Button Clicks and All That Jazz

[ LiB ]

Buttons are especially fun things to create. They serve many purposes, and you can do a lot with them to add flare. One way to add flare to a button is to have it respond with sound as the user interacts with it.

Go to the Timeline of any button symbol and create a new layer called "Sound." Create a keyframe on the sound layer at the "Down" frame. With that keyframe selected, drag a sound from your Library onto the Stage. Test your movie, and you'll see that anytime you click the button, your sound will play. You could also move the sound from the Down frame to the Over frame to have sound play when you roll over the button.

There's not much to it, and the right sound effects on a site can make all the difference.
