Can't seem to stop Flash object from looping.

I've created a simple flash animation using the software: Vectorian Giotto. It looks great except I don't want it to keep replaying! I've tried using stop(); in final keyframes and I've also tried loop="false" in the html. That kind of works as it stops it from looping but then it plays how it should but goes blank. Any ideas?

You are doing something wrong with the stop(); you tried. Put the source here if you can. The html loop=false will not help you with what you are trying to achieve.

I can't access the source but all I did was add stop(); to the final keyframe. I don't know how to do anything other than that.

The stop you put in the last keyframe, stops the main timeline but not the timelines of the movieclips placed in the frames, so maybe you have a looping movieclip somewhere causing the problem you have.

I tried putting stop on all layers and still got nothin.

You didn't understood what I said. You must go inside all movieclips and put a stop in their last frame, not in all layers, this is useless.

I realized the problem...somewhat. The stop works! Whenever I do manual animations it works and doesn't loop. The only time it does not work is when I use one of the effects provided in the software. Those loop no matter what. Which stinks since those are really what I'd like to use!
