i dont quite get you. how would you be able to assign an ‘action’ without using actual ‘actions’? can you be more specific? 🙂

nope, not that i know of. The actions you would need to use to make a rollout effect are pretty simple though, there are some pretty useful threads here on the forums 🙂

whats the point?! you’re still using actions, so why not just put them on the button?!

that IS blah blah!
no actions for an effect, then make a clip with a motion tween and put it in the buttons over frame, no action needed
