Is there any reason why you need your tooltip text to be selectable? Selectable text gives you the i-beam cursor when you roll over it, and the i-beam interferes with button events. Try this...

Thanks, Grégoire. Your thought process seemed to work. I also ended up having to include a check for whether or not the tooltip MC was undefined onEnterFrame. - MM class toolbarFunctions extends MovieClip { private var tipID:Number; function toolbarFunctions() { } function onRollOver():Void { this.tipID = setInterval(this, "displayTip", 1000); } function displayTip():Void { // create text container... // check to see if it was getting created again and again... if (_root.tooltip == undefined) { _root.createEmptyMovieClip("tooltip", 20); _root.tooltip.createTextField("tip", 1, 0, 0, 100, 100); _root.tooltip.tip.text = "tooltip"; // make text follow mouse... _root.tooltip.onEnterFrame = function():Void { var coord:Object = {xx:_root._xmouse, yy:_root._ymouse}; this._x = coord.xx; this._y = coord.yy; }; clearInterval(this.tipID); } } } _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
