Trying to use script to rewind movie clip??

[Eddie_E]

Hi

Ive used this script before to rewind a movie clip but its not currently working for a different type of movie. what i have is a movie clip to first load the intro then another movie clip within this which is the button. Within the button movie clip 7 frames are used with individual images on each with the following script on the first frame:

stop();
this.onRollOver = function() {
rewind = false;
this.play();
};
this.onRollOut = function() {
rewind = true;
};
this.onDragOut = function() {
rewind = true;
};


then i have a stop(); on the 7th frame. If you look at the following link you will see clearer what I mean. I want the button to roll backwards when the curser moves off the link. Any reason why the code is not working??

There is no code here that tells Flash to play in reverse. Are you sure it worked before? It just sets a variable named rewind, and calls no other functions. You would need to write something that would make the frames rewind.

A simpler method would be to just make the animation in the timeline, and then have it this.gotoAndPlay(8); where it would start playing from frames 8-14 which are a reverse of the animation.

thx for input but I replaced the


this.onDragOut = function() {
rewind = true;
};



this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (rewind == true) {
prevFrame();
}
};


and works fine now :-)
