Trouble in the land of CS4

[Titan]

Alright, the fact that i cannot figure how to loop animations is beyond the power of even "Google," which I do believe has never failed me before.

Simply, i would like to know what the code to loop a section of animation is, and where to place it (whether it be on a new layer, or on a previously made one), so that i may loop the animation indefinitely.

EDIT: I have a new question, hopefully to be answered.

While trying to edit the actions for a button, in the 'actions' panel there is an error message, which states, 'Current selection cannot have actions applied to it.'

This occurs after right clicking on the button instance in the flash and tried, but failed, to edit the actions.

Is anyone able to explain this, and perhaps provide an answer around it?

Edit 2:

Never mind, i did some research and figured out my problem for "EDIT"

Hopefully the last edit, EDIT:

Honestly, this problem has pestered me for just over three hours, and has laid upon me anger and contempt for Flash CS4. But i trudge on despite my lack of determination.

Problem to address: While entering the action text, as to create a button, i continue to find an error message (below)

I am eluded as to what a 'rightparen' is, but the location it must be placed in, is before the '3' i believe.

Preferably you'd use a separate layer for all the code, so you know where it is. Create a keyframe right where the animation ends, and put gotoAndPlay(X); in it, where X is the frame where your animation starts. If you're using labels, you can write the label of the frame instead of it's number.

Thank you!

Getting technical here, your error is, like the report says, in

Code: Select All Code

gotoAndPlay(Scene 3);

what you want to do here is either tell it the number of the frame to go to, like

Code: Select All Code

gotoAndPlay(3);

where it will go and play frame 3
or you can give the specific frame a name under properties (you'll see a little red flag appear in the frame if you go), and then refer to it like so

Code: Select All Code

gotoAndPlay("Scene 3");

How to click on one image to make duplicates of it in photoshop cs4? I'm trying to make columns in photoshop cs4 to use for a storyboard. I made one square and need to make more that are the same size as the first one. What is the shortcut way of doing this?
