[color=black]Hey All,[/color]

The coffee that I had today must have never kicked in as I am having difficulty getting something accomplished.

I would like to have an mc grow when the user’s mouse is over the mc. I can get it to increase instantly, but I want to see it gradually grow from 100% to 110%. If you are familiar with Mac OS X, the icons at the bottom grow when hovered over. I am trying to accomplish the same sort of thing. The initial state of the mc is 70%. I’ve turned the trouble script to red.

Thanks!

this.\_xscale = 70;  
this.\_yscale = 70;  
}[/color]  
[color=red][color=red]on(rollOver)[/color] {  
function growMovie(){  
var i:Number = 0;  
var grow:Number = 100;

while(i\<10){  
this.\_xscale = grow;  
this.\_yscale = grow;  
i++;  
grow += i;  
}  
}  
growMovie();  
}[/color]

[color=black]on(rollOut) {  
this.\_xscale = 70;  
this.\_yscale = 70;  
}[/color]
