How buttons work? - Any 3D compatible software?

[tester_dot]

When a button is pressed then i must use the "goto" command to send the movie-runner to the frame of the external clip to start playing? Or make a variable...say X=1...so that an external "if x=1 then..." loop will "see" the event and chang the flow of the movie???

Is there a software or a plugin that can generate 3d objects fully compatible with flash 5????

say what?

u want to press a button and play a movie, either a clip or a sepearte flash file (i think). two ways (at least) use the goto command like you said. if your movie clip is in the file you are working on you can make a seperate scene and put the clip in the first frame. then your button can use the goto command to access that scene and frame to show it. if you have a seperate flash file you can use the Load/Unload command.

is this close?

don't know about auto generating 3d software. it would be good. this 3d thing is kinda complicated. just take a look at that message board.
