Im wondering if there is anyway to detect what frame a MC is on.
i have a movie that dupes an MC 25 times and then goes to frame 15 on frame 15 i want ti to play another MC, but i dont want it to play the 2nd MC till the last of the first MC's is done... i know there is a current fram action, could that be used in conjunction with the movie clips name?
i had thought:
"
If ("/ani"&i_currentframe < 10)
Go to and Play (14)
Else
Begin Tell Target ("/wide")
Go to and Play (2)
End Tell Target
End If
"
would work.. but it didnt.. i have no idea what to try.. maybe a loop? who knows, if you have any suggestions they would be highly appreciated

to find out what frame an mc is on use:
Begin tell target("/mcname")
Set variable: "/:currentframe" = _currentframe
end tell target
note the /: before the variable "currentframe" this is setting the variable on the main timeline so you knwo where it is:)
Hope that helps!!
