FLASH: Button Template

[Irfan Uygur]

Hi all Flashers,

	after reading the tutorials and practicing some small movies, i am

constructing my 1st flash site, which will hopefully

be my 1 st job in the company. My question is i am preparing some 20-30

buttons which i want to base on a template button

so that if i change the appearance or up/over/down states of the button, all

of the other buttons will be updated.

I know that if i use a graphic symbol in the construction of the buttons, i

can update the look of all the buttons

when i make a change on the 'template graphic symbol' but what i want to do

is to update the appearence of all the

up/over states of the buttons.

	Thanx in advance if i can do this, this will save me great time !


PS: i also wanna learn a drawing program to have more control over the

drawings in Flash, what do you Flashers use/recommend ?

CorelDraw/Macromedia FreeHand/Adobe Illustrator. I heard recently that

there's a plug-in available at MacroMedia site for

Adobe Illustrator and Macromedia FreeHand to export as SWF. Should i choose

to learn one of them for easy exporting to Flash?
