I’ve created a button which contains a dynamic text. I duplicate this button multiple times on one layer called “Buttons.” I have another layer called “Actions” in which i initialize the buttons’ text by calling:

\_root.home.func = “Home”;

where ‘home’ is the first button var name and ‘func’ is the dynamic text var name. The text is embedded.

When i test the clip, the text don’t show up. Why is that?

thanks,
