That's great Ned, that has sorted the arrow symbol for each of the movie clip shapes!
Still the problem of the links not working in Articulate though (essentially Microsoft Powerpoint slides packaged together).
As i said, i think it's something to do with the movieclip button functionality, rather than just force removing the handcursor.
One of those beautiful Flash moments where one small detail leaves you pulling your hair out

That's probably right Ned, damn.
The other code i posted up though is a working Flash file someone im workign with has used in the past. That code allows the clear buttons to work over the top of the Flash but still uses the hover colour change of the Flash code.
Here it is again -
for(var x = 1; x < 8; x++)
{
var currentBut = eval("but"+x);
currentBut.onMouseMove = function(){
if(this._xmouse > 0 && this._xmouse < this._width && this._ymouse > 0 && this._ymouse < this._height){
this.gotoAndStop(2);
}
else
{
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
};
}
If you guys can't help then i'm definitely re-thinking it

Sorry, it's a confusing problem
To strip this down...
I'd like to see if there was a way of removing any 'button' (clickable) functionality from my movieclips. So they are not usable at all, but still are effected when hovered.
I think this is what is interfering with the Articulate usability.
The last code i posted is a working code i received from a colleague doing the same thing. He has made everything in Flash and bundled it into Articulate in the same way and his works correctly. eg his flash objects dont block the Articulate links.
There is no issue with Articulate, it is just something i need to edit in the Flash code. Essentially making the objects unusable (there purely as images) which indicate when hovered.
I'm hoping the codes i have provided will lead to an answer.
Thanks guys, sorry if this makes no sense it's hard to explain as i'm not an expert.

Thanks kglad, i hope we're on the right track!
This is the code im using and there doesn't appear to be a onRelease or onPress handle etc.
var tl:MovieClip=this;
for(var i = 1; i < 30; i++){
tl["mc"+i].ivar=i;
tl["mc"+i].onRollOver=function(){
tl["but"+this.ivar].gotoAndStop(2);
}
tl["mc"+i].onRollOut=function(){
tl["but"+this.ivar].gotoAndStop(1);
}
}
The code my colleague sent me that does work is as follows, do you think it could be HOW the code is written eg there must be a hand full of ways to do this type of thing and maybe i've just gone down the wrong route with the tl["but"+... etc?
for(var x = 1; x < 8; x++)
{
var currentBut = eval("but"+x);
currentBut.onMouseMove = function(){
if(this._xmouse > 0 && this._xmouse < this._width && this._ymouse > 0 && this._ymouse < this._height){
this.gotoAndStop(2);
}
else
{
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
};
}
I think this shall be my last attempt
It seems to be confusing everyone
