Okay, so I’m doing the infinite menu, (where the menu lies horizontally and continues to scroll) but when it’s all said and done, my buttons that are in the movie clip and linking to other scenes don’t work in the finished product. How do you get the buttons to still link when in a movie clip?

I am having the same issue. Now you say that you cannot in any circumstance target a scene from inside another movieclip?

You could target it if you used frame labels, as he said.
