hi

i am a beginer in flash but am wondering how to make a navigation bar in the following way.  
Say u have 4 links next to each other when u rollover one, the button changes colour, but as you rollover the others the one that was previously selected and changed colour, instead of deselecting follows ur mouse cursor to the next butto depending if you are moving left or right???

so the rollover basically stays lit up and moves either left or right to the other links depending on the mouse. Havnt got the slightest idea as i am a beginner but would really like to figure this out.

Kash

If I’m understanding you correctly you should lookup a tutorial on _object following mouse_ then just make the object a mask and put it in the menu are.
