    I'm using Koolmoves to spice up a simple personal web site. I'd like to use a text effect, have it play once, and then have the text stay on the page static. The words will fly onto the page and then stay there not moving. I set up the movie using the text effect template, go to "play" on the menue bar, and highlight "once". Movie keeps playing in a loop no matter what. Can I do what I'm trying to do? Thanks.

    You have to either;

    1. Add a Stop Movie Frame event on the last frame. This is done from the sounds and events view.

    2. Add an aditional key frame and add a Goto and Play or goto and stop previuos action on the last frame. This is done from the sounds and events view.

    3. Script a stop action from the events and sounds view: _root.Stop(); or this.Stop();

    4. Adjust the SWF object's Param tag in the HTML. You find the Loop Param and change it to False. On your web page look for this: <param name="loop" value="true"> change the value to false. You do this from your HTML editor.

    This looping issue keeps coming up so it probably warrants a form specifying export options.
