Re: FLASH: coding buttons

Hi Helena,

> state until another button is clicked?

No, but you can move to another frame where a fake button exists. To

create a fake button that looks like the down state make a copy of the

button and change its Behavior to Graphics - Single Frame - Frame 3.

See the Replacement metthod for the basic hierarchical structure of this

type of button arrangement. ---->
