zoom problem

[SlayerRo]

hi.. can someone help me with a script problem?
where's what i need to figure out ( ) with our help...
i my progect i have a picture galary and i need a script or something for a controlded zoom on one picture. let's say the picture has ( in full version ) 1024*768 (the project is for 800*600) and on mouse click on thumb a part of that picture is diplayed.. and in that sprite i have some navigation tools to move throug the picture...i know it can be done but just dont know how
Ohh...and another problem ( ), i know how to make a thumb enlarge on mouse enter, but can the thumb have 30% transperancy and on mouse enter it changes to 100% ?
THX for taking you time to read this and any ideea is welcome.. this is my first project in director so i'm a noob in using it. Thx again

I didn't understand very well your first problem but for the second one, just attach the following behaviour to the sprite:

[tt]-- Sprite Behaviour
on beginSprite me
sprite(me.spriteNum).blend = 30
end beginSprite

on mouseEnter me
sprite(me.spriteNum).blend = 100
end mouseEnter

on mouseLeave me
sprite(me.spriteNum).blend = 30
end mouseLeave
--[/tt]

First of all, thx for second problem solution... Now in my first problem i'm talking about a zoom with some sort of control ( from the user ) on a picture.. let's say i have a big picture, like ... 2000*1000, but the director project is 800*600..ok... in a foto galery i have a thumb nail of the large picture.. on mouse click on thumb nail i'm telling director to go on a sprite where the bigger picture is not displayed in full, it's on a detail level of the picture( let's say 50% of it , and i have some sort of control with the mouse do make a navigation through the rest of it , and i let the user move to whatever part he wants, to see more details of that picture). i need to know how can i make some sort of navigation ( in - out ) of that picture ( something like internet explorer with pictures opened in a new window, at the bottom of that picure there's a buton for zoom ) ... i dont know how to explain this any other way ... THX AGAIN KENNETH

and another question ( ) regarding transperancy.... how can i apply that code ( the one above ) to another button and have the same efect on the thumb nail.. i did something like this :
in a text area i've hidden a button with this behavior :

on mouseEnter
go to frame 215
end mouseEnter
on mouseLeave
go to frame 200
end mouseLeave

so i have 2 frames "215 and 200"... on frame 200 the thumb nail has 30% transperancy and at 215 it has 100% .. what i need to know is a shorter way to do this, coz i have like 300 pictures that will have a behavior like this one. THX

If you mean you want to change the blend of a sprite other than itself on rollover, just do:

-- Sprite Behaviour
on beginSprite me
sprite(1).blend = 30
end beginSprite

on mouseEnter me
sprite(1).blend = 100
end mouseEnter

on mouseLeave me
sprite(1).blend = 30
end mouseLeave
--

In this example sprite(1) is the one you want to change the blend.
