Hi.
I have a button action not working to control another movie clip timeline. The movie clip timeline I want to control has an instance name but for some reason it's not playing. The button is on a different movie clip timeline. Both movie clips are on Scene 1. I think there is something wrong with my target path?
on(release){
_root.insMcWorkNav.gotoAndPlay("lbWork04");
insMcWorkNav is the movie clip, lbWork04 is the frame to play
Any suggestions? Thanks!
The movieclip on the stage is actually labelled 'insMcWorkNav' right? I know it sounds simple but something my AS problems are!
Yes, that's the instance name. I used the target path icon in the Actions panel to get that target. Any other ideas?
very strange, your syntax is correct, it maybe a typing mistake.
I've also noticed that your closing bracket is not there , it may be why.
try again
on(release){
_root.insMcWorkNav.gotoAndPlay("lbWork04");
}
I would double check my path to the insMcWorkNav instance. Is it actually ON the root timeline, and not contained within another movieclip?
also check that the movie isnt called insMcWorkNav as well as the instance being called insMcWorkNav as can't that have 'issues' too?
