I have a MovieClip I want to control with actionscript. I want when I mouse over a button it plays that MovieClip and when you mouse the movie clip goes back to the original state.

I want it to have a delay though when you mouse of, like it’s timed in second before it returns to previous state.

What I have are my buttons sitting within this movie clip; so when user mouse over a hot spot the movieclip plays reveling the buttons and opn mouse off it hides then, but with a delay.

Thank you
