Hi,

I’ve been try to do this for a while now and seem to be really stuck, hope someone can help me out, I’m sure its a simple problem and I’m just not seeing it.

In my movie I have 2 scenes in the first one there is a button that is flashing using tween and alpha. in this scene I’m using this code:

stop();  
btn1.play();  
btn1.onPress = function()  
{  
btn1.stop();  
gotoAndStop(“f2”);  
};

to get the button to stop tweening and to go to the 2nd scene which is labeled f2.

On the 2nd scene I got another button with the code:

stop();  
btn2.onPress = function()  
{  
\_root.gotoAndStop(“f1”);

};

Which goes back to the first scene. What I can’t get is how to keep the tweening stopped after going to 2nd scene and returning to the first.

Hope someone can help me!

Thx Pavel
