Every action in Flash happens on a timeline.

If you want an action to occur you must move along the main timeline or

have the action run on an independent timeline in a Movie Clip or in

another Movie loaded by Load Movie. A single button can trigger multiple

Actions with a Goto and/or various Tell Targets to Movie Clips or other

Movies loaded by Load Movie. Or that button can trigger a series of

actions. But understanding that nothing happens unless you are moving

along or jumping to a new point in one of the timelines is critical to

understanding how things can happen in Flash.


Though a Button Instance can only actually have one set of actions

assigned to it you can replace the button with another Instance of the

button in the same place on the stage and make it look like the same

button.
