[F8] Quicker way to write these button actions

[Kostas Zotos]

Hi all,

Except of the issue noted by vinayak.kadam, a general code to achieve this would be for example:

for (i=1;i<=30;i++){
    //Assume all buttons are in the  _root (main stage) otherwise you have to provide
    // the correct target path eg. _root.Container["button"+i] (if they are inside a "Container" clip for example)
    var myButton=_root["button"+i] 

    myButton.onRelease=function(){
        trace(this)
        this.gotoAndStop("selected"); 
        // Your rest actions here..
    }
} 

Best!

Kostas
