Thread: Controlling _root with a movieclip event

  1. #1

    Default Controlling _root with a movieclip event

    Hi,
    I just wanted to know how to move from SCENE1 to SCENE2, by using event handlers to a movieclip in SCENE1.
    I can do it with a button but I dont want to go that way...

    I have a movie which m1 whose address is _root.m1 . All I want is....when I click on this movie I should be able to go to the next scene....

    I tried adding an invisible button on a layer above the movie...but then the funciton onClipEvent(mouseOver) fails to work....I want that mouseOver effect too.... i have added some effects in it...

    Please help....

    Default

    Hi,

    Put a frame label on the first frame of the second scene and target the frame label.......

    Code:
    //frame code
    _root.mc1.onRelease=function(){
    _root.gotoAndStop("frameLabel");
    }
