My opinion is:

Don’t use buttons. A button is a movieclip with labels. Use movieclips instead, and you’ll be able to have more control over what’s happening inside.

In your situation I would create a mc with different labels for the different states (on/off).

I haven’t used buttons since flash 5 and I’m really happy without them :slight_smile:
