Add navigation buttons to the animation scene
You’ve successfully completed your first animation. To complete the animation scene, you’ll add
navigation buttons. You’ll use the Go to Sound and Video button created earlier and create a
new button that returns users to the first scene. Later you’ll add Lingo to these buttons to make
them function.
Add an existing button
First, you add the Go to Sound and Video button that you created earlier for scene 1.
