reversing a movie clip in Mx

[vwpoon428]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to reverse a movie clip in flash MX? I basically want the movie clip I have imported into flash to go forward and backward.

thanks,

button_mc.onPress = function(){
   this.onEnterFrame = function(){
      your_mc.gotoAndStop(_currentframe-1);
      }
}
//
button_mc.onRelease=function(){
   this.onEnterFrame=null;
}

I think I should have been more clear. Now I can use the code you gave me for another project.

For this current project. The Background is a movie clip and all I need it to do is loop over playing forward and backward.


Sorry for the confusion

So on the last frame place this:

stop();
this.onEnterFrame=function(){
   gotoAndStop(_currentFrame-1);
}

On the first frame:

this.onEnterFrame=null;
play();
