RE: Resetting a button

Thanks, Helmut. I tried a few things, and found that adding
an
onReleaseOutside() function fixed the behavior. The only
problem is that
now the button doesn't respond to the rollover at all
(though click
works fine).

I'll see if the client accepts that behavior. It seems
reasonable--it's
very vertical, for the company's sales force.

Cordially,

Kerry Thompson

You can add an action to the MovieClip that is overlaying
your Button
like
this:

movieClip.onRollOver = function() {
//do nothing;
}

this will trigger the rollOut from the button below. You can
also use
the
Delegate class but this should be enough if all you want to
do is
trigger
the action...
