Hi - the hit area (the clickable area) over the thumbnails (50w x 40h) in the gallery.swi seems to be too small: 1/4 or 1/3 of the full thumbnail from x.0/y.0

Is there a way to adjust this? (make it bigger / same size as the thumbnail image).

See the issue demonstrated here. (Click on 'gallery' menu item to view gallery).

Thanks.

It's very strange. The buttons are indeed the same size as the image (50x40) - but the 'active' area (the area on the button that is clickable) seems to be only 1/4 of the area (25 x 20 starting at x0/y0). When I double the size of the button (to 100 x 80) then the entire image / button is clickable. Is there code somewhere that specifies the clickable area of the button?

I've tried looking at the (section4) swf in a IE8 and FireFox 3.5.8 and exporting in a few different versions of SWF (7 & 8) - and the clickable area appears consistant (1/4 of the area or 25 x 20 instead of 50 x 40).

You can see here - that I have adjusted the button size of button1 on gallery1 to be 100 x 80 (double the original size) and now the entire area of the image (but still 1/4 of the button) is clickable. The other buttons (2 - 9) are still 50 x 40 and only have the 1/4 portion of the button (image) clickable).

section4.swi file attached.

Hmmm. When I run the section4.swf in a flash player (Macromedia 8) - the buttons indeed have a full hit area (50x40). But when I run the section2.swf as part of the uploaded site (here, the hit area is only 25x20 (1/4 of the area starting from upper left). I'll have to keep looking I guess.
