I am trying to animate an object in actionscript and am having a little trouble. Here is the scenario:
On the root timeline, there is a movie clip instance named main_mc. Inside of main_mc I have an small object with an instance name of frameUL_mc (this is positioned at X: 215 and Y: -45). When I roll over main_mc I want the frameUL_mc object to move to postion X: 175 and Y: -5). When I roll out of main_mc, I want it to slowly move back to its original position (X: 215 and Y: -45). I want to control frameUL_mc from frame 1 of the main timeline and not actionscript on the movie clip or motion tweening inside the frameUL_mc timeline. I would like to add easing and a variable to control the speed but that is not as important as getting the animation to work.
I did use the motion tween on the frameUL_mc timeline and used gotoAndPlay to different states of the movie clip (using frame labels). But when I rolled off then rolled back on too quick, the movie got all screwie on me.
Can anyone please help.
Thanks… Bubba
