hey!

I’m trying to make an object (MC) move, when rolling over a button! I got 2 buttons, one to get the object to move up, and one to get it to move down!

I found this code:

```auto
onClipEvent (load) {
	amount = 5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	if (_root._ymouse>350 && this._y>"-100") {
		this._y -= amount;
	}
	if (_root._ymouse<180 && this._y<"630") {
		this._y += amount;
	}
}

```

it’s the same function I’m looking for, where I can define the limit for the movement, but I can’t quite figure out how to apply the function to the buttons, so the object only moves when rolling over the buttons!?..

I’d do it the other way around: when you rollover the button, it tells the clip to move:

```auto
on (RollOver) {
    _root.yourClip._x+=10;
}

```

Or something like that.

Cheers.

THX, I’m getting there…

but I can’t get the MC to move smoothly, I want it to move until it reach a specific limit, and then stop!..?

Dynamic callback functions, man. I tried to explain it in the AS tricks section. Check it and if you are still clueless, post back.
