The scene select button enables whoever is watching your movie to navigate more easily through your movie instead of having to go through your whole movie to get to the good part of your movie. This is a very useful tool and many people use it. If you would like you can also use this code I gave you and use it for your play button as well.
First of all open up flash and make a rectangle or a circle of what ever you would like. Then make it a Button (you can make it a movie clip if you really wanted to like make it like an animated button.) Now **** on the button(or movie clip) and press F9 to open up your action panel and copy and paste this in
Code: Select all
on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay("first");
}
So now that you have labeled the frame you should see a red flag like the one in my picture. So all you do for scene select is make a bunch of buttons with the code that I provided above and change the name inside the quotations(WITHOUT BACKSPACING ON THEM) to like second or something.So heres another example
Code: Select all
on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay("second");
}
Ill explain the code because I feel like it
on(release) {
This is simply when you let go of the left **** thing on your mouse
_root.gotoAndPlay("second");
Starts at the root directory and looks for a frame name that is called what ever is in the brackets and in this case its second
}
This bracket is a terminators
I hope this helped you guys out.
