Re: FLASH: Tell target in Macromedia

Hi Santi,

Though not necessary the buttons on the right probably control Movie

Clips and if so the submenus of those buttons are likely in the Movie

Clip. The buttons on the left probably are done in the standard

Hierarchical manner. 

In Flash 3 see Help > Samples > Menus-Hierarchical

I don't see anything on the page that requires the use of Movie Clips

but using Movie Clips instead of regular Animated Graphics can make

creating the page easier and the timeline would not be so long.

If you are having trouble understanding how to use Tell Target try 'Thre
