1. Re: I can't link up the play button in Encore
Stan Jones Nov 7, 2014 3:42 PM (in response to q1u2i3z)Did you have a menu in the first build (but no button)? Do you have a menu now (with a button on it)?

q1u2i3z Nov 7, 2014 8:09 PM (in response to q1u2i3z)The project works with no buttons but when I add a background and a play button it won't link. I know I've skipped something. I just don't How to link the button.

Stan Jones Nov 7, 2014 9:09 PM (in response to q1u2i3z)If you added a background, you must have a menu. So I'm going to assume you have the very basic question of how you link a button to a timeline. See screenshots.
On the left is the project panel, with a menu, an asset (the video file with the .wmv extension), and a timeline. The middle panel is the menu viewer, where one of the buttons is selected. The right panel is the properties panel where you can see the properties of the selected object, here a button.
In the first screenshot, the section for "Link" is empty. In the second screenshot, you can see that the "pickwhip" has been used to drag from the link to the timeline. (You link to a timeline, not to the asset.) In the third screenshot, you can see the button properties for link, now shows the timeline.
Here's a link to help:
