Re: symbol button bug (?)

[John Croteau]

Hi Colin,

  If you create a symbol in Flash 2 you will create a dysfunctional

button if you change its property to button after it is created.

  This is a long known button bug. Proper way to create a new button

using an existing symbol or object, select the symbol on canvas use

Insert > Create Symbol and select button Behavior.


  To fix an dysfunctional button, do not use Duplicate though it may

seem to work at first.

    Create a new button and copy all the frames and layers and paste

over first frame of the new button.
