Once more into the breach Julian. Thanks.<br>
<br>
Thanks Johnathan.<br>
I think our setups are a little different, as I am starting the interaction
with one button hidden.<br>
<br>
Julian, re setting the state to get the same effect.<br>
Wouldn't it be the same issue? The button would have to be on stage before I
could apply state to it?<br>
