Hello, I neeeeed help. I finished the “Infinite menu” tutorial and got the thing looking great. My problem is that I can’t get the buttons that are embedded in the sliding movie clip to work. While the sliding movie clip is in edit mode, I’ve tried linking the buttons to both frames and frame labels using both the onRelease…gotoandstop action and the similar gotoandstopframeorlabel behavior. Though the button rollover states work, neither action strategy makes the button move the timeline to the specified spot. Assuming that I linked the buttons properly, do I need to add some sort of action script to the sliding movie clip itself or the main timeline to let FLASH know there are buttons that are active links inside the movie clip? How do I make this work?
It sounds like a instance targetting issue since the rollovers work. Post your FLA:)
Thanks, you got me thinking in the right direction. It’s like the backslash syntax in HTML to move up and out of a subdirectory. Only here i need to use _parent or _root to get out of the movieclip with buttons and onto the main timeline. Big epiphany for me, probably common sense to you. Thanks again!!
