a script that does this:  
movieClip clicked = start drag  
if it is dragged to the LEFT 100pixels it stops drag and scrolls to the left that is -800pixels if it is dragged to the RIGHT 100pixels it stops drag it scrolles +800pixels.

movieClip on release = stop drag  
it returns to its position before dragging.

I made this so far (DOESN’T WORK):

```auto
stop();
background.onPress = function () {
    if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse)) {
        this.startDrag();
        }
    mouseX= _xmouse;
    onMouseMove = function () {
    mouseX2 = mouseX - _xmouse;
    if (mouseX2 > 100) {
    this.stopDrag();
    _root.lokacija1 = _root.background.targetx = background._x - Stage.width;
    mouseX= 0;
    mouseX2 = 0;
    play();
    } else if (mouseX2 < -100) {
    this.stopDrag();
    _root.lokacija1 = _root.background.targetx = background._x + Stage.width;
    mouseX = 0;
    mouseX2 = 0;
    play();
    }
    }
}

background.onRelease = function () {
    if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse)) {
        this.stopDrag();
        delete (mouseX2);
        mouseX = 0;
        mouseX2 = 0;
        }
}

```
