Pat,
Thanks, this is one of the ways I have been trying. Two things are wrong:
1. If the mouse is down then messages are still sent to the original control that took the mouseDown and it tries to highlight
2. This only highlights the button or sets the color to blue when moved within it but after leaving it leaves behind the blue.
I might have to stick with the Hover approach using the within message. But our Director guy was able to do it in Director and since I am duplicating that work in Rev it is a shame I won't be able to. I will have to explain that Rev just can't do it.
Thanks again to all,
Tom

Just another thought, you can use - if the mouse is "down"
for example as in the following (a bit sloppy scripting but it does work OK)
on mouseMove if the mouse is "down" then repeat with i = 1 to 4 if the mouseLoc is within the rect of btn i then set the backgroundcolor of btn i to "blue" end if end repeat end if end mouseMove
Correction to my previous mail I should have said you can get mouseStillDown if the handler is in the script of the target btn.

Tom,
You can get mouseStillDown if it's in the target btn and also you can always get the mouseloc. A bit of fiddling with these two should get you what you want.

Subject: mouseDown and within
Hello all,
I have a few buttons and when the mouse is down over a button the background turns blue. This is good. Now I want to have the other buttons turn blue by still holding the mouseDown but moving it over the other buttons and when it is over them that they will act like a mouseDown has been sent to them.
I have tried mouseDown, mouseStillDown, mouseWithin, mouseEnter etc.
No luck,
I might be able to do a mouseOver (SC) but prefer the mouseDown if possible.
Does anyone know a way to do this????
Thanks in advance....
Tom
