flash (macromedia): I feel so ashamed, myself being an experienced flash user but... How do you incorperate scroll-over changes and changing page via clicking? I have never had to use the mouse before; I always used buttons outside of the flash movie and mainly used flash as an animation program. Please help.....

[quoted text, click to view]

Do you mean mouse-over changes? They're built into buttons. For movieClips you have
to write code to make them work, but it's really easy code.

Changing page via clicking: again, you write code, using the getURL() command. You
can find the necessary syntax in the Flash help system.

Please respond to the newsgroup only.

For a movie clip put this type of ActionScripting on the mc itself for a mouse over effect:

on mouseOver {
this.doSomething
that.doSomethingElse
}

to allow clicking on a movie clip use this code:

on release {
getURL("http://mywebsite.com");
//Or
gotoAndPlay("Scene2",1);
}

you could also use on press {} but on release {} is nice for buttons.

Thanks a lot! Yeah, I got it now....
