i would like to set up a movie as an experiment with a bunch of buttons and set properties to those buttons globally

for instance I have a bunch of green lil buttons and onLoad I want them to appear black so setRGB(0x000000); would do that and then on rollOver I want them to setRGB (0x0000FF);

then another change for rollOut back to black and so on

I don’t want this to have to be in every button I would like to be able to just make a movieclip with the text in it and have it behave like a button with these properties that i can edit in one script on the main timeline instead of editing properties attached to every button

does this make sense?

thanks very much for your help:whistle:
