Allright, I’ve been looking for this but I can’t find something that really helps…

I am using my own version of the ‘infinite menu’ for a project I’m working on. Instead of buttons in the menu, I use movieClips that also dynamically load pictures into them(swf). But since my menu has rollover and rollout actions, I always see a hand cursor when my mouse is over the menu. I want the hand cursor to show only when it’s over one of the movieclips that has an image in it. I also want to add actions to the movieclips with images. When they are pressed, you navigate to a different part of the movie.

But I just can’t seem to acces the mc’s inside the menu\_mc. Can anybody give me a solution?

add the actions to an invisible button in these clips

for the main menu clip where these are loaded/attached/wathever into, use "useHandCursor=false"  
and true on the others… (look up the correct AS for this…)
