My problem (besides being new to Flash):<br><br>I have eight buttons running in a Flash file in a left frame. The buttons run eight different Flash files in a right frame.<br><br>When the user clicks a button, I want the button's default graphic (mouse out, not mouse over)to change. <br><br>What I've tried is to have sixteen buttons (eight initially hidden, but perfectly overlapping the eight that are showing)on the page. Then I was hoping to have the mouse release event action flip the visibility of the clicked button and the one occupying the same space. <br><br>However, it looks as if I can't manipulate the visibility of a button. Or can I? Would another solution be to manipulate the visibilty of a layer? Can I do this through an action event? Are there any other solutions I might try?

Not sure if I understand you correctly.<br><br>Click on of 8 menu options. Change that button only in left frame and change right frame accordingly.<br><br>Set up left frame flash with on click button(X) jump to frame whichever and that has the menu as you want it.<br><br>In the action above, get URL (right frame) frame _main or whatever.<br><br>Thus the left hand movie has nine frames. Original and then one each after event.
