hi,

I am working on a project for which I ahve followed a tutorial form kirupa  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/rotation\_center.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/rotation_center.htm)

This is made using one movieclip, I have modified the script a little so as to make each sphere a button of its own…

now wats happening… I have all the spheres rotating around a common center and on roll over of the sphere the color changes. on rollout it resumes to the same…

But now the issue is… I want the rotation to come to a standstill wen I rollover any MC and resume rotation wen I rollout of them…  
How do I achieve this?

Please find the attahced fla.  
Help me out of this please…

thanks in advance  
Sam

Well its simple. Use tell target

On (rollover)  
tellTarget(\_root.mc){  
Stop();  
}

If you still didnot understand lemme take a work around with you FLA

Cheers
