Same buttons on different scenes. Help please

programming flash

Hi,
I have more than one scene in my movie (not external swf) and a few buttons (pause and stop buttons) which have to be visible on all scenes. Is there any method to fix them on the same place in all scenes, or I have to put them on every scene manually?

Thanks :slight_smile:

sad to say this but you’ll have to manually put them…:rabbit:

one reason why i don’t use scenes…

wait a minute… may be you can put all the buttons into a movieclip and then attach it at the first frame of scene 1 using attachMovie()…that way the buttons will be there in all the scenes till u remove it using removeMovieclip()

:bounce:

scenes are basically just frames, kept seperate to help you visualize and keep things ordered. scenes are good for when things change a lot, if you have persistent items (i.e. buttons), use frames (with labels) in a single scene rather than mutiple scenes.

Thanks SeaPink, the 2. way is a good method. I’ll try that.
