Ok…i have a background…and i wanted to make a invisible button so that i can literally click the background without seeing any unwanted buttons in another words, i wanted to create a part of a picture to be a button. Is it possible? ---

Doesnt it work with a hotspotbutton? You have to create a square in a size you want and turn it into a button. then grap the first keyframe in the up-frame and drag it to the hit-frame. that must do the trick, but correct me if I’m wrong ---

That does work but you can also do it for a click anywhere button by going to insert\>New Symbol then convert it to a button then on the hit stage drag a big square that covers the stage. after that go into the library and drag the button into the movie and it should work after that… jus another way to go lol
