Well, if you got the sliding menu working (if you don’t, there’s a tutorial on this site…), it’s pretty simple. Just be careful with the path. I don’t know how you arranged your movie, so I can’t precisely help you, but try to ```auto tellTarget(_root.sliding_movieclip.name_of_the_movieclip) {gotoAndPlay(2) ;} ``` pom 0] ---

updateAfterEvent(enterFrame);\rthis doesn’t exist, the update doesn’t take parameters and works only with clip events\r\rdid you try to hardwire some values and see if it works (like just change the menu.\_x when you click a button) and build up the script from there?. ---
