Hey all, I have a bit of an odd question. I'm working on a project in which I'd like to include some somewhat intricate Flash animations... unfortunately... (sort of)... I'm working on one of those new MacBook Pros, with the Intel chip. No Flash 9 AS3 preview for me.
I'd like to keep moving on the project, but as you probably know, Adobe is not shipping (and therefor not making available for download?) the new Flash CS3 until the end of April. So I'm wondering, is it possible to add frames to a programmatically created AS3 MovieClip, and then populate those frames dynamically? Will nextFrame() called on the last frame of a MovieClip still move the playhead?.. or return some kind of error?.. or just not do anything? I'll be experimenting with all this stuff over the next couple of days, trying to come up with a solution, but if anyone knows anything I'd appreciate the feedback. Also, if you happen to know that there's no way to do what I'm asking... and you happen to have the Flash 9 AS3 preview... would you mind making a few empty AS3 MovieClip SWFs? To be safe, I think one each at 7, 14, 21, and 28 frames would be great. That's not too much trouble is it? Okay, infinite thank yous in advance. //Matthew Anthony Hayes
