  I have created a pretty standard flash product bar that allows you to flip through product (books). Currently the books scale when you hover over them, but I also need to add a hover bubble that gives additional info about the book.

  I can't seem to find anything online or through the filter here. Seems like it should be simple. Anyone know the easiest way to do this?

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  just use _visible=true; or _visible=false; and create a bubble mc with some dynamic text that you can drop in for each book.

  make sense?

  • doesn't have to be dynamic text, but then you can use the same bubble mc for every book.– lvl_131/2

    and just put the dynamic text in your on(rollOver) command for each book.– lvl_132/2
