So I’m relatively new with Flash, though I pick up things pretty quickly and I’m more than persistent when trying to work out problems and kinks.
Here’s what I’m trying to do, and I’m not sure what the best way to achieve this effect is:
I have a 400 x 500 px (w x h) document with background things.
I have a 300 x 150 px area of text.
I want an arrow button in the lower right corner of the text area.
What I want this button to do is, once clicked, horizontally slide the current text out of the area and replace it with new text sliding in, like the new text is almost bumping or sliding the old text off the screen.
The catch is, I want the text to slide out and in confined to the text area box and not the entire document, and of course this effect should happen only upon button click and I would also like it to slide the old text back and bump out the newer text when clicked again (to bring it back to it’s original state).
How might I go about doing this?
