can you post it so i can see whats goin wrong?
oh yea, did you give the window you made an instance?
click on the window and at the bottom it will say ‘intance’
this is unique for every object…
i called mine window2 before (i think), so if you name yours blah, then in the code where it says window2, change that with ‘blah’!!

well, at this stage its alrite to keep it all under the same layer, but i guess when you progress on, its better to keep them under sepoerate layers, and stick each of them in a folder called ‘buttons’ or something. it just helps organize things…

cool! once you accomplish something it feels good doesn’t it 😉
and to change the text, right click and go to edit on the box. Then create a layer above the box layer and type all the text and stuff. Make sure they end on the same frame!

well you can do the tween thing again. same theory as making it slide in, if you think about it. i can probably make you an AS way but i’m really busy right now so it’ll havta be a while, so you can probably try out the tweening for now 🙂

AS = actionscript
the codes i gave to you before were actionscript 🙂
i don’t think you’re learning much from me just teaching you like this, you should probably check ou tthe tutorials when you got time 🙂 but anyhow, i’ll see if i can work an AS for you when i got time or somethin, it hink i know howta do it 🙂

its all in the tween…
go to the last KEYframe and make sure its x axis? or y axis one of those are the same as the first KEYframe. do this by clicking on the object and in the properties panel below, it will say height, width, x, y etc…
yea thats where you gotta change it…
and you know what i mean by ‘tween’ right? i mean the purple stuff in your frames, or the actions that make the box move…get it?!

ah that was quick, here we go…
```php
onClipEvent (load) {
speed = 10;
}
on (release) {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.window._x -= speed;
if (_root.window._x<100) {
_root.window._x = 100;
}
};
}
```
put that in the button action bar.
check up anything in the actionscript dictionary if you don’t understnad, and if you can’t find it, then ask me or soemone else cause they explain much better 🙂 oh yea you can’t find ‘window’ there because it was the instance of the window box or the sliding thing whatever you wanna call it :beam:

ah forgotta tell you change speed to a greater number to speed up the movement, and change the ‘100’ to -100 or something else. test it out and you’ll see 🙂
