When I print my movie by clicking a button with this code attached

my_print.onRelease = function() {
printAsBitmap(_parent._parent._parent.proModel, "bmax")
}

My movie replay's and goes back to the beginning. Can anyonw tell me how to keep my movie in the same place when the print button is released?

Do you know if there is a way to keep a layer from printing? There is one image that is on it's own layer and I don't want it to print.

I figured it out. The #p label was on a frame that did'nt have the stop command attached to it. So when I hit print it told the movie to go to the next frame. I put a stop command in the frame I'm printing and that fixed it.

try this:

my_print.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(); //put in the frame number you are on
printAsBitmap(_parent._parent._parent.proModel, "bmax")
}

if that doesnt work, maybe you can make the fla available to take a look at.

try:
my_print.onRelease = function() {
stop();
printAsBitmap(_parent._parent._parent.proModel, "bmax")
}
