It’s simple stuff, really, except it’s done so perfect that I looks totally awesome. But it’s not mad actionscript at all, don’t worry.

The main idea is this : You have a background containing your menu. So far so good.  
On top of that, you have 2 layers, one being the mask of the other : you menu again, masked by a rectangle that you can drag, so that you can see the menu only when your mouse is rolling over it. Makes any sense ?

I’l try and make an example for you (a tutorial, maybe ?)

OK, here’s a very good example of how it works :  
[www.flashkit.com/tutorial…ndex.shtml](http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Actionscripting/Flash_5_-Pure_Mor-588/index.shtml)  
Not so easy though. If you have problems, post.
