I don’t know why I am having problems with this one, but I am still new so I guess it happens, but I have buttons that are supposed to simply move the the properly labelled frame, but for some odd reason it does not work. Here is the code. This is the code that is within the button that is pressed:

```auto
 
on (release) {
    gotoAndStop("Details");
}

```

At first things kinda worked, in that I would press one of the buttons, and it would work properly, but then none of the other buttons worked. So I tried to make some tweaks now nothing works. The event is triggered as was seen when inserting a trace.

If there is anything else that I have left out that might help, let me know.

Thanks

Thanks for the help.

here is a pic that might help

Just thought that I would add that instead of referencing by label name I tried to reference by frame number, and it still won’t work. I also added key frames at each of the locations within the main timline in case the lack of keyframes was the issue, but that has also done nothing.
