I’m a little embarased about this issue, because i think it’s trivial for a guy with my flash knowledge and experience, but… i just can’t resolve this, so i’m asking for somebody’s help…

I have this image gallery, all based on AS3, and i want to make a menu were you can select wich gallery you want to see. Easy, right? Seems to be, but the issue is when i try to create the buttons… i just can’t add any actions, i want to add a simple AS like the “gotoAndPlay”, but flash just doesn’t let me add any AS to the buttons…

What is wrong? Thanks in advance…
