Hi, guess this should be easy :cowbell: I have a scrollbar which is using a mask to work, then i have image thumbnails as a movieclip to scroll. The thumbnails are buttons that loads swfs into an empty movieclip on the stage using the loadClip.

My problem is that i cant get the loaded swfs outside the mask and the scroller, they load inside the mask and starts to scroll - as my movieclip with the thumbs are inside the mask.

Anyone know how to load the swfs outside the mask/scroller? Or how i can solve this in any other way?
