I usually control film loops the other way around--I have a script that
keeps track of where they are. For example:
on stepFrame me
tell sprite(filmLoopSprite)
atEndOfLoop = (the frame = the lastFrame)
end tell
if (not atEndOfLoop) then
go the frame
else
gAnimationPlayed = TRUE
end if
end
That script tells me when the film loop is done. You could probably also
use it to tell when it had reached a label or such.
Cordially,
