Is there a way to listen for the completion of a MovieClip playing?

Question

I want to execute a function upon completion of a MovieClip's animation. That is, I would command it to play() or gotoAndPlay(). I don't know of any listener that I can attach to the MovieClip with the "addEventListener()" command. Have any idea I can do?

Answer 1

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onCheckAnimationComplete)

function onCheckAnimationComplete(e:Event)
{
    if(animation.currentFrame==animation.totalFrames)
    {
        //TODO call a function
    }
}

Answer 2

You can use the addFrameScript method, as shown in this post to dispatch a custom event when the last frame is reached.
