Menu in movie clip

1

I am trying to create a menu that slides out every time you point the cursor over a specified area of the screen. To get the slide out motion I created a movie clip and placed it in a button. This works fine. Once I place buttons for the menu within the movie clip however, the hit areas from these buttons and the original button that causes the movie clip to slide out overlap and cause conflict (movie clip starts to loop). Can anyone please tell me the standard way of goin about here?
Thanks

can you post an fla? I think i know what you mean but i’m not too sure :-\

[EDIT]
You can actually try enable = false when the movieclip hitTests the button. I’m not sure if it’ll work, but you can try it. Just an idea :slight_smile:

Script it:
The clip and the area where you have to put your mouse should be 2 separate symbols. Then you could ave something like

theArea.onRollOver = function () {
  myClip.onEnterFrame = slideOut ;
}[/As]where slideOut () is the function that makes the clip move :)
