Question
Hi Arvind,

...tell me something...when i'm creating buttons using 3 different graphics(3 different states)...sometime i'm having like a "shadow button", offset by few pixels up and left...looks like a shadow image using "add pin" ink but there is only one member on the stage...and be sure that i've did my homework few times re-coding, preloading,updatingstage, etc...what's is happening? Thank!

Answer
Hi Jesse,
Sorry for the late reply, I've been at work all weekend!

Anyway, the only thing I can think of is that the button that is offset, has an extra pixel(s) in the cast member.  Check out the cast member of that particular troublesome sprite and see if theres any pixels to the bottom and right of it.  If there is, rub them out using the rubber tool, or just delete them to the same background colour.

Play your movie again, and see if theres any diffrence.

Hope that helps...


Arvind
