Button Problem

1

Bah I lost what I wrote before when the attachment wouldn’t take my .swf. Can you actually attach .swf files or is it only images?

Here’s my problem. When you mouse over the button, it keeps changing between its down and up state. The button is a rectangle with text and the fill of the rectangle is now a graphic because I wanted to make the background of the button transparent. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Oh I had this problem before…(as being a beginner). You should use attachMovie, and the movie should be in the same folder.

on (release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie(“yourmovie.swf”);
}

I haven’t attached or linked it to anything yet so I don’t think that’s the problem, but thanks anyway.

To make symbols transparent, make sure your button is a symbol, and change color in properties from non to alpha.
Anyway, use the tutorials on this site, they realy are good!!!
