Ok. Buttons. We all like buttons.
Animated button. Now, we like those even more!
Currently my button has a over state which changes from one colour to another over about 10 frames. That much is easy. What I would like to know is: how to I make it so that when I MouseOut the movie plays backwards thus fading back to its original state in a nice animation. That would be cool. Anyone have any ideas?
Much appreciation in advance my friends.

why dont you try making a seconf movieclip with the frames reversed, and just play it on roll out.
