    Thanks, for the answers!

    Which rule I have to make, to go from one scene to the next scene?

    Use change scene but you will need something to trigger the change scene, whether it be an action or a timer. You seem new to GameSalad so i recommend you watch all the tutorial videos provided here;

    My actor just jumps when I press on him.
    But I want press anywhere on the screen to jump.

    Could someone help me?

    And when I press on him he stops walking.

    OK--so you're going to want to create an actor covering the entire screen (at least 480 x 320 pixels, in position 160 x 240). Set it's alpha (opacity) to 0. In that actor, have this rule:

    When touching:
    Change global attribute (make up one--say "is jumping") to 0.
    Otherwise:
    Change global attribute ("is jumping") to 1.

    Now, in the character's actor--put:
    When global attribute "is jumping" = 0:
    Jump (use accelerate with timer, or other behavior to your liking)

    Hope that helps.

    Whichever actor you want to trigger the change scene.

    The jump problem is solved. Thx very much!
    But how can I trigger this?
