Hi,
I'm a newcomer to Flash - so pardon me please if my problem is elementary. I am designing a Flash web-site with animated buttons. There is a 10 frame animation which plays when the mouse button is pressed over a button icon (a sort of zoom & fade affair - looks nice). My problem is that unless you hold the mouse button down the animation does not complete, thereby defeating the object. Holding the mouse button down when selecting a button is of course not something that people do naturally. How do I force the animation to run its course regardless of whatever else is happening (ie: even if the user proceeds to select another button - ideally I would like to have the animations overlap if the user clicks more than 1 button in rapid succession, as I would also like text to scroll on-screen when the mouse moves over the button & scroll off when the mouse moves away - if the mouse then moves over a new button I would like the relevant text for the new button to begin to scroll on while the previous text is still scrolling off).
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanx y'all.

Well, it could be done with MC and "Invisibuttons", for, examples, rollovers.
The following is for roll overs:

If you want the same, but for pressing, or a variant, yell back.

Thanks Leo,
I can see what is happening here & I think I can use this for my button over / text scrolling idea. Please can you show me the Button "Down" variation to make a down animation run to its conclusion reagrdless of the length of the button click.
Thanks again - you're a star mate!
