RE: FLASH: universal buttons?

[niklas.almesjo]

I didn't even know you could have actions to all instances of a button. How

does this work? Does an action on the instance of a button override the

"inherited" action and how do you handle the mouse events? Can you set it to

on release?

		In this case, a universal button would be a rectangle that

has up, over,

		down, and hit states.  It reacts as any button.  You drag it

onto the stage

		and assign whatever actions you want that instance to have.

Nearly all

		button actions should be assigned to the button instance,

not in the

		editing window for the button.
