Switching a symbol with a new symbol

I’m making something for my site where you can design your own character. I am trying to set it so when you select a hair style, it’ll change the hair style on the person(I already know how to change the color and stuff). How do I do that?? I thought I could do it so it would switch the movie clip with the design of the button you press to get it to change the hair…Please help!

the easy way… ?

put each hair style on its own Frame in a MovieClip, then when you press the Button simply use a gotoAndStop to that Frame. :wink:

I still cant’ get it… I put on one of the hair styles this:

on (press) {
_root.hairdesign.gotoAndStop(“Scene 3”, 7);
gotoAndStop(“Scene 2”, 1);
}

so, the movie clip called hairdesign should change to the hair style I put in Scene 3, frame 7…But it won’t work. :frowning:

instead of scenes, try using frame labels. :-\

argh…it still won’t work…:frowning:

:frowning:

uhmm… could you attach your FLA?

okay. It’s not much since I’ve just started making this a little while ago…it’s a just a test for me to try and make a better version…Hope you can find the problem…

lol, I noticed I forgot to update stuff in it. So I fixed 'em, but it still doesn’t work.

That’s totally different from what I thought… :-\

I’m a bit busy right now. If you don’t mind, I’ll get back to you later. :wink:

Ok… although it’s not the best method, it works. =)

Besides I’m still kind of busy… :-\

Thank you!!! :smiley:

You’re welcome. :wink:
