[CS3] Buttons & Linking them to other Scenes

[Islandsnake]

Hello everyone, I tried to upload a thread earlier and I don't think it went threw...so I hope this one works (Sorry If I double posted)


Ok So im doing a project, and I need to have some buttons link to other scenes...and I can't seem to get them function properly....I can get the other buttons to work just fine. But when I tried to link them to another scene I couldn't figure out how to!! I tried linking directly to a frame label within a scene but that didnt work too well!! So please if someone could help me out here?

If you can do without scenes dont use them. Thats about the best advice.

Yeah I gather that scenes aren't too popular. But currently my group set everything up expecting to use scenes and its a big undertaking(for us) to merge everything together...and we are working on that currently and its turning into a nightmare... So is the code that impossible to link to another scene? I would still like to know how to do it!


So please if you do know how attempt to explain it as best as possible o.o

Are you makign sure you're talking to the _root. timeline?

code:

---

on (press){

_root.gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", "frame1");

}

---

...assuming you use "frame1" as the frame label of the first frame in scene 2, (however you don't need frame labels) -
_root.gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);
