Well, I’m trying to make a flash menu for my website.
Right now, I’m having a problem because the button only says that I’m on it when I am directly over the text. Example: I am not on the “O” if my cursor is over the middle of it.
How can I fix this?
Search for hit area.
Draw a little rectangle and put it behind the text. Make it the same color as the background. Or make it it’s own movieclip or graphic and give it an alpha of zero.
:hr:
If I do put a button over it, then I’ll have to somehow make that effect the color of my text. Can you tell me how to do that, or give me an easier way?
thx
Don’t make it a button. Make it a shape with the same color as your background. Whatever effect you have on the text shouldn’t effect the background. Or maybe I’m just not getting what it is you want to do. :ne:
on your button, make a keyframe on the hit thing in the button, and draw out a rectangle over the text.
On mouseover, I want the text to turn from green to blue. How would I effect the color of the text when I have a rectangle over it?
You don’t have a rectangle on top of it, you have a rectangle underneath it - either on a different layer or just underneath it (select it and find Move to Back in one of the menus). In the over state of your button go to Insert >> Keyframe. Flash will place a duplicate of everything that was in the first keyframe. In this other keyframe (the over state) select the text and change the color. Leave the rectangle alone. Now you should be good to go.
:hr:
Thanx
I was trying it out, and I actually found that it’s easier to put all of the text (up and down) as part of the rectangle button itslef.
lol, that’s what I’ve been talking about the whole time . . .
