Anyway, I've got a little Flash animation of a curtain dropping, pausing for a 1/2 second or so, then rising. I need to swap another sprite's member out when the curtain has dropped, so that when the curtain animates up again, the sprite behind it has changed. I don't have the fla file for the curtain, just a swf in a Dir cast, so I can't send a message out from Flash.
I can get the fla on Monday, and split it into a "drop" animation and a "rise" animation - thus being able to tell when the first has finished and proceed. Or send a message out from Flash to do the sprite swap at the required time.
But, if there's a way to check the Flash movie's frame, I could use a timeout to trigger the sprite change by polling the Flash sprite. I don't see anything obvious in the Lingo that controls Flash sprites or members that does this. Any hints?
tia, Kurt
