Hi

I’m making an app with various mcs, based on catergories.

4 main cats  
12 animations  
7 stages within the animations  
2 sub cats for each stage in the animation specified  
7 images for each sub cat

my mind boggles when thinking how I am going show one, and ensure the rest go .\_visible = false.

example of what I have so far…

//\_root.viewer.subcat.maincat.animation.stage.image

\_level0.viewer.title.sel3.itm6.stage7.img2  
\_level0.viewer.image.sel0.itm7.stage8.img5

I’m thinking I could create some unique indentifier from the various levels, store it in an array, then compare to it?

…

also I dubious though it may be easy, I want to recode buttons, is that simple?
