My movie symbol not working in main timeline

Apr 17, 2012 2:32 PM

The symbol works in its own movie timeline, the keyframe length is the same length on both the movie symbol timeline and the main timeline.

But movie symbol refuses to play on the main timeline.

Any ideas?

    If it is a movieclip symbol, it doesn't need to have any more than one frame in whatever timeline you place it in to be able to play in its entirety.  What controls are you using to make it play?  Does the movieclip have any stop() command in its first frame(s)?

    No stop commands anywhere.  I'm trying to make a flash animation, it won't play the movie clip on the timeline or when I test movie.

    What controls are you using to test it? Using Ctrl-Enter should test it properly.  If that's not working show screenshots of the main timeline and the animation timeline.
