I am looking to make a continuous cicular movement menu. the buttons will revolve around the center of the movie and with mouse overs come to a slow stop… i have no clue how to do this…any help would be great. thanks in advance.

I created this little thing a few months ago, I think it is exactly what you’re looking for. 🙂

Yeah, just put all your buttons inside the movie clip called _menu_. 😉

[edit]  
Forgot to mention something…

Use movie clips instead of buttons, otherwise the code will not recognize them and the effect will fail…

Or replace this line within the _rotate_ function:

```auto
if (this[prop] instanceof MovieClip) {

```

With this one:

```auto
if (this[prop] instanceof Button) {

```

[/edit]

By acceleration you actually means speed? If so, decrease the parameter max. Else, decrease the acceleration parameter.
