Codezwiz >> Forums >> Flash Help >> Button to restart

Pah, ive tried so many things. At the end of my flash animation i fade in 2 bits of text which i converted to symbols as move clips. They are called Replay and continue, pressing continue will take it to the main website, whereas replay is self explnatary. They only problem is i cant seem to get the replay to work. Ive got the continue link easy, but when i try using actionscripting to put an "on mouse release go to scene 3 frame 1" (dont know the exact actionscripting code) it just doesnt seem to work. Ive tried just putting a rectange behind it to do it, but it doesnt seem to work.

Using flash mx 2004 btw

Difficult to say without seeing the fla, but a couple of thoughts.. make sure the action is goto and play, and try on mouse press. Otherwise send me the fla.

Ok, mind if i upload it a little later. I made it on another computer as i do with most graphics/sites/flash.

I cant remeber wether you can reimport the swfs into flash and alter them, but there we go. Forgive the bland person on it, i was prepared to make a fully moving stick man with realistic looking face, as it was just too hard a task to be doing.

On second thoughts, give me a minute or 2 to run upstairs and plonk it on a floppy disk.

Wha??

You cant have over 256kb?

I zipped it now and its 800 and something kb, shall i just upload it to my host?

Ok, its upload, and sorry for the triple post

i dont mind if people take a look and use it, but id appreciate if you dont go plastering ur name on it and pretend you made it.

This is just a thought...

Make sure that if you are just using the text as a label on the button, after you choose the text tool, check down in properties and make sure its set on static text.

BTW the zip link doesn't work in your last post

lol, i accidently put the link as redhosts.zip

I made some static text, then converted to symbol so i could fade in and out.

Dont worry now guys, i managed to finally get it to work by playing around with it a bit. Thanks anywho.

The previous link to the zip will no longer be functional cus i deleted the file for webspace.
