I want to create a movieClip Button with a script that, when I Click & Drag on it left to right, it will scrub through the timeline of another movieClip. The effect I’m going for is simular to scrubing slowly on a Quicktime Movie to see each frame of the video. Now I’m not talking about controlling an FLV or anything, I want to control the timeline of a movieClip that has been loaded onto the stage. Also, it’s OK if I can only scrub forward and not backwards. This is for a flash website.

Any ideas or examples for scripts?:puzzled:
