I've added some sounds to my project and have just discovered that with SetSpriteActive(mySprite, 0) and SetSpriteVisible(mySprite, 0) I'm still getting results from a GetSpriteHitTest(). In my program I was adding sound to a menu and ended up getting mouse-over sounds with it hidden.

Not a big deal for me to add a check to make sure its visible when I'm looking for the GetSpriteHitTest(), but can I ask is this expected and GetSpriteHitTest() will always return a result regardless of active or visible? Thanks!

Try SetSpriteShapeBox( id, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 )

yes, where:
Quote: "SetSpriteActive
Sets whether this sprite updates its animation and physics every frame, the sprite may be visible or not, which is controlled by SetSpriteVisible. "

so, not sure you need to use that at all.

then:
Quote: "GetSpriteHitTest
Returns 1 if the point x,y in world coordinates lies within the sprite, 0 if not."

and, that's all it does - determines whether or not a point lies within a sprite's shape, rotated or not, whether its visible or not, etc.
