Button on display item in RR

Hello:
My beta truckputer has been installed and I'm modifying the interface for easier operations. Is there a way, using the RRSkinEditor to place a button on a display item? Example: I have an image on the main screen (flash) and would like to use that space for the 'exit' as well as place a pause/resume button on the current playing song at the top of the display.
Thanks,
DNR

This depends on the Flash skin -- if it's an empty area or just a label/image, you can definitely place a "button" there (even if it doesn't look like a button).. there are good information on that in the skinning tutorials. But if you get lost, post a question and we'll definitely help you up..

There is also a neat little "trick" with buttons in Road Runner, that Liquid Smoke pointed out to me a few months back.

L,249,419,310,82,,,,,,"EXEC;PAUSE||=",

That line makes a blank label, but will function as a button would when the area is pressed. It will also work just about anywhere, over a flash object, visulization ect.

Thanks. I changed it to a normal image and it works great. Now I just have to try and get a button on top of the song title.
