HI All,

Newbie here so kindly bear with me…I am working on this project that involves a lot of visualmapping(think of mapquest), a real crash course I got meself into here but that’s hardly the point.

I want to be able to do the following:  
a. load a movie from within an Index animation via menu and have the user interact with the map. I want to achieve pan,zoom, and pretty much just show a portion of the map at any point in time. Help, please…

b. Since there are different maps should I just have one movie with Map Layers so to speak, what are the benefits in doing it this ways vs say having x number of movies for each map.

That’s the lot for now good people. Any help would be most appreciated…

ciao for now…
