Metacard is great at putting together easy elements fast but the one thing
that I miss from Director 8 and others is the ability to make a reliable
roll-over. The hilite icon feature really does not hit the spot. I have
seen some scripts that rely on the hide show function...

Button script
on mouseEnter
hide image "click1.gif"
show image "click2.gif"
end mouseEnter

on mouseLeave
hide image "click1.gif"
show image "click2.gif"
end mouseLeave

However this script does not allow for a instance when the mouse enters a
button then leaves off screen. It will leave the image "rolled up". There
must be a more reliable way to create a roll-over effect in metacard.

Also for some of the people using 2.3 and trying to launch the browser to
move to a web page, I am using the externals collection to launch a page
that re-directs to the internet hosted page the same way you would launch a
document. I've heard that 2.4 does this better but really did not see the
details can someone respond to this post s
