expanding text button

[nighttrain20]

I am creating a menu list like this:

Button 1
Button 2
button 3

In the over frame I would like my text to expand when the mouse is over it. I only see the 4 frames for buttons; Up, Over, Down, Hit. I would imagine that it needs to be done with tweening but how do I get that to happen. Thanks

Make a new movie clip.
Put the button in the first frame.
Create the animation of the button that you desire to say 10 frames in length.
Add an action to the first frame:
on(mouseover) {
play();
}
On all other frames put an action of:
on(mouseout) {
goToAndStop(1);
}

You will notice you will need to do a little more work thatn this to make it smooth on mouseout, but I've got faith in you This should give you the idea.
