Hi Guys,

I am a grad student working on a floor planner project. I am fairly new to Flash and action script as a whole, and would like to know how one can write a script that allows users to rescale/resize and rotate movie clip objects at runtime. I.e. When a user moves their cursor over an object on the floor plan, I would like for them to be able to either resize the object or rotate it.

After trawling the web, I am still yet to find an existing API that I can use to build my floor planner in Flash. However, I did stumble across the ‘Space planner’ created by Icovia for architects and interior designers alike. If you visit the icovia web site at [http://www.icovia.com/](http://www.icovia.com/), and click on ‘Test Drive’ under Interior design and Home renovations section, you will see what I envisage for my project.

However, all I would like to know for now is how I can manipulate objects on the floorplan using action script.

Many Thanks
