you help me just one more time please?

Well you could always do it the primitive way of placing a frame further down the timeline, depending on what your fps is at will determine how many frames it'll take for 10-15 secs to go by

You can also use a timer I suppose. Set a variable :
myTime = Math.floor(getTimer()/1000);

myTime will now count the seconds

The best way That worked for me was...

This on the main timeline



this.createEmptyMovieClip("timer",50);
timer.onEnterFrame = function()
{
if (this.startTime>0)
{
var diff = getTimer()-this.startTime;
if (diff>this.timerLength)
{
this.target.play();
this.startTime = 0;
}
}
};
function pauseFor(theTime)
{
stop();
timer.timerLength = theTime;
timer.startTime = getTimer();
timer.target = this;
}



and then this on the frame you want to timeout

pauseFor(15000)


that would timeout for 15 sec
