Button problems :P

[BuLhaNuL]

I´m doing a flash once again. For a class work, once again. But that´s not the point xD

Let´s see, i have to do some buttons things, with orders like goto scene, etc.

The flash has a bunch of movie clips that must lead to other scenes. The problem is, i am doing one part of the flash inother flash archive, and i have a movieclip with a button, leading to "goto scene 2 frame 1" The thing is, when pushing the button, the animation goes back to the first scene, instead going to where it should be going. >_<

And that´s the problem... Am i doin´ it wrong?

Uuh... Help needed, please, thankyou^^

Are you saying you're using a MC as a button? If you are that's your problem, as you can't reference scenes from within Movieclips. You can just use a standard button but if you need to use a MC you can either use a frame label or the just the frame number directly. For example, if Scene 1 has 5 frames you can go to Scene 2 frame 1, with gotoAndStop(6);

No, that´s not it. I put a button inside the movie clip, so when the animation is over and you have to choose what to do next they will appear. They´re clicable, despite being inside a MC, but the actionscript code doesn´t work like it should, and it goes back to the beginning of the flash :P

Yeah, i should ask my teacher, but he is also clueless. And well... He suck a bit in flash knowledge xD

Thanks for your time though ^__^

looking at the code oy provided i'd say theres no problems at all

Well, that´s the problem... Everything looks fine and correct, but it goes nuts instead following the AC order.

It this, by the way:

on (press, release) {
gotoAndPlay("Escena 2", 1);
}

It´s in spanish xD I know it´s a very simple code, but it´s just that i don´t know what´s the problem...

Thanks for your help!

That's exactly it. You can't reference Scenes from within MovieClips and your button is in a MovieClip.

Oh, sorry, i readed your first post wrong ^__^U

So that´s the thing... Well, is there any other way to make a button appear at the end of the MC? It will be odd to have a button there when you still don´t know what´s going on...

You could either modify your code in the ways I've already suggested, or you could move the button off stage and then move it back when the MC reaches it's last frame.

_root.myBTN._x = 100;
_root.myBTN._y = 100;

etc
