Hi all,

I’m new to all of this and really rather suck at actionscript. I can mostly understand it but I can’t write it!

Basically I am trying to make a VERY simple image viewer using a slider bar to navigate through the movie clip frames. I have been searching for hours for a nice simple tutorial or fla file but I cant find one. The movie clip currently has 8 frames each one an image, but it may have more or less.

I don’t want to create movie clips inside movie clips; rather I have created a button which is fixed to slide along a 400px line. I would like to know what on earth I write to link the movement of the slider button to the frames in the movie clip… for example the first image would be displayed when the slider button is between 0 and 50 pixels of the line upon which it slides.

Does this make sense?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!! 🙂
