Re: FLASH: beginner: animated button

[Dorian Nisinson]

Hi Dennis,

	Your animated sequence should be a Movie clip. Then create a blank

button symbol and drag the animation from the library onto the stage in

the appropriate frame for when you want the animation to occur. 


	For example: If the Up state should be still (not animated) put a

version of you animation on the stage and set the instance properties to

graphic, play one frame and frame 1. Then put a keyframe in the button

Over state frame and change the new instance of your animation to Movie

clip. Now when you see the button it will be static but when someone

mouses over the button the animation will play.
