  1. Delete the slice or hotspot covering the rollover images.

  2. Select Show All States from the Onion Skinning menu in the States panel.

  3. Select all the objects you want to include in the button. Use the Select Behind tool to select hidden objects.

  4. Select Modify > Symbol > Convert to Symbol.

  5. Enter a name for the symbol in the Name box and select a Button symbol type.

    To convert four-state animations to buttons, select all four objects to place each on its own button state.
