Multiple Buttons

[Djstarchild]

Hi,

I have a question...I have 10 different buttons that have the same animation and motion on the rollover state, however the information is different for each, and it does not appear in the same location everytime. How do you duplicate the button and animation so that I can edit each without changing every button. Currently if I duplicate the button, and edit the info within the button it changes everybutton before it. (obviously) How do you handle this. Here is an example of what I am talking about. http://www.meridianmarketing.com/data.swf (roll over data on left and web portal in middle.)

right click on your button on the stage and select 'Duplicate Symbol'..

but that also duplicates the symbols inside, and if I change those, it affects everything else. Do you just rename them>

yep, just keep duplicating anything that will change and leave anything that is generic accross your images.
