I’m making a horizontal image scroller, with a bunch of icons inside of movie clips, these movie clips will be moving from side to side. what I want to do is determine a parameter such as an \_x coordinate and when a thumbnail reaches that point it enlarges and scales back down to a normal size once it has past the center point. I want each movie clip to do this however I do not know where to even begin… Could anyone out there help me get in the right direction?

How do I scale an image based on its \_x coordinate. In other words write a script that says, if object’s \_x is = to center Coordinate, enlarge.

Thanks
