Re: FLASH: click button

[Jerry Sullivan]

Angie:

Sorry if this is redundant.....

A button symbol has four states. Up, Over, Down and Hit.

These all represent the mouse action for the button. Hit is invisible and

defines the hit area of the button.

You can define it by placing any shape you want. Generally it's best to make

it so that the interaction is easier. So, in your case a rectangle covering

the area of your text would do it.

If the problem you're having is related to your symbol's properties being

something other than a button but with the behaviour of one, you'll need to

change it.
