Play button help please.

I have my start menu and there is a play button on it . I see a whole bunch of things online about making widget buttons for start menus but what is the code for making a non-widget start button that you displayed take you to another scene .

Thank  you.

Hi @trueisawesome,

It’s fine if you want to use a non-widget button. Basically any display object can be made into a button if you implement the proper touch or tap handler. This guide should help you out on that:

Of course, widget-based buttons make a lot of the process easier, and they can be customized in nearly every way (visually), which is why most people use them. However, you can make buttons manually if you so choose, that’s completely fine.

Take care,

Brent
