I’m using movie clips to make buttons because I want a image to fade in and out. When you click on it it should jump to a different frame but it does not happen. I’m not should if it’s trying to go in to the frame in the movie clip or or not. How do I get that movie clip when I use the on release to gotoandplay on the main sence and not the movie clip?

PS: There was an image in the background but for size, I had to delete it to upload it. Not important but pointing it out for some reason.
