Basic Flash Button Problem

[JimMcBrearty]

Hi,

I found your tutorial site very informative, finding help on most topics I wanted. But, and there always is a but, one tutorial there isn't, is how to use flash button to link to different parts of a movie.

What I would like (ideally!) is a tutorial on how to do this, I think it invloves setting up the button to go to a farticular frame and then sticking there - but I don't know how to do that!

Is there any chance of a tutorial on this?, or is it simple enough that someone could tell me here? Any replies here, or sent to jim_mcbrearty@hotmail.com would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim McBrearty

Hello Jim,
Flash includes a HTML Help feature that has a lot of good information regarding your question. Go to Help | Using Flash or press F1 in Flash to launch the Help pages. In the Contents, click on the Creating Interactive Movies link. From there, click the Jumping to a frame or scene link. The address of that page on my computer is: file:/ //C:/ Program%20Files/Macromedia/Flash%205/Help/UsingFlash/html/12_interactivity10.html

That tutorial should help you out. Once you try that and have a more specific question, please don't hesitate to post in the Flash 5 forums. I or other helpful flashers will be more than happy to help you out!
