Gif won't stop looping even with actionscript, loop box unchecked, and set to "once" for export

Question

Hi. Im in dire need of help. For my animation, I can't, for the life of me, get the animation to stop looping when I export as a gif. Ive tried everything. I put the

"this.stop();" action in a top layer on the last frame. I toggled and unchecked the loop option in the publish settings. In the export settings, I toggled and set the loop setting to "once". It works fine as an OAM file and stops at the last frame.. but doesnt for a gif. PLEASE HELP.

Hi there,Sorry for the issues you are dealing with looping GIF even after setting it as once.I suggest you ave a look at this thread also - Flash CC Publish Animated Gif ignores looping sequences?​ which might give you some insights.Also check for the file names and number of frames you are placing in.Hope this helps.Thanks!Ankush

I am not sure you can even stop a gif? I think that is the purpose of the gif is to continue to loop.
