NAME

       SWF::ButtonRecord - SWF Button Helper Class

SYNOPSIS

               use SWF::ButtonRecord;
               use SWF::Button;
               use SWF::Constants qw(:Button);
               # create button and a shape here..
               # and then:
               $buttonrecord = $button->addCharacter($my_shape, SWFBUTTON_DOWN);
               $buttonrecord->scale(0.5,0.5);
               $buttonrecord->move(50,50);

DESCRIPTION

       Adding a character shape to an object of SWF::Button class will give you access to an
       SWF::ButtonRecord object. This is useful for further changes by using the declared methods
       below. So SWF::ButtonRecord objects are a comparable counterpart to SWF::Displayitem
       objects. Just like them there is no constructor method available.

METHODS

       $buttonRecord->moveTo($x, $y)
           Move ButtonRecord to ($x, $y).

       $buttonRecord->move($x, $y)
           Displace ButtonRecord by ($x, $y).

       $buttonRecord->scaleTo($x ,$y)
           Set ButtonRecord scale to $x in the x-direction and $y in the y-direction.

       $buttonRecord->scale($x ,$y)
           Multiply ButtonRecord scale by $x in the x-direction and $y in the y-direction.

       $buttonRecord->rotateTo($degrees)
           Set ButtonRecord rotation to $degrees.

       $buttonRecord->rotate($degrees)
           Rotate ButtonRecord by $degrees.

       $buttonRecord->skewX($x)
           Add $x to the current x-skew.

       $buttonRecord->skewXTo($x)
           Set x-skew to $x. 1.0 is 45-degree forward slant. More is more forward while less is
           more backward.

       $buttonRecord->skewY($y)
           Add $y to the current y-skew.

       $buttonRecord->skewYTo($y)
           Set y-skew to $y. 1.0 is 45-degree upward slant. More is more upward while less is
           more downward.

       $buttonRecord->setDepth($depth)
           Set Z-order of ButtonRecord to $depth.

       $buttonRecord->setBlendMode($mode)
           Set an alternative blend mode instead of default alpha blend.  Possible modes are
           SWFBLEND_MODE_NORMAL, SWFBLEND_MODE_LAYER etc.

       $buttonRecord->addFilter($filter)
           Process the ButtonRecord object thru a prepared filter: an object of SWF::Filter
           class, e.g. BlurFilter or DropShadowFilter.  Filters are available since player
           version 8.
