RE: FLASH: make my button disapear

[Phillip Kerman]

You simply cannot set or get properties of button instances.  Not to mention

that you can't name instances.  The name in the Library is unimportant.


You could put the button inside a clip and then make the clip become

invisible.  Of course you'll then need to make sure your button's script

targets the right timelines...  Plus, there isn't a direct way to have

multiple instances of the same clip (with button) with different scripts in

each button. (You could pull something off with smart clips or

functions--but that's more involved.)
