Hello-  
I’m just getting my arms around Flash and I am trying to create a  
slideshow of sorts, in a matrix form. What I mean is that there are  
three buttons down the left side and three across the top - a user  
would click any combination of two of these buttons and see a  
corresponding picture.

Can anyone point me to a tutorial that might help, or give some  
pointers? I plan to let the user know which buttons are “pressed” by  
highlighting them a different color. And they will obviously have nine  
different pictures to choose from. I’d also like to fade the pictures  
in and out.

Thanks much for the pointers.

Regards,

Doug
