Horizontal Image Scroll

[TeamXposure]

Hello

Disclaimer: New to AS and would love any help you could provide ... thanks.

Description: I have 8 images which need to scroll horizontally in a project. As they scroll off the page I need them to reset and begin to scroll again when it is their turn.

I am using the following AS to move them across the canvas:

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this.circle_mc._x < 550) {
this.circle_mc._x += 3;
}
if (this.square_mc._x < 550) {
this.square_mc._x += 3;
}

}

I obviously have no problem having them end off screen ... but how can I have them reset to the other side of the page and resume the above script?

Thanks again for any help ... if you need more information, please let me know.

-Scott

try this...

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this.circle_mc._x < 550) {
this.circle_mc._x += 3;
} else {
this.circle_mc._x = this.circle_mc._x * -1;

//if the circle's x position is 550, then 550 * -1 = -550. or you can put a zero instead of a -1, whatever works for what youre doing

}
if (this.square_mc._x < 550) {
this.square_mc._x += 3;
} else {
this.square_mc._x = this.circle_mc * -1;

//same concept as above

}
}
