Actions for setting movie properties

Use the following actions to set movie properties:

(maximum).

Movie Set Rate Sets the movie’s playback speed: 1 for normal speed, 2 for double speed, 0 to stop, -1 or -2 and less

to play the movie backward.

Movie Set Looping Flags Sets the looping mode for movie playback:

• None Plays the complete movie once and then stops.

• Loop Plays the complete movie from beginning to end repeatedly.

• Loop and Palindrome Play the complete movie forward and then backward repeatedly.

you toggle the play selection on and off. To actually play the movie, use the Movie Set Rate action.

Music Play Note Plays a (MIDI) note with a sound specified in an Instrument Track.

Set Child Movie URL and Load Child Movie Use these two actions together. Set Child Movie URL specifies a URL

for a movie without loading it, so you don’t see any visible effect with this action applied alone. Load Child Movie

loads the URL you specified with the Set Child Movie URL action, and the result is that the changed content is visible.

GoTo URL Jumps the sprite to the specified URL. (This action is global; that is, it doesn’t control the movie playback

window.) The Link box lets you specify a web page. The Target box and menu are only for an embedded GoTo URL

action from within a movie in a web page.
