Reviews for "Blan's Guide to Buttons"

Dude!...

I coudnt copy and paste the action scris! wich is really loers your score. I liked the humor though!

blanblan responds:

Sorry about that, but those were bitmaps! I'll try to make some copy-and-pastable text as soon as I can.

Good Job but..

The part where it says right click on select actions, actions doesnt come up on my button? I dunno why!

Its a good tutorial, but its just that little bit that I cant do!

blanblan responds:

Try highlighting it and hitting F9 instead. That should work. :P
If not, PM me and I'll continue to help.

Doesn't work for me...

This is a well-made tutorial, but it doesn't work for me. When I try to add an action to a button, the program says "current selection cannot have actions applied to it", even though I converted the shape to a button. I have Adobe Flash CS3 Professional. Do you know what's wrong?

Not bad

but whenever I try to use it,it doesn't work.

lots of holes

I created the button and entered the first set of script. Then I right clicked on the button-layer frame to enter the stop(); command. Now your screen shows a blank screen with the stop command by itself, but when I enter in the command I did it after the "release" command. You also don't explain if I have to place the "stop" command for every layer either. For a beginner, I found it confusing that I right clicked on all layers for the same frame and found the "release" command there. I guess that's right?

Anyways, I ran the game, which has frames after the button frame, and the animation didn't stop. It just went frame after frame right through the button frame and continued on.

Another tutorial said the button has to be a movie clip first, then a button... you didn't mention this. So which is it?
