Hi, I need with a menu witch has 5 buttons moving along an ellipse.

When I click on a button, I need to call an “arrow” movie clip, locate it BETWEEN the button being pressed AND center stage, and make sure it’s pointing toward the middle.

Much like the picture below:

I’ve spent the whole week trying to make it work but I guess I don’t know enough about AS2, or geometry to succeed on my own. Hope you can help.
