Author Buttons on Stage Show up over Mouseover MC

I have a simple setup with 10 buttons on a map.
When you click on a button it is set to open an external link.
When you mouseover the button, it brings up a box with the address in it.

The problem is, when you mouseover a button, the other buttons on the stage
appear on-top of the mouseover address.
I haven't had a problem like this with Flash 6, but this is Flash MX 2004.

Any advice would be a great help!
Are there any preferences that I can turn on & off?

hey,

this is something to do with swapdepths. if you have ur tool tip inside the
button on "over" state, then arrange the buttons (depths) accordingly (move to
front or back) so that it doesnt overlaps others.

hope this helps. if not plz send the url of ur swf.

from what i understand you are placing the "address" movie clip inside the
button on the "rollover" kf.. instead place the movieclip on the scene.. e.g:
if the movieclip "address1" and in them let the first kf be blank (and use
"stop()"). then for the button, use this...
on (rollOver) {
tellTarget("_root.address1"){
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
}

hope this helps!
