Ok, so I have a bunch of thumbnail pics on the stage of my MC with button instances on top of them. I have a piece of code which loads a larger version of each into a new layer. This works fine, except for the fact that the thumbnail buttons are still active behind the large version. This makes users feel that there are Easter eggs available.
Then, I added, “_root.photo1_btn.enabled = false;” which I put in for each button with its specific instance name. This works great to turn all the buttons “off”.
I tried, “photoBack_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.photo1_btn.enabled = true;
}”
to turn the buttons back on from a button on the loaded MC, but this didn’t work. I tried “this.” and “_parent.” in place of “photoBack_btn”, but nothing worked.
Can anyone help? Please…
