I hope. So..I'm making an interactive map.
Click on a map location and a photobox animates in. (external .swf)
That's all cool. How can I make the photobox animate out when a new location is clicked on? Does that make any sense?
So.. I've got to load and external swf then have it stop in the middle and then animate out and unload before loading a different swf.
Is that possible?

anything is possible.
seems like you need to use variables. i can't answer thoroughly cause i dont' know what is really going on, but you'll probably be needing to use variables to load the appropriate movie, that's what i do most of the time..

I'd agree. Use a varible for the selection like v == 1, v == 2, etc. Something like that, then when you animate out, in the last frame you can have an if/else or boolean statement that loads the appropriate movie based on the variable.

use layers!!!

steadyvibe, layers in this case won't work in an easy way. the need is to animate in and then out and then load the selection. Layers work on top of eachother, so if you select 1 then 7 then 2, seven is still on top. unless you swap depths, and you will still need variables in that case, and it is just adding a step.

Flashkit ( http://www.flashkit.com ) is always a good source. Variables and simple if/else statements are real easy. Also try some actionscripting books. http://www,actionscript.org
