Menu Options

Hi Folks

Can I get some help?

When someone float their mouse over the file menu it gets highlighted as I expect but how do I make the rest of my menu appear when they press “File” instead of it appearing when they roll over it? Also, I have the rest of the items that go in the menu and want those to appear once they press “File” giving them the option to select whatever entry which in turn will open a text window.

Here is the site

Thanks

dr. dave - it’s always best to post a link to the fla so that some clever soul here can see what’s happening behind the scenes.

Not that I’m one of these souls, so that you understand…

The effect you want is rather simple it is kind of the same as a dropDownMenu. Where you can find a tutorial about here: DropDownMenu
However, there is once change you have to make. You have to make the action on a click and not a mouseOver.
