I just wondered...

Say you make a button that says "Click Here" and when you put your mouse over the word, it turns another color. I notice that unless you put a rectangular background behind it (that matches the background you are doing your flash in so it is not visible), it is hard to click on. That is because the mouse needs to get over a part of the font, which can be difficult but with the bkgd, there is no need to get the mouse right on a part of the font to be able to click.

My question is, can you make that rectangle bkgd behind the "Click Here" transparent?

I wonder, does this have something to do with the "hit" state in the button? I am going to look it up but that just came to mind.

Ok, nevermind... I know now that you put that rectanglular bkgd I was talking about in this case on the "hit" state. It doesn't matter what color it is because it is transparent then.

Such a simple thing...haha...and after all I have learned about flash to this point, it is funny I only now figured that out!!! LOL
