I’ve got a button that, when clicked, needs to play a frame. Normally I’d just use the gotoAndPlay feature, but the frame I want to play is on a higher level than the button. That is to say that the button is inside of a few movie clips but the frame I want to point to is just in the main scene, not inside of movie clips. How do I point to this frame?
