if i have a button in a movie clip, how do i direct it to affect the main timeline?
what do you mean? like scope?
mymovie.mybutton.onRelease=function(){_root.gotoAndStop(5)};
something like that
write this on the movie clip
_root.play();
_root.gotoAndStop(5);
you can use about any function on the main timeline by writing _root. in front of it
thanks guys
