Usage

`myMovieClip``.enabled`

Description

Property; a Boolean value that indicates whether a button movie clip is enabled. The default value of `enabled` is `true`. If `enabled` is set to `false`, the button movie clip's callback methods and `on` `action` events are no longer invoked and the Over, Down, and Up frames are disabled. The `enabled` property does not affect the Timeline of the button movie clip; if a movie clip is playing, it continues to play. The movie clip continues to receive movie clip events (for example, `mouseDown`, `mouseUp`, `keyDown`, and `keyUp)`.

The `enabled` property only governs the button-like properties of a button movie clip. You can change the `enabled` property at any time; the modified button movie clip is immediately enabled or disabled. The `enabled` property can be read out of a prototype object. If `enabled` is set to `false`, the object is not included in automatic tab ordering.
