I have a picture. And I made two changes to it. And basically what I want to do is to have the user try and find those changes with his/her mouse. by clicking on the screen. And when they find it then a circle should appear around the change. Now my question is, how do I have those circles stay hidden until the user clicks on them?

Which version of Flash are you using? MX?

yes MX and I don't really know much. I'm trying to learn it as I go.


I was able to create the ovals and get both pictures up. now I guess I have to work on the "behind the scenes" stuff.

I wish I did more work in flash. But what you're trying to do I think should be as simple as putting a mouseDown variable in the script for the object or scene. I dont have it right in front of me unfortunately, so I cant show you exactly. If nobody has posted later, I will try and help you out when I'm in front of it :)

yeah I kinda figured that I would have to use the mouseDown or a press variable on it. but I am not absolutely sure how to do so. any help would be much much appreciated.
