Error - Object selected on stage

[BenSCR]

In the past I've not had any problems coding button navigation in ActionScript 3.0, but for some reason I appear to have forgot the process.

I have created a button to go from Scene 1 to Scene 2.

I have two layers, the bottom layer is where the button is. The top layer is where the ActionScript is.

My button is on stage and is (its a Button symbol) an called "go_1" and is an instance of the the name "btn".

When I select "Click to Go to Scene and Play" (in Code Snippets), and I get a message saying "This action requires an object to be selected on Stage".

What am I doing wrong?

It sounds like you do not have the button selected when you select the command.  Click the button to select it before you click that command.
