Hi there,  
Yesterday I asked how to make those buttons work…🙂  
Now I’ve got another problem - I want to make them fade-in at the beginning of the animation, stop and work correctly when the whole animation fades in.  
I tried to convert them to movie clip, then make the fade in in it. But when I do this they just play over and over again… (ps. they load as an external movie - don’t know if that matters:) )  
Maybe it’s easy but not for me…🙂  
Hope to get some help from you.

Thx in advance!
