Hey guys!
I was wondering, I have a button with the following action:
```auto
on (release) {
MyMC.gotoAndPlay(02);
}
```
Is there some way to remove the button hit while the animation of MyMC is running, so the user won’t be able to use the button until the animation is done? \<:}

this should work … paste it into any movie clip actions
```php
onClipEvent (load) {
this.stop()
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this._currentframe == 1) {
this.stop()
this.enabled = true
} else {
this.enabled = false
}
}
on (press) {
this.play()
}
```

```php
if (this._currentframe >= 2) {
_root.buttonInstanceName.enabled = false
}
```
[size=1] **PS:** lol … I never use buttons … they’re useless to me [MX] … so I guess my brain automatically erases the word ‘button’ placing mc instead[/size]

what the hell is going on here??
if you press button 1 … lir 1 plays and disables both buttons
if you press button 2 … lir 2 plays and keeps both buttons enabled
I’ve used the same actionscript so I don’t know what’s the problem … :sleep:
give a moment and I’ll fix it [size=1][I hope :)][/size] … just wanted to tell you the progress
