changing buttons permanently

[yenrut]

I would actually like to ask two related questions. I am trying to make a button that will change to (and remain until pressed again) a different picture everytime it is pressed. To do this, the button need to remain altered, even when the button is not clicking or hovering over the button. As well, the button needs to be changed more than once, more specifically, each time it is pressed. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do either of these things. Any advice would be apreciated.

Hi,

You can use movieclips as buttons. Consider a movieclip with seperate frames each holding a different image.

_root.mcInstanceName.onRollOver=function(){
_this.gotoAndStop("frameLabel");
}
_root.mcInstanceName.onRollOver=function(){
this.gotoAndStop("frameLabel");
}

To control one movieclip timeline from another might look something like...

[code]
_root.mcInstanceName.onRollOver=function(){
_root.someOtherMC.gotoAndStop("frameLabel");
}
_root.mcInstanceName.onRollOver=function(){
_root.someOtherMC.gotoAndStop("frameLabel");
}
[/code]
