On my page Im having a easing arrow that follows the  
mouse in the navigation.

In my first frame of the menu Mc Im using this script :

\_global.originalWidth = bar.\_width;  
bar.onEnterFrame = function() {  
this.\_x += (this.x-this.\_x)/10;  
};

And on the buttons Im using this script:

on (rollOver) {  
bar.x = Button1.\_x;  
bar.\_width = Button1.\_width+2;  
}

The problem is when I load the Mc the arrow begins in the  
center of the Mc. What can I do to make it start on the  
right side of the Mc ?

I’m not sure exactly but it sounds like you have to align everything in that mc so the x-position is 0 (the ‘Align Left Edge’ option within the Align window).  
I think everything is centered within the mc at the moment.
