I got it to work by moving the Set Property values out of the main timeline
and into the button that was running the commands.
>From Main Timeline
Set Property ("Tree1", Alpha) = "0"
Duplicate Movie Clip ("Tree1", "Tree" & treeCount, treeCount)
Set Property ("/Tree" & treeCount, Alpha) = "0"
Set Variable: "TreeAlpha" = GetProperty ( "Tree" & treeCount, _alpha )
Set Variable: "plantCount" = plantCount + 1
Stop
>From Button
On (Release)
Set Property ("/Tree" & treeCount, Alpha) = 100
Set Property ("/Tree" & treeCount, X Position) = 210
Set Property ("/Tree" & treeCount, Y Position) = 137
Go to and Play ("enactive")
End On
It works, but now I am running into problems with duplicating the MC. I
think I know the problem. I can seem to pass the global variable from the
main timelime into the button. Do you have to use Tell Target and get
property?
