Rollovers are interactive objects that change in appearance when you click or point to them. You can create rollovers using objects.

To create a rollover, you add the following rollover states:

• Normal — the default state of a button when no mouse activity is associated with the button
• Over — the state of a button when the pointer passes over it
• Down — the state of a clicked button

You can apply different object properties to each of the rollover states. You can also preview the rollover states.
