A odd thing happens..

[Jim Curry]

Hi all,

UI haven't seen this question posted before, but I hope someone call

explain it.

I have a presentation which consists of several files.  Each level

completely overlaps the other when the next one is called up.  I don't

want to unload any of them because each has an opening bit of "keep the

viewer busy effects".  The problem lies in the fact that buttons in the

lower levels are active even when you are several levels above it.  This

is not a bug, but how this all works.  As a go around, I set up a  frame

in the lower level which it automatically goes to when you go to the

next up.  The "back" button  sends a command to the lower file and

instructs it to go back to the "active" button frame and it also

instructs the current file to go to the that level.

This works fine except I cannot get other buttons to do it that are

several scenes in on the top most file.

I used the following in the back button.  (I am at Level 1 and want

Level 0 to go to the buttons active frame(nav) and then take the viwer

to that level)

On(Press)

Begin Tell Target    _level0

Go To and Stop         Label=nav {this is the name assigned to the     

                                   frame with buttons}

End Tell Target

Go To and Stop       _level0

End On

  All this works fine for the first back button.  I even copied it and

put it in the next scene and it wouldn't work.

I am perplexed
