Hi @Jesse_Gagne,

Check the following tutorial, it explains how to add logic to UI buttons. You can have your particles entity getting enabled when the onRelease event runs:

Try following the tutorial, it explains how to execute some code on mouse down.

If you find it hard to understand the code, I’d suggest taking first some Javascript tutorials. There are plenty and freely available online.

I am not sure what myPics is, but try following the way PlayCanvas input events are structured here, in the tutorial I’ve posted above:
