ActionScript 3 Button

In a previous tutorial, I demonstrated how to create a Movie Clip button in Flash. Movie Clips are much more flexible than Button Symbols, so it often makes more sense to use a Movie Clip and treat it as a Button. However, even the previous tutorial was a little limited in its possibilities in that it still relied heavily on the Timeline.

Broken apart, your selected text should look like this: Step 2 - Color Your Text – I'm going to apply...

DmC Devil May Cry

In this retelling of Dante's origin story which is set against a contemporary backdrop, DmC Devil May Cry™ retains the stylish action, fluid combat and self-assured protagonist that have defined the iconic series but inject a more brutal and visceral edge.

Dante knows that he is not human, but also that he is not like the demons that have tormented him throughout his life. Caught between worlds, he feels like an outcast. Thanks to his twin brother Vergil, leader of the anti-establishment group called “The Order”, Dante is now discovering and coming to terms with what it means to be the child of a demon and an angel. This split personality...
