pause on a frame 1

[sawfish]

How can I make my flash movie pause on a frame at any point throughout the movie, I know there is an extension called
'waitatframe', but is there another way of doing it?

 

[billwatson]

add a button

on (release){
mymovie.stop();
}


to get it going again change stop() to play()

Are you using MX?

If so you could use setInterval.

Define the following pause function, on the first frame of your movie:

function pause(){
play();
clearInterval(timer);
}

Whenever you want to pause your movie, just add a stop(); action on a frame followed by this:

stop();
timer = setInterval(pause, 1000);
//where 1000 is 1 second or 60000, 1 minute.
