FLASH: Invisible buttons

[joost van Schaik]

Hello everyone,

I,ve got a question about invisible buttons.

I am working on my portfolio and when you reach

the spaceship (second page) I want to make several invisible buttons.


Look at my site:

http://www.schaik.net


I already made one button, but i am not happy with that button

because it slows down the running animations. 


What i did now is this. My movie is playing in one frame and two

small animations are running. I made a button with several 

hotspots on the screen The up state of the button is empty

the over state shows an animation of a comet, the down state is empty

and the hit state exists of several squares. So if you scroll the

screen, you see the animation running in the over state.


Two tings bother me now.

1. The animations are not running smooth anymore.

2. I don't want the "hand" to be visible when you are over the

invisible squares.


Does anyone know how to overcome these problems?

In my intro when the satelite comes towards you, i did the same,

the satelite holds still, untill you roll over the hotspot.

When you are over the hotspot I let the movie jump to another frame.

This works just fine, no "hand" and smooth anymation.

So whats wrong with the spaceship movie.
