I have a simple CS3 project: 2 timelines and a single menu with 2 buttons. Each button links to each timeline, end action is return to main menu. When I check for errors I receive the following message: End action will not execute because of end action on the final chapter point I have re-done another project, totally similar, with 2 timelines and 2 buttons on a single menu. No error message I looked at the two projects a few times comparing them, trying to see where is the difference. I can`t see any , they both look exactly the same to me. Before I become cross-eyed, can somebody give me some clue as to what am I overlooking. (I have read all the threads in this forum, still don`t get the difference between the 2 projects) Thanks in advance

The error is telling you the end action of the last chapter of your timeline is going to run, and therefore your timeline end action will not run. Did you mean to have an end action on your last chapter?

Thanks jbowden No, I have no end action on the last chapter, actually there is no last chapter as such, just 2 totally independent timelines, and each consists of one chapter As I said, 2 timelines one chapter each , two buttons, same end action for both, return to main menu... what can be simpler... Is there anything that I might have done without realizing it, somewhere I might have clicked The second project though, although totally similar does not give me an error message.

Have you got an end action on your first chapter, then?

I have just re-done the same project, with a different title. I don`t get an error. Yet, when I look in the original project and the new project, same everything.... the original gives error. What is wrong with it?

Check all your chapters for an end action.

That's a very specific error message (really, it's just a warning). In your original project, select each chapter (there are only two chapters, right?), and then look at Chapter properties in the Properties panel for each one. Is there an end action? From the text of the error, one or more of your chapters has an end action on it.

Looking in the Properties, and having the timeline1 selected, the end action is return to last menu. I have tried all the possibilities, and I always have an error. If I have it on "not set" then I have an error telling me that the end action is missing

Select the chapter, not the timeline.
