FLASH: Re: btn rollover-go to frame problem(Mark H.)

[Chris Burke]

Mark,


thanks for your response. What you describe below is exactly what I did.

Here is the blow by blow (in case you can spot any mistakes):


-I create a symbol with button behavior from a .gif file.

-I edit the symbol to have button states.

-I check in edit:Movie to make sure this symbol's states work fine.

-I place the button in a keyframe in the timeline.

-I double-click the button in that frame and add an action to the instance:

on rollover: go-to

-I enter frame number 10 in the go-to dialog

-I click okay

-I enable frame/button actions and play the movie

-when I rollover the button the states behave properly but it does not go

to frame 10.

-If I click the button, it goes to frame 10.


Hopefully you can see something I did wrong here.


Thanks again. This is a great list.
