This is a problem that has always plagued me, and I usually end up just using the timeline to get around it, but this time I want to do it properly!

The situation is, I have a partially masked MC that on (rollOver) tweens to be fully revealed. on (rollOut) does the opposite, hiding it again.

What I can never manage to do is put buttons inside the revealing MC. Even a simple test like trace(this) does nothing. I think it's because the (rollOver)/(rollOut) script on the parent of the button is conflicting with the event being sent by the child. The mouse cursor certainly remains the same (finger) over the whole revealed shape.

Now I'm sure that most of you gurus out there don't use the timeline to get around this problem, so what do you do?

I'd really appreciate any help on this, thanks.
