Synopsis
prevFrame( )
Description
The prevFrame( ) function moves the playhead of
the current timeline back one frame and stops it there. The
“current timeline” is the timeline from which the
prevFrame( ) function is invoked. The
prevFrame( ) function is synonymous with
gotoAndStop(_currentFrame - 1);. If invoked on
the first frame of a timeline, prevFrame( )
simply stops the playhead on that frame unless another scene precedes
the current scene, in which case prevFrame( )
moves the playhead to the last frame of the previous scene.
