i want to to have a scrollable fiel

[doog1]

i want to to have a scrollable field with numerous buttons - the basic idea is to have a selection of thumbnails that scroll left and right bringing up an enlarged version of the thumbnail when its clicked on, the only part i need to know is how to place all the thumbnails so that a left and right arrow moves them all ???

Any help would be most appreciated cheers doog

You place one thumbnail button in one sprite channel, then move all of them in one go. Say you have 100 thumbnail buttons placed in sprite channel 1 to 100. Then make a button called "left_button" and attach the following behaviour script:

--
on enterFrame me
  -- check if the button is pressed	
  if the mouseDown and the mouseMember = member("left_button") then
    -- check if thumbnails have leach the right limit
    if sprite(1).locH < 1200 then
      -- move all in one go
      repeat with i = 1 to 100
        sprite(i).locH = sprite(i).locH + 1
      end repeat
    end if
  end if
end enterFrame
