Need help for button actions

Question

Hi, can someone help me please? I like to put a invisable
button over a picture (movie) with two actions. 1. rollover will
show a title, 2. release will get new URL. I succeed in one or the
other action but not on both of them combined. What can I do? I use
action script 2. Thanks. Sarosa

Answer 1

You could achieve the same result putting code in the
button...
1 - Open example.fla
2 - Save it as example2.fla
3 - Layer Actions --> frame 1, delete all the code leaving
only:
testing._visible = false;
stop();
4 - Layer button: select the bt button instance
5 - in the Actions Panel (by the way, attached to the
button), put this code:
on (rollOver) {
testing._visible = true;
on (rollOut) {
testing._visible = false;
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.google.com", _blank);
6 - Test your movie: it works too!
If you are totally new to Flash, always remember to name
things in an appropriate way using the "official" names.
(read again the beginner's tutorials)
For example, it's wrong to say "I put the action script on
the button not on a separate layer".
This is completely ununderstandable...
More: I didn't "convert" a graphic symbol to a button but I
changed the behavior of a graphic symbol into the behavior of a
button.
Doing so, the graphic symbol is recognized as a button with
all the properties attached to a button.
The main difference between a graphic symbol acting as a
button and a real Button is that the Button has four frames (Up,
Over, Down and Hit) and the graphic symbol has not.
