Hello everyone!!, How can I put together a nav. bar like the one in the site below? I am talking about the one that looks like folders sliding up on mouse over. I greatly appreciate your replies…:ear: [http://www.gavindegraw.com/](http://www.gavindegraw.com/) ---

could be done using a mask and an onmouseOver animation ---

If you had 5 kids too, there is a good possibility you’d get a brain freeze. LOL ---

Great work hga77, however I like to be able to get the effect using the mask and on mouseover. I can control things better that way because I don’t have enough knowledge of ac. So, if it is possible please give me an example with a different approach. Thank you. ---

I dont understand what you mean by saying “onMouseOver”? That is exactly how it works now anyway (ie. if you mouse-over the tab, it shows up!). As for the mask, give me a minute… ---

I was talking about achieving the effect through animations, whether use of mask or having the movement in another frame and using something like: on mouseover goto and play(2). I hope I didn’t make things even more confusing. ---

well in that case I would have to do the entire thing again…I dont have the time at the mo…sorry If you wanna use the current code, its not that hard to add a mask! And the code should also be easy to understand…And its better to use AS than tweens…you can control the movement much better. Learn AS 😉 ---

I’ve been trying to learn AC, but it takes time to get good at it and apply what I have learned. There is no hurry – besides, someone else might respond too. If you get free time later, maybe you can do that for me. Thanks a lot.
