Part of a button unclickable?

[Jigganis]

Is there a way to make part of a button unclickable? I have a button with a graphic that appears in the over state and I want to know if there may be a way to make it unclickable (and therefore less annoying) with a line of code or two. Thanks for any help.

Well, I take it you've turned it into a button symbol, right?
If you've changed it to a movieclip symbol, I can't recall a way to do it.

But with buttons, double-clicking brings you to the inside, and there are various headings in the timeline. The last one (Hit) determines the hit area of the button. What you draw there cannot be seen, but determines what parts of the button are clickable.
