goto scene2 with mc?

[tom33]

Hello!

I have a problem using buttons in a movieclip. There are a few buttons in a mc, when I click on one of them i want to jump to Scene2. But I cannot use the dropdown menu to select the Scene?!

How can I go to another Scene with a Button in a Movieclip?Anyone can help me??

Unfortunately you can't change Scenes from within a MC directly using the pull-down menu. One way is to move the main timeline to a frame that will change scenes for you.

Button:
On (Press)
Set Variable: "/:sceneChange" = 2
End On
On (Release)
Begin Tell Target ("/")
Go to and Play (2)
End Tell Target
End On

In frame 2 of the main timeline, place the following:

If (sceneChange = 2)
Go to and Play (Scene 2, 1)
End If

This will allow you to control Scene changes from withing embedded MCs.

Cheers,

Hi
Hey its possible by using frame lables.
Inside your mc on your button use following script.
On (Release)
Begin Tell Target ("/")
Go to and Stop ("mm")
End Tell Target
End On
(here mm is a lable on main timeline in another scene.)
