Hey all,

I have a simple one for ya. I was trying to scroll my ball\_mc along the x-axis, but everytime I test it, the mc just moves to the final location…there is no scrolling effect.

I want to do this on one frame of the timeline AND I don’t want to use the setInterval function. I can make it work with setInterval, but figure there has to be another way to make this work.

Thanks.

\*\*Code below:

\*\*[COLOR=Blue]var ball\_mc:MovieClip;

for(var i:Number = 0; i\<20; i++){  
ball\_mc.\_x = ball\_mc.\_x + i;

} [/COLOR]
