Hi There,

I hope I’m posting in the right place. I’m a newbie at flash so go easy on me!

I have a quick question, I understand enough about flash on how to make buttons play movie clips in a particular area when I press a button however I’m trying to make the jump up higher and require some help.

I have 3 menu items with 3 movie clips loaded just beneath the menu Items. However my first problem is, how do I hide content or even better, only play certain movies when a button is released?

At the moment the code for a button I use is:

on(release){

\_root.intro.play();

}

But all the movie clips are overlayed!!

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!

Kind Regards,
