Code doesent work on a prevscene - please help!!

Hello there,

I am really stuck with this one. Its like this:

I have some scenes like "scene 1" , "scene 2" and so on.

On the first frame of Scene 1 i have a variable defined as delay_product and a function like the following to use as adelay:

function proceed() {
//clear the interval
clearInterval(delay);
//go next frame - or whatever you want to happen here
nextFrame();
play();
}

Delay_Product = 10000;


Now in my timelines in after some frames when i need to give a delay i use th efollowing code:

stop();
//set a value for the delay
time = Delay_Product;
//need to give the delay an ID so we can clear it later
delay = setInterval(proceed, time);

This works fine in normal playing.

I have a next and previous button to jump slides. when i use the previous button, it goes back to the earlier slide, but then the timing for the delay goes off. It sometimes becomes half and sometimes the delay doesent happen at all. I am using the following code for the previous button:

on (press) {
stop();
prevScene();
play();
}

I am really stuck as whenever a client uses the previous button, all the delays go beserk and stuff becomes unpredictable.
Please help. How can i fix this.

Thanks in advance

Hmm, interesting.

Why do you need to give a delay?

I'd need to see a link to the file to see what it is exactly doing. I haven't ever needed to do something like this, so I don't have an aswer off the top of my head...

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
Actually this is a presentation we have made which displays our jewelry collections.
I need to show one collection at a time and then zoom in on one piece out of the collection, wait for some time at the zoomed image (therefore the delay) and then continue on with the next etc.
To put th delay ive used the above mentioned procedure.
Now it works fine until i do a prevscene. After that the delays go beserk.
I'm uploading the fla so that you could see the code too. This is surely a desperate situation as we need to send out cds with the presentation fast and this thing is messing up everything.
I will send in a message once again after uploading the file.
Thanks a lot
