Flash Tutorial
Step Six: Stopping the Movie from Auto Playing
As you will have seen in the previous section, Flash automatically animates your Movie. That is it plays from Frame 1 to the last Frame and then returns to Frame 1 and plays again. This is the default for Flash but in this Movie we do not want it to animate. To stop the Movie from animating you will need to do some very simple programming! Welcome to ActionScript. ActionScript is the Language that Flash uses to program Movies. You are about to learn how easy it is to do some basic ActionScripting.


Cross Ref: The Actions Panel has two modes. Script Assist On and Script Assist Off. As a beginner it is much easier to work with Script Assist switched on. If you want to learn more about Script Assist see the tutorial on the Actions Panel
Important Note: The following instructions will not work unless Script Assist is on.
Script Assist is on if ticked in the Action Panel Menu:>
Note: A small a should appear above the black dot in Frame one. This indicates that the Keyframe has some Actionscript attached to it.
Note the little 'a' in Frame 1.
