I worked through Kirupa’s “Simple Custom Scrollbar” tutorial and successfully adjusted it to fit some of my content. Then I put it in a movieclip.
I was hoping I could just go into each new instance of that movie clip, put in new content and be good to go. Unfortunately, when I edit the content inside my movie clip it edits the content of all the scrollbars in my timeline.
I tried renaming the instance “contentMain” to “contentMain2” in a second movie clip, that I also gave a unique instance name to, and adjusting the actions to match, but that still ended up renaming it in the other the scrollbars in my timeline as well as adjusting it in the actions of all the scrollbars.
I’m not amazing at Flash, so I think I’m missing something very simple to fix this. I hope it is simple.
While searching for a solution, I saw this other thread, which seems related:
It suggested renaming the instances, at least that is how I understood it. Which what I attempted to do above. Do I just not know how to rename instances right?
Any help would be very, very appreciated.
