[color=#003366]objective: continuous scroll of GIF while mouse button is depressed[/color]

[color=#003366]problem: i can only get the movement-command to run once per click  
(instead of a continuous execution on mousedown)[/color]

[color=#003366]  
here’s my code and FLA

* * *

onClipEvent(mouseDown) {

speed =1  
\_root.blue\_scroll.\_y += -speed;

}

* * *

with sincere thanks,
