can you track mouseOver events from outside the button?

[zeroreality]

what i have is a component that i've written that basically hides YOUR mouse and replaces it with my own custom mose (yay)

anyway, im looking for an EASY way to automatically change my custom cursor to the mouseOver cursor without having to add code to EACH AND EVERY button in the movie

any help or different ways of thinking about this problem are greatly appreciated

thanx

so you only want the mouse to change to the custom cursor if it is over a button?

[zeroreality]

yes
then change back to my other custom cursor when the button is 'mouseOut'ed

kinda complicated... just looking for an easier way than the one im currently using

[mraspiller]

well, your buttons are in a fixed place, correct? then you can use an "if" statement that says if the mouse is within a certain area, change to the custom mouse...
