Hi Brian-


Yes, make the graphic a 'button'.


The hit state only defines the area that will activate the button - afaik.

To cause it to do something when clicked, you have to 'Modify'>'Instance'

and define an action. So by not assigning an action, nothing will happen

when clicked.


On the 'Over' state, creating a movie clip there is a lot of fun! You can

basically do anything by putting a movie clip in the 'Over' state of a

button.


It's actually quite easy, once you start playing around with it :)

>(If) I have a graphic that I want to do something visually with when I run

the mouse over it, but not have it do anything when it's clicked - as in a

button - I'm assuming that I have to create it as I would if I was creating

a button... it's just that on the Hit state I don't tell Flash to do

anything with the click... is this correct? What exactly will I have to do

(or NOT do, as the case may be) here?
