weird mouseover

[swerve123]

Hi,

I have an flv component on the stage. On a layer above this i have an invisible button.

When the movie is exported and I rollover it the little hand that normally signifies the element is a button goes mad and disaapears, then reappears over over and over.

The thing is it still works and goes to the url as it should, but any idea why the actual cursor when you mouseover it goes so wild?

many thanks

I can suggest a workaround.

Convert your video instance to a movieclip. Call it something like instanceName.

then in your actions layer on the main timeline change the

instanceName.buttonMode = true;

you can then get rid of the invisible button - the videoclip containing the video will perform the same function, ie changing the cursor. You'd then just port whatever functionality that invisible button had to the video MC.

Hi Dan I will try it, thanks a lot.

Only thing is the button I need is a set size and appears over a specific part of the video in the layer below it, so I dont really want to have to make the whole video a button.

But thanks for the advice above, much appreciated!
