Easiest way to create 'Button Roll-off effect'?

programming flash

Hi,

This is how I do it currently:

create the rollover in the button as per usual way.

then create a reverse of this for the roll-off, in a separate movie clip,i.e. fade1, this has a stop at the start, then the anim frames, then a stop at the end, the frame at the start is blank…

I line the fade mc over the button precisely.

then add some actionscript to the button on Button Rolloff fade1.gotoandplay(2);

This works fine, but as you can imagine is a pain in the arse when you have 30 buttons, or xml buttons or something, what is the most short-cut way of creating a roll-off effect?

Thanks
