FLASH: text buttons

[tristan.wuerslin]

Hi.

I need help with a text button. I want to use a text symbol in another

"button" symbol such that if I ever need to adjust the rollover button, all

I have to do is change the symbol text that it was based off of.

However, I want the 3 states of the button to have different colors.  How

can I do this?  I want only one "original" reference symbol.

The only way I can see to do this is make copies of the original text symbol

and change their colors and import them into the button symbol.  But that

means a lot of work if I ever need to change the text or colors.

The other way I found was to go into the button and break apart the symbol

on the rollover and down states so that I could change the color.  However,

this is also time consuming.


Does anyone know of a way to only have one symbol as a reference for a

button, but such that I can have different colors for the rollover and down

states.....and such that updating the text and colors can all be done from

the original text.

Thanks
