Sounds like you need a custom JSFL command. That would do it nicely.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] movieclips functioning as buttons
Hi Jason
It achieves what I'm trying to achieve, but it's a long way round as
I have
to edit each of the symbols to put in the labels and stop actions.
I was wondering if there was a property that could be set so that
Flash
would automatically use the first 4 frames of the movie clips as the 4
buttons states so there's no need to edit the symbols themselves.
The more I think about it, the more I think I'm making it up
though...

If you put the following frame labels inside 4 frames of a movie
clip:
_up, _over, _down, _hit
and put a stop action in each of those frames,
when you assign behaviors to the movie clip instance (i.e.
myMC.onRelease = function() ) the movie clip will act exactly like a
button. Is this what you mean?

Subject: [Flashcoders] movieclips functioning as buttons
Hi all
I've got a library of button symbols that I want to be movieclips
so
I can
link them to an as2 class.
I can obviously convert all the symbols to movieclips in the
library,
and
the button states are retained as frames inside the clip, however
the
movieclip continually loops through the frames (as would be
expected).
One way of fixing this is to execute a stop() action as soon as
the
movieclip loads, but I thought it was possible to somehow flag a
movieclip
as a button instead so that it automatically treats each of the 4
frames as
the 4 button states? Or have I been dreaming again...
Thanks in advance
