Hi, we use a ButtonTooltipWrapper thingy. Basicly you do: new Tooltip (myButton, "myTooltip", [hitArea]) it creates an empty movieclip, with the button as hitArea. All events that are not triggered on this clip are used to show/hide tooltip and then dispatched to lower lying button. Still tweaking it, but the basic principle works ok for us. greetz JC On 1/26/07, Andy Herrman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > For the disabled state for our buttons we actually use a different movie > clip. > > Basically, each button consists of a Button object and a Movie Clip > with the image used for the disabled state.
