Which button state indicates that the user has clicked the button?

The DOWN button state signifies that the user has clicked the button. In Adobe Animate, buttons have different states that reflect user interaction. When a user clicks a button, the DOWN state is activated to provide feedback that the button has been pressed. This visual change typically indicates to the user that their action has been recognized.

The UP button state occurs when the button is not being interacted with, while the OVER state shows when the mouse pointer is hovering over the button. The HIT state defines the clickable area of the button but does not represent the interaction itself. Therefore, the DOWN state is the only one that specifically indicates the action of clicking.
