Any way to enter F8 key during playback?

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to require the user to hit F8 before moving on to the next frame of the movie, but I can't seem to make the project recognize that the key has been hit. I tried tracing the keyCode for that key but came up empty. Does anyone have any suggestions? I would be most greatful. Thanks,

Matt

The keycode is 100. It's one of those odd things that certain keyCodes
cannot be trapped during authoring - you have to make a test projector to
trap them.
