Infinite Scrolling

programming flash

Hi People,

I want scroll a seemless graphic symbol horizontally forever. I know abou the tutoral on kirupa.com but it includes code to resize the clip according to the mouse positon. i dont want this, I just want it to scroll on and on. Its a cartoon sea that looks like its waves are moving if scrolled. More size efficient then animating the wave by hand. How can I do this?

Thanks

one bug


onClipEvent (load) {
	speed = -5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	_x += speed;
	if (_x<-550) {
		_x = -1; // <---------------------- should be "speed" ( _x = speed); !!! 
	}
}

Excellent, thats really cool. Seems my sea image is popular = )

Quite right too, only spent 2 hours on it…!!

If anyone is intrested oin how it was created, with 3D Studio MAX 4.0, Seascape plugin, with a 4 ink level toon shader.

I still cant make this work!! The banner is 960, so I made a new movie clip and imported my jpeg into it. Then i copied it and moved it to the end of the previous one, so that it was twice the width and seemless. then went back to the main stage and added the actionscript to the clip, and changed the 550 to 960. thought that would work, but no luck.

Help!! thanx!

Your stage should also be 960 pixels width.
