How do you make a layer loop?
 
Sort by date Sort by votes
If you want to make an entire movie loop put this in the last frame...

gotoAndPlay(1);

If you want to keep the looping confined to one layer then you'll need to have a looping movieclip placed in that layer as you can't just set one layer to repeat without affecting everything around it.

On the last frame, add a keyframe with a gotoAndPlay (1); action.
Mind you, if you don't have a stop action at the end of your movie, it should loop on it's own!
