Re: FLASH: Puzzeling Problem

Patrick,

Just a wag, but I'm wondering if you can set the variable and use it for the

tell target in the same action... it might need a frame to update? If you

have room somehow, you might try setting the variable in one frame or

something, and then using the button release just for the visibility and

tell target.


hth,

Laura
