flash (macromedia): Hi!
I am making a button symbol with many graphical elements placed in separate
layers. I also want to use regular (not scripted)mask layers inside the button
symbol but it doesn't work when I test the movie. In the authoring environment
tha masking effect shows up properly but when I test the movie it just stacks
the layers on top of each other as regular layers.
Is this a bug? In previous falsh versions I think this method was working fine.
Why is this happening? Attila

that is correct. If you search the forum by "mask button" you will find posts
going back many years saying that flash does not support masking within button.
To work around that limitation, you can place your mask in movie clip and than
that clip inside a button.
