Pausing scenes

Hello,

I am new to Flash and went through a tutorial which showed how to put an image on the stage, create a tween, and then stop the scene with the Stop(); command in the action window. Would I would like to do it pause scenes. So in scene1 I would add an image, enlarge it using a motion tween and keping the object in place, then create additional scenes in the same manner, allowing the movie to loop continually. How can place a pause between scenes?

Thank you for your help and God Bless,

to pause on the current frame for ms milliseconds:

stop();

var t:Timer=new Timer(ms,1);

t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,f);

t.start();

function f(e:Event){

play();

}

you can use the setTimeout() function or the timer class to create a pause.
