controling 3 different movie clips with the same instance name

[felipegm]

I have more 3 MC´s with the same instance name. How to make a button to control all of them?

[hga77]

you could give them different names and have the button control all of them!

sorry,

I gave 3 as an example...
they are a lot of different mc´s.
22 different mcs and they repeat about 3 times each.

When a button is pressed, all similar mcs will play.

How to do it?

MCs with the same instance name? How did you create them? :h:

This is the main ideea of creating instances. To have unique names in order to be addressed properly :)
Either you put in your action all the names of the instances you want to address with your action :)... OR
you can put the "3 movieClips that repeat" in one bigger MC. and play this one with your action.
