Got a movie clip. On the movie clip, i want a “close” button.

Now, the whole CLIP is draggable. So you can place it like you want. imagine what you get in your OS of choice - that concept.

Problem is? The MouseOver state for the button, which is located inside the movie clip that drags, doesn’t work. Why? How do I fix it?

The heirarchy is:

Movie Cilp with Drag AS \> Button \> Up State Graphic & Over State Movie Clip

As I said, when the drag is on the containing movie clip, I can’t get the MouseOver for the button to work. This is tres annoying. And, I can’t fudge it by making the whole containing clip activate the rollOver effect, because there will be multiple buttons inside the draggable container clip.

Help 🙂
