Hey,

I just did this tutorial ‘Interactive Image Pan’

I completed it with succes, but my question:  
Is there a way to make it scroll slowly from the beginning, even before you start rolling over it with your mouse?

I dont want it to stand still when you start the movie.

This is the full Kirupa code:

> this.onMouseMove = function() { constrainedMove(bg\_mc, 4, 1); }; function constrainedMove(target:MovieClip, speed:Number, dir:Number) { var mousePercent:Number = \_xmouse/Stage.width; var mSpeed:Number; if (dir == 1) { mSpeed = 1-mousePercent; } else { mSpeed = mousePercent; } target.destX = Math.round(-((target.\_width-Stage.width)_mSpeed)); target.onEnterFrame = function() { if (target.\_x == target.destX) { delete target.onEnterFrame; } else { target.\_x += Math.ceil((target.destX-target.\_x)_(speed/100));}}; }
