Hi!!:beam:

I’ve got a preloader on frame 1.  
When I load the file, my variable clicked = “home”.  
Then when I click another menu button the timeline goes back to the preloader-frame.  
But this time I want the clicked variable to be whatever button I just clicked.

Is it possible to make the [clicked = “home”] statement only true the first time you visit frame 1???

Thanks in advance!!
