Looping movie clips

[Guest_imported]

Hi,

I am trying to load a movie from within a movie (basically a host movie that is made up of smaller movie clips- they all need to be independant of each other)

I am trying to get the main host movie to scroll down, looping through seamlessly to the start again - I don't want a big gap between the end of the movie and the start of the next loop. (i.e. show each line of text 1 to 15 horiztontally three rows at a time. when row 15 gets to the middle row, row 1 needs to come into view in the bottom row) probably confusing the hell out of you now!

Any tips would be appreciated.

Yes you are confusing the heck out of me! Let's see if I can do the same!
At the end of your 15th line, how about repeating the first 3 lines, and when line 1 of these added lines reaches - or is about to reach - the highest position of your 3 line window, to loop back to the beginning frame where your first original line was about to hit that position.
Should work, but maybe an empty line would also help to ease the transition, and somewhat indicate to the user, that this is a looping text rather than an ongoing one!

Makes sense to me! Does it to you?

When you get this confusion sorted out, maybe you can register as a member, and vote this post as helpful!
