[F8] Reverse timeline animation with stops

[Thankful]

Hello my forum buddies!

Have a little trouble with Flash similar to this simple example. I attached both, SWF as well as FLA files, and I would greatly appreciate if someone can assist me here...

The problem: There are two buttons on the screen, forward and backward actions. There are 7 stop actions on the main time line. When button "forward" is pressed, little stick-man moves to the first stop point and then stops... pressing "forward" again, allows that little man to move forward to the next first stop point. Everything works perfectly till the end Stop point number 7.

I would like to get this... when button "backward" is pressed, man should move back to the first stop point to his left. Right now, when button "Backward" is pressed, little man moves all the way back without stopping at any Stop point...

FLA file is attached and SWF can be checked here:



Can this be easily solved ?

I appreciate any help ! Thanks in advance and you all have a wonderful rest of the day !

You bet...throw this after the stop(); on each of your 'Action Layer' frames:

if(_root.control._currentFrame==2){
	_root.control.gotoAndStop(1);
}

Hope that helps!!

Best Regards!
