Won't play next frame after movieclip is done

Indeed you always need to be careful with the scope of things.

The deeper you go the more comes in front of your play() event.

For example, if you have a movie clip into a movie clip into a movie clip, you would need to have

this.parent.parent.parent.play(); but in a case like that using exportRoot would be more direct.

Hi,

If you are using HTML5 then try below...

If the movie clip is one level below the main timeline and you want it to resume playing on the main timeline then try this is on the last frame of the movie clip:

this.parent.play();

but if the movie clip is nested a few levels down and you want it to resume playing the main timeline then use:

exportRoot.play();

Hopefully this helps it to work.
