Flash animations are terminating before their end time

AI Thread Summary
The user is experiencing issues with a Flash presentation where animations are not following the timeline correctly, leading to premature transitions to the next slide. The error message "The name 'frame' has already been chosen. Please choose another name" indicates a naming conflict in the timeline. The user has created multiple slides with animations and applied transition behaviors to each, but the behavior set on the last frame of the first slide affects all subsequent slides, causing them to transition at the same frame. The user seeks assistance in resolving these issues, particularly in ensuring that each slide transitions to the next at its own designated frame rather than a uniform frame across all slides.

I am making a slide presentation in flash. I have created some animation in a few slides. I have put a behavior on the last frame of the timeline telling it to change to the next slide. The problem is that after a few slides the following message is coming

Code:
The name "frame" has already been chosen. Please choose another name.

Also my presentation isn't following the timelines correctly as quite a few animations are terminating before their end time and making the presentation move on to the next slide prematurely.

Please help me
Thank you

It would be a lot easier for me if i could look at your flash source file. I work with flash alot, and there are plenty of reasons i can think of why your flash movie would be behaving as you describe.
 
Well, the file is 2.5 MB right now so I don't know how to send it over. Plus I am a novice at flash.

But this is basically what I did. I made a few slides and copied a few images into them as in powerpoint. I made different layers animating several of them. Then I applied the transitions behaviors to each slide. After that I double clicked on the end keyframe of one layer in each slide and set the behavior to change to the next slide.
The object of the respective layer was selected when I set the behavior so its possible that as soon as the object appears on the screen, the behavior is activated.
I wanted a way so that when the slide reaches the last frame of the timeline it automatically moves on to the next slide.
 
I was just playing around with it and noticed that if I set the behavior of the last frame in the first slide to change to the next slide, the point at which the one slide changes to the next, in all slides goes to the frame I set in the first slide. For example, if my motion timline is ending at frame 24 in first slide and I set the behavior of the keyframe to change to the next slide, each and every slide will change to its respective next slide at the 24th frame.
 
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
