I looked at nick's fla which was helpful, but there are many questions i have that are unresolved because the buttons in that fla are much less complex ultimately than the above site:
first, instead of rollout and the menu changes back to its initial position, i want to keep the menu fixed as in the site above, where another button can be pressed and then the menu changes into its former position and then to the selected button position. how would i do this? you see, i am using actions that call into play certain frames, but there is always the problem of how to have two plays consectively. for instance, if i am in the principal menu all the buttons are the same size, i click on one button that becomes big while the others become smaller; i click on another button and i want it to become bigger, passing through the intial stage where all the buttons are the same. obviously this is easy to do for the second button since i can say go to frame 10 where it plays 10 through 15 going to the initial sizes and then 15 through 20 where 20 represents the second button as a large size and the rest as small. but then to do this with the third button where i would want to repeat 10 through 15 but then skip to frame 21, for a new resizing. do you follow? if you look at the site it will seem much easier...(make sure to skip the splash there...the menu is immediately after entering).
if anyone has an idea about how i can action script this, i would be greatly appreciative!
