Re: Help - backgroud to change when i press a button?

If you want help, it's best to make a thread about it rather than bump an existing one if it isn't related. ;)

As for your question, what will the background change to? If you want it to move to the next one, use the [next background] block. For the previous one, use [switch to background [(((background)) - (1))]. For specific ones, you'll need to code them seperately...

I fall: It's a tragedy. You fall: It's comedy.
Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Hi Wildcat2012 -  I broke your question out into it's own topic.  In the future, please use the "Post new topic" in the upper right area of the page to make a new topic of your own.

You probably want the Broadcast block.  Here's a tutorial that might help you out:

or

A button? A button normally means either a button on screen or a button on the keyboard. So...

Button on screen:
[blocks]
<when[ button ]clicked>
<switch to costume[(background)
[/blocks]

Or use
[blocks]
<when[ button ]clicked>
<next costume>
[/blocks]

Button on keyboard:
[blocks]
<when[  ]key pressed>
<switch to costume[(background)
[/blocks]

Or use
[blocks]
<when[  ]key pressed>
<next costume>
[/blocks]

Hope that helps!
