Simple.
Two separate MC’s (menu_mc and menu2_mc) both export to the MainMenu.as class. Both contain buttons that export to the OButton.as class. Buttons.fla base class is Main.as.
What I want is for menu_mc and menu2_mc to work like partners. When I ROLL_OVER the buttons of one I want the other MC to “hear” it and react the same way. How do I make them “aware” of one another?
I have a friend who pointed me in this direction:
"First off, both the top menu and the middle menu need to become aware of each other. I don’t actually have flash, so I can’t see how this is set up exactly within the FLA, but you need to do something like this within the class which extends the root:
var m1:MainMenu = mySecondMenuClip;
var m2: MainMenu = myFirstMenuClip;
m1.setLinkedMenu(m2);
m2.setLinkedMenu(m1);
setLinkedMenu can add a listened to the other menu so that every time you make a new selection, it knows to update its selection. You have to figure out the details 
Secondly, your OButton class needs to broadcast when the mouse rolls over it. Then you can use that pairing above to have both menus rollover in tandem."
…AND, while I understand something of what he is talking about, I am having trouble getting my mind (and my code) around it. As you may see I have begun to implement the “setLinkedMenu” method but I am not really sure what it is supposed to do OR if I even hav it in the right place.
Thanks for any help you may offer.
