I forget what site it is… but when you hover ya mouse over the button in flash, it performs an action… how do I make it so when they just hover it over and move it that it still does the action… instead of only when its hovered over it… should I just put in a Play Action?..pz ---

I’m not sure if I understand, but I will try: I think they are calling a movie to play on rollover… the movie would have a blank frame with a stop…then the rollover would be a telltarget, or similar AS…=) Hope that helps, if not, try to find the site…=) Rev:elderly: ---

hmm…i want it so when the mouse moves over the button, it plays the movie clip in it from beginning to end… wether or not the mouse is hovering the button or somewhere else… ---

I would do this with a TellTarget… use the onRollover, rather than onRelease…😛 EDIT: then use GoToandPlay…🙂 Rev:elderly: ---

I think he may just be a little intimidated 🙂 That **is** what you want, like this (where it says “Rollover”): [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/moretelltarget.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/moretelltarget.asp) Links to beginning with TellTarget commands are on that page as well. Hope it works out!
