<DIV></DIV><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>I'm using button.swf for my Table of Contents
button, which is displayed over the status bar area. When using a framework,
the color of the framework navigation area shows through the button, so it
must have an alpha of less than 100. I want to force it to be fully
opaque.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>My button interaction has an id of tocButton, and
an rs property of tocButtonRs. The button interaction is perpetual, with a
script icon for the code below the interaction icon on the tree (not within
the interaction). I've tried the following statements to change the alpha
property, but without success.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>tocButtonRs._alpha = 100;</FONT> <BR><FONT
face=Verdana size=2>tocButtonRs.alpha = 100;</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Verdana
size=2>tocButton._alpha = 100;</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Verdana
size=2>tocButton.alpha = 100;</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>What would be the correct syntax for changing the
alpha? The ActionScript 1 reference indicates the syntax should be
movieClip._alpha = 100;</FONT></P>
