Thread: loading movies. hide buttons on lower levels

  1. #1
    i have swf's that are loaded on top of each other.
    the main naviagtion section i want to keep loaded,
    so i always have it underneath (level 1)without unloading it.
    but you can't see it cause i have other swf's over it.
    the problem is, the buttons on level one are still hot spots.
    is there a way of covering them up till you access that level.

    i hope this kinda makes sense.
    you can see a super beta version of it at

    click the spoon and fork. then kinda roll around, you'll see what i mean.
    thanks,
    dirty mustache.

    two ways, but along the same lines. Give the nav an active and deactive state. The active state is when the buttons are selectible (visible) ...I do not know if you are using invisible buttons (buttons only with hit areas) but you might if you want the button wrting to remain visible... the deactive state has no buttons. when a viewer selects a button nav.gotoAndStop ("deactive") when the window is closed nav.gotoAndStop ("active")

    you can also give each button an active and deactive state, but in your case it seems like the nav deactive and active would be best.
