Hello All:

I’m working on a project that has a typical Windows style set of pull-down menus across the top. Each one is a movie clip, containing a number of buttons, that I’ve place manually. There are buttons on in the main scene that are used to activate each pull-down accordingly.

Now, I’d like to use the on(rollOut) event on the each pull-down to imitate the simiar behavior as a Window menu - when the mouse leaves the menu area, it snaps back up into place. What I find is that when I attach this script to my movie clip, I can no longer interact with the buttons on the menu. The pull-down appears and snaps back as desired but the buttons on the menu will not respond.

I thought that was the point of the trackAsMenu property. But, when I set that to true for my movie clip, I get exactly the same behavior.

Does anyone know how to get this to work? Can you provide an example? Let me know, I would really appreciate it.

Thank you in advance.
