Parameters

frameNameOrNum

Required. A string that specifies the marker label of the frame to which the

playhead branches, or an integer that specifies the number of the frame to which the playhead

branches.

movieName Optional. A string that specifies the movie that contains the frame specified by

frameNameOrNum. This value must specify a movie file; if the movie is in another folder,

movieName must also specify the path.

Example

This statement sends the playhead to the marker named start:

-- Lingo syntax

_movie.go("start")

// JavaScript syntax

_movie.go("start");

This statement sends the playhead to the marker named Memory in the movie named

Noh Tale to Tell:

-- Lingo syntax

_movie.go("Memory", "Noh Tale to Tell")

// JavaScript syntax

_movie.go("Memory", "Noh Tale to Tell");

The following handler tells the movie to loop in the current frame. This handler is useful for

making the movie wait in a frame while it plays so the movie can respond to events.

_movie.go(_movie.frame)

end

// JavaScript syntax

function exitFrame() {

_movie.go(_movie.frame);
