text actions


Post reply

how can I apply actions (eg a to restart the flash movie) to some text? whatever i do to the text, it still says "cannot apply actions to current selection". help please! thanx
your going to have to convert your text into a button.... to do this select the text and press F8 . (or select the Text then Insert>Convert To Symbol ) Select the Radio button for Button and choose a name for it. Then click ok. Then all you have left to do is click on the button and use the actionscript window to tell it to restart the movie. Here's the code: Code: on (press) { gotoAndPlay("Enter Scene Name", Enter Frame #);
