Hi all! 🙂
I’ve searched around for an answer to this on the forums’ archives, but to no avail ☹
All i need to do is put a boundry for the infinite menu to stop at for the left and right.
This is my code from the tut:
[AS]
onClipEvent (load)
{
xcenter=150;
speed=1/10;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{
var distance=\_root.\_xmouse-xcenter;
\_x+=(distance\*speed);
if (\_x \> 0) \_x=-300;
if (\_x \< -300) \_x=0;
}
[/AS]
And if there is already a thread about boundries for the infinite menu…can you just direct me there? **Thanks so, so much!**
Johnny

Ok, ive decided to try something a little different.
Instead of the infinite menu, im going to be using buttons to move left and right.
So, on the left will be a button that moves the MC to the left, and vice versa for the button on the right.
On the left button, i have:
[AS]
on (rollOver) {
\_root.myMC.onEnterFrame = function(){
var left = 146;
var speed = 8;
if (\_root.myMC.\_x \>= left) {
this.\_x -= speed;
}
}
}
on (rollOut) {
delete \_root.myMC.onEnterFrame
}
[/AS]
This works at getting the MC to stop at 146 on the X axis. But, when i go to apply the code to my button on the right, it wont move to right.
What am i doing wrong? Please help :thumb:
