menu help
I've attached a dummy file of a menu I'm working on. How can I make the buttons stay in their 'over' state when they're clicked and the movie loads, until the user clicks on another button, which then stays there, etc? I know it can be done with buttons, but movies as buttons? Thanks for any help.

fill all four button frames
opened the zip;
right now, the instances of 'button' onstage do not have an 'over' state...
1 - open the symbol in the library, or open one of the instances onstage
2 - add something to the 'over' 'down' and 'hit' frames
using movie clips with button behaviors opens up many possibilities, like the effect on page 2 of this demo
good chance of finding plenty of movieClipsAsButtons in these here Navigation tutorials at FK

Sorry, perhaps I explained badly. The buttons are just invisible buttons. I want the colour that changes on mouseover to stay there when clicked, until another button (movie) is clicked. But thanks for replying.

in your movie:
once button '1' has been rollOver'd, it waits at the end of the color tween until a rollOut event; if you only want to revert to the 'up' state when button '2' or '3' are clicked, would you then need to override the rollOut action you have attached to the hidden buttons?
better yet: achieve the button actions in the AS of the color-changing clips (mc1, etc.); using movie clips acting as buttons has many advantages
...either way, trying something like this for button 1:
Code:
_root.mc1.onRelease = function() {
mc2.gotoAndStop(1); // "resetting other clips"
mc3.gotoAndStop(1);
}
and similar for buttons 2 and 3
