How do I create buttons?:asian:
select your item…
Hit F8 on your keyboard (or go to Insert/Convert to Symbol) to bring up the create a symbol panel.
Select button from the radio buttons in that panel. Give it a name and hit OK.
Tah Dah, A button!
If you double click on your button you will be brought to a button timline that says Up, Over, Down, Hit
Up is how it looks normally
Over is how it looks with the mouse over it
Down is how it looks as you are pressing it
Hit is the hit area of the button (usually the same shape as the first, but it can be whatever).
Flash MX comes with a basic button tutorial, goto help/lessons then click creating buttons on the popup.
