Hi Juan, I've had a look at the example and I've got it working. But myself and my designer are struggling to get the over state working when the overstate is larger than the normal state.
e.g. If you had a button that normally looks like this: |----------| |----------| In the over state I want it to expand (with animation) to be like this: |--------------------| | | |--------------------| Do you know how this can be done? The example works great when the symbols are the same size, but my designer is struggling when it's got to animate larger. Any tips greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mark ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of scalenine Sent: 16 November 2007 17:06 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Animated overSkin (how to use more than one frame of a symbol) Hi Mark, Using the Flex Component Kit and Flash CS3 you can do what you're looking for. I just wrote a tutorial about using the FCK to create a "stateful" skin with transitions. You can read it here : http://tinyurl.com/yoxqcq <http://tinyurl.com/yoxqcq> . The tutorial describes how to make a basic transition, but you could easily elaborate on it to do what you're looking for. Hope that helps.
