How do I get started implementing this feature?

The dragging of the continuous image gallery is like nothing I have seen before. Would like to learn how to do this. Any help, hints, URLs, tutorials would be appreciated.

Hey Scotty,

Good to hear from you. I have heard it called inertia and acceleration but is the easing controlled by setProperty and getProperty and old a new x and y? I looked all around before posting. I thought this would be a common item but apparently not.

Thanks for the reply,

I looked and read the easing archived forum threads but can’t seem to understand how to apply it to a horizontal MC. I was looking at Prenner’s easing but if it takes this much advanced knowledge to do this then I might just let this one go.

I just like its uniqueness of the scroll.

Thanks,
