I think its just onClipEvent(enterframe) sizing with a bit of easing…

I have my head wrapped around how to resize a MC with actionscript like on the site at [http://www.svizra.com/](http://www.svizra.com/)

I ran across another thread that made it crystal clear and simple with something like this:  
[AS]  
//set variables  
var endWidth = box.\_width;  
var endHeight = box.\_height;  
var speed = 4;  
//create function to easily change variables to resize box  
function resizeTo(w, h) {  
endWidth = w;  
endHeight = h;  
}  
//use the easing equation to resize the box…  
//…whenever the endWidth and endHeight variables change.  
box.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_width += (endWidth-this.\_width)/speed;  
this.\_height += (endHeight-this.\_height)/speed;  
};  
//use buttons to change the width and height.  
box.button1.onPress = function() {  
resizeTo(200, 100);  
};  
box.button2.onPress = function() {  
resizeTo(500, 300);  
};  
box.button3.onPress = function() {  
resizeTo(10, 10);  
};

[/AS]

What I can’t figure out are the buttons that are glued to the box’s corner as it’s scaled. (see the link above for an example of what I mean)

I would love to be enlightened. I can’t imagine this is too crazy, I just can’t figure it out. arg.

Thanks a lot, gang.

```auto
_x = 0-(box._width/2+_width)

```

get it?

I need to check my source, because I was pretty sure it did it :-\

Anyway, all you have to do is to set the position of the clip containing your menu to :  
position of the main clip + \_width of the main clip + a little something to give a little space.

pom 🙂
