Hi!

I’m trying to have a hand cursor over a movie clip that contains dynamic texts.

I tried:

```auto
nav.buttonMode=true;
nav.mouseChildren = false;

```

The problem is that this movie clip has a roll\_over on the children, so when I put the second line of code my roll\_over doesn’t work anymore.

I would so much appreciate help!  
thanks
