Load movie back into main movie?

[dude2]

Hey,

I have made a movie which loads a seperate .swf file as a menu into an instance (AboutMenu.fla). I want to apply actions to the buttons so they perform in the main movie (1.fla). how can i do this?

The main timeline is called _root , so thats the path to it.

on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay("myFrameLabel");
}

That is, if you load your external file into a movieclip and not to a _level.

Use framelabels instead of framenumbers.

hey,

i want to load from a button to scene 7, bypassing a couple of scenes.
Because what i want to load is on multiple layers i cant label a frame and send it to that. How can i link the button to .root - scene 7???

thanks

Why not? Going to a labeled frame as nothing to do with the number of layers!
