Nooooooob question regarding calculating ditances

Hi.

I’m a begginer in flash, so what I am about to ask may seem a bit stupid.
I’ve been experimenting with the kirupa calculating distance tutorial: changing the code here and there. What i was hoping to create (sortof), is a duplikate of the mac. objectbar at the bottom of the screen. I was hoping to do this using the tutorial so the closer you get, the larger the circles get. I’ve done that, (quite successsfully i thought), now what i’ve been trying do do is that thing, that on the rollover, (as some of the objects on the objectbar get bigger), the ones on the side spread out.

I’ve attempted quite a few things, which turned out to be COMPLETELY wrong, as they messed up the whole thing.

So please just have a look at the fla attached and see if you could help me on my quest.

Thanks,:smiley:
