I dont quite get your question, you want to know how they did the effect or what triggers it off. If that is what you want to know, it is probabaly on(press)

I dont think they are normal buttons, if you rollout before the naimtion is finished, the animation doesnt start from teh beginning, it starts from where the rollOver animation stopped.

Still dont know what the question is though.

wellllll, the question is ...HOW DID THEY DO IT?????
the nice rollover menu...
cause it is not just a blind button menu.
i think sfa gets my point the menu must be scripted. what's the script??
thanks:D

Just follow the tutorial on scripted movement, once you can do that it is just a case of setting movements from the button.

I believe that,

they have a bunch of arrays, then they assign them and duplicate the button so many times, the button would be a mc or something and then simple actions to say on, off


so that the text inside the mc will be assigned by the arrays and the actions will also be done there.

to have all those buttons done by the way sfa says then it would take forever.

The way I said it, there would be self contained MCs with all the code so all on \e would need to do is duplicate it, anyway, there are loads of ways of doing that, it just is a case of finding the most efficient one.
