Hi all,

I want to know if it is possible to change the overstate of this component button. I can’t seem to be able to edit it. I have attached a copy of the file.

It currently changes to green I want it to go another colour.

Many thanks in advance

place this on the button. it’s the only thing I know…

[AS]  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
if (this.hitTest(\_root.\_xmouse, \_root.\_ymouse, true)) {  
this.setStyle(“themeColor”, “haloOrange”);  
this.setStyle(“color”, “0xFF0000”);  
} else {  
this.setStyle(“themeColor”, “haloGreen”);  
this.setStyle(“color”, “0x000000”);  
}  
}

[/AS]

Can’t we just delve into the skins and change it there?
