[COIS2004]

i have a picture in flash (curently shape and not specific symbol). How can i make it so when the user puts the mouse over the image it enlarges to a specific size?

Change your picture into a button and in the over state make the picture biger

You could also make a tween so that the pic enlarges smoothly as opposed to a button which will make it jump to the size you want. Just take your movie clip named "mc" and a button names "button". don't fill in any of the button's stages (up, down, etc), except for the last one... on the last one (hit stage) make a square and make the alpha value 0 (makes it an invis button). then go to stage.. place the button behind your movie clip.
now for your movie clip, edit it & place a key frame on frame 1, 5 & 10... make a shape tween so that it grows from frames 1 to 5 and on frame 5 put this AS in the actions panel:

stop();

then using a shape tween, make the mc go back to its normal size from frames 6 to 10 and place this AS on frame 10:
stop();
Then go back to main stage and place this AS on the invisible button:

on (rollOver) {
tellTarget ("mc") {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}}
on (rollOut, dragOut) {
tellTarget ("button1") {
gotoAndPlay(6);
}}

this will make your movieclip tween nicely when cursor is over it & will make it shrink nicely when cursor moves off.

hope it helps

i tried the resize actions and it works once but when i mouse over and out again my image just changes back and forth without the tween.
