Hey guys,

I followed a tutorial, in order to create this menu.

The problem is, when I change the screen size of the .fla to 800 x 600 and move my menu away from the corner of the screen, the menu slider doesn’t roll over my buttons properly.

I’m really new at Flash, so this is perhaps a simple glitch, but I can’t seem to figure it out.

Much appreciated if any help comes my way 🙂

I think when you move the whole thing you change the \_xcordinates you want it to move here is the fla att with a different position chekout the actions on the buttons  
hope this helps

Just another quick question - when you first open the .swf the slider is automatically sitting on the far left of the screen until the mouse enters the buttons.

How do I position where the slider is when first loaded?

try this:  
on the action layer in the firs frame type  
[AS]  
\_root.notmoving = true;  
[/AS]  
on the second frame actions layer in the top type:  
[AS]  
if(notmoving){  
\_root.mask.\_x = 500;//\<-- what ever xcordinate you want  
}  
[/AS]  
and on each of the buttons type :  
[AS]  
on(rollOver){  
\_root.notmoving = false;  
}  
[/AS]

that’ll do it
