I am new to Flash and I have read and played with a lot of tutorials and I understand Flash enough to make a basic button at this time. But I am having problems make a specific button for a website.
1. I want the button to be light grey and rectangular with a beveled edge. (300 x 90) to match my current background image.
2. I want the button to be 80% transparent in the UP stage except for the text which will be black.
3. I want the button to be the true color (non-transparent grey) in the OVER, DOWN, and HIT stage.
The problems I'm having is the Bevel comand doesn't give me the same results in Flash as in Photoshop. The beveled edges look really goofy no matter what settings I used. I tried to make my image in PS and bring the image in but I can't get the transparency to work b/c the transparency in the first stage caries over through all the stages. I can't set the transparency independently for each stage.
If Flash would create the beveled edge like I want this wouldn't be an issue but it's looks goofy when Flash does the bevel command.
Can someone help?
