How do I use the same button on all my layouts

I am working with a number of layouts for an RPG game. I have been adding the same command buttons on every layout with the same code for each one. "Attack, Defend, Spell, etc). For example in the forest, swamp, and desert layout

Is there a way to use the same set of button on every one of my existing layouts? Example?

Thanks

Hi Guyon, I'm not sure I understand what problem you're having. Could you clarify please? Cheers.

Look into global layers.

Let me try and explain better.

Right now my game has seven layouts. I have buttons with the same name on each layout. So I have to copy the same code to each button on each layout.

Is there a way to just make one button that will will show up on all layout and just have one set of code?

codah I am not sure what you mean. can you explain?

Guyon If I understand you correctly you're talking about the code, which is on the event sheet. If you're using separate event sheets for each layout you could write a standalone event sheet for those buttons and just "include" it into each of your layout event sheets.

I seem to recall something about that hundredfold. Is there a tutorial someplace?

Do I even use a layout for what I want to include or just the event sheet?

Thanks

Global layers are layers that you can reuse from layouts to layouts, which could be part of the hud

Aphrodite, I am not sure layers will help as I need my buttons with code to appear on different layout,. I think the include is what I want but looking for a tutorial or example.

I found this but still missing how to add my buttons to different sheets

Did you search "global layers" in the manual? They will give you common UI across layouts. Then to get common events, you "include" event sheets that handle the UI on those layouts.

I think I got this

Thanks all
