again, you need to stream your music IF your sound is added to the timeline.

just use stop() and play() for the timeline.

the timeline with the sheet music the same one with the code or a movieclip instance?

[leo240861267932]

i did not get the point

the sheet is one layer

the line is one layer with classic tween over the sheet

the play button is in one layere 

the Action Script in another layer with the instance of the play button

what now

thanks for the support

[kglad]

use:

this.play();  //unpause

//and

this.stop();  // pause

[leo240861267932]

thanks for the answer

but where ?

describe me

you are the man

[kglad]

in your code layer, actions panel, using your instance names for yourpausebutton and yourplaybutton:

yourpausebutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pauseF);

yourplaybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playF)

function pauseF(e:MouseEvent):void{

this.stop();

}

function playF(e:MouseEvent):void{

this.play();

}

[leo240861267932]

again

you are the man

is this for only one button?

[leo240861267932]

where do i paste where 

i get the point

give it to me ready to paste

thanks a lot

[kglad]

[leo240861267932]
